- W1544931466 abstract "Indiana has had many exciting and memorable campaigns, but there are few people now living who remember any that were more exciting than that of 1896. Three years of un rest had followed the panic of 1893, and the people were dis couraged and depressed. The greatest interest centered in the presidential contest, with McKinley and Bryan as the candidates, while the principal issue was bi-metalism vs. single gold standard, the Democrats standing for the former and the Republicans for the latter. While the race for the governorship was considered of minor importance it also held the attention of the electorate from the time the gubernatorial nominations were made until election day. The Republican candidate was James A. Mount of Montgomery county, one of the most successful farmers of Indiana, and the Democratic candidate was Benjamin F. Shively of South Bend, former member of the national House and later United States senator. Both candidates were able speakers and each, one made an extensive speaking campaign. Mr. Mount had been a speaker at farmers' institutes from the time they were started in Indiana in 1899. He spoke at the first institute ever held in Elkhart county, the writer hereof presiding. His institute work took him into every county in the state and wherever he went he was a favorite speaker and made hosts of friends. In the course of time he began to cherish gubernatorial aspirations. Louis Ludlow now a member of Congress, but formerly a staff correspondent of Indianapolis papers, credits Mrs. W. W. Stevens, of Salem, Indiana, with being the first to suggest that Mr. Mount should run for governor. Both Mr. and Mrs. Stevens were institute speakers and they and Mr. Mount were frequently together in that work and became very warm friends. Whenever Mr. Mount was in southern Indiana he made it a point, if possible, to spend a day at the Stevens home. It was during one of these visits that, according to Ludlow, Mrs. Stevens asked Mr. Mount why he should not become a candidate. Whether she or somebody else offered the suggestion, it did not take long for it to take effect, for he soon became an active can didate and took advantage of his appearance at institutes to build up his fences. That he was very desirous of gaining" @default.
