An inspiring scene at M'Kinley drew almost unparalleled enthusiasm as the event showcased graceful dance performances and vibrant energy inducing strong audience engagement throughout.
Philadelphia June 22 President McKinley was renominated by the Republican National Convention and Theodore Roosevelt was chosen to stand beside him. The crowd erupted in a tumultuous, sustained display of support with multiple delegates and state banners flooding the arena as Roosevelt prepared to second the nomination. The scene included dramatic speeches by Foraker and Hanna, intense cheering, and photographers capturing the heroic reception for Roosevelt as he prepared to address the convention.
The convention renominated McKinley for president and Roosevelt for vice president amid loud demonstrations. Roosevelt was praised for his Cuba service, with speeches by Depew and others as the band played the same air. The platform urged sound money, protection, pensions, isthmian canal, and self rule for territories while condemning attempts to disenfranchise blacks.
The platform defends the gold standard and currency parity, opposes free silver coinage, and warns against a Democratic president weakening credit. It endorses cooperative capital, expanding foreign trade, and protecting American labor through tariff policy while praising public schooling and self-government at home and in Cuba under a policy of independence and law.
