Fat Cat (1925)

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

   The HDAS has 1928 for "fat cat," "a wealthy and privileged individual,
esp. a financial backer of a political campaign."
   Sorry, but I'm having trouble with Newspaperarchive and can't open the
article at the moment.

...in the Republican party promises the finest FAT CAT fight ever seen in
this State, Frank.....It ough.1 perhaps to be explained that FAT CAT is the
significant and revealing name.....as candidate or backer, the magic i words "FAT
CAT" ring throughout the wards, precincts.....in a battle for blood. Soon or
late every FAT CAT in the party will likely be involved..
