President Roosevelt arrives at the “New Union Station, Washington,” along with William Loeb. The latter is carrying Roosevelt’s “Big Stick,” on which is hanging a cage enclosing the dove of “Peace.” He also bears a shovel labeled “Panama Troubles,” a bag full of “Mistakes,” “Slips,” “Errors,” and “Department Scandals,” and a rifle. The new station, in the background, is the United States Capitol, with a “Tariff Wall” and a large man labeled “The Trusts Stand Pat” atop the dome.
