This is a photograph of a political cartoon by Matthew Caine and published around 1908. The cartoon shows a caricature of Theodore Roosevelt preparing to hammer a rod that reads "Progressives" on one side and "Republicans" on the other. Each of three horseshoes on the ground has a note attached to it. The notes read "Progressive principles," "recall of judicial decisions," and "state-wide primary."
