What you’re looking at

This page from *Judge* magazine contains several brief political commentaries rather than a single cohesive cartoon. The visible illustration shows two women in conversation—labeled "Mrs. Riley" and "Mrs. Foster"—discussing neighborhood gossip about drinking and morality. The text items reference contemporary (Gilded Age) political figures and issues: Colonel Ingersoll's atheism, W.C. Whitney's presidential ambitions, and discussion of Democratic party factionalism. Other pieces mock judicial corruption, business monopolies (coal barons), and political hypocrisy. Without clearer dating or additional context, the specific events referenced remain somewhat unclear, but the overall tone satirizes political corruption, moral hypocrisy among the wealthy, and social pretension—typical *Judge* magazine fare criticizing American power structures and public figures of the period.

ASTHE RESULT of a late theological disturbance Colonel Ingersoll has sued a prominent preacher for libel. Thus it is seen that Robert the Ingersoll is right—we give it and get it as we go along. ad T 1S THOUGHT that when W. C. Whitney runs for president he will fold up his spike-tail and go around in his shirt-sleeves, with dirt on his face and his mouth bulging with tobacco and clipped syllables. * RS. MONTAGU of Ireland, who “‘triced up” her daughter in such a way that the little thing died, ought to be triced up in the same manner, with the manifest improvement of having the tricing about the neck. THAT VERY YOUNG MAN. “+ IMJY WAY is the right way,” said the kaiser, “and I will lead you to great things. Those who will not help me had better shake the dust of Germany from their feet.” The day after he said it there was a mob of workingmen and socialists in Berlin which thundered its way nearly to the imperial castle and sang "The Marseillaise.” Perhaps they thought their way was the right way, and that it was as easy for the kaiser to “shake the dust” as for them. THE REVEREND PEBBLE-THROWER. ASTOR DILL of New Jersey is probably the only man who could continuously kiss all the girls of his parish and retain the worship of his congregation. We look upon Pastor Dill as a wonderful creat- ure and recommend his dex- terity and his consequent suc- cess to the kissing clergyman of the period, who by the way is but one in twenty of the most tempted and the most virtuous of men. THE NAPOLEON: NAPOLEON IVES is P himself rich again, and a short time Napoleon Ward will be out of prison and under- going the same experience. The emperors of finance have genius which no amount of misfortune can crush. If the original Na- poleon had managed to get away from St. Helena he would have created a new empire to fit his figure-head; and after all Napoleon Hill may triumph over his recent mistakes and eventu- ally find himself at the head of the wreck of the Democratic party. OUR OWN LOST LYDIA. A NEW CANDIDATE for president is Mary A. Livermore. She has the indorsement of John Hooker of Hartford, and of the Woman's Tribune of Washington. It would be more or less proper to have a woman among the leaders in the struggle of next November, for the pet= ticoat, while an inspiration, is a shield against injury as well; but our choice for this honor perished with the death of Lydia Pinkham, and the remnants of our blasted affections will be true to her memory forever- more. BUSINESS AND THE BARONS. [PAS URGED that the coal-barons combine so as to cheapen the cost of coal. It is not argued that they do not expect personal benefit from it—that would be too much to suppose. But somebody must suffer from it, The middle-men do. They are driven out, along with the honest effort of honest opposition. And did anybody ever know meh ‘who make and control markets to do so in opposition to their personal interests? They are not humanitarians—they are business men. Whether monopoly is right or wrong, let us not be guilty of the lie that monopoly has for its purpose, or is likely in all cases to have for its result, the benefit of ithe general public. If there is cheap coal there is cheap mining, and if the middle-man is robbed of his dollar the monopo- list gets i comicbooks.com
