Title
JM-170: Getting scareder and scareder!
Summary
This cartoon depicts President Woodrow Wilson planning his reelection campaign against Charles Evans Hughes during the presidential election of 1916. The first panel shows President Wilson calmly planning to take a passive role in the campaign until he receives a note that the state of Maine voted for Hughes by a narrow majority. The second panel shows a concerned Wilson receiving news that Hughes was addressing crowds in the West, whose vote Wilson was counting on for winning the election. The third panel shows a shocked Wilson learning Hughes was predicted to win the election by a large margin. Despite the assumptions made in this cartoon, Woodrow Wilson would defeat Hughes in the election of 1916, and he became the first democratic president to serve two consecutive terms in a row since Andrew Jackson. Woodrow Wilson appealed to many with his campaign slogan, "He kept us out of war," which appealed to many European (especially German) immigrants who did not wish to have the conflict of loyalty that would come from the United States joining World War I. Despite this, the United States would eventually enter World War I in 1917 during Wilson’s second term. The Chicago Tribune published many articles in support of Hughes and his campaign.

JM-175: Don't drop the pilot!
Summary
This cartoon show Uncle Sam talking with President Wilson, Force, and Politics. Uncle Sam is insisting these parties do not allow someone to take the principle of arbitration outside the “ship of the state”. Arbitration is a form of dispute resolution that gained popularity during the world wars. It was a quick and efficient way to resolve personal and commercial disputes without the time and effort associated with moving a claim through the traditional judicial system. The United States government began to use arbitration as a way to efficiently solve disputes involving wartime resources. (Summary created by Mary Delano, MU History Intern, Spring 2018)

JM-176: The daily bread line 1913
Summary
This cartoon depicts a line of men waiting for food during the winter. One of them is holding a sign that says, “He kept us out of work”. This sign is a play on President Wilson’s campaign slogan, “He kept us out of war”. There were some areas of United States economy struggling in 1913, making many individuals unemployed. In 1913, many criticized President Wilson’s economic initiatives to be harmful to workers, and contributing to increased in unemployment. Such initiatives included further limiting commercial trusts and requiring investigations be made when particular businesses changed the wages of their workers. These investigations would be used to evaluate the costs of the factories, which was needed to determine guilt of criminal acts. In response to these initiatives, many factories closed operations or began to limit the changes that could be made to workers’ wages. (Summary created by Mary Delano, MU History Intern, Spring 2018)

JM-161: The refining influence of speculating in war stock
Summary
This cartoon shows two impressions of the same family living in the United States during World War I. The top panel displays the family before they bought war stocks. The bottom panel shows them after they purchased war stocks. In the top panel, the mother and father are lamenting on the carnage of the war, causing the death of millions in Europe. The couple is horrified at the seemingly senseless loss of life. In the bottom panel, the couple are thrilled the war is expected to drag on, because the value of their war stocks will continue to increase and provide a temporarily sustained income to the family. This cartoon is meant to illustrate Americans’ disturbing lack of empathy at the mere promise of profit. The United States notoriously made large profits throughout most of World War I selling weapons to use in the war, while remaining neutral in the conflict until 1917.

Title
JM-180: In the national army parade today, you are likely to see the man you'll all be cheering and voting for in years to come
Summary
This editorial cartoon depicts people watching the National Army of the Republic parade outside the window. A man wonders who will be "the Grant of this war." This is most likely one of the many parades held by military forces while the United States was fighting in WWI. This cartoon is captioned. “In the National Army Parade today, you are likely to see the man you’ll all be cheering and voting for in years to come”. The “Grant of this war” is a clear reference to Ulysses Grant, the eighteenth president of the United States from 1869 to 1977. Ulysses Grant was a general in the Civil War, and he is often given much credit for the Union’s victory. After being appointed General-in-Chief by Abraham Lincoln in 1864, Grant would accept General Lee’s surrender at Appomattox Court House, which effectively ended the Civil War. This cartoon suggests the future leaders of the United States would likely have served in World War I. (Summary created by Mary Delano, MU History Intern, Spring 2018)

Summary

In the bottom panel, the spirit of Theodore Roosevelt accuses La Follette of having no right to carry the Progressive Party banner in a later parade, also with representatives from the Socialist Party and the Farmer-Labor Party. In 1912, La Follette was hoping to be the presidential nomination for the progressive wing of the Republicans, but his supporters abandoned him in favor of Theodore Roosevelt when the former president announced his return to politics, and Roosevelt became the 1912 presidential candidate for the Progressive Party instead; La Follette supported Wilson in the election. When the Progressive Party re-formed, after World War 1, they chose La Follette as their presidential candidate at a convention in Ohio in July of 1924; the Socialist Party and Farmer-Labor Party joined La Follette's progressive platform.
