What you’re looking at
This page contains two satirical cartoons from Judge's 1901 issue. **Top cartoon:** "Farmer Oatfield—'Now I've got ye, dance!'" depicts a man in a top hat energetically jumping, apparently terrorizing rural figures. This likely satirizes political or economic policies affecting farmers—the "dance" being forced upon them. **Bottom cartoon:** "The Kids (in chorus)—'A GREENA[?]'" shows multiple figures being knocked down or scattered by objects (possibly coins or projectiles). The incomplete caption makes the specific reference unclear, but it appears to ridicule either political corruption, economic inequality, or some scandal involving children or the working class. Both cartoons employ Judge's characteristic exaggerated caricature style to mock authority figures and their impacts on ordinary people.
