The 1900 State of the Union Address was written by William McKinley, the 25th president of the United States. He began it with these words: "At the outgoing of the old and the incoming of the new century you begin the last session of the Fifty-sixth Congress with evidences on every hand of individual and national prosperity and with proof of the growing strength and increasing power for good of Republican institutions."[2] It was the last of the four addresses given by McKinley. It was given as a written message to the 56th United States Congress. He did not deliver it as a speech.
