less than a concerted effort to pre-
vent the Texas question from being
made an issue in the presidential cam
paign.
The Democratic convention. how
ever. was not satisfied with Van
Buren's position, his announcement
nor with his candidacy as it now de-
veloped. Although he was still the
choice of a majority of the delegates
In the Democratic convention, he was
defeated for the nomination by the
operation of the rule which required a
twe-thirds majority to nominate and
which had now come to be a per-
manent feature of all Democratic con-
lot James X. Polk. the first dark
horse in the history of the presidency,
received the nomination Tor president
and George NJ. Dallas for vice presi-
dent. The convention adopted a plat
form declaring in favor of the re-
annexation OF Texas at the earliest
possible moment.
A third convention was held at Bal
tfmore at the same time, and Presi-
dent Tyler was renominated, but be-
ing soon convinced that his following
was pitifully feeble, he quickly with
drew in favor Of Polk.
During the progress of the cam
paign Polk maintained a dignified
silence on the slavery question, al
though his party platform favored the
annexation OF Texas. In the mean
time Clay, being convinced that
annexation sentiment was on the in
crease, wrote a letter to a friend say
ing that he would be glad to see
Texas annexed on fair and just terms.
In view of his previous position
against annexation this appeared to
many OF Clay's friends as trimming.
and it cost him many votes in north
ern states. Enough anti-slavery
Wings in New York and Michigan
were turned against him to give the
states to Polk. Even Pennsylvania
went for Polk because of an I'M
fortunate belief. which proved utterly
groundless, that Polk was a better
tariff man than Clay.
The result of the election was a
walkaway for Polk. He received an
electoral majority of IS, carrying 10
states to IL for the Wings.
Clay was utterly heart broken by
the result and he never regained his
former strength. He wrote to a
friend that he considered that heavy
blow had fallen on his country. Tyler
interpreted the result of the election
as a popular verdict in favor of
annexation. and the effort toward
taking Texas into the Union was re-
doubled, with the result that Texas
soon became. by congressional action,
part Of the Union, although the vic
tory was only sustained after a war
with Mexico.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1908-10-17

The question of the annexation of
Texas was the ruling factor in the
campaign of 1874. During the ad-
ministration of President Tyler, who
inherited the presidency because of
the death of William Henry Harrison,
the Texas annexation problem had
been pre-eminentlyi the issue of the
hour. An annexation treaty had the
unqualified support of Tyler and was
the principal undertaking of his ad-
ministration.
While the Texas treaty was before
the senate the national conventions
of the Democratic and Wing parties
met at Baltimore. Tyler had run
four years before as vice president on
the Wing ticket. but had entirely
alienated all Wing support by the
course he pursued in office. He was
therefore definitely out Of the running
when the Wing nomination came to
be made. 1t was but natural that
Wing sentiment should again turn
toward Henry Clay. who four years
previously had been railroaded out of
the nomination by an ingenious device
of unit voting which had swept away
the plurality which he had when the
convention first met, and which had
his head. After his defeat in 1910
Clay had resigned from the senate
and had been living in retirement.
But he was still the most popular
man in America All over the coun-
try he was nominated by Whig meet
ings, by state legislatures and by
various other public and private
bodies. The enthusiasm for him was
Irresistible. His journeys across the
country were like triumphant
marches, and distinguished guests
from all parts of America and Eu-
rope sought him at his Kentucky
home. With one voice the Wing con-
vention gave him the presidential
nomination, which HIS friends claimed
he should have had four years before.
Theodore Frelinghuysen of New
Jersey was nominated for vice presi-
dent.
The proceedings Of the Democratic
convention were. not marked with
similar unanimity. AS the Wings had

ment to head their ticket so It seemed
that the Democrats also were des-

but he came from this retirement to
contest for the Democratic nomina-
ton of 1914.
Before either convention assembled.
while 1t appeared that Van Buren, and
Clay were to be the two probable
nominees, the two leaders met at
CIay's home and both agreed and an
nounced that they were opposed to
the immediate annexation of Texas, an
agreement which was nothing more or

TO us half a dozen volumes OF the several
publications. Four more plays are added

Munro contributes an edition Of Brookes
-Romeus and Juliet, the immediate source
from which Shakespeare drew the play.
In a painstaking introduction the editor
traces the story OF Romeo and Juliet in
all the forms in which il appeared before
Shakespeares time and points out those
to which he Ia indebted. He demolishes
pretty effectively all grounds for believing
that the story s In any degree historical.
Brooke's poem tells the story, but proves
also that the Elzabethans could write
