Title devised by cataloguer from information provided on image.; Part of the Pryor collection of cartoons and drawings.; Published in the Canberra Times on 24th October 1998.; Also available in an electronic version via the Internet at: http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn4401567. The Howard Government is re-elected in 1998 and makes 'practical reconciliation' the cornerstone of its Indigenous affairs policy.
