The Donkey, the Elephant, and the Goat at a Public Meeting is a satirical play by Jack Preston, first published in 1920. The play features animal characters representing the Democratic Party (donkey), Republican Party (elephant), and the working class (goat), engaging in a public debate that highlights political rivalries and social issues of the early 20th century.
