President Roosevelt wears a shirt with a Republican elephant on it and uses the “Constitution of the United States” as a boxing bag. On the ground is a “jingoism” hobbyhorse, “big stick foreign policy” Indian clubs, and “high tariff, high prices” weights. William McKinley eyes Roosevelt from a picture frame on the wall. Caption: “I then stated it was my purpose to carry out his principles and policies. * * * To the best of my ability I have kept the promise thus made.”
