OUR "KING PRESIDENTS"
COXTRASTED WITH OUR "CONGRES
SIONAL PnESIDE.'TS.,
An Interesting; Stndy in Political His
tory uy a Supporter of the Mc
Klnley Administration.
Ainslee's Magazine for April contains an
Interesting political article by George Ice
land Hunter, entitled "Our Congressional
Presidents." We make the following ex
tracts: It Is not a heathy sign for tbo people o
a nation always to be crying fcr a strong
man to protect them against the folly or
'Wickedness of their Legislators. It Indi
cates thai they have lost faith In their
ability to -work modern political institu
tions. It shows a fatal eagerness to shirk
political responsibility. During recent
years a majority of the newspapers of
Continental Europe have repeatedly as
eerted that only In England does Parlia
mentary government hold Its own. In
Germany an Emperor, conspicuous for en
ergy and resolution, has exalted the po
sition of the Executive, depressing cor
respondingly the position of the Reichstag.
In Austria, governmnt by Imperial de
cree .ha recently supplanted government
by the representatives of the people. In
Franco it has more than once seemed as if
the cnemls of popular govrnment would
succeed In their attempt to install a dic
tator. In the United States the power
of tbo President appeared at one time
ereatly to have increased, owing to the
personal forco and integrity of a man,
who, distrusting members of City Coun
ells. Legislatures, and Congress, had ve
toed his way into the Presidential chair.
The New York Nation, on the 15th of June,
1, 6aid: 'The faith In the saving power
of parliamentary institutions, so manifest
during the first half of this century, has
given way to scepticism and distrust
Seventy-five years ago the people's dear
est Interests were cheerfully Intrusted to
the wisdom of a Legislative Assembly.
... The, forefathers fought for repre
sentative government, as the only guaran
tee of civil and political liberty; the sons
cry out that the blessings are small and
"the evils are great."
It is quite true, as the Nation says, that
many today, doubt tho advantages of rep
resentative government, but It Is also true
that in the United States at the time of
the adoption of the Constitution there was
no undue confidence in Legislatures or
Congress. In pre-revolutlonary days, the
-American colonists retained an enthusias
tic affection for George III who, they ar
gued, had been deceived by bad councillors
long after they "had come to regard the
English Parliament with distrust and even
with hatred. During the Revolution they
aw more clearly the mistakes than the
virtues of the Continental Congress. And
when Independence had been won on the
battle-field, and military necessity no
longer constrained the dissatisfied, mur
murs against the inefficiency of the cen
tral Legislature became constantly
louder.
Consequently in the Constitutional con
vention there "were some so disgusted with
representative government that they were
almost ready to vote for hereditary mon
archy, and felt that at the very least the
Executive should have the power of abso
lute veto. Others, radically republican,
still adhered to the Idea of a Parliament
responsible only to the people and unham
pered by executive interference. 'me re
sult of the compromise, which permits a
two-thirds majority of each house to over
ride a veto, has been to preserve in a
marvelous manner the balanco of power
between the Executive and the legislative
departments.
For convenience, I shall call Presidents
who have been free users of the veto pow
er "King Presidents," and their opposltes
"Congressional Presidents." The moat
striking examples of the "King President"
are the two Democrats, Jackson and
Cleveland, and the two Republicans, John
son and Grant: the most striking examples
of the "Congressional President" are the
two Democrats. Jefferson and Monroe, and
the two Republicans, Lincoln and iicKln
ley. "King Presidents" have been inspired by
the Idea that tney were the special and pe
culiar representatives of the people chosen
to protect the people against other repre-
Kauuves. jacKson. Deing able to persuade
the people that he was right, greatly ex
alted the authority of the chief magistrate.
"When one Congress fought him, the peo
ple cent him another that was suhTnictdv
Johnson could not command the support of
me peupn.-, ana Dy nis attempt at absolut
ism exalted the power of Congrets. Grant,
though the idol of the people to the end,
could not get a submissive Congress.
Cleveland, who was swept Into office by a
wave of popular protest against existing
political abuses, retained the admiration
of the people well into his second term.
No President ever treated Congress with
such disdain as he.
Among "Congressional Presidents" Jef
ferson is an extraordinary example of tho
able politician. Avowedly and Intentional
ly he endeavored to show that he look-d
on Congress as the center of government,
on himself as the servant of Congress. TJot
ils personality was so attractive and
the party behind him so strong, that Con
gress almost without exception followed
his initiative. The result of the Jefter
eonian policy of allowing the representa
tives of the people to govern became ap
parent under Madison. The authority of
the President visibly declined.- During
the era. of good feeling." under Monroe,
the authority of Congress was greate
than at any other time in the history of
our country. It did not occur to a Presi
dent nominated in Congressional caucus to
resist the body that had made him. Under
Lincoln, tho authority of the President
which. In the Interval since Jackson, had
declined, noticeably increased. partly
owing to Lincoln's political ability, partly
to the opportunity of war.
As the veto is the bludgeon which the
masterful Executive employs to beat an
offeuoing legislative body into submission
It is clear that the number and import
ance of a President's vetoes will to a ccr
taln extent measure his elf-ossertlvens.

It will be noticed that Jackson, a man of
strong prejudices- which he sometime mis
took for principles, all the more ndaman
tlne of purpose because constitutionally
unable to see more than one side of the
shield, adapted by nature to military rath
er than civil command, showed his opin
ion of Congress by vetoing li bills, three
more tnan all his predecessors. Johnson
who also had an overconfidence In his
own Judgment, used the veto 21 timer
twice more than any predecessor except
Jackson, and suffered the extreme indig
nity of Tiaving 13 bills passed over lis
veto. Grant in his two terms wrote
veto messages. Cleveland, fresh from au
tocracy from Buffalo and Albany, wrote
301 in his first term over twice as many
as all tho 21 Presidents who preceded him
and 12 in his second term. 'Washington
wrote two, John Adams none, Jefferson
none, Monroe one. Van Buren none. Lin
coln thre Arthur four, McKlnley two.
Five bills were passed over Cleveland's
veto. Not a single member of either
lioui-o has yet voted In favor of passing
a bill over McKInley's veto.
. . . Jackson was the first President
to take the Napoleonic pose. His distrust
of Congress had not been lessened by the
fact that in 1S34. when the election was
thrown Into the House of Representatives.
John Quincy Adams was preferred to him
self. So. In ISIS, when elected by a largo
majority, -he was Quite In th mnnA in innt-
ob Congressmen as the (also representa-
Uves and himself as the only true repre
sentative of the people. And before long
the people, -worshiping him as the hero of
New Orleans, came to believe that he could
do no wrong, and that he was their pecu.
liar champion. The more enemies he made
among the rich, the Intelligent, the re
spectable, the firmer was his hold upon
the poor, the ignorant, the unfortunate.
He finally attained such regal position
that he was able to name his own suc
cessor. And Van Buren was by no means
the last Presidential candidate who
sought the shelter of General Jackson's
"ample military coat tail."
Yet, In 1S34, the Senate of the United
States, by a vote of 2S to 20, had passed
the following resolution to censure Jack
son for his course toward the Bank of
the United States: "Resolved. That the
President, in tho lato executive proceed
ings in relation to the public revenue, has
assumed upon himself authority and pow
er not conferred by the- Constitution and
laws, but in derogation of both." In sup
porting the resolution, Henry Clay ac
cused the President or "open, palpable,
and daring usurpation." After having
assumed all the powers of the 'Govern
ment, executive, legislative and Judicial,
he had ended by seizing the public purse,
as Caesar had seized the treasury of
Rome. "For moro than 15 years," said
Mr. Clay, "I have been struggling to
avoid tho present state of things. I
thought I perceived In some proceedings
(of General Jackson's) during the con
duct of the Seminole War, a spirit of de
fiance to tho Constitution and to -all law."
And Calhoun, comparing Jackson and his
followers with Caesar, said: " "With mon
ey I will get men. and with men money,'
was the maxim of the Roman plunderer.
With money we will get partisans, with
partisans votes, and with votes money.
Is the maxim of our public pilferers."
Grant's Administration is a most signal
illustration of the folly of rpecting the
military hero .to display the virtues of the
statesman. Tor certainly no more modest.
unassuming and well-intentioned man ever
lived in tho White House. His elghtn
and last message to Congress is almost
pathetic. In it he said: "It was my for
tune or misfortune to be called to tho
office of Chief Executive without any pre
vious political training. ... Under
such circumstances, it is but reasonable
to uppose that errors of judgment must
have occurred. . . . (But) failures have
been errors of Judgment, not of intent.1
Grant was unable to get over the military
habit- He could not force himself to al
low Congress to perform Its constitutional
duties unhampered. His vetoes were nu
merous, and not always 'well considered.
As John Sherman says: "The policy
adopted (by Grant as President), and the
controlling influences around him were
purely personal. He consulted but few of
the Senators or members, and they were
known as his personal friends. ... This
was a period of bitter accusation, extend
ing from the President to almost every
ono In public life. . . . General Grant
was so honest that he did not suspect oth
ers, and no doubt confided in and was
friendly 'with those who abused his confi
dence. It was a period of slander and
scandal."
Two Presidents, Johnson and Cleveland,
did not need military training to make
them Imperious. The first, desplto Con
gressional training, tho second, perhaps
for lack of It, attempted to override Con
gress. But as neither -was deified in the
eyes of the people by military glory, nei
ther had a lasting hold upon the affec
tions of the people. So that Congress
without fear of retribution passed 15 out
of 21 veto bills over Johnson's veto, and
the House of Representatives having im
peached him, the Senate failed by only
one vote to givo the two-thirds majority
necessary for conviction.
Johnson's extraordinary Inability to ap
preciate tho nature of representative gov
ernment appears in his address 'To the
People of the United States," Issued on
the occasion of his retirement from. the
Presidency. He gives an alarming de
scription of the dangers that "the govern
ment may be wholly subverted and over
thrown by a two-thirds majority in Con
gress," and laments because "encroach
ments upon the Constitution cannot bo
prevented by the President alone, however
devoted or determined he may be, and be
cause unless the people Interpose there is
no power under the Constitution to check
a dominant majority of two-thirds in the
Congress of the United States," and be
cause "the veto power lodged in the Exec
utivo by the Constitution for the Interest
and protection of the people, and exer
cised by Washington and his successors,
has been rendered nugatory by a partisan
majority of two-thirds in each branch of
the National Legislature."
Cleveland was. Indeed, on extraordinary
President in ordinary times. With ai nat
ural self-confidence multiplied a thousand
fold by his meteoric riso into National
prominence, he tried to manage Congress
by bulldozing it as he had previously man
aged the City Council of Buffalo and the
Legislature of New York. And although
ho failed to establish, like Jackson, an
all-powerful personal machine, and al
though, by 1S9I, he had succeeded In alien1
ating not only the representatives of the
people, but the people themselves, to such
an extent that the New York Tribune said,
"President Cleveland is politically tho
most lonely man on earth," he did suc
ceed in getting himself twice renominated
and once re-elected. ...
I should llko to say much about Lincoln,
the third of the "Congressional Presi
dents" whom I have named, for more
than any other he illustrates what enor
mous good can be done by tho skillful poli
tician. At a period when recrimination
was rife, when every defeat In battle
brought an avalanche of abuse upon the
administration, when those who were loyal
wero divided Into numerous cliques, each
with its panacea, Lincoln patiently and
gently waited until both Congress and
people wanted what he wanted, and
then acted immediately, vigorously,
effectively. Extremists were never
satisfied with Lincoln. They called him
an opportunist. They lost patience with
his dilly-dallying. They could not see
with the eyes of posterity which perceive
that Lincoln was right in refusing to Issue
the Emancipation Proclamation until the
critical moment had come.
Lincoln never hesitated to offer office to
thoso willing and able to help him. The
personnel of his Cabinet was always dic
tated by political considerations. He ob
tained the support of a great New York
newspaper by appointing Its editor min
ister to one of the European capitals. Ho
tried to settle factional quarrels In the
different states by the judicious bestowal
of patronage. Tho result of hla political
sagacity was that Congress trusted him
and the people trusted him. It was clear
that no personal opinion would be pre
ferred to the opinion of his constituents.
He appreciated his duty as representative
ns well as his duty to his own ideal. Con
sequently his opinion always received the
most respectful cons'deratlon from Con
gress, and had more persuasive Influence
than that of dictatorial Presidents.
The training of President McKlnley has
been such that he certainly ought to-be
a "Congressional President." He was a
member of the House of Representatives
for 13 years, during which he rose to the
position of leader of his party and took
part In much of tho most Important leg
islation. Here he learned to understand
the real motives of the averago Congress
man, and to appreciate the fact that many
of his fellow-members were men of
marked ability, and that most wero men
of honesty. Here he watched with impa
tience the non-Congressional attitude of
Cleveland. Here he became the acquaint
ance or friend of Republicans and Demo
crats who were later to support or op
pose the policies of his administration
Here ho acquired an intimate knowledge
of the working of the entire governmental
machine
President McKlnley Is at once a parti
san and a peacemaker. He has settled
many party quarrels, arid Is said never to
have been a participant In any. At times
he has shown a loyalty to others almost
too altruistic to seem credible in political
life.
The roost notable Instance was in 1$
when the Ohio delegation went to the Na
tional Republican Convention pledged for
Sherman. There were several candidates,
and the contest was prolonged. The dler
gates were becoming weary. There -was
an admirable chance for a "dark horse."
When It came to the sixth ballot some
one voted for William McKlnley. The
delegates cheered. The state following
gave him 17 votes. It looked Hke McKln
ley. His labors for Sherman, his pleas
for the Ohio Senator as he went from
delegation to delegation, "had won sup
port for himself. Then McKlnley, with a
stern look In his face, stepped on a chair
and began to speak. There was In his
voice a tone not natural to It, a defiant
tone. The Ohio delegation had been in
structed for Sherman, be said, and duty
forbade McKlnley to remain silent.
"I should, not respect myself If I could
find It In my heart to do. or to permit to
be done, that which could even be ground
for any one to suspect that I wavered in
my loyalty to .Ohio, or any devotion to
the chief of her choice and the chief of
mine. I do not request I demand that
no delegate who would not cast reflection
upon me shall cast a ballot for me,"
McKInley's nomination at tho St. Louis
Convention in K36 was the natural re
sult of his career as party leader. Other
Republican leaders as well as the Repub
lican rank and file called for McKlnley.
All were his friends, for he had antagon
ized -none. Hla election, they believed,
would promote the interests of the party
as well as tho interests of the country.
It is ni party leader that McKlnley has
been able to wield the vast Influence

which some complain of and others deny.
His party allies In Congress, to whom
some say he is too submissive, stand by
him through thick and thin. They are
alert to checkmate moves made against
him or his administration by political op
ponents. , In return, they reap the reward
that comes from the control of political
patronage. They take counsel -with the
President, and can therefore explain the
motives of the Administration to tho coun
try at large. They advise tho President,
and as he often gives in to them, they
are able with better grace to give In to
him upon occasion. President McKlnley
has not been content, however, to main
tain harmony within the ranks of his
own party. He has made numerous ef
forts to enlist the aid of political oppon
ents. It is hardly necessary to add, what
everybody knows, that he has done this
with remarkable, success.
Critics who are hostile to parliamentary
government In general, and to a "Con
gressional Prcslaent" in particular, find a
point of attack In the harmony that now
exists between Congress and tbe execu
tive. They see in this harmony the de
generacy of our Institutions.
Last year the New York Nation said:
'There was to be, while he (McKlnley)
was President, none of that Incessant
disagreement and quarreling between tho
Executive and Congress which marked
and .marred the second administration of
Mr. Cleveland. Instead of an irritable
and pig-headed President, we were to
have one all suavity and infinite tact, and
Instead of an Executive and Congress at
perpetual loggerheads, wo wero to see
tho two moving oh in spheric harmony.
Distinct, notice of the change to come
was served in Mr. McKInley's Inaugural
when he said:
" 'I do not sympathize, with the senti
ment that Congress in session is danger
ous to our business interests.' And there
was a veritable cry, "I'm wld ye, me
byes!' In his first annual message to Con
gress, of which the opening sentence was:
'It gives me pleasure to extend greeting
to tho Fifty-fifth Congress . . . with
many of whose Senators and Rcpresenta
tlvea I have been associated in tbe legis
lative service.' "
It cannot be denied that In harmony
there Is danger, and that when the wheels
of the governmental machine run smooth
ly we have quite as much need to be on
tho watch as when they creak. But hu
man nature is such that the average
citizen must bo, spurred to his civic duty
by the necessity of reform, and not until
corruption is rifo will ho exert himself
"to turn the rascals out." Then he calls
for non-compromisers to hold the .elec
tive offices. Then ho demands a "King
President." But Inasmuch as It is more
Important to do than to undo, and as con
structive statesmanship remains Impos
sible while the Executive devotes himself
to the task of thwarting Congress, and
Congress devotes itself to the task of
thwarting the Executive, there comes a
time for recrimination to cease. Then,
with Congress nnd a. "Congressional Pres
ident" working together, we begin to ap
preciate what a brilliant part In world
history belongs to the seventy million men
and women of the United States.
DREAMING.
Sitting alone la the draught's glow.
Dreaming of Jays of the long ago.
Laughing and clapping his hands in glee
This la a picture I often see.
As I walk down the street In the evening's
gloom.
And glance through a window Into a room.
Where an old man bHm In hla easy chair.
And dreams of the past which was rosy and
fair.
Around nun there throng from memory's ball.
The friends of his youth, and he loved them all.
And his children, the pride of his manhood's
prime.
To Ms deaf old ears. In a rhythmic rhyme.
Are singing the songs their mother sung
In the bygone days, when they both were
younr.
And he smiles with a Joy that la only known
To an old. old man, as he dreams alone.
Ills hair Is as white as the driven snow.
Ills face Is wrinkled, but his eyes are crlow.
As ha walks once again through the scenes of
hla youth,'
When he took for hta motto, Faith, Friendship
and Truth.
And now as he drifts down life's turbid stream
lie has .nothing to do but to dream, just to
dream.
Of the pictures and fancies that lie In the past.
Of joys elyslan, too fleetlug to last I
How I envy him thus, as he elts In his chair.
Weighed down by the rears, and the snow in
hla hair.
Fori know that ere long a vision more sweet
Tl-.an any his fancy has painted will greet
His dreamy old erea. And the land of the leal.
Will bring to him Joys that are lasting and real.
While I must toll on. unloved and alone.
With cot even a dream Z can claim as my own!
