Smith over the Irish question. Under his leadership the Post See also:broke with the Republican party in the presidential See also:campaign of 1884, when Godkin's opposition to See also:Blaine did much to create the so-called See also:Mugwump party (see MUGWUMP), and his See also:organ became thoroughly See also:independent, as was seen when it attacked the Venezuelan policy of See also:President See also:Cleveland, who had in so many ways approximated the ideal of the Post and Nation. He consistently advocated currency reform, the See also:gold basis, a See also:tariff for See also:revenue only, and See also:civil service reform, rendering the greatest aid to the last cause.

Hall were so frequent and so virulent that in 1894 he was sued for See also:libel because of See also:biographical sketches of certain leaders in that organization—cases which never came up for trial. His opposition to the war with See also:Spain and to imperialism was able and forcible. He retired from his editorial duties on the 30th of See also:December 1899, and sketched his career in the Evening Post of that date. Although he recovered from a severe apoplectic stroke See also:early in 1900, his See also:health was shattered, and he died in Greenway, See also:Devonshire, See also:England, on the 21st of May 1902. Godkin shaped the lofty and independent policy of the Post and the Nation, which had a small but influential and intellectual class of readers. But as editor he had none of the See also:personal See also:magnetism of See also:Greeley, for instance, and his superiority to the See also:influence of popular feeling made Charles See also:Dudley See also:Warner See also:style the Nation the "weekly See also:judgment See also:day." He was an economist of the school of See also:- MILL

Mill, urged the See also:necessity of the See also:abstraction called " economic See also:man," and insisted that See also:socialism put in: practice would not improve social and economic conditions in See also:general. In politics he was an enemy of sentimentalism and loose theories in See also:government. He published A See also:History of See also:Hungary, A.D. 300-1850 (1856), Government (1871, in the American See also:Science See also:Series), Reflections and Comments (1895),' Problems of See also:Modern See also:Democracy (1896) and Unforeseen Tendencies of Democracy (1898).
