HAGEN ELMO SCOTT WATSON HISTORIC MI KDER i QNE hundred and ten years ago J a man was murdered and as a direct result of that crime we now j have, every four years, national ! conventions of delegates from every state and territory in the Union ' to nominate candidates for Presi. dent and vice - president. Here's I how it came about: In 1826 William Morgan of Bal tavia. N. Y., published a book which purported to reveal the secrets of Freemasonry. Soon after! wards he disappeared and the Masons were not only accused of having kidnaped him and drowned hint* j in the Niagara river but also of l blocking a proper investigation of ! his disappearance. From western New York, opposition to the Ma3 sons spread to other states and several demagogic young politi-j e cians. among them Thurlow Weed S and William H. Seward of New a York and Thaddeus Stevens of a j Pennsylvania, seized upon the h l movement to promote their own e ambitions. The result was the organization j of the Anti-Masonic party and in ! September, 1830, the first Anti-Mail sonic convention, the first national n j convention of any party, was held in Philadelphia, attended by 06 dcl| egates from ten states. It was I decided to hold -*r? tion the next year to nominate candidates for President and vice-president and this meeting was to be composed of as many delegates from each state as there were rcp! resentatives in both houses of congress. Accordingly in September, 1831, the convention was held in Balti^ more and it nominated for Presit dent William Wirt of Maryland, ^ who had been attorney-general in Monroe's cabinet, and for vicer president Amos Ellmakcr of New ^ York. In the election of 1832 these candidates won only the electoral vote of Vermont. Later this party " . was absorbed by the Whigs and lost its identity, except in Pennsylvania L where it elected a governor in 1835 y and continued as a separate party ie for a few years. But during the Anti-Masonic par' ty's short existence it had pointed i the way for others to follow in the | method of choosing candidates. It | gave them the national nominating ; convention and while convention i procedure has since been changed j in many ways, from that day to ' this the fundamental principle upon which it was based has remained i unchanged?democratic representation of the party constituency. KANSAS CAMPAIGNER jTMIE state of Kansas is in the limelight this year because for | the first time in history a nominee of one of the major parties comes from the Sunflower state. Moreover, it has two candidates for the s presidency?Gov. Alf. M. Landon )- heading the Republican ticket and >- Earl Browder of Wichita, the leadt er of the Communist party. This is not the first time, however, that a Kansan has been a nominee. Back in 1884 there was another, also a governor. I uia limine was ?Jnun fierce St. | John, a native of Ind ana, an adventurer in California in the gold rush days, a lawyer in Illinois and a soldier in the Civil war, rising to the rank of lieutenant-colonel cj of an Illinois volunteer regiment. 1 After the war he moved to Missouri where he practiced law for a time and became noted as a politi^ cal orator. In 1869 he moved to ; . Kansas where he was to win his | greatest renown, y I He served in the state senate in * i 1873-4 but declined re-election and in 1878 was elected governor by the Republican party. Re-elected in 1880, he won the Republican nomination for a third term in 1882 but was defeated in the election. Always a pronounced enemy of 2 the liquor traffic, St. John was \ nominated for President on the j Prohibition ticket in 1884 and polled a total of 151,809 votes. This was 20,000 more than the vote for Butler, the candidate of the "Greeni backers," so that he was the "run ner-up" in the race between Clever land and Blaine. ? During his canvass for the presidency, St. John traveled extensively , aver the United States making speeches in behalf of the "dry" j zause. In fact, during his 14 years . of public life he is said to have k hung up a record of travel exceed[ ed by few candidates for office. I He traveled more than 300,000 ' miles by rail, during which time he never had an v.ccicent nor was 1 sick a day and made a total of 1,000 speeches, missing but four eni zagements in all that time. ?
