After trying for eight years to saddle him

An angry Democratic donkey is tied to a post with a directional sign reading "to the presidential race track," and is biting the stirrup strap of a saddle (McAdoo Dry Candidacy). Menwhile, William G. McAdoo walks away pulling down his hat, the collar and lapels of his coat turned up, and carrying a whip and reins.
