  • Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan
    Retired United States Congressmen from the State of Michigan Submitted by Joshua Koss To The Honors College Oakland University In partial fulfillment of the requirement to graduate from The Honors College 1 Abstract Conventional wisdom in the study of members of Congress, pioneered by Richard Fenno, argues that one of the chief goals of elected officials is their reelection. However, this theory does not account for those who willingly retire from Congress. Who are these former members and what activities do they pursue once they leave office? To answer the first question, this project analyzes data on retired members of Congress from the state of Michigan regarding the years they served, party identification, and their age of retirement. The second and perhaps more interesting question in this research, examines the post-congressional careers of former members of Congress and whether their new line of work has any connections with their time in Congress through committee assignments and issue advocacy. In addition to quantitative analysis of the attributes of former members and their post-congressional careers, a qualitative analysis is conducted through a comparative case study of retired Senator Donald Riegle and former Representative Mike Rogers. This aspect of the study more closely examines their respective career paths through congress and post-congressional vocations. 2 Introduction In 1974, Democratic Congresswoman Martha Griffiths announced her retirement from the House of Representatives citing her age, 62, as a key motivation for the decision. After this, Griffiths would serve two terms as Michigan Lieutenant Governor before being dropped off the ticket, at the age of 78, due to concerns about her age, a claim she deemed “ridiculous” (“Griffiths, Martha Wright”).

Ratcliff Richard Ratcliff of Lancashire, England & Talbot Co., Ild. and his Ancestors and Descendents 1066- ir INTRODUCTION For a long time the writer has been greatly interested in knowing about his Ratcliff ancestors, but could learn little about them from his own immedi­ ate family. Several years ago he began a systematic search through various gejjdalogical libraries, such as the Library of Congress in Washington, D. C. , and the Mew England Historic Genealogical Society's library in Boston, Mass. Bx5*olc stores, such as Goodspeedrs Book Shop in Boston, and the Genealogical y'fiook Company in Baltimore, I-Iaryland, were also visited, to see if Ratcliff genealogies had already been prepared which would shed light upon his partic­ ular branch of the family. All this search was to no avail as he found not one single Ratcliff family history at any of these likely places. At that point it seemed Operative that our family genealogy be written. Then the decision was made to compile all Ratcliff family data that could be found; here "and there. Next I -wrote Rev. Everett N.' Ratcliff (#228U) of Columbus, Ohio, who, I hoped, might be a distant cous:m, which he is, and through him other cousins were located.

  • Commission on Public Art Inventory Review Online Comment Submissions the Public Comments in This Document Were Collected from Au
    Commission on Public Art inventory review online comment submissions The public comments in this document were collected from August 15 to September 5. They are in response to a call from Mayor Greg Fischer, encouraging the public to add their voice to the review of public art that can be interpreted to honor bigotry, discrimination, racism and/or slavery. 40204: I am not opposed to removing the Castleman statue. I would miss having a horse in the neighborhood, however, so if it could be replaced by another rider, perhaps Oliver Lewis and Aristides, the first KY Derby winners. That would be cool. Any statue with Confederate imagery should be removed. Period. 40299: We should not have public murals and statues of leaders of the confederacy. The bottom line is that these men of the confederacy fought to keep hatred, bigotry and racism alive. I don't want our city to have statues honoring these men, because I know Louisville is an inclusive community dedicated to bringing different folks together. 40212: Remove all statues glorifying these traitors. I can’t imagine what a PoC feels about these abominations. 40243: Please leave history ALONE... 40208: A democracy should have monuments celebrating the oppressed and not the oppressors. We need to tear down any monuments celebrating the Confederacy. I also think you should add to this list nude portraits, paintings objectifying women, and paintings featuring people in poverty. I would recommend going through the library and removing all books before 1975 and blocking all websites that involve actual thinking. History has been written, to ignore it is unwise.

  • University Microfilms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

  • Book Reviews
    Book Reviews Henry Watterson: Reconstructed Rebel. By Joseph Frazier Wall. (New York: Oxford University Press, 1956. Pp. xvi, 337. Notes and index. $6.00.) One of the last two ferries to shuttle the Ohio between Louisville, Kentucky, and Jeffersonville, Indiana, was the “Henry Watterson”--so named, in the words of its co-owner, “because both were symbols in the effort to unite the North and the South.” Appropriately, the bottle of water that launched this boat was a blend from wells on both sides of the dividing line-from Mansfield, “Marse Henry’s” estate, and from Captain James E. Howard’s mansion near Jeffer- sonville, whence three generations of Howards also had helped link the North and South by building over four hun- dred steamboats. This biography of the legendary editor of the Louisville Courier-Joumdwhich for fifty-three years (1868-1921) served as a diary of this reconstructed rebel’s struggle to reconciliate first the North and the South, and then the Democratic party-should be of particular interest to Hoosiers. As Irvin S. Cobb reminded us a generation ago in a “guyed book” to Indiana, “There is a good deal of the Southerner in the composition of the typical Hoosier.” To this day, some profess that a more realistic Mason-Dixon Line (than its projection down the Ohio) slices Indiana along an approximation of U.S. Route 40. Certainly, during the Civil War, in the Copperhead country of Indiana below the Na- tional Road, countless Hoosiers would have understood why young Watterson’s loyalty to the South outweighed his love for the Union and his hatred of slavery.

Submitted to the Office of Graduate Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Approved by: Chair of Committee, Joseph Dawson Committee Members, James Bradford Joseph Cerami Head of Department, Walter L. Buenger December 2005 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT The Battle of Sailor’s Creek: A Study in Leadership. (December 2005) Cloyd Allen Smith Jr., B.A., Slippery Rock University Chair: Dr. Joseph Dawson The Battle of Sailor’s Creek, 6 April 1865, has been overshadowed by Lee’s surrender at Appomattox Court House several days later, yet it is an example of the Union military war machine reaching its apex of war making ability during the Civil War. Through Ulysses S. Grant’s leadership and that of his subordinates, the Union armies, specifically that of the Army of the Potomac, had been transformed into a highly motivated, organized and responsive tool of war, led by confident leaders who understood their commander’s intent and were able to execute on that intent with audacious initiative in the absence of further orders. After Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia escaped from Petersburg and Richmond on 2 April 1865, Grant’s forces chased after Lee’s forces with the intent of destroying the mighty and once feared iv protector of the Confederate States in the hopes of bringing a swift end to the long war.

  • The Bingham Family from the Old
    THE FILSON CLUB HISTORY QUARTERLY VOL. 61 JANUARY 1987 NO. 1 THE BINGHAM FAMILY: FROM THE OLD SOUTH TO THE NEW SOUTH AND BEYOND WILLIAM E. ELLIS After reading Gone With the Wind in early 1937, Robert Worth Bingham, American Ambassador to Great Britain and son of a Confederate veteran, reacted effusively to Margaret Mitchell's classic novel. He exclaimed : I do not thank you for "Gone With the Wind" -- I bless you .... I know every phase of it all; the poverty and the pride, the gentility, the gracious manners, the romance, the preservation of dignity and high and generous humanity in rags and semi-starvation. 1 If Mitchell's epic synthesized the popular 1930s interpretation of the Civil War and Reconstruction, to Bingham it meant much more. He believed the book exonerated the history of his father's generation and vindicated his own behavior. Here was no rabid racist of the Tom Watson variety. In his public life Bingham epitomized the best of the southern ethos of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. He fought against political cor- ruption in the Progressive Era as a young lawyer, mayor, and judge in Louisville, Kentucky. After purchasing the Louisville Courier-Journal in 1918, he continued his crusade against Ken- tucky's Gothic political system until his death in late 1937. More- over, he led the effort to develop a nationwide system of farmer cooperatives in the early twenties3 Bingham never transcended his southern background of the WILLIAM E. ELLIS, PH.D., teaches history at Eastern Kentucky Univer- sity. He wishes to express his gratitude to Eastern Kentucky University and to the National Endowment for the Humanities for travel and research funds used in the preparation of this article.

  • INDIANA MAGAZINE of HISTORY Volume XL December, 1944 No
    INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY Volume XL December, 1944 No. 4 Henry Watterson and the Liberal Convention of 1872 LENAC. LOGAN At the beginning of the presidential year of 1872, revolt was brewing in the incumbent Republican party against the Radical faction which dominated it. This was caused in part by Grant’s ineptitude as President, by numerous scandals in high public office, and especially by the harshness of Con- gress’ reconstruction policy toward the South. A ground swell of discontent was rising among moderate Republicans throughout the North. The movement first came to a head in Missouri. A so-called Liberal Republican group organized there in the late sixties. It was led by moderate Republicans who opposed the postwar Republican state administration’s severe proscription of ex-Confederates. Many Democrats, living under the suspicion of treason, were glad to join the group in the hope of obtaining political amnesty. The Liberals carried the Missouri state elections in 1870. They sent their outstanding leader, Carl Schurz, to the Senate and placed B. Gratz Brown in the governor’s chair. The new party’s chief principles included amnesty to the South, civil service reform, and tariff ref0rm.l The movement attracted widespread attention throughout the country because of its timeliness and success. Many people felt that it should be extended to the nation as a whole. In September of 1871, Carl Schurz raised the banner for a national Liberal independent third party to run a presi- dential candidate against Grant who was sure to be the Radicals’ choice in 1872. Reformers of various stripes cast interested glances at the project : low-tariff men, Eastern 1Earle D.
