 Digital Archive Japan / DAJ, No Rough-Ianism, 1866. A clean and respectable artisan tells a vagabond, who is armed with stones and a broken branch, that his type of help is not required. Broken railings can be seen in the background. Many ordinary artisans wished to distance themselves from the vast mass of roughs that joined in their protests. This cartoon relates to the great riot in Hyde Park during July 1866. The Reform League had planned to hold a political demonstration in the park, however, Mr Walpole, the new Home Secretary, had banned the demonstration on the premise that the park should be devoted to the quiet recreation of the people. However, some of the crowd broke down railings in Park Lane in order to gain admittance to Hyde Park and a battle ensued between the rougher elements of the working class and the police. From Punch, or the London Charivari, August 4, 1866. |
 Digital Archive Japan / DAJ, Two Drops of Comfort, 1871. A publican holds up a notice detailing the latest proposed government measures whilst one of his regulars keeps a firm grip on his beer with one hand, whilst he daintily grips his chaser with the other. The cabbys long whip rests in the crook of his arm. At this time Henry Austin Bruce was Home Secretary and this cartoon relates to his new Licensing Bill. This proposed that people should have access to a selection of respectable public houses. It also proposed that local magistrates should assume licensing responsibility as well as determining the numbers of public houses in their areas. Regulations of opening hours for both rural and urban areas were included in the Bill. This Bill met with considerable opposition from an increasingly powerful temperance movement, as well as from drinkers and breweries. From Punch, or the London Charivari, April 15, 1871. |
