It turned out to be a wooden horse

In this cartoon by Carey Orr, two criminals, "crime and graft," crawl out of the belly of a wooden camel, "prohibition," and invade the city, "U.S.A." The camel's platform is dragged in by a rope that reads, "18th amendment," and a man, "temperance element," looks up at the criminals.
