The overall message of this cartoon is the show that Roosevelt kept the good trusts close and
got rid of the bad trusts in business.
G. BONUS What is up with the bears in the back?
I think the little bear in the back is kind of helping out Teddy by carrying some of his stuff. Or the
little bear could represent a good generation coming about with all good trusts and none bad.
