On the left side of this cartoon, President Roosevelt carries a large “public interests” scroll on his back as he walks up stairs: “courage—Monroe Doctrine upheld,” “opposition to graft—regulation of trusts,” “Cuban freedom—Northern Securities decision,” “honesty in the public service,” “Cuban reciprocity,” “Panama Canal,” “justice for capital and labor,” and “patriotic purposes.” Caption: The Roosevelt as real history will picture him. On the right side of this cartoon, Roosevelt holds a sword in his teeth and rides a horse, leaving men labeled “trust,” “Cuban,” and “Filipino” on the ground. He drags “Panama” by a rope. Caption: The Roosevelt as the demagogues now paint him.
