# Judge Magazine Page Analysis This page contains editorial commentary rather than a traditional political cartoon. The main illustration depicts what appears to be a caricatured figure in distress or conflict, likely related to the "jingoism" referenced in the headline "Very Good Jingoism." The editorials address several contemporary issues: U.S. relations with Spain regarding Cuba, freedom of the press in Spain (where military authorities censored newspapers), and racial discrimination in America. The piece "Rights of Native Americans" criticizes the Women's Press Club of Georgia for excluding Black members, arguing this contradicts Christian charity and the principles of emancipation. The overall tone is satirical critique of both foreign military authoritarianism and domestic American racism and hypocrisy.

Profanity is vulgar; but the little word “ Dictated " ought to have saved her salary and her sensitiveness. JUDGE MARTINE, sentencing a firebug to prison, regretted that he couldn't send him to the gallows. Perhaps the man bas a little self- respect left. Why not give him a rope and see if he won't hang himself ? eae HOSE SOUTHERN BLACKS who contemplate a new exodus to Liberia had better profit from a former experiment of that kind sufficiently to use most of their funds and efforts in the great work of getting back. tae THE WICKEDEST MAN is doubtless Hayward of Minnesota, gam- bler and woman-killer. He was given rope, and he will come to the end of it in a few weeks. It is urged in his behalf that, anyhow, he wasn't a member of the fifty-third congress; but we must not forget that he had all of its bad habits and deserves retirement quite as much as it did. “* Haf you heardt dot Hochstein lose all his *Veeping Rachel! how didt id happen?"

ET US HAVE serious difficulty with Spain and filibustering expedi- tions to Cuba will be large and numerous enough to insure the free- dom of that island with neatness and dispatch. “The longest way round is the nearest way home,” and great reforms frequently reach their fruition by the most indirect methods. THE PERILS OF PEACE. [7 IS EASIER for a nation to go to war than to stop when it gets through. France, England and Russia will have a good deal to say of the settlement of the Chinese-Japanese trouble, whatever agreement Japan and Li Hung Chang may reach, and their interests may involve those of other powers, It is no trouble for Japan to whip China, but her efforts for. peace will be unhappy and perhaps exhaustive. THE AMERICAS. PAPER of the city of Mexico calls upon all the Americas to unite against foreign interference in the political affairs of this hemisphere, and alludes with excellent significance to the shooting of Maximilian by Juarez, Had Mr. Blaine been elected president and lived, the Americas would have been as one nation with relation to all manner of foreign im- pertinence and greed. His death postponed the inevitable too long. THE UNRELIGIOUS PREACHER. THE ARTIST in literature hides himself in his work. The newspaper that lives on sensations must be dexterous enough to make its read- ers believe it is telling the solemn truth, and not for its own benefit but for their gratification.” The clergyman who is se- vere and unfair and given to meanness and exaggeration advertises to the world that he wants to be noticed, and is willing to bring his pulpit into disrepute for that sole purpose. A MILITARY GOVERNMENT. THE SPANISH PRESS criticised the Spanish army, and immediately rep- resentatives of the army sacked a number of newspaper offices. In this country that is called cowardice, but the cabinet of Spain resigns rather than punish the men guilty of the outrage. Such a country as that has no business with Cuba It is as barharous as it is remorseless, and it has robbed Cuba too long. The century will not close satisfactorily with Cuba still in the hands of Spain, HOW TO PUNISH. It IS NOT urged that men who beat their wives do not deserve the whip- ping-post, but that the state cannot afford the dishonor of it, It is a tolerably stal- wart state, however It permits the lash in its prisons, and it submits to the tying up of refractory prisoners by the thumbs. We don’t see how some kind of punish- ment of wife-beaters and convicts is to be avoided, and it must be punishment that hurts. Still, it is better to choose this century’s methods rather than those of the ancient periods. THE INJUSTICE OF LOGIC, A church Sunday with all business closed ; or a secular Sunday with all business open; but no Sunday devoted exclusively to religion and liquor —Kochester Post Express. HAT IS GOOD LOGIC; and good logic carried to an extreme is frequently absurd as well as unfair. The iron-clad rule is thought- lessly admired. There are so many persons to be affected by a particular law that fair play calls for more or less discrimination, Let us have flexi- bility and some respect for the various situations which the law affects, EN CARATS. RIGHTS OF NATIVE AMERICANS. THE WOMEN’S PRESS CLUB of Georgia has withdrawn from the general federation of women’s clubs because it admits negroes. This is the old trouble that has afflicted church and labor organizations, and that ought to have been soothed by the proclamation of emancipation. It is natural enough; but if there is to be discrimination against the black race why not against other races? The charity of the gospel admits Chinamen to our Sunday-schools, and black natives of the soil have really vindicated their possession of rights which white men are bound to re- spect. comicbooks.com
