Woodrow Wilson, as Moses, stands on a rock with his left arm raised at the parting of the seas labeled “Republican Split,” through which a horde of Democrats labeled “Marshall, M’Combs, Bryan, Kern, Williams, O’Gorman, Harmon, Mack, Gore, Underwood, Clark, Watterson, [and] Harvey” escape the “Predatory Pharaohs” caught on the far shore as the sea closes between them. Caption: The walking is good to the Promised Land.
