 The Senator made no mention or either of the other amendments it seems that the friends of the other turo nroposed amendments are willing for them to so by default in so Tar q this part of the State is concerned.

continuation in the Roosevelt cheers at Chicago and the Bryan cheers ct Den
 yer this year.
 The campaign of 1852 was affected
 to a considerable degree by two side
 shows that were running--the pro-
 hibition movement and the woman's suffrage propaganda. The suffragettes held a great national convention which
 was attended by women from all over
 the Northern States. most of them
 attfred in "bloomers." Elizabeth Cady
 Stanton and Susan B. Anthony were
 two prominent figures. The prohibi-
 ton movement did not enter into na-
 tionai politics. but 1t was q great fact
 or in state and congressional contests.
 The situation in that regard in 1854
 was very similar to the conditions of
 the present campaign of 1908.
 When the election was over and
 Scott was defeated. Horace Greeley
 seriously proposed that the Whigs rA-
 organize in favor of restriction of slavery to its then present bounds and
 the abolition of the liquor traffic. But
 it was William H. Seward and naf
 Horace Greeley who was to found tho new party of the northern and eastern
 states. The Free Soil party had lost
 all its influence and the genuine Apo litionists were denouncing the Consti- tuition. Everything was ripe for tho new party WHICH was eo Sc SS@~ wv years later.
 The election of Pierce to be presi- dent was known all over the country the morning after the election. It was the first time that the people had not been forced to wait for weeks to learn tho result of the general elect ion. Four years before the states had voted on the same day for electors for the first time. but the telegraph was very limited in its scope and use. In 1852 the wires had been extended to all parts of the country. The new line between Washington and New
 Orleans had been completed but a few weeks when election day came around. but the New Orleans Picayune proudly announced that the offics would stay open all night for the reception and reading of election bulletins. The good people of that Southern city knew that Pierce had been elected before they went to bed.
 When it was all over the. country | breathed easier. The Democrats had been restored to power by an over whelming and non-sectional vote. Peo- pie hoped and believed that the com l promise of 1850 would stand. and that the agitation of the slavery question | would die out. They deluded, but their honest belief at the time explains
 many things that seem to be unrea- | sonable in the light of later events. Copyright. 1908. by Frederic J. Haskin1 Txt The Buchanan-F-remonf-F more Race of 1856.

Presidential Campaigns
VIE--7he Pierce-Scott Race of 1852
By Fredric J. Haskin.

James Buchanan, Stephen A. Douglas and William L. Marcy were the prin- cipals. but from the first it was be- lieved that a. Clark horse" would win. Sam Houston. then a senator from Texas, who had been governor of Ten- nessee and president of the Republic of Texas. was a formidable possibility for awhile. But Houston had lately become a "maineac," that is to say he had become O tee-totaller and a pro- hibitionist and was in favor of the extension of the Maine Liquor Law to all the states. Persons holding such views in those days were called "maineacs."
 On the thirty-ffth ballot in the De- mocratic convention the Virginia de- legation plumped a solid vote for Franklin Pierce of New Hampshire. whose name had not been mentioned in the convention although the New York Herald had suggested him as the pos sible dark horse." That started the ball, and Pierce was nominated on the forty-ninth ballot. Pierce had a good record as a politician. had serv- ed with some distinction as a briga- dier-general in the war with Mext- co, and had the negative strength of being compromise man.
 When Pierce was nominated the Democrats did not yet know how many iulStdhGS ItHcTdl oCOtL WOufQ make or how many letters he would write. They only knew that the whigs were certain to nominate him and that he was a war hero. It was in the fright ened effort to get hero to match a hero that Houston was proposed. and that Pierce was selected. Yet how few Americans remember today that Franklin Pierce had a war record in Mexico?
 The Pierce nominated was fha first in which the onlooking galleries in a national convention took part. When Plerce's name was first voted for. a New Hampshire delegate. wild with excitement. invited the people In the galleries to join in the cheering. They accepted the invitation. despite the precedent that had always obtained, forbidding the galleries to cheer or applaud. The result was the first convention "demonstration." It lasted for eight minutes. Thus was begun the unhappy custom which found its
