He also tried to win the Republican nomination against William Howard Taft. But, in the end he lost the nomination. Still he remained active in politics. Between the years 1918 and 1919 he published editorials and wrote manuscripts even though his health was no where close to good. Most of the time he was so ill that he was bedridden much of the time.
