# Analysis of Judge Magazine Page This page contains political editorial commentary rather than comics. The articles criticize Democratic figures and policies: **"Harmony in Feast"** mocks Democratic leaders dining together while representing conflicting interests, suggesting hypocrisy. **"Cause for Divorce"** attacks a Buffalonian suing for divorce, blaming his wife's infidelity—apparently a jab at Buffalo Democrats. **"Cuban Heat"** criticizes the Cuban Assembly's proposal to execute someone, questioning whether Congress should recognize Cuban independence. **"A Victory for Justice"** praises Governor Roosevelt for supporting judicial integrity against corrupt practices. The bottom cartoons—labeled "A Spring-Time Kick" and "A Yard of Scents"—use food imagery (imported beef, eggs, butter) to satirize economic or trade policy issues, likely protectionist debates of the era. The overall tone is Republican/anti-Democratic partisan advocacy.

WE TILL BELIE that heaven is beyond the trusts, but they can have the other place if they want DEMOCRATS have selected their anti-expansion coffin, and they will oc- cupy it beyond doubt after their funeral a year from next November. F MRS. PLACE had had the same repug- nance to killing a woman that some of the critics of Governor Roosevelt have she might have been alive to-day. [* MAY be well to poke sticks at Brother Talmage, but all the same he has talked to more people, year in and year out, than any other man since Henry Ward Beecher. GUINALDO in the beginning of the busi- ness gave orders that the invaders should be exterminated. There must be a great lack of discipline, or something, among the natives. MAN took five thousand dollars from Philip D. Armour for perjury, and then betrayed Mr. Armour and boasted of it. Is the fellow bidding for ten thousand to betray the betrayal ?

WE é FEEL that a tragedy has been averted in obliging Perry Belmont and Mr. Bryan to dine at different tables. Where either sits is the head of the table, and two heads at any one Democratic board means oratorical and bloody gore. CAUSE FOR DIVORCE. E DO NOT blame the Buffalonian who sues for divorce because his wife threw clam-chowder on him. ‘The woman must be ignorant as well as extravagant. Everybody knows that that concoction is to be used internally and not as an outward application. CUBAN HEAT. ‘THE CUBAN ASSEMBLY deposed Gomez and one member of it wanted to shoot him for treason. There is apparently a good deal of Spanish blood in that body; and we see further how unwise it would have been for our congress to recognize the Cuban republic, as was proposed shortly before the war began. A VICTORY FOR JUSTICE OVERNOR ROOSEVELT is fortunate in both his friends and. his enemies; and his respect for judges, juries and courts and their decisions is worthy of all praise. It would have been a crime to save Mrs. Place from justice, and, besides that, it would have won him the misfortune of praise from the yellow newspapers. HIS THOUGHTFUL SILENCE. UGUSTUS VAN WYCK slated for pres- ident by Mr.Croker? This is an appeal to the south, for he was for a time in the con- federate army. But it is not an appeal to either the silver or the gold Democrats, for nobody knows the kind of money man he is. Probably, as in the emergency of the canvass in this state, he doesn’t know himself. A YARD OF SCENTS. _ Our esteemed contemporary, The Youth's Companion, gave away to its readers a beautiful “* yard of something or other.” The JupcE, not to be outdone in this line, herewith presents its readers with the above hand-painted ** yard " free, gratis, for nothing.
