Title
JM-012: Some idle thoughts on the law
Summary
Editorial cartoon depicting six unrelated panels. In the top one, a judge and his staff each point at the person smaller than they are as the person responsible for the leak. In the next panel, Theodore Roosevelt is shown saying he has nothing to say that is fit for publication. In the panel next to him, a large man points to his hand, titled "subsidiary committee" as to the place the blame should go to. In the next panel, a man is being charged $5 under "Anglo-Saxon Law for Chicken Embezzlement". the next panel shows a man, representing a corporation, sitting in a jail cell with his hand hanging outside the bars so only part of the corporation is being punished. The last, bottom panel shows a man on a cart pulled by a donkey waiting for a large train to travel past him.
