The main cartoon titled "AN INSTANCE" depicts two figures in what appears to be a cave or crude shelter, with one saying "Roadside Ice—'Dis doin' cookin' is a side business, but yet never heerd of any one gittin' rich at it.'" The response is "Yer didn't? What's de matter wid Dick Croker?" This references **Dick Croker**, the notorious Tammany Hall political boss, likely mocking his wealth accumulation through corrupt "side business" dealings. The cartoon satirizes how Croker became wealthy through political patronage and graft—suggesting even street vendors know such schemes don't typically enrich people, yet Croker mysteriously prospered. The surrounding text columns discuss various political and social commentary typical of Judge's satirical format, though specific events aren't clearly identifiable from this page alone.

FREE TRADE is a dream. Precio is bread-and-butter. TWO SENATES in New Jersey suggest the inquiry what kind of a Kansas is this?

Senne NO MAN can serve two such masters as the Democratic party and the collar-and-cuff in- dustry. A CORRESPONDENT is mean enough to remark that Mr. Cleveland is a failure as a reign- maker too.

These times bring to view the open hand, the large heart, and the self-sacrifice which relieve distress. New York and every large city have given often and freely, and the patience of their generosity has no end. Suffering makes brothers and sisters of men and women. We may even be occasionally thankful for hard times. AN INSTANCE, Roapstpe 1kz—"* Dis doin’ nothin’ is er nice business, but yer never heerd THE RIGHT TO KISS. SOOTHING BALM. THE GRIP is a gentler trouble now that the czarina of Russia, her pa the king of Denmark, and the shah of Persia have it, Misery not only likes company, but she likes her pick of it. A NEW PERIL. WOMEN of the Pacific coast are joining men’s labor unions, and sev- eral women are lecturing on labor. Bourke Cockran says that pro- tectionists want to break up these unions. This is a sufficient indication of their peril without the new danger on the Pacific coast. SOUTHERN GENEROSITY. PAPER of New Orleans, called the Aescue, wants, curiously enough, to increase the pension-list. It is the only paper with that kind of Iberality on the southern side, and it is quite in earnest. “We are in favor of pensioning the soldiers who fought on both sides "—those are its very words. = MISSIONARY-AT- LARGE.

That body needs him, and he will know enough now to know a good thing when he has it. We do suspect that in his case a good agriculturist was spoiled to make a fair states- man, but his eccentricity is so much better than the average Kansas mis- fortune of that kind that it would be easy to select a worse man for the place: and, merciful heaven! there is Peffer himself. THE POLITICS OF IT. THE SENATE, by and with the advice of D. B. Hill, has ceased to minister to the personal comfort of the president, and indeed has be- come to him the gall of bitterness. And it is half just. Senators and representatives have rights with re- gard to the nominations of their states that they have no business to resign. Still, if Hornblower had been a snapper he would have been confirmed. P. S.—But then he wouldn't have been nominated, i i | ‘What's de matter wid Dick Croker?” COURT in Holland has de- cided that it is not an offense to kiss a woman in the street against her desire, a kiss being “in the nature of a warm mark of sympathy.” There are various kinds of sym- pathy, and that of a ruffian is not to be invited or placidly submitted to. It may at least be hoped that the right to indiscriminate kissing will not be applied to the women of Holland, for in that case there wouldn't be enough men left in the country to run the government. ¥ WHERE TO DRAW THE LINE. DJ: MACARTHUR gives statistics to show that most of the deserters and bounty-jumpers of our civil war were Irish, that the pope was in sympathy with’ the south, and that the Roman church is a continual 4 menace to our free institutions. It may be said that some of our best fighters and ablest generals were Irish, and that the church mentioned does great good; but, however all that may be, not a dollar of the public fands must go to any sectarian school. NOISE AND CLAMOR. ‘THE PRESIDENT will presently cry out to be saved from his friends. The mugwump press and the World charge him with stupidity and the airs of an autocrat, and there is no Democratic newspaper that feels itself able to defend the result of his Hawaiian policy. Add to this his defeat in the senate and his humiliation is complete. Let this sort of thing go on and the world will presently awake to the discovery that, after all, there is more than one man in the United States. comicbooks.com
