Excerpt from The South Atlantic Quarterly, Vol. 21: January, 1922Lincoln during the Civil \var. Theodore Roosevelt led the at tack with his usual vehemence, had not Wilson repudiated the. Panama deal of Roosevelt's administration and negotiated a treaty to pay Colombia for what she had lost in the deal? Then, too, Roosevelt was a regular party man except when he deemed it necessary to chastise his party for departing too far from his counsels and policies.Many Democratic leaders liked little better than did the Republicans. Regular party politicians never like men who refuse to be controlled by party counsels, the determined leadership of Lincoln, Cleveland and Roosevelt also had met strong opposition within their parties. Men like Champ Clark of Missouri (entirely aside from his own candidacy), Taggart Of Indiana, Smith and Nugent of New Jersey, Murphy of Tammany Hall, Thomas S. Martin of Virginia, and other old line Democratic leaders had not wanted to nominate Wilson in 1912 and had never ceased to regret the choice. Party con siderations forced them to give nominal and outward support to the \vilson administration, but they grew very weary of their superman leader.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
