# Page 4 of Judge Magazine: Political Satire Analysis This page contains several brief satirical commentary pieces and two cartoons typical of Judge's style. **"His Second Attack"** (left cartoon): Shows a man and woman in confrontation. The text references a Massachusetts governor who vetoed a bill exempting soldiers from service examinations—the "attack" being his veto. The satire mocks both the governor's action and the soldiers' complaints. **"Hum of the Court"** (center column): A collection of short jabs at various figures and events. References include criticism of Congressman Morrison, Edward P. Weston (famous pedestrian), prohibitionists, and mentions of "Mrs. Cleveland" exercising political veto power—likely Frances Cleveland, wife of President Grover Cleveland, whose influence the writer finds troubling. **"Protected Industry"** (right cartoon): Depicts what appears to be industrial or manufacturing figures, though the specific satire is unclear from the visible text. The overall tone is typical 1880s-90s American political humor: irreverent, gossipy, and focused on mocking public figures' minor actions and personal lives.
