What you’re looking at

This page contains political commentary and satirical notes rather than a single cartoon. The main illustration, titled "BOUND TO WIN," depicts two figures in conversation, likely representing political or social commentary of the era. The text references Governor Hill (appears to be David B. Hill, New York governor), with the heading "GOVERNOR HILL, GOOD-BYE!" criticizing his political positions and character. Multiple short items mock Democratic politics, mention potential mayoral candidates, and comment on civil service reform. Without clearer identification of specific individuals or dates in the OCR, the exact political figures and events remain uncertain. The overall tone suggests satirizing Democratic Party politics and New York state government during what appears to be the 1880s based on publication style.

GOVERNOR HILL, GOOD-BYE! Language, according to the late Mr. Talleyrand, was created for the concealment of ideas. Our little governor goes that several better, and omits the language as well as the suggestion. He has been pro- claimed as the great Democratic force in politics—a fighting man, an aggressor, a knight of principle, with visor down and battle-ax hand; yet he has not a word to say on any question which interests the nation, and in every national respect he is a skulker, lacking even the courage of a bushwhacker and minus a banner anda plume. It is sad that men on whose promise so much is centered should be so utterly disappointing. It is the old Democratic cowardice, and in comparison with it the courage of Mr. Cleveland is a majestic revela. tion of power, not to say of good political management. It is little to say “I am a Demoers Where, thou little wretch! are the doc uments to.show for it? The JupGE has said that Mr. Cleveland has made Mr. Blaine the next president. It was a courageous, manly, patriotic thing to do. Governor Hill has made it inevitable that Grover Cleveland is the man to be licked by Mr. Blaine, and that is so cowardly as to be contemptible. There is no redemption for a cow ard in these days. Mark you that, David! and good-bye “ORGANIZE FOR HONESTY,” says the Buffalo Express. Good gracious! what's honesty ?
