Excerpt from From Harrison to Harding: A Personal Narrative, Covering a Third of a Century, 1888 1921
The country had long been upon an even keel, pur suing a course of development unhampered by any of the great events which disturb nations and shake thrones. Reconstruction as it was known after the Civil War had been checked by the Democratic sweep in the congressional elections of I 874. The war embers were smoldering and gradually dying. No nation had threatened either our territory or such commerce as we then had. For the most part we had been concerned wholly with our own afiairs and our people were not looking beyond the shores of the Atlantic or Pacific for commercial activity. There was still enough of the Frontier, of wild western plains and forests, to appease the land hungry and no one talked of expansion.
