Ohio Senator Joseph Benson Foraker pulls a rope attached to the “Roosevelt tackle” that has Ohio Senator Marcus Alonzo Hanna on it. Hanna holds a “presidential boom” sack and is headed for the “haymow” in the “Ohio G. O. P. farm.” There is a weather vane on the barn with an elephant that says, “Roosevelt 1904.”

Print shows the interior of a barn crowded with horses and even more trying to get in. On the left in the back, George M. Robeson, George F. Hoar, Rutherford B. Hayes, William Mahone, and Thomas Collier Platt are trying to enter; but Uncle Sam, holding a “Rejected” sign, stops them at the door. At center is Benjamin F. Butler leading a horse that looks like himself, followed by Puck’s “Independent” Party figure leading two horses identified as “Cleveland” and “Mayor Low.” Puck, holding a lithograph pencil and a sign that states “Supreme Judge,” is standing with newspaper editors Whitelaw Reid, Carl Schurz, James Gordon Bennett, Joseph Pulitzer, and Murat Halstead. Among the horses waiting in the barn are Chester A. Arthur “Present Holder of First Prize,” Samuel J. Tilden being groomed by Henry Watterson, Thomas Hendricks, Roscoe Conkling, James G. Blaine, Ulysses S. Grant, Winfield Scott Hancock, David Davis, John A. Logan, James D. Cameron(?), Hubert O. Thompson, George Hoadly, Samuel S. Cox, Allen G. Thurman, Thomas F. Bayard, Frederick Edson, Abram S. Hewitt, William S. Holman getting a “Sun Mixture” from Charles A. Dana, John Sherman, and John Kelly as a mule labeled “Tammany” with its owner the “Irish Vote.”
