PRICE: 25 CENTS. ISSUED BY THE CHICAGO DAILY NEWS. PUBLISHER'S PREFACE. The 1889 issue of the Daily News Almanac and Political Register is thefifth volume of the series, 'the first having been issued in 1885. With each succeeding year the work has increased in volume, completeness, and acc^^racy. No care, labor, or expense has been spared to make the present issue not only as accurate as possible but to produce a political manual th.it shall commend itself e pecially to the people of the West. Unusual space is this year devoted to the tariff, as a subject of constantly widening int. rest. In compiling the electoral re- turns the vote of the elector receiving the ia<-gest number of votes upon each ticket has been given. In many of the states certain electors have receivedfrom ten to fifty votes more thait the others on the tickei, and the rule has been adopted oj credit- ing each party with its largest vote. This wi I account for an occasional slight discrepancy in the returns, the county officer giving the vote for the head of the electoral ticket, while the Secretary of State may give the highest vote received by any elector, or vice versa. In Alabama and Virginia it has been impossible to give the Fisk vote by counties, owing to the failure of the Secreta- ries of State to so make their returns io the editor cfthe Daily News Almanac, although particularly requested to do so. No one notpersonallyfamiliar with the labor of compiling within the short space of sixty days the great mass of statistics in such a volume as this can appreciate the magnitude of the task. The present issue, like its predecessors, has been com- p led by George E. Plumbe, A. B., LL. B., of the Daily editorial whose abilities so a News staff, special for exacting work have never been morj conclusively shown than in the present volume. The Daily News Almanac is again submitted to the crit- icaljudgment of a discriminating public. Chicago, January 15, 1889. Chicago Daily !NVws Almanac 1889. ECIIPSES.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School THE CRUCIBLE OF EMPIRE: THE AMERICAN EXPERIENCE IN THE CHINA RELIEF EXPEDITION OF 1900 A Dissertation in History by Xiangyun Xu 2019 Xiangyun Xu Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2019 The dissertation of Xiangyun Xu was reviewed and approved* by the following: Amy Greenberg George Winfree Professor of American History Dissertation Co-Advisor Committee Co-Chair David Atwill Associate Professor of History Dissertation Co-Advisor Committee Co-Chair Sophie De Schaepdrijver Professor of History Nicolai Volland Associate Professor of Asian Studies and Comparative Literature Michael Kulikowski Head of the Department *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School ii ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the significance of the China Relief Expedition of 1900 in the history of the United States as an empire. It demonstrates how the American decision to intervene in the Boxer Uprising and their perception of the ensuing expedition were entangled with political, gender, and racial norms in the United States formed through westward expansion, Chinese exclusion, and the Spanish-American War of 1898. The transmission and application of these norms across national boundaries applied not only to statesmen and ordinary people at home, but also servicemen in China, even though the latter’s experience in China had the potential to modify some of those stereotypes. The dissertation also reveals that by observing other forces in action, U.S. servicemen learned valuable lessons that would later be of help in the Philippines and other future encounters, and formed opinions of other countries that would later influence their stance on issues like the Russo-Japanese War of 1904- 05 and World War I.

  • University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. 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 original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns 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 thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

The judicial system established under the First constitution of Ohio, in 1802, did not provide for a probate court but vested th~ court of common pleas with such powers as had been'exercised by the court in the territorial period.
