Roosevelt, candidate for Vice- President as Wi 2eking his second Presid rm, made 673 speeches, trav- 21209 miles in 24 states and | 567 towns and cities. Bryan | hung up the high mark of| 559 speeches in his 1896 campaign. | Fresident McKinley, like Calvin{ Coolidge, grew politically strongei | in the' sunshine of a risi of prosperity. Sagacious Hmm then generalissimo of hlican political forces, saw it Un most poient cam- full mwm pa was pounded in volers. Strons Raze an of 1800 ars of the Bryan Makes Despite prosperity, B: N made a remarkakly strong race. Somej political observers were of the opin-| ion that Bryan might have won | " the Presidency if Theodore Ro velt had not been McKinl ning mate and campaigner tracrdinary. Roosevelt, rough of “rugged individs | “sound nationalism,” bree | through ‘the country, Winning fa- | vor particularly in the west and offsetting the strength of Bryan among the plain people. McKinley was placid in triumph | and “the cowboy” resting at Oy ter Bay dreamed of greater glory | —glory that came most unexpect- | edly. | Hoover Then in China Along about this time was a mining engineer in who was uninterested in politics. His name was Herbert C. Hoover. | Coming up in the New York Democracy was Alfred E. Smith, | clerk of the Commissioner of Jur-| ies. In vogue were electric belts, flcece-lined women's underwear, taffy-puffs, hypnotists and enam- " eled beds. Cakewalks, coon songs, and rag-time syncopation were “all, the rage.” Conny “Slats” Mack was the aggressive catcher-manager of the Milwaukee baseball team. | In 1901 an assassin’s bullet kill- | ed President McKinley. Vice- President Roosevelt, fifth cousin of the then young Franklin D. Roose- velt, present New York Governor, stepped up to McKinley’s chair at the age of 43. “Teddy” a Colorful President The bronzed and “bully” Roose- veit, the gracious wife and lively children moved into the White] House to spend seven of the most | colorful years that historic man- sion has ever known. The “great- est showman” of the Presidents was astride the G. O. P. elephant | and he rode him as wigorously as| a cowboy rides & horse. By his espousal of the people’s cause in the big coal strike and by | other progressive actions, Roose-| velt stole much of Bryans thun- der. He came to be regarded as) a radical and so the Democrats | turned to the conservative wing, gave Bryan his first defeat de- spite his dramatic appeal for a progressive platform. With the “great commoner” out of the race, Alton B. Parker, con-| servative New York judge, defeat- ed William Randolph Hearst, then | a 41-year-old Congressman, for the 'Democratic nomination. But thel| 1904 ‘campaign was tame.
