Abstract
In the presidential election of 1884 Senator James G. Blaine, once the head of the Half-Breeds, challenges and defeats incumbent president Chester A. Arthur for the Republican nomination. The Democrats nominate New York governor Grover Cleveland. Charges and counter charges sully the campaign. Blaine, hoping to raise the level of debate, launches a speaking tour across the country, highly unusual for the time. The Mugwumps, a small group that believed in civil service reform, throw their support to Cleveland who wins by a very narrow margin.
