  • Results of Elections Attorneys General 1857
    RESULTS OF ELECTIONS OF ATTORNEYS GENERAL 1857 - 2014 ------- ※------- COMPILED BY Douglas A. Hedin Editor, MLHP ------- ※------- (2016) 1 FOREWORD The Office of Attorney General of Minnesota is established by the constitution; its duties are set by the legislature; and its occupant is chosen by the voters. 1 The first question any historian of the office confronts is this: why is the attorney general elected and not appointed by the governor? Those searching for answers to this question will look in vain in the debates of the 1857 constitutional convention. That record is barren because there was a popular assumption that officers of the executive and legislative branches of the new state government would be elected. This expectation was so deeply and widely held that it was not even debated by the delegates. An oblique reference to this sentiment was uttered by Lafayette Emmett, a member of the Democratic wing of the convention, during a debate on whether the judges should be elected: I think that the great principle of an elective Judiciary will meet the hearty concurrence of the people of this State, and it will be entirely unsafe to go before any people in this enlightened age with a Constitution which denies them the right to elect all the officers by whom they are to be governed. 2 Contemporary editorialists were more direct and strident. When the convention convened in St. Paul in July 1857, the Minnesota Republican endorsed an elected judiciary and opposed placing appointment power in the chief executive: The less we have of executive patronage the better.

  • Interview with Former Governor Elmer L
    Interview with Former Governor Elmer L. Andersen Interviewed by Mark E. Haidet Minnesota Historical Society Interviewed on February 9, 1978 in Governor Andersen's St. Paul office MEH: In a previous interview [August and September 1975] on your governorship, Joanne Baldwin recorded your recollections of the political problems that you encountered during your administration and your impression of the Highway 35 charges. Before proceeding with the discussion of your recollections of the recount and your involvement in the 1966 gubernatorial contest, I would like to ask a few additional questions on these topics. AndersenFirst of all, what was your impression of then Lieutenant-governor Karl Rolvaag and what type of relationship existed between the two of you? L. ELA: Well, I thought well of Karl Rolvaag as a person. I did then and always have; I think he's a very decent man. We knew he had a personal problem then, as he has continued to have, which most recently has led to his leaving the Public Service Commission.ElmerSociety I guess any relation we had at that time was one kind of lacking of much relationship. I don't recall that our paths crossed very much. I certainly didn't think of relying on him for anything and he didn't interfere with me. He just was standing by as the lieutenant-governor.with I had also served in the Senate when he had been lieutenant-governor and the presiding officer of the Senate and always thought he presided very well over the Senate. So, I had no ill will toward him.

  • Interview with Karl Rolvaag
    Interview with Karl Rolvaag Interviewed by Mark Haidet December 11, 1978 MH: Today is December 11, 1978. This is Mark Haidet interviewing former Minnesota governor Karl Rolvaag in Deer River. Mr. Rolvaag, I think that an appropriate place to begin would be with a brief description of your family background and your early life in Minnesota. KR: Well, Mark, my father was a college professor at St. Olaf College in Northfield, Minnesota. He was, by all reports that I get, a rather distinguished professorRolvaag of Norwegian language and literature and a special scholar in the area of the dramatistF. Henrik Ibsen. I still run into people who studied under him. He was also a novelist of significance; wrote in his native Norwegian language. He emigrated, incidentally, to the United States when he was 20 or 21 years of age. He never felt at home in the EnglishKarl language to the degree that he could write easily. He said he always thought in Norwegian. Society Northfield was a small community and St. Olaf College was at that time a rather small college. I graduated from Northfield public schoolwith system and started St. Olaf College in 1931. My father died that fall. I left home and came back in the fall semester of 1932. I then left home again and came back and graduated in 1941, receiving my diploma in one hand and my greetings from the President in the other. I entered military service through Selective Service in 1941. I don't know whatHistorical else you want to know about the early years.

  • State of the State Address Governor Mark Dayton: Wednesday, February 09, 2011
    State of the State Address Governor Mark Dayton: Wednesday, February 09, 2011 A FIVE-POINT PLAN FOR MINNESOTA’S FUTURE PROSPERITY On January 29, 2002, as a Minnesota Senator, I attended President George W. Bush’s first State of the Union address. It occurred just four months after the terrible events of September 11, 2001. He began with these words. “As we gather tonight, our nation is at war, our economy is in recession and the civilized world faces unprecedented dangers. Yet the state of our union has never been stronger.” The President’s words rang true. On the night of 9/11, I had joined with other Members of Congress on the steps of the United States Capitol, which had been spared destruction that day by the heroic actions of passengers aboard United Flight #93, led by Minnesota native Thomas Burnet, Jr. We gathered, not as Republicans or Democrats, but as Americans. We wanted to show our nation and the world that, despite the day’s horrors, our country stood strong, our leaders were united, and our government was working . together. A few days later, we went together to the Pentagon and to Ground Zero. Then I traveled with a small bi-partisan group of Senators to Afghanistan, just after American forces had routed the Taliban and al Qaeda and reopened the American Embassy, though still surrounded by razor wire and Marines. So, when I heard the President’s words, “The state of our union has never been stronger,”I agreed that 9/11’s disaster had united our country, our citizens, and our leaders.

  • The US-Dakota War of 1862: Changing Interpretations Through Material Culture, Monuments, and Commemorative Activities
    The US-Dakota War of 1862: Changing Interpretations Through Material Culture, Monuments, and Commemorative Activities Kristin Glomstad Advisor: James Rice Readers: Cathy Stanton, Ninian Stein THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS MASTER OF ARTS PROGRAM IN HISTORY AND MUSEUM STUDIES TUFTS UNIVERSITY May 2017 ii Abstract The material culture surrounding the US-Dakota War – encompassing war artifacts, souvenirs, commemorative objects, and monuments – presents a unique and physical opportunity to read the changing interpretations of the war. For many years, the material culture created around this conflict reflected the mindset of the victors, and reinforced the traditional narrative of the war, the Dakota, and American Indians. The material culture examined in this study is a physical manifestation of these ideas, but also a challenge, and finally, a reinterpretation. These objects subtly reinforced the traditional narrative, pervading popular culture and academia. Yet in their visibility, they also drew criticism and questions. These issues, along with increased Dakota involvement became a part of the ongoing shift in the conversation on and understanding of the US-Dakota War and Native America. iii Table of Contents Introduction The US-Dakota War of 1862: Its Causes, Aftermath, and Original Artifacts.........1 Chapter 1 Connection to the Civil War – Defender Medals...................................................26 Chapter 2 The War Remembered in Popular Culture – Standard Brewing
