The battle of bottles

A man (New York) clings to the top of a pole while New York Governor Al Smith and Republican candidate Ogden L. Mills chase each other in circles around the base of the pole. Al Smith holds a bottle labeled "wet issue," while Ogden Mills holds a bottle labeled "milk graft charges." Littered on the ground are several other bottles (N.Y. milk scandal, beer, and wines).
