President Roosevelt holds a “presidential nomination 1904” paper and rides a Republican elephant with a “Cortelyou halo” that pulls a “campaign fund band wagon.” New York Senator Thomas Collier Platt and Massachusetts Senator Henry Cabot Lodge ride smaller elephants while Secretary of Commerce and Labor George B. Cortelyou holds a “reform in elections” stick. Secretary of the Treasury Leslie M. Shaw and Attorney General and recently appointed Pennsylvania Senator Philander C. Knox are dressed as jugglers. The entire party walks toward the Republican National Convention.
