1. Title: The Warriors Return: Theodore Roosevelt's Battle for Reciprocity and the Tariff Debate of 1904 Date: October 5, 1904 Description: This illustration, titled "The Warriors Return," depicts President Theodore Roosevelt as a gallant knight on horseback, embodying the spirit of his progressive reforms and diplomatic achievements. He rides triumphantly, carrying a lance labeled "Reciprocity" over his shoulder, symbolizing his successful pursuit of reciprocal trade agreements with foreign nations. A sack labeled "Campaign Funds" hangs from the horse's saddle, alluding to the political implications of Roosevelt's actions. In the background, a menacing giant ogre, labeled "Infant Industries," sits against a castle. This monstrous figure represents the protectionist forces, led by the Dingley Tariff, which sought to shield American industries from foreign competition. The ogre clutches a club labeled "Dingley Tariff" in his right hand, emphasizing the heavy-handed protectionist measures that threatened to stifle economic growth. Above the castle, a banner bearing the words "High Protection" flutters in the wind. Atop a nearby tower, a despondent maiden labeled "Fair Trade" stands, her downcast gaze reflecting the plight of those who favored free trade and international cooperation. This powerful image, created in 1904, encapsulates the intense political debates surrounding trade policies during Roosevelt's presidency. The struggle between protectionist and free-trade ideologies would continue to shape American economic and political discourse for decades to come.
