2013-2014 Wisconsin Blue Book
STATISTICS: HISTORY 677 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011. -

(27 record center boxes) Collection #: AR 660 Historical Sketch Brotherhood work began as a national organization in 1907 in Richmond, Virginia, as the Laymen's Missionary Movement. Leaders were Joshua Levering of Baltimore, Maryland and Governor W.J. Northern of Atlanta, Georgia. Offices were first opened in Baltimore, but the organization moved to Chattanooga, Tennessee in 1914 and to Knoxville a couple of years later. The name was changed in 1926 to Baptist Brotherhood of the South. In 1938, its headquarters moved to Memphis, Tennessee, and, in 1950, it assumed its final name, the Brotherhood Commission. Upon recommendation of a special study committee in 1954, the Southern Baptist Convention, meeting in St. Louis, voted to transfer Royal Ambassadors from Woman's Missionary Union to the Brotherhood Commission. In 1965, Southern Baptists assigned the Commission the responsibility of developing and sustaining a mission’s education program for all boys, ages 9 to17, and all men. -

20 Heralding the Call of Populism 21 Promise and Fuse with Democrats
Methodist History, 49:1 (October 2010) HERALDING THE CALL OF POPULISM: KANSAS METHODISTS AND THE 896 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION DARIN A. TUCK The 1896 presidential election between William McKinley and William Jennings Bryan was one of the most pivotal and dramatic elections in American history. It not only represented a realignment in party policies and strongholds, but it also effectively ended the reform-minded Populist Party. The Republican McKinley defeated Bryan, who headed the Democratic and Populist tickets, largely by winning the coastal and former Northwest Territory. In his election campaign, Bryan faced enormous challenges. First, the relatively unknown Nebraska orator became a serious contender on the Democratic ticket only a few months before the convention. Second, Bryan faced a severe lack of funds in comparison to the enormous war chest col- lected for McKinley by his influential ally, Mark Hanna. McKinley enjoyed superiority in the press and sat atop a political machine that, according to historian Paul Glad, made Bryan’s campaign look like a “peanut opera- tion.”1 Third, the currency question split the Democratic Party between “Gold Democrats” and “Silverites.” Bryan was a member of the latter group that supported the coinage of silver as currency and wanted to set its value as equal to one-sixteenth of gold. Proponents believed the policy change would raise the amount of money in circulation, increase the lend- ing powers of Midwestern banks, and help struggling laborers and farmers. Symptomatic of the polemic nature of the currency issue, the potential by- product of inflation concerned many Democrats who left the party to form the National Democratic Party after Bryan’s nomination.2 Furthermore, McKinley proclaimed that gold was the only “sound money,” and he was helped by his reputation as an expert on economic and tariff issues that gave him credibility in the eyes of potential voters. -

In 1896, William Jennings Bryan’s supporters took conrol of the national Democratic Party.
