EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful propaganda cartoon by W.E. Jones, titled "Rent, Profit and Interest," depicts three plump gentlemen representing the exploitative forces of Rent, Profit, and Interest, supported by two sweating miners. The scene takes place in an upper-class campaign setting, with the gentlemen dressed in suits and hats, while the miners, representing the working class, are shown in their colliery hats and covered in sweat. The Miners Union is not explicitly mentioned, but the message is clear: the upper class, represented by Rent, Profit, and Interest, is exploiting the working miners for their own gain. The cartoon is a poignant reminder of the class struggle and the unequal distribution of wealth during the industrial revolution in Wales. The miners, who were the backbone of the coal industry, were often subjected to long hours, low wages, and dangerous working conditions. The gentlemen, on the other hand, lived in luxury, reaping the profits of the miners' labor. The image is a historical representation of the political and industrial climate of the time, with Marxist ideas beginning to gain traction as a means of challenging the capitalist system. The miners, who were organizing through trade unions, were fighting for their rights and seeking to level the playing field. W.E. Jones created this cartoon for his father to use while campaigning for support for the Miners Union. The sweating miners, with their determined expressions, serve as a visual reminder of the human cost of exploitation and the need for workers' rights. The cartoon is a powerful tool that continues to resonate with audiences today, as issues of inequality and class struggle remain relevant in contemporary society.
