    The Urban Frontier in Pioneer Indiana ROBERT G. BARROWS AND LEIGH DARBEE ne of the central themes of Richard Wade’s The Urban Frontier— Othat the “growth of urbanism was an important part of the occupa- tion of the West”—has been reflected in Indiana historiography only occasionally. Donald F. Carmony’s examination of the state from 1816 to mid-century is definitive on constitutional, financial, political, and transportation topics, but is much less informative concerning social and urban history; indeed, Wade’s book does not appear in Carmony’s bibliography. In his one-volume history of the state, The Indiana Way, James H. Madison echoes Wade when he writes: “Towns were an essen- tial part of frontier development . providing essential services to the rural and agricultural majority of Indiana’s population.”1 When one con- siders the history of cities and towns in pioneer Indiana in relation to Wade’s classic work, a “generation gap” becomes readily apparent. Developments in Indiana (and, notably, in Indianapolis, the closest comparison to the cities Wade examined) run two or three decades behind his discussion of urbanism in the Ohio Valley. Wade begins his __________________________ Robert G.

Hiatt—for many years and its existence, save to a few, has been unknown. It is fragmentary in form. It is possibly the close of a journal which had been kept for years before. Its first sentence in the original is an incomplete one, showing that there was an antecedent portion. The picture of the times is so graphic than the Indiana Historical Society publishes it, on account of its historical value. Mr. Owen was 22 years old at the time of its composition.

  • Lessons, Answer Keys, Student Scoring Sheets, and a Survey of the Scientifically- Based Reading Research That Is Foundational to ITRI
    Grade 4 Teacher Guide Developed by the Center for Innovation in Assessment in conjunction with the Indiana Department of Education What’s In This Booklet The Informational Text Reading Inventory (ITRI) was created when the Center for Innovation in Assessment (CIA) observed that students in grade four experience a significant drop in performance in all of their subject areas. CIA researched solutions and identified the critical issue as the students' struggle to apply the reading skills they have learned in earlier grades to their expository textbooks. In grade four, students are expected to read to learn at a far greater extent than in earlier grades. ITRI materials teach students the reading skills they need to understand their content area textbooks. This booklet contains all the information teachers need to use the ITRI materials, including assessments, lessons, answer keys, student scoring sheets, and a survey of the scientifically- based reading research that is foundational to ITRI. Because all ITRI content comes from Indiana's Academic Standards for grade four science, social studies, and English/language arts (E/LA), ITRI materials will enhance the subject matter teachers already teach. Students will always learn the reading skills within the context of their content area curriculum. For a detailed list of all items, please go to the Table of Contents on page iii.

  • Architectural Significance
    Historic Significance Photo Source: Vegetable Market on Delaware Street, 1905, Indiana Historical Society Collection 33 Monument Circle District Preservation Plan 34 Monument Circle District Preservation Plan HISTORIC SIGNIFICANCE City Planning and Development Carved out of the Northwest Territory, Indiana entered the Union as the nineteenth state in 1816. The city of Indianapolis was founded in 1821 as the state capital, when the Indiana State Legisla- ture sought a central location for the city and appointed a committee to choose the site. Once the site was chosen surveyors Alexander Ralston and Elias Fordham were hired to lay out the city, which was proposed as a grid of north-south and east-west streets in a mile square plat. This plat was influenced by the Pierre L’Enfant plan for Washington, D.C., which in turn was in- spired by the royal residence of Versailles. Since Indianapolis was planned as a state capital, the plat sited the State House Square and the Court House Square equidistant from Circle Street (now Monument Circle), located in the center of the Mile Square. The Governor’s house was to be situ- ated in the circular lot framed by Circle Street, and the four city blocks framing the Circle were known as the “Governor’s Square.” Four diagonal streets radiated out from the far corners of the four blocks framing the circle. All streets of the Mile Square were 90 feet wide with the exception of Washington Street, which was 120 feet wide to accommodate its intended use as the capital’s main street. The sale of lots in the new capital city on October 8, 1821 reveal the street’s importance, as lots fronting it com- manded the highest prices.

  • Fraud, 1861-1862
    The Indiana “Bonds” Fraud, 1861-1862 Ray Shortridge” In the last week of May 1862, Indiana newspapers broke the Indiana state “Bonds Fraud” story to shocked Hoosiers. The newspapers had one part of it wrong-the financial securities in question were Indiana 5 percent stock, not bonds. However, the press was right about the fraud: two miscreants, using as collateral some $2,538,000 in fraudulent securities,had parlayed them into a fortune in the New York Stock Exchange worth an estimated $20 million (the equivalent of roughly $360 million in today’s dollars). Since the New York financial markets were essential to Indiana’s mobilization for the Civil War and since the leaders of the state’s political parties fought one another fiercely in the newspapers during the war, from late May to late June 1862 only the news from the combat fronts garnered more ink than the financial scandal. Although the fraud had been carried out in the course of the preceding year and a half, newspaper editors and the public treated the scandal as a one-month wonder. After June 25,1862, when a New York grand jury indicted former Indiana state agent, Daniel C. Stover, from Ladoga, Indiana, and a Wall Street financier, Samuel Hallett, for forgery in the third degree, the matter vanished from public view. These events are interesting for several reasons. For one, they remind us that persons with access to wealth and power have threatened the stability of the economy in the past, as corporate malfeasance at Enron and accounting firms has done recently.
