| dc.description.abstract | Letters of General Joseph R. Hawley to Charles Dudley Warner, The Hartford Daily Times, January 31, 1930. In June 1876, Hawley went to the national republican convention at Cincinnati to work for the nomination of Secretary of the Treasury Benjamin H. Bristow for president. The situation in the Connecticut delegation reflected the rivalry between Hawley and Marshall Jewell. The latter had been appointed postmaster general in Grant's cabinet. Some of his friends in Connecticut thought he ought to be given a complimentary vote for the presidency. This did not suit the Hawley people. They knew Hawley was to be a candidate for the vice-presidency. Hawley, too, was working for Bristow and had been asked to make the nominating speech for him. The Hawley people used that as a reason why the delegation ought not to go for Jewell on the first ballot. What they objected to of course, was the use of a complimentary ballot for the presidential nomination to exalt Jewell, perhaps to the detriment of Hawley. Quite obviously that was the. purpose for no one had any idea that Jewell could be nominated for the presidency and the idea was to get second place for him. | en_US |
