What you’re looking at

This appears to be a political cartoon from *Judge* magazine showing a bearded man in formal dress with military decorations at a desk, documents spread before him. The caption reads "BY PRESS THE BUTTON," with partial text below suggesting "he lifted a finger, to bring about the elec-" (election, presumably). The cartoon likely satirizes a political figure's power to influence elections through some mechanism—the "button" representing executive authority or behind-the-scenes control. The military medals and formal attire suggest a military or authoritarian leader. Without the full date or clearer context, the specific target remains unclear, but it critiques the concentration of power in one person's hands to manipulate electoral outcomes.
