From Old World Christmas. The Elephant has been the symbol of the Republican Party since 1874 when political cartoonist Thomas Nast showed an Elephant trampling on inflation and chaos - indicating a party favoring economic conservation and law and order. The Elephant is strong, dignified, and intelligent. This glass elephant ornament has a silvery gray color and is rearing up in defiance, representing the Republican's general demeanor towards politics.
