Woodrow Wilson, as a doctor, holds aloft a bottle of “Tariff Subsidy Morphine” among a group of men at the “Democratic Sanitarium – Morphine and other Drug Habits Cured.” On a table are bottles of “High Protection Cocaine, High Protection Dope, [and] Tariff Subsidy Morphine.” Caption: Dr. Wilson — Don’t be alarmed, gentlemen. We won’t take it from you all at once. We’ll taper you down gradually, and after a while you’ll have confidence enough in yourselves to get along without it.
