What you’re looking at

This page contains brief political commentary pieces rather than a single unified cartoon. The sketches and text mock various political figures and issues of the era: **"All's Well with Roswell"** suggests Governor Flower is popular among Republicans who might otherwise oppose him, indicating political pragmatism over principle. **"The Brown-Smiths"** satirizes the practice of hyphenating married women's names, presenting it as pretentious affectation. **"A Bad Break"** criticizes Miss Anthony's populist Kansas campaign, suggesting it reflects poorly on women's suffrage advocates through association with bribery. The page's various short items touch on income taxes, crop conditions, and military matters, typical of Judge's satirical coverage of contemporary political debates and social trends during this period.

There are about twenty leading Republicans who would like to run for governcr, and, such is their affection for him, they would rather run against him than anybody else. And he has a clear field so far as his own party is concerned. No Democrat wants to cheat him out of his right to a renomination. THE SIMPLICITY OF SECRECY. A N ACTRESS who went abroad registered herself on the books of the vessel as the wife of the man who accompanied her in order, she says, to avoid scandal. It seems she had a divorce suit pending, and her name on the books would have caused conversation. It is odd, but there are others than actresses who might thus assume a virtue without being within a thousand miles of it. THE BROWN-SMITHS. HE_PROTEST against the hyphen in names is sheer impertinence. One has only a few syllables of that kind during his entire life, and he ought to have the right to turn them, twist them, and punctuate them as best suits himself and the woman of his house and heart. This is no free country if a man can't make himself ridiculous with the only slip of literature that belongs to himself alone, A BAD BREAK, SS ANTHONY has been talking for populism in Kansas, Not that she loves populism, but that party declares for equal suffrage and It would have been better for Miss Anthony and her cause if she had declined that kind of bribery. It is a reflection on the common sense of women, and provokes the inquiry whether a little sentiment wouldn't be apt to con- trol their strongest convictions. the other parties don’t. THE LITTLE PARTY OF REVENGE. MeRAT HALSTEAD thinks the prohibitionists have spoiled a good many elections that might have been Republican victories. The JUDGE hardly believes that, but it has repeatedly said that that is a main purpose of their organiza- tion. They have just two ideas—to force men to eat and drink accord- ing to their orders, and to break up that one of the two great parties which is most in sympathy with temperance ideas, give up like that, ye know. A TWO KINDS OF LOCUST. THE VOICE of the locust is that of the United States senate—a prolonged, vexatious, loud, never- ending hum, with an ambitious whistle attending it, the latter ceasing for_a second at rare intervals. It says nothing. It is without legitimate purpose. It is intolerably an- noying, and provokes the inquiry, “ Will it keep on to the crack of doom?” But it is better than the voice of the senate. teen years. nnon, of all places, ye know." It comes only once in seven- THE LIBERTY TO THINK. A KANSAS EDITOR was dressed by indignant women in a mother- Hubbard gown and.a sun-bonnet and obliged to march at the head of a band through the streets of Wichita, He was an anti-suffragist, and in the eyes of those women that was unpardonable. It never occurred to them that he had as much right to his opinions as they had to theirs; and that kind of honest, unthinking intolerance is going to get us into a bad scrape when women have the right to vote, SOME KINDS OF PROTECTION, ‘TAMMANY PROTECTS burglary, prostitution, green goods, and bunco. It is profitable, but it is debasing. The future New York millionaire can have no coat-of-arms that can truthfully do him credit, and his pedigree will bring blushes to his brazen cheek. The emblem of Mr. Croker is far better, for his ancestors were not educated to depravity— they achieved it by inheritance. And the future New-Yorker of honest poverty will have little to pride himself on, It will be said that his ances- tors, though largely in the majority, didn’t know enough to protect them- selves. comicbooks.com
