Out into the Storm - A Political Allegory of the Roosevelt-Taft Rift, 1911
EDITORS COMMENTS
This political cartoon, published in Puck magazine on December 13, 1911, offers a vivid commentary on the growing rift between President Theodore Roosevelt and his handpicked successor, President William Howard Taft. The illustration, titled "Out into the Storm," depicts Roosevelt in the guise of Dame Van Winkle, a character from Washington Irving's "Rip Van Winkle," standing before a roaring fireplace. With his back to the warmth and his left hand pointing towards the door, Roosevelt banishes Taft, who is portrayed as Rip Van Winkle, carrying a rifle labeled "Sherman Law Enforcement" and leading a dog wearing a collar labeled "Wickersham." The stormy weather outside symbolizes the political turmoil brewing between the two Republican leaders. Roosevelt, having grown disillusioned with Taft's administration, had begun to criticize his policies and even formed the Progressive Party, also known as the "Bull Moose Party," to challenge him in the upcoming 1912 election. The Sherman Law Enforcement rifle and Wickersham dog refer to the controversial Payroll Protection Tax, which Taft had signed into law, and the Secretary of War, Jacob M. Dillon "Buck" Wickersham, respectively. The cartoon's publication in Puck, a well-known and influential political satire magazine, underscores the significance of this political drama. The image not only reflects the public's fascination with the Roosevelt-Taft feud but also serves as a visual commentary on the shifting political landscape of the early 20th century. This piece of political history remains a testament to the power of satire and the enduring appeal of political cartoons as a means of engaging the public in the complexities of American politics.
