What you’re looking at

This page contains four political cartoons satirizing judicial figure(s), likely from the 1880s-90s based on style. "The Old Scarecrow Is Down" depicts someone knocked over by political forces. "Sat Upon by Nebraska" shows a figure crushed by the state, suggesting political defeat. "Wickersham Making a Monkey of the Elephant" appears to reference Republican politics, with an elephant (Republican symbol) being manipulated. "A Hard Bump" and "Will He Mind the Signal?" depict a figure on wheels encountering obstacles, possibly satirizing someone's political trajectory or reversals. Without clearer identification of the specific judge or political figure being attacked, the precise historical events remain unclear, though the cartoons uniformly mock someone's political fortunes and competence.
