Ornament, James G. Blaine, 1884
notes: label: Description
content: In 1884 James G. Blaine and John A. Logan ran for president and vice president as Republican party nominees. Assailed from within his own party – by moralistic elites who considered Blaine corrupt and by workingmen who supported the third party Greenback movement which promised to make money more available – Blaine became the first Republican to lose a Presidential race since 1856, to Grover Cleveland.
