What you’re looking at

This page contains political commentary and social satire typical of Judge magazine. The main cartoon, titled "An Assortion of His Rights," depicts a man using a large rake or broom on what appears to be scattered items or debris—likely a visual metaphor for political or social "sweeping clean." The surrounding text discusses various political figures and issues, including references to Cleveland, Jefferson Davis, and Democratic politics. One section critiques a colored man being repudiated as a woman, reflecting period racial attitudes. The content addresses Reconstruction-era political tensions and debates about voting rights, party loyalty, and political leadership. Without the publication date visible, the exact historical moment remains unclear, but the references suggest post-Civil War American politics during the late 19th century.
