1898 New York Comic “No Opportunity for Criticism” 1898年的纽约漫画“没有批评的机会”

On the other side, Britain, France, Germany, Tsarist Russia, Japan, etc. are dividing the Chinese cakes. The sliced cakes are written with Wei-Hai-Wei (Weihaiwei), Coal Fields of Shan-Si (Shanxi Coal Mine), Ta-Lien -Wan (Dalian Bay), Port Arthur (Port Arthur), Hainan, Kai Chau (Jiaozhou), Taiwan…

Uncle Sam (USA) was at another table with a small Cuban cake on the plate, a decanter labeled “Philippine Islands”, and a bottle labeled “Porto Rico”, The United Kingdom winked at the United States, the United States maintained a gentleman’s demeanor, Germany and Tsarist Russia were very dissatisfied, and Japan was secretly amused.

Americans dare to paint anything. The emperors of Germany, Japan and Russia have been painted in, the French president is the president, and the Italian king Umberto I and the Austrian emperor Franz Joseph I are the ones who are envious on the railings.

1898年的纽约漫画“没有批评的机会”
那头,英国、法国、德国、沙俄、日本等在分China蛋糕,一块块切了的蛋糕写着Wei-Hai-Wei(威海卫)、Coal Fields of Shan-Si(山西煤矿)、Ta-Lien-Wan(大连湾)、Port Arthur(旅顺口)、Hainan、Kai Chau(胶州)、台湾…

Uncle Sam(美国)在另一桌,餐盘里是一块小小的蛋糕古巴,桌上有个标有“Philippine Islands”的醒酒器,和标有“Porto Rico”(波多黎各)的瓶子.

英国朝着美国眨了下眼,美国保持了君子风度,德国、沙俄表情很不满足,日本偷着乐.

美国人什么都敢画,德日俄的皇帝都被画进去了,法国的是总统,趴在栏杆羡慕着的是意大利国王翁贝托一世和奥地利皇帝弗朗茨·约瑟夫一世.
