What you’re looking at

This political cartoon from *Judge* magazine depicts three well-dressed men in top hats physically attacking or restraining a figure labeled "WORKMAN." The assailants appear to represent business or political interests, while the sign reads "WE ARE OPPOSED TO DEMOCRATIC ADMINISTRATION THAT TEND TO RUIN BUSINESS." The cartoon satirizes opposition to Democratic policies, suggesting that wealthy business interests actively work against labor and working-class protections under the guise of protecting "business." The "yellow peril" reference in the title (likely continuing below the visible frame) may indicate xenophobic economic anxieties of the era. The overall message critiques how business elites weaponize anti-Democratic rhetoric while literally oppressing workers.
