What you’re looking at
This page contains a letter from the Postmaster General endorsing Judge's "Industrial" campaign edition (published near October 1900), praising its cartoons for their political effectiveness during the coming election campaign. The main cartoon shows two men discussing a woman who has left one for another—a "sky-terrier" (small dog). The humor relies on the rival consoling himself that she'll soon tire of the dog and return to him. It's a light domestic joke unrelated to the political content. The page is primarily **advertising and promotional material** rather than satirical commentary. Advertisements include Trimble Whiskey ("Green Label") and the Lackawanna Railroad's dining car service. The letter itself functions as promotional endorsement, positioning Judge as a powerful tool for the 1900 Republican campaign—likely the McKinley re-election bid. The magazine positioned itself as serious political satire with genuine campaign influence.
