  • 2 Silver Squelchers and Their Interesting Associates!
    #2 SILVER SQUELCHERS AND THEIR INTERESTING ASSOCIATES! Presented September 2014 by Charles Savoie “…THE CLANS WHOSE SELFISH ACTIVITIES HAVE TORMENTED THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOR MANY YEARS---THE MEMBERS OF THE POWER MINDED UPPER RULING CLASS THAT SEE EVERYTHING IN TERMS OF THEIR OWN INTERESTS. EVERY REPRESSIVE AND FASCIST TREND IN THE UNITED STATES CAN BE TRACED ON THE RECORD IN SOME WAY, TO THIS RULING CLASS.” ---pages 484 and 513, “America’s 60 Families” by Ferdinand Lundberg, 1937. There is no evidence that Lundberg was aware of The Pilgrims Society. Continuing with number 2 in this series, as we progress towards the present, we will consider another 15 Pilgrims Society members from the leaked 1914 rosters. Unavoidably we will mention others significantly connected to them. Not all members of this nearly unknown organization have been, or are, precious metals suppressors. The organization is concerned with many other spheres---medicine, science, diplomacy, the military and war industries, insurance giants, universities, big media, and far more. This group remains present at this moment behind the scenes and traces to conspirators active in the Crime of ’73, the Panics of 1857 and 1837, both United States Banks, and much more. It can be anticipated that as they were in earlier times the source of precious metals price and monetary suppression, that the ringleaders in this arena today are also members. That’s why it’s important to maintain pressure on them to post rosters to public view. None of the nine rosters from bygone years were voluntarily released. 1) Henry Clews (1836-1923) is described by Wikipedia as having cofounded in 1859 “Livermore, Clews & Company, then the second largest marketer of Federal bonds during the Civil War.” In 1877 he was the principal in Clews & Company.

Index ........ iii PART I. HISTORICAL AND BIOGRAPHICAL PREFACE. HERE are people in our time who treat the inquiries of the genealogist with indifference, and even with contempt. His researches seem to them a waste of time and energy. Interest in ancestors, love of family and kindred, those subtle questions of race, origin, even of life itself, which they involve, are quite beyond their com prehension. They live only in the present, care nothing for the past and little for the future; for " he who cares not whence he cometh, cares not whither he goeth." When such persons are approached with questions of ancestry, they retire to their stronghold of apathy; and the querist learns, without diffi culty, that whether their ancestors were vile or illustrious, virtuous or vicious, or whether, indeed, they ever had any, is to them a matter of supreme indifference.

First and foremost, I am tremendously fortunate to have been guided by my mentors Thomas Adam at the University of Texas at Arlington and Pilar Gonzáles Bernaldo at l’Université Paris Diderot. The depth of their knowledge is matched by few, and I thank them for challenging me, encouraging me, and for keeping me intellectually grounded as I struggled to keep one foot on each side of the Atlantic. I also owe immeasurable appreciation to the other members of my committee and outside reviewers: Steven Reinhardt, Mark Meigs, Kenyon Zimmer, and Pierre-Yves Saunier. Their thoughtful feedback and encouragement continues to be invaluable. For their precise and friendly guidance during my fellowship there, I thank the kind and helpful staff at the New York Public Library. For reading and commenting on earlier conference and workshop papers, I thank Dirk Hoerder, Susan Ball, Mirna Safi, Hélène le Dantec-Lowry, Evelyne Payen, Beate Collet, Thomas Wolfe, and especially Timm Beichelt, whose encouragement to rethink my overarching question proved far more valuable than I acknowledged at the time.

His influence reached its height with his relentless caricatures of Boss Tweed and the Tammany Hall Ring in New York City. In 1871, the Nation, edited by E.L. Godkin, proclaimed: “Mr. Nast has carried political illustrations during the last six months to a pitch of excellence never before attained in this country, and has secured for them an influence on opinion such as they never came near having in any country.”1 Nast contributed to American political and cultural iconography in many ways.

  • Renee Tabizon Before Broadway, Silent Film, And
    THE POWER OF THE AMERICAN PRESS AND THE PUBLIC SOUL OF THE GILDED AGE ________________________________________________ Renee Tabizon Before Broadway, silent film, and talkies, celebrity status began with the American Press and their ability to publicize the lives of elite men of finance and industry. Daily news- paper articles and telegraph wires reported their activities, business affairs, leisure time, and travels. Some newspapers criticized that these tycoons were held in excessively high regard, as if they were royalty or other dignitaries.1 How- ever, most popular mainstream presses frequently featured photos of Gilded Age men with their families and homes, glamorizing their extravagant lifestyles and wealth.2 In ad- dition to images, the popular press also cited famous aca- demics such as President Woodrow Wilson, who was quot- ed referring to finance men as celebrities.3 The most fasci- 1 “Jay Gould Resting,” The Kansas Agitator, August 11, 1891. 2 “Lakewood’s Lincoln Day: Hotels and Cottages Thronged with Holi- day Visitors,” New York Times, February 14, 1904. 3 “Dr. Woodrow Wilson Defines Material Issues; Scathing Arraignment of Political and Industrial control over “new issues of securities, its occupation of places on corporate boards of directors, and its Condi- tions Which have Made Possible the Recent Panic in Financial Circles. 88 Perspectives nating aspect of American media coverage during the turn of the twentieth century is that it bestowed celebrity status upon some of the most prominent men of the Gilded Age often only after these men died.
