would.
Everyone knew it. They were sure of
it. The populace arose; they waved flags; they
deafened themselves and each other with the
volumnous echoes of Washington. Washington;
they sent the Secretary of Congress to Mount
Vernon to inform their hero that he was to be
president.
Washington received the news calmly. He
asked for two days in which to prepare for the
journey to New York and the inauguration, and
spent them riding about his Mount Vernon
estate, looking at every flower, mentally caressing each tree, and bleeding inwardly because
he was forced to leave his "evening of peace to
plunge into an ocean of difficulties." The journey to New York was glorious for people; crucifying for the president-elec- t.
He alone knew
that this was his Calvary; that the man who
placed the Bible before him was his Pontius
Pilate; that Sherry street was worse than
e;
that the execution of his office was an
unbearable cross weighted with the onslaughts
of political opposition, cries of "Tyrant! Tyrant!" and ultimately. . . .
The contemplated "ocean of difficulties" was
struck by a typhoon of dissention. Jefferson
became a faction separated from the president and the remainder of the cabinet; Hamilton talked of resignation.
Genet insulted
Washington and was upheld in his bitter attack by members of the Congress. The newspapers accused Washington of attempted monarchy. One of his fellow statesmen proposed
a toast before a large gathering in Virginia saying, "A speedy death to General Washington."
The colonies cupped their hands behind cocked
ears waiting for the least anachronism. Washington viewed the assaults as personal. He was
stung. He fought back as president, but cringed as a man. Iiideed, he had expected this.
Had George Washington employed dishonest
political methods; had he aspired to the olfice
of president for social betterment and political
power; had he campaigned for months, barnstorming the countryside, and making five minute speeches over the radio; had he consumed
enough money in this aspiration to warrant a
'Congressional investigation; had he slashed at
the
with a blade of contempt
merely to sprinkle blood of retribution upon
rabid Federalists; had he made threats or promises, then appointed commissions for the interpretation of an unpopular sentiment; had he
favored a loan plan instead of making an
anonymous contribution toward the relief of
the "most needy inhabitants" in the stricken
capital while he was president, perhaps the
bellowing partisans of early colonial days would
have been Justified in their disparagement of
him.
