The ¡Cu-Cut! incident, also known as La Cuartelada''', was an assault conducted by Spanish officers on the Catalan satirical magazine ¡Cu-Cut! offices in Barcelona on November 25, 1905 in response to the publication of a satirical cartoon mocking the Spanish military. Background Spanish military personnel had been a common target of ¡Cu-Cut!s editors because the Spanish Army had become an outdated and defective institution. Moreover, a sentiment prevailed in Barcelona that viewed the Spanish Army as the arm of a centralist and repressive government. General Valeriano Weyler and the role of the Spanish Army in the painful defeat in Cuba were recurrent topics of the magazine. The November 12, 1905 municipal elections in Barcelona were a success for the Lliga Regionalista, a Catalanist political party to which ¡Cu-Cut! was affiliated. Six days later, the Lliga organized a celebratory dinner at the Frontón Condal building. That was not liked by rival Lerrouxist Republicans. At the conclusion of the dinner, a fight ensued between two groups of people of the opposing political parties that resulted in a few injured.¡Cu-Cut!

According to La Vanguardia, at 9:30 pm on November 25, around 300 officers of the Barcelona garrison gathered in Plaza Real, headed towards the ¡Cu-Cut! offices, destroyed them and set them on fire. That was at the Bagunyà press and library on Avinyó Street, where the children's magazine En Patufet and the newspaper La Veu de Catalunya were also edited. Reactions Following the assault, the government suspended the magazine's publication. The next issue, No. 205, was not published until April 28, 1906. During this time, the ¡Cu-Cut! editor, Josep Baguñà, attempted to continue the publication of the magazine under a different name. Baguñà used Garba, an art and literature magazine edited by Joan Maragall, Víctor Català and Josep Pijoan to further ¡Cu-Cut! material. Garba issue No. 11 had a different format and included some sections with content nearly
