•AS Yor LIKE IT. Some 'Themes of the Seniors oMarcus cA. Hanna. Harley Tillman. Marcus A. Hanna, one of the greatest political geuiuMs of the twentieth century has gained fame, not only for himself, but alt o as the recognized power behind the throne of one of our most popular presidents. Mr. Hanna was born at Libs n. Columbian i county, Ohio, September 21. 1837. Very little is known of his early education, beyond the mere fact that he attended the common schools of lus native town. To those familiar with Senator Hanna's wide range of reading, and his power of logical th »t and eloquent cx.irc+sio.i the brief period of his formal education will be a surprise. He spent two terms at the Western Reserve Academy, where he received his great ideas, an I laid the foundation for his later work. In l'XHl. Kenyon College confered upon him the 110nary degree of L. L. I). On September 27. 18S4. lie married Augusta, daughter of l aniel 1 . Rhodes, of Cleveland. The marriage proved in all respects, a happy one. The grief caused bv Mr. Hanna's death, was the first one that the family have experienced. Mr. Hanna became an employe and. later, a partner in the Rhodes Wholesale House. And still later, he embarked in the coal and iron industry, and became a director of the Globe Ship Manufacturing Comjiany. He also rose to be the head of the M A. Hanna Coal Company: president of the Union National Hank: president of the Chapin Mining Company, of Lake Superior: and president of the Cleveland City Railway Company. Mr. Hanna wan one of the first to recognize the importance of bringing iron ore. and coal together. Many thousands of dollars are now saved annually in the production of this material, mainly thru the ingenuity, the enterprise, and the persistence of Mr. Hanna. Some l eople have said, that in his relations to labor, he has never had a scrik. This is n strictly true, for as an employer. Mr. Hanna encountered several strike- 11 wovcr. these strikes were not very important and he always went as tar as the utmost stretching of justice would permit in settling them. He believed thoroly in the most amicable relations between labor and capital as tending to their mutual advantages, and to the upbuilding of the entire community. Alt ho Mr. Hanna's schooling was very brief, he always entertained a sense of gratitude for what lie diJ recc vc and a keen interest in school matters. His earnest and hearty support was always given to the American school system. He encouraged young men to acquire all the book-learning |H»ssible. and. whatever their occupation in life, to keep up a regular course of reading and study. His first public office was that of membership on the Board of Education of Cleveland. Senator Hanna was, at all times, interested in jmlitics. Long before his name Inrcameconspicuous in the politicia! world, he was an active member at all primary elections, lie considered it hi- duty, to take an interest in public questions and to share in their settlement. The first presidential campaign in which Mr. Hanna took an active part was that 1880. when Garfield was the republican nominee. In that year, together with several other business men. lie organized the Business Men's League, which proved to be a great factor in the clcctiou of Garfield. This experience gave him his first appreciation of the power that could be wielded in politics, by a systematic organization of the business interests of the country. In 1884 and 1838. lie was a delegate to the National Convention. In 18 2. in the Convention at Minneapolis, he realized that William McKinley was rising and rapidly gaining the confidence of the people. He then centered all interest in the work for McKinley. His influence in the latter's election in 18%, cannot t.c over estimated. It is well known that Mr. McKinley tendered him a position in his first cabinet, and that he declined. It is equally well known, that the president urged him to become a candidate for the Senate, in order to till the vacaucy. caused bv the selection of Senator Sherman for the post o: Secretary of State. When lie accepted this ap| ointment. lie had no intention of running for a full term, but such an effort was made in 18 17 by John R. McLean, a Democrat, that he had to do s.». in order to keep hi- seat. In this election he received the approval of eighty-three, out of eighty-eight counties of the state. He won the battle by his remarkably good speeches. Mr. Hanna realized that no man could lie successful. unless he worked. He always labored hard from the time that he worked Whiud the counter until his death. His associates in the Page Twenty
