In order to stop the likely renomination of William Jennings Bryan, the 1896 Democratic standard-bearer, for president in 1900, conservative Democrats encouraged Admiral George Dewey to enter the race. In early April, the naval hero of the Spanish-American War announced that he was available for the Democratic presidential nomination. On the cover of the April 28 issue of Harper’s Weekly, Bryan and Dewey prepare to battle for the nomination as Republican President William McKinley looks over the political fence with interest. Bryan is about to release his Populist Ostrich, which wears a free-silver 16-to-1 medallion (the proposed government-set ratio of silver to gold), against Dewey’s American Eagle, which sports a Constitution neckband. |
