# Judge Magazine Satire Analysis This page contains multiple political commentaries from Judge magazine. The main cartoon depicts two figures on a dock in what appears to be a casual conversation about marriage and money—likely satirizing social attitudes of the era. The text sections criticize various political figures and events: - "GLORY!" attacks the Assassin (likely referring to a political figure) as a tyrant - "TOO GREAT A SACRIFICE" criticizes Democratic Party positions on the Philippines - "A GREAT LEGAL CRIME" references Mrs. Maybriek's guilt conviction - "JUSTICE TO ALGER" defends Russell A. Alger's political vindication - Multiple brief items mock figures like Gorman, Dewey, and others on contemporary political issues The overall tone is Republican/conservative, attacking Democratic policies and defending Republican figures. Without specific dates visible, the exact historical moment is unclear, but references suggest early 1900s American politics.

The triumph of the Filipinos in their war would mean the same thing. Perhaps it isn’t worth while to ‘TOO GREAT A SACRIFICE. *y ' disgrace the country in order to give victory to the Democratic party. A GREAT LEGAL CRIME. HE FACT that Mrs. Maybrick is not guilty is of no importance in comparison with the shock that would follow a confession that British law had been guilty of a mistake. The dignity of the British courts must be sustained no matter how many innocent persons live and die in jail. : JUSTICE TO ALGER. MICHIGAN testifies to her affection and atimiration for Russell A. Alger. The reception accorded him was without politics, and appar- ently included every man, woman and child in the state. We should take it that if Mr. Alger wants a political vindication he can get it by a term in the national senate. OUR SUSAN. SUSAN B. ANTHONY dines with lords and ladies, counts and countesses, has supped with the queen, and will presently call on the princess of Wales, if that consummation has not already occur- _ red, We suspect a desire to ex- ercise her charms on the prince, also; and if she does she will hold her head so high that she will hitch her back hair to a “CONTEMPTIBLE ~ 2 COWARDICE. THRE DEMOCRATS of Maryland declare in convention against a large standing army in time of peace, and are sifent with regard to the Philippines. Can anybody reflect upon resolutions of that ‘kind without recalling the Democratic cowardice and the treason that prevailed + during the civil war? And if not actually treasonable, is it not contemptible? IDEAL. GOLD AND SILVER. T IS ANNOUNCED that the gold Democrats are anxious to join the Democratic majority, and that all they ask is.for the silver Democrats to make the currency question a secondary issue. Of course, the issue will be the same whether it comes first, second or last, and if it is half-hidden it will be as poisonous as if it were the most conspicuous thing; but the gold Democrats are lonesome and want company. A CURSE. IPLING wrote a curse of America that must remind him at this period of what a miserable little wretch he was at that time. The attitude of a man who shakes his fist.at the ocean is not heroic; and the writer Who tries to bespatter a continent with ink is not’ sublime. Kipling. when he first visited us had a vicious temper. He probably has learned since that it hurt him more than it hurt the United States of America. WE SHALL MISS HIM, ENEDICT ARNOLD and Judah P. Benjamin became British subjects quite naturally, having become excessively tired of being Americans and being in some fear that their blawsted country would hang them. Waldorf Astor has equally good reasons in a desire for a seat in parlia- ment and an ambition to fill the matrimonial vacancy arising from the death of Randolph Churchill, It is hard to lose him; but, as the jilted girl remarked of her sweetheart, “God bless him, let him go.” comicbooks.com
