I found another of the Indianapolis newspapers' editorial cartoons about the challenges of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in its earliest day. This cartoon challenges the notion that the economic boost the Speedway allegedly promised the Hoosier capitol amounted to anything that the ordinary citizen would benefit from. This editorial was published in the August 25, 1909 Indianapolis Star.
