Republican Harmony Won’t Ensure a Walkover Next Fall
The author warns Philadelphia Republicans that unity and boastful pride about McKinley’s administration do not guarantee victory in November. He cites internal ambivalence, resignations to imperialism debates, and six potential weak spots including imperialism, army canteen policy, Porto Rico, civil service, the Hay-Pauncefote Treaty, and the Sampson-Sehley dispute. The piece urges bold stance on a constitutional amendment for direct Senate elections and cautions that many votes remain unpledged.
