"In Memoriam—Our Civil Service As It Was"
This Harper's Weekly cartoon (1877), depicting civil service as it was under Andrew Jackson, shows President Jackson riding a giant pig; the words, "bribery," "fraud," "spoils," and "plunder," as well as the phrase, "To the victors belong the spoils. A. Jackson" are engraved underneath.
