Blood lineage in America contrasted with hereditary power
Special Correspondence from Washington notes Simon Cameron’s death and Don Cameron’s Senate retirement signaling the decline of a prominent American family. The piece traces how American politics rarely passes power by blood, listing enduring clans such as Adams, Harrison, Clinton, Livingston, Trumbull, Breckinridge, and others, and concludes sons of famous men often must earn success on merit.
