The Wasp — 1890 — page 375: what you’re looking at

What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising and editorial promotion** for *The Illustrated Wasp's* upcoming Christmas edition, not political satire. The main cartoon titled "AT THE DIMICRATIC CONVNTION" (likely "Democratic Convention," though text is unclear) shows a chaotic scene where Chairman Murphy tells someone they're "out av order" and sick. The dialogue references being "put in the hell" at the convention—satirizing Democratic Party disorder or infighting during a state convention. The "BEHIND THE SCENES" section contains political commentary about a Republican nominee's private life, with an editor refusing to publish alleged scandals. The page otherwise consists of advertisements for grooming products and promotion of the upcoming holiday magazine edition.
