# Judge Magazine Page 70 Analysis This page contains political commentary and brief satirical items rather than full cartoons. Key sections include: **"Honesty Against Cunning"**: Praises President Cleveland for relieving the Democratic party of "cowardice" at a Jackson dinner, contrasting his honest approach with the party's congressional wing's dishonesty. **"Their Determined Action"**: References Mr. Platt and committee resolutions about state election losses, sarcastically suggesting they'll recover through burglary—implying Democratic corruption. **"How Flower and His Money Talk"**: Questions whether Governor Flower, described as "modest and practical," is too wealthy (fifty thousand majority) to be a suitable compromise presidential candidate. **"How David Took His Own Scalp"**: Appears to criticize Governor Flower for losing a Democratic apportionment advantage through his own actions. The page reflects 1890s Democratic Party internal divisions and succession debates.
