Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents, Vol. 7: 1789 1907
The Administration of Mr. Hayes, though it began amid exciting scenes and an unprecedented situation which threatened disasters, was rather marked by moderation and a sympathy with what he considered true reform. Some of his vetoes are highly interesting, and indicate independence of character and that he was not always controlled by mere party politics. One of the most famous and best remembered of his messages is that vetoing the bland-allison Act, which restored the legal-tender quality to the silver dollar and provided for its limited coinage.
