| Description | Cartoon shows blindfolded Justice holding a scale labeled "Republican Administration." On the heavier side of the scale is a baby labeled "Sugar Trust" wearing a bracelet "12 1/2 [cent sign] and sucking on a bottle labeled "Tariff Law 1897 [paragraph] 209, Dutch Standard." The lighter side of the scale holds the island of Cuba covered in gravestones and a label "War Bill $300 millions." The cartoon implies that the Republican administration of Theodore Roosevelt favors the sugar trust over Cuba and the debt incurred during the Spanish American War. |
