May 12, 1909: The Battle for Free Trade Rages On - A vivid illustration from Puck magazine captures the intensity of the tariff debate as it consumed the political landscape of America. In this intriguing depiction, King Henry V. of the American Protective Tariff League leads his troops, labeled as Trusts and Monopoly, in a valiant defense against invading forces advocating for Fair Trade and Honest Revision. The scene unfolds at a breach in the Tariff Wall, symbolizing the protective barriers that had long been a contentious issue in American politics. The American Protective Tariff League, a powerful lobbying group, was a staunch advocate for high tariffs, which they believed would protect American industries and jobs. Conversely, the Fair Trade and Honest Revision forces, represented by the invading army, argued for lower tariffs and free trade, which they believed would benefit consumers and promote international cooperation. This cartoon, published in Puck magazine, encapsulates the heated rhetoric and passionate convictions that characterized the tariff debate during this period. The illustration underscores the significance of the issue, with both sides determined to emerge victorious in the battle for America's economic future. As the debate raged on, the nation watched with bated breath, eager to see which side would ultimately prevail.
