Black ink cartoon of President Roosevelt in his Rough Rider uniform and “Jedge Parker” on stage. Roosevelt bends over with his hat stretched out and both men hold a sheet of music. In front of the stage is a fat, bald man labeled “Wall Street” sitting and playing a piano, with his sheet music the same as the one being held by Roosevelt and Alton B. Parker. The text of the music reads “There will be no silver threads among the gold.”
