CONCERNING
MR. McCUTCHEON’S CARTOONS

THOSE who have studied and admired Mr. McCutcheon’s cartoons in thedaily press doubtless have been favorably impressed by the two eminentcharacteristics of his intent. First, he cartoons public men withoutgrossly insulting them. Second, he recognizes the very large andimportant fact that political events do not fill the entire horizon ofthe American people. It has not been very many years since the newspapercartoon was a savage caricature of some public man who had been guiltyof entertaining tariff opinions that did not agree with the tariffopinions of the man who controlled the newspaper. It was supposed tosupplement the efforts of the editorial in which the leaders of theopposition were termed “reptiles.”

¶ The first-class, modern newspaper seems to have awakened to the factthat our mundane existence is not entirely wrapped up in politics. Also,that a man may disagree with us and still have some of the attributes ofhumanity.

¶ In Mr. McCutcheon’s cartoons we admire the clever execution, and thegentle humor which diffuses all of his work, but I dare say that morethan all we admire him for his considerate treatment of public men andhis blessed wisdom in getting away from the hackneyed political subjectsand giving us a few pictures of that every-day life which is our realinterest.
