This page contains multiple political commentary sections rather than a single cartoon. The main illustrated piece shows two figures in what appears to be a "Last Straw" scenario—likely depicting a political disagreement or confrontation. The text sections critique various Democratic positions and figures. "The Democratic Geography" mocks Cleveland's western policy choices. "The Several Sabbaths" satirizes religious denominations' political affiliations. "King Pat" praises an Irishman (likely a political figure) for his pragmatic approach to politics and governance, suggesting he transcends partisan divisions. The overall tone attacks Democratic politics while celebrating practical, non-ideological leadership. Without clearer identification of specific figures or dates visible in the OCR text, precise historical context remains uncertain.

Very likely; but the New-Yorker who gets that distinction must first go west and grow up with the country. New York has had her share, and there is an exceedingly great and growing west. We must begin to remember that. THE SEVERAL SABBATHS. ‘THE HEBREW might insist that the world’s fair shall be closed on Saturdays. The seventh-day Baptist has his particular sabbath, and other denominations have theirs. Has any particular creed or church the right to say that these religious peoples shall conform to their views or be denied the privilege of viewing the exhibition? Or have we, as the American Sentinel ‘nquires, a national religion, and if we have is not that fact a fracture of the constitution? For, remember, that exhibition is to be moral and instructive day in and day out. THE KICKERS. 'HE CRAZE for new and inelegant dances will not cease until some fair nymph dislocates herself at every joint and forgets how to re- sume her natural condition. The human form was formerly mentioned as divine. Now it is nothing if not acrobatic and recklessly out of shape; and the higher the kick and the more like a corkscrew the woman gets herself the more she draws. There will come a change; but not until the dancer has learned to give a match to the chandelier with one large toe, at the same time tickling her ear with the other. CONSOLATION FOR THE AFFLICTED. THE FOLIAGE this fall was more beautiful and had more colors in it than in any previous year. There was glory in every mountain-top and every valley, and there was no weed that had. not a beauty previously undiscovered ‘The long; mild auttimn with its thou- sand colors should go into history as the one perfect autumn in a score of years. Whata pity it is that such an autumn should have been disfigured by the campaign spell-binder, the throbbing drum, and the loud-smell- ing torch, and that it should be re- membered principally because Smith was elected and Jones was put in the politically cold, cold ground. OUR SO-CALLED DEMOC- RACY. ET US HOPE the prince of Wales and the duke of York, his son, will kindly reconsider their alleged determination to visit the world’s fair. Our people are loyal to their system of government and feel bound to speak with withering contempt of all the other systems; but when a live mon- arch, or prospective monarch, visits them they are apt to concede consid- erable to that majesty. They do not get on their knees and kiss its toe, but they come as near to that as their so-called self-respect will allow; and our wonten, are so carried away by it that they cannot possibly get back There are some who remember the first visit of Wales and+ the last visit of Nicholas of Russia, and the remembrance is not pleasing. KING PAT. THE IRISHMAN has ceased to be a political issue and now contents himself with smiling serenely, doing his various official duties, and cutting his coupons. This man is the best politician in the world. An orator, a poet, a wit, a hard worker, everything that comes to his net is fish, on Fridays and other days, and the net takes in all the water the world has. He knows an opportunity before he sees it. He is a patriot in behalf of whatever country he belongs to, with a single exception. He kissed the blarney-stone three days after his birth, and smiles and fights with unstinted pleasantness and ability whatever the circumstances which surround him. He makes our presidents and fills all the local offices He is our ruler and we pay him roundly for the honor and authority he confers upon us. ‘i comicbooks.com
