He did. None will question that Roosevelt took into re- tirement the approval and benediction of a majority of his countrymen, and he was succeeded in the Presidency by the man of his choice. It is true that Gen. Grant was succeeded by a member of his own party, but the real verdict of 1876 was for Tilden and the Democrats, even if it should be conceded that Hayes was elected in ac- cordance with the legal technicalities. Tilden re- ceived a large majority of the popular votes and the Democrats elected the Congress. Grant's Admin- Istration was repudiated in 1876 just as it had lost| the elections in 1874. Pierce was suceeeded by a member of his own party, but he had been defeated for renomination | by Buchanana. The first Harrison, Taylor, Lincoln, Garfield, McKinley and Harding were taken from | the White House fo their graves. They died while / in office. Van Buren, Tyler, Polk, Filimore, Buchan- an, Johnson, Hayes, Arthur, the second Harrison, Cleveland, after his second Administration, Taft and Wilson quit the Presidency with the consciousness that the majority of the people were opposed to their Administration policies.
