Excerpt from The Early Life and Public Career of James A. Garfield, Maj. Gen'l U. S: The Record of a Wonderful Career Which, Like That of Abraham Lincoln, by Native Energy and Untiring Industry, Led This Man From Obscurity to the Foremost Position in the Councils of the Nation

The American nation is about entering on a campaign which is destined to be ever memorable in the political annals of the country. The strife of factions has already begun, and from now until the issue is decided on the 2d of next November, there will reign paramount a war of words, a hurricane of argument. The Democratic Party enters the struggle flushed with the applause of its first reputable nomination in a long period, and confident that the waiting honors are to be its own. The Republican Party presents a man for the suffrages of the nation, who fitly and fully embodies in his public services the grand principles for which the party has victoriously striven during a deserved ascendency of twenty years.

It would have been more than wonderful, if during this long continuance in power, the Republican Party had not some act to regret, some measure of the public welfare unfulfilled to lament, some blunder for which to need an apology. It is impossible in the procession of measures and men to avoid here and there a failure. The ideal is never accomplished. Remembering this, the defections, the grumblings, the dissatisfaction that sprung up within the party four years ago are readily understood and appreciated. These were based partly upon the unfitness of a great soldier to be a great statesman. This is no disparagement of the military achievements of General Grant, they stand unrivaled in the history of the New World. But as a statesman, in the eyes of some, he was a failure. He had not the necessary training; for, clearly, his life was intended to be shaped with the sword.
