the commission by one vote de-
clared Hayes elected The coun-
try was within a hairs breadth
Of another civil war. But Hayes
did his utmost TO pacify the NAL
contents. This did him little
good with his own party.
Meanwhile Grant made tour
OF the world and was greeted
with such homage that move
ment was set on foot 10 nominate
him for a return TO office. There
was a great protest against giving
any man a third term but Grants
partSans said that the four year
interval had taken the curse of.
Yet tho very idea struck such
horror into the public mind that
clubs OF men pledged TO scratch
Grant name were formed. They
called the selves the Young
lSCratchers. An anti-third- term
convention was held in st. Louis
in 1880
AT the regular Republican con-
,ention IN Chicago on June 2,
1880. Grant was bitterly opposed
+ by James G.. Blaine. whom his
nominator dubbed The Plumed
/ knight" Thirty ballots were
cast with interludes Of blazing
oratory and secret trading
But neither could WIN ma
iority. Republican leader Roscoe
Conklng lost control when he
tried 10 put over the Democratic
unit rule. by which the majority
of a states delegates won the
vote. The convention agreed that
roll calls by states must record
divided vote.

GARFIELD Is NAMED

James A. Garfield had been ac-
tive in defeating the throttling
unit rule four years before and he
persuaded Conkling TO give up the
effort 10 force il on the conven-
| ton.
For 30 ballots the convention
struggled and at last there came
a shift and a stampede 10 Gar
field as the dark horse. With him
they coupled the former Quarter
master-Gen. Arthur.
A convention Of the Greenback
party was held The Prohibition
party met and nominated a tee
totaler.
When the Democrats met, Tam
many Hall prevented Samuel J.
Tilden from having another
chance. Twenty candidates bat
tied for the nomination. The
problem was 10 find somebody
whom the North would 90 fog.
and the South would tolerate.
PICK GENERAL. TOO
Finally. since the Republicans
had chosen two generals. the
Democrats put forward a third.
Gen. Hancock.
Ten million votes we're cast and
Garfield won by only 10000. A
year later he was aSsasSinated by
4 man who said that he hoped
by removing Garfield TO heal the
dissensions in the party.
Vice President Arthur made a
fine record, but the panic OF 1878
was still eXerting its dire influ-
ence 1C years later and, as usual,
the President got the blame for H.
The turmoil brought forth con-
ventions Of greenbackS. laborites,
prohibtionists, and women's right
lists.
