with Indifference and prevent the wish
from fathering the thought that Harrison
would win. Quay by his masterful hand

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTIONS.
XXuI-The Third Party Movement.
By Frederic J. Haskin.

The election of 1892 holds the distinc-
ton of being the only one since 1850
where more than two candidates received
votes for President in the electoral col
leges. and practically everybody comedies
that the forthcoming election will be like
the Cleveland d-Harrison-Weave race in
that respect. The present campaign bears
another striking resemblance to that of
1892. There was a President running for
reelection, opposed by an eXPresident.
The third candidate in that race diff
fered from Mr.. Wilson in that he had
previously run for President on a minor
ticket.
Harrison had been elected over Cleve-
land four years before by New York s
swinging from the democratic to the re-
publican column n the face of the fact
that Cleveland had hundred thousand
more popular votes in the country than
Harrison. Some two thousand votes had
turned the tide to Harrison in Indiana
and there were close returns in other
states. The closeness of the vote in
many states and the popular ma jority for
Cleveland, admonished the republicans
that if they would hold the presidency in
1877 they would have to adopt some eX-
traordinary measures. They started out
ny creating SIX new states In the nope
of giving themselves twelve new repu6-
lican senators and twenty additional
votes in the electoral colleges.
In order to carry forward their ideas
they did what was in those days recog-
niZed on all sides as legitimate politics
unseated enough of the opposition in the
House to afford a comfortable working
majority. After that the House passed
the noted force bill, which had for its
purpose the federal control of elections
fhn ri nf y,cr
the negro the privileges of the suffrage.
But the Senate killed it by talking it to
standstnl and holding it tnere until
they could win over enough republican
votes to prevent its passage. Senator
Daniel of Virginia had won over Senator
Stanford of California, at ; o'clock in
the morning, and hobbled into the Senate
chamber on his crutches to tell Senator
Vest he might as Well stop talking. Vest
finished his speech, however, and the
force bill was dead.

But beyond the handicap of its legisla-

hampered by the personality of the Presi-
dent. A man of high purpose and po-
litical integrity, Mr.. Harrison was one of
those cold. repelling personalities. who

in the White House, because of the dif-
ference in the atmosphere which greeted
visitors. And to hear the democrats tell
about it, Mr. Cleveland himself could
sometimes make its historic rooms as
chilly as an Alaskan snowbank.
Few OF Harrison's party associates
liked him. The late Senator Hoar de-
ciared that If Harrison were talking to
10000 men in crowd he would make
friends of all of them, but that if he were
to see each one individually he would
anger them all. Senator Lodge declared
that Harrison never was able to grant
request from senator without assum-
ing the attitude that he was comforting a
great favor.
Harrison had Blaine as his Secretary
of state. and the latter complained bit
terly Of the treatment he received at the
hands of his chief. He told Senator Gull
lom that Harrison ignored him and his
| family. and had studiously neglected to
| treat him as one man ought to treat
another. On the other hand. Harrison
| complained of Blaines treatment He
| said that just prior to the opening of the
| campaign he had acted as Secretary of
| State for year and had. with his own
| hands. prepared the documents of the
department that should have been pre-
pared by Blaine. He said he did not
mind carrying soldiers knapsack when
the soldier was tired and foot-sore but
| that he did think some evidence of ap-
probation should be shown for the serv-
| ice. He added that he had kept the
originals of the State Department docu-
ments he had written, and that he in
| tended to show some day just how Blaine

doing so. Cullom says it was a case Of
Harrison being jealous of his lieutenant

Many people think if Blaine had been an

as it was called nominated Gen. James
