What you’re looking at

This satirical page from *Judge* magazine contains four distinct political cartoons: 1. **"The Magnet—The Snob Set Is Off"**: Shows wealthy figures being drawn toward something (likely a fashionable destination). 2. **"There's Life in the Old Mule Yet"**: A figure labeled "To the White House" depicts someone riding a mule, suggesting persistent political ambitions or a candidate refusing to fade from politics. 3. **"Fishing"**: A woman fishing, likely satirizing some contemporary leisure or social activity. 4. **"A Record Breaker—Reciprocity Wins"**: A horse race scene with "Reciprocity" winning, directly referencing the trade policy debate that dominated early 20th-century American politics—a major issue dividing Democrats and Republicans. The office-holder's dismissal ("Go Away You Kid, I Don't Like You") suggests political rejection or contempt for someone seeking favor.
