Addams discusses the growing Progressive Party, formed by Theodore Roosevelt and its potential to spark reform for industrial workers. She uses Roosevelt as someone who has the power and personality to "gather up the sense of social wrong and direct it into channels of redress, to focus the scattered moral energy of our vast nation and to turn it into practical reform."

"The Political Pannier" by James North depicts Theodore Roosevelt during his bid for president during the 1912 election. The illustration features a crudly drawn Roosevelt, wearing a long dress, gloves, and an apron with the slogan "Votes for Women Vote for Me."
"Wisdom" by Arthur George Racey shows a woman standing at the entrance to Canada, wearing a hat labeled "Militant Suffragette" and carrying supplies, including "assorted bricks, hatchets, and other missils" and "kerosene for incendiary purposes." The guard prevents her from entering. The cartoon is a reference to Barbara Wylie, member of the Women's Social and Political Union in England who went to Canada for a suffrage speaking tour in 1912.
