The confusion of tongues / L.M. Glackens.
Summary
Illustration shows disagreement among many Republicans who were working together to construct a tower labeled "Republican Harmony"; they have broken off into small factions clustered around building blocks labeled "Progressivism" with the Republican elephant sitting against it sniffing "Smelling Salts", "Radicalism" over which "Munsey" and "Woodruff" are engaged in a discussion, "Conservatism" on which President Taft sits gesturing toward "La Follette" who is standing on his head, and "Pinchot" trying to make a point to "Barnes" who is facing a diminutive "Job Hedges", "Standpatism" around which "Cummins, Cannon, Sherman, Penrose, [and] Root" are involved in a heated discussion, and "Meism" upon which Theodore Roosevelt is jumping up and down and gesturing wildly. Others present are "Dixon [and] W.B. McKinley" who appear about to come to blows, as are "Perkins [and] Garfield"; "Lorimer" wearing a bandage labeled "Vindication" addresses "Lodge [and] "Gov. Stubbs", and in the background on the right, the man standing on a block addressing a crowd may be Charles W. Fairbanks. The few tools visible sit idle.
