Description: An unhappy-looking Native American, with a sign hanging around his neck saying “THIS IS THE NOBLE RED MAN.” stands on a bureau with an unhappy expression on his face. On either side of him are doors. The left door is labeled “INTERIOR DEPARTMENT” and in front of it stands U.S. Secretary of the Interior Carl Schurz, hands in pocket, with a serious expression on his face. On the right is a door labeled ”WAR DEPARTMENT“ with an equally serious looking General Philip Sheridan standing in front of it and in back of it General William Tecumseh Sherman peers out from the left. Schurz and Sheridan eye each other resolutely.
