The day after Whitelaw Reid’s Tribune editorial prompted Nast to add
“We Are on the Home Stretch!” to his “Tidal Wave” cartoon title, a letter
appeared in The New York Times (October 10), which provided Nast with the
germ of another cartoon: “The New-York Tribune of this morning says, ‘We
are on the home stretch, and confident of success.’ True! H. G. is going home
to Chappaqua [New York], and has every prospect of reaching there.” |
