SOKOLSKY CENTURY THE HALF YEAR—V The two-party system had early entrenched itself in American life and by 1900, while other parties ex- | isted, they did not matter much. From Abraham Lincoln to Grover Cleveland’s first term, a pepiod of| 24 years, the Republican Party was | in office in Washington and most of the northern and wester states. It was the majority par and bespoke the expanding ecor omic power of the United States. Its strength lay in the farm popu-| lation and in the middle class. It| drew its leadership from the older, American population, rathe;. thay from among the newer imm ants. In the large cities even in the north, the Democrats possesse’ 1 creasing political effectiven par-i ticularly wherever citizens of Irish| | origin were numerous. In the south, the Democrats held full sway. No Republican could B¢ elected to office. This gave to those who controlled the mech: aism of! the Republican Party, a ..anij lative power over southern di gates, who, while they could pr’ duce no votes in elections have representation in conven- tions. In 1900, the big figure in| he Republican Party was not the President of the United States, Wil- liam McXinley, but the party chair- man, Mark Hanna, a businessman iof Cleveland, Ohio, who had res- cued the party from Grover land and who had czieate Jennings Bryan. Mark Hanna was an extraordin- arily ccmpetent party manager who integrated the functioning of the National Committee, the pre- sidency ,the representation in Con- gress, and the state organizations. The Republican Party was organ- ized almost as tightly as a British| political party, falling apart, how-| ever, under Theodore Roosevelt, who sought to dominate and con- trol the party through the Presi- dency. Neither the Republican nor Democratic Parties ever really suc- ceeded in becoming “membership” organizations, in the sense that the leadership reflected the views of the rank and file, Rather, they both developed into congeries of “great men,” of personalmes rather than expressions ‘of principle. Theodore Roosevelt even broke with his party, establishing one of his own, the Progressive Party, more familiarly known as the Bull Moose. This defection led to thel defeat ot William Howard Taft for reelection. Woodrow Wilson, who succeeded Taft, gave to the Democratic Party a new orienta- tion, moving away from the south- ernets who were as conservative on the whole, as the northern Re- pablicans. He brought in govern- ment, particularly during the years of World War I, a host of intel- lectuals out of the universities, ex- perts in small phases of govern- mental problems. . This element, more or less, continued during the presidencies of Harding, Coolidge and Hoover and swelled to great proportions during the adminis- tration of Franklin D. Rooscvelt. The administrations of Harding and Coolidge were during periods of ferocious prosperity, and it appear- ed that the Republican Party would remain in office forever. In fact, in 1928, when Herbert Hoov- er ran against Al Smith, the Re- publicans even managed to invade the Solid South—partly on account « i Governor of the State of New York | was elected to the Presidency aid altered the nature of the Demo- cratic_ Party.
