Italiano:
1899: Vignetta satirica sull'Inquirer. Dopo la Guerra ispano-americana, lo Zio Sam tiene in equilibrio le sue nuove conquiste, dipinte come bambini selvaggi. Nella figura notiamo le Hawaii (in alto), le Filippine, Cuba, Porto Rico e le Isole Marianne (fino all'inizio del XX secolo chiamate Ladrones). In basso le potenze mondiali osservano. La didascalia è un commento ironico di John Bull: "Ciò che riesce a fare l'allenamento è veramente straordinario perché, soltanto l'altro giorno, pensavo che quell'uomo non fosse nemmeno in grado di sostenere se stesso".
