History of Cari. cature, A ARTOONISTS, born, not of a cartoon | 0 Hes Cons ceived solely within the brain of thedraughtsman and brought into be- ing independent of outside suggestion, yet even the carleaturist ssed of original ideas is frequently called into the sanctum of the mai where suggestions from the chief and his corps of editorial writers are welghed and the theme of the day's leading ink and idea concoction is de- termined upon. The art of caricature as we have it and as we know it is a product of the nineteenth century, and, while in the United States it occuples a place of im- portance, it is one of the few innova- tions of the past hundred years that this country was slow to develop. “While the impulse to satirize public men is probably as old as if not older,” say Arthur Bartlett Man- rice and ['al Cooper In like poets, are mand "The theme POSS aging editor, satiric verse, Frederick Tabor thelr “History of the Nineteenth Cen- tury In Caricature,” “the political toon as an eff | public opinion of modern conditions The birt} beglinnis althoug! famous, witive agent is essent and methods.’ did not start nex eral of the most f in the appearing the Clevel most strongly obnoxiou cause of the tattoo marks that spelled out the word “bribery” drawn on the figure representing him. Mr. Blaine was dissuaded from prosecuting the publishers of Puck after the strongest pressure had brought to bear to turn him from his resolve. Curious to relate, Bernard Gillam was an ardent Republican, voting for Blaine, and was suggesting equally searing caricatures of Cleveland and the Democratic party for Puck's rival, Judge, at the same time he was execut ing his historically famous tattooed man cartoon, Coming down to recent years, the cartoonist found In the Spanish war, the Dreyfus case, the South African war and the trusts some valuable ma- terial for the outlet of his artistic en- ergy. The carleaturist of today stands well up in his profession, though his creations, on the whole, display per haps no better draughtsmanship than his predecessors had the reputation of éxecuting.
