Beginning publication in 1876, Puck was a humor magazine presenting the perspective of the sound-money, anti-trade-protection wing of the Democratic Party. However, it opposed Democrat William Jennings Bryan in his three campaigns for the presidency in 1896, 1900, and 1908 (though less emphatically in the last). Puck’s publishers and cartoonists considered Bryan’s advocacy of free silver and other populist policies to be too radical, economically unsound, and socially dangerous. The magazine supported the presidential candidacies of Democrats Alton B. Parker in 1904 and Woodrow Wilson in 1912.
