This is a wonderful cartoon from Life Magazine. It was published on October 25, 1900. It really was a special election. For McKinley of course would become the first 20th century President. Roosevelt would block everything Bryan tried in that election. As he traveled all over the country on McKinley's behalf. It was the near end of the road for Bryan. Although he would run one more time in 1908. He would start to look comical after his 1900 run.
