A farmer on “Prosperity Road” stops at a gate labeled “Dingley Tariff.” Standing in his wagon, he hands the “Toll” to a well-dressed bloated man labeled “Monopoly” sitting on a large pile of moneybags labeled “Trust Profits.” A few bags labeled “Cereals” remain in the farmer’s wagon. President William McKinley is the gatekeeper.
