Bas-relief washed ashore at Oyster Bay

President Roosevelt holds up “the big stick” and looks into “the G.O.P. strenuous telescope” as he sees a “2nd term” shooting star pass a “Democratic eclipse.” There is a broken “1st term” star on the ground and a paper that reads, “Explanations of all the mysteries for the universe by T. Roosevelt.” Charles W. Fairbanks is in the background saying, “Give somebody else a chance.”
