Giveaway Davis” holds a “Western Union telegram” that reads, “Democratic National Convention.” Meanwhile, President Roosevelt stands by a wall that reads, “sound finances—honesty in public service—courage to do right—protection to American labor—respect for the flag at home & abroad—fair play for capital and labor—punishment for every grafter.”
