school authorities. however, thought it
rather late i'm the season to undertake
camping the boys over night and this

they did not agree on questions of public
policy. The great issue before the people
was how to solve the problem Of dealing
with British and French interference with
American commerce.
For a time, beginning about 1908, almost
the entire merchant shipping business Of
the world was conducted by Americans
The titanic struggle between Napoleon
and all the other powers of Europe had
driven from the seas the ships of every
belligerent nation except England, and
even the British ships were forced to be
cautious. and British wares were carried
in American bottoms. This shipping bust
ness was vastly profitable and was world
wide. From Africa, from China, from
South America. from Java, from the
Philippines, from the West Indies, from
every exporting port in the world Ameri-
can ships carried cargoes to the United
States. there to be landed and neutral
lied before being reshipped for European
ports.
While England was striking at France
to maintain and establish the British
supremacy of the seas, that supremacy
was in fact about to be taken away by
England's lately revolted colonies. In
1901 Great Britain began to harass Ameri-
can shipping by laying a series of paper
blockades and by again insisting upon the
right to seize American ships and search
them for deserving British seamen.
Napoleon in his efforts to cripple England
did not purpose to permit British manu-
featured wares to reach the continent I'M
der the alleged neutral protection of the
American flag. and SO he issued the
famous DEGREES of Berlin and Milan. Be-
tween English orders in council and
French imperial DEGREES" the prosperous
American merchant marine was paraiyZ-
ed. American ships and cargoeS were
confiscated in European ports and British
men-of-war insulted and harassed Ameri-
can vessels in every possible manner.

Unable and unwilling to- protect Ameri-

can ports to the ports of any foreign

American act of Congress. The embargo
created the greatest indignation in New
England, but it caused even greater suf-
fering in the strongly democratic states
of the south. New England still had it's
fisheries and its budding manufactures.
The embargo act was a most complete
protection against foreign competition.

vania profited more than 1t lost. But Vir-
ginia was paraIyzed.

which. instead of forbidding all COM
merce. prohibited only that with Eng
land and France.
In the meantime the British arrogance
was becoming more and more intolerable.
British warships insOlently patroled the
entrances to Chesapeake bay and New
York harbor. The British ship Leopard
captured and searched the American
frigate Chesapeake within a few miles of
Norfolk. The people were furious. but
neither Jefferson nor Madison was willing
to go to war to avenge the honor of the
republic.
When the campaign Of 1910 opened the
people OF the whole country were furious
against England. With one voice they
cried for war. They disapproved of the
weak and vacillating policy of Madison
and Jefferson. but they hated even more
the federalists. who were openly sympa-
thizing with England. They resolved to
elect Congress which would substitute
aggressive measures for defensive poll
cies. and yet they were unwilling to turn
out the democrats by voting In the feder-
alists.
In nearly every congressional district in
the whole country the younger and more
hot-headed element in the democratic
party put forward a candidate for Con-
aggression, even to the extent Of favor
ing second war with England. These
candidates were nearly all young men,
and the movement responsible for their
candidacy took on the name of Young

At the same time the federalists los,

when the new Congress met the House
was composed Of SO federalists and 105
democrats, while in the Senate there were
only federalists and 80 democrats. The
victory was complete, young America was

adoption of the Constitution. 1t no longer
feared the possibility Of monarchical es-

was accepted, the Union was formed and

The young America" political move
ment which triumphed in the COMPRESSION
al elections Of 1910 was the result OF a
radical and progressive revolution within
the ranks of the acknowledgements
party. 1t resulted in changing the char
acter Of the democratic party. In substi-
tuting a radial progressive policy for a
conservative and non-aggressive program,
and it brought into public life the second
generation Of great American statesmen.
The young Americans-or the young repuo-
licans, as the factionalists were called
were led by Henry Clay and John c. Cal
houn, by Richard NJ. Johnson and Felix
Grundy, by Langdon Cheves and George
NJ Group. Not one of these men at this
time was more than forty years old. They
were, indeed and in truth. young Ameri-
cans and young republicans They also
we're the first insurgents in American
political history. and it is interesting to
note that they accomplished their revo-
lutionary purposes In an off year cleo
ton.
The federalist party never recovered
from the crushing blow of 1850. and the
democratic majority in Congress 1ncreaS-
ed with every biennial election during the
eight years of Jefferson's two adminstra-
tions. But, Notwithstanding the over
Whe,ming preponderance of the demo-
cratic party and the great popularity OF
MIR. jefferson, the last years of his ad-
ministration were far removed from po-
litical peace. When the time came to
choose his successor in 1905 the federalists
attempted to galvanize their party into
new life, but the gains they made were
not sufficient to give them control either
of the electoral colleges or the Congress
In the House they increased their vote
from thirty-one to forty-six. in the Sen
ate from seven to ten. and in the electoral
college from fourteen votes given against
Jefferson in 1904 to forty seven votes
given against Madison. Madison received
10 electoral votes and went into Office
backed by majority OF more than two to
one in both the Senate and the House.

Party Leaders.

the second epoch in the personnel OF
American craftsmanship. It resulted in
bringing Clay and Calhoun into party
leadership; 1t brought John Quincy Adams
into the democratic fold; it destroyed the
dominancy of federalism even in Massa-
chusetts: it made inevitable the war OF
1872, and it confirmed the national indie
pendence and the national responsibility
Of the American republic.
The election of 1910 made certain the
continued dominancy of the democratic
party by effecting radical and funda-
mental revolution in the doctrines and
tenets of that organization. Young re-
pub .icanism had the sympathy and sup
port of practically all the people, to the
extent that ten years later Monroe re-
ceived every electoral vote but one, and
even that one was cast for another
democrat. Fourteen years later there was
but one party In the Countrywide demo
cratic.
