“The Confusion of Tongues”

In Genesis, the attempt to build a tower to heaven provoked God to give people different languages so they could not understand each other. This Puck cartoon uses the biblical analogy of the Tower of Babel to depict ideological confusion between Republicans in 1912. The identifiable figures are (left-right): businessman George W. Perkins arguing with James R. Garfield, former interior secretary (1907-1909) and son of President James Garfield; Senator Robert La Follette of Wisconsin, a presidential candidate, standing on his head; magazine publisher Frank Munsey debating with Timothy Woodruff, former New York lieutenant-governor (1897-1902); and Gifford Pinchot, the chief forester fired by President William Howard Taft, making a point to William Barnes Jr., chairman of the New York Republican Party. |
