INFLUENCE. VICTORIES. Letter from Your Orthopaedic PAC Chair Dear Colleague, It’s official! Orthopaedic PAC has reached its best two-year cycle in our history. We hit our $4 million goal and saw 15% growth from our previous cycle, a truly incredible feat. In addition to our outstanding fundraising growth, we saw a tremendous increase in our political footprint through engagement with state and federal lawmakers. In the 2018 election cycle, we supported over 320 candidates and Members of Congress, with a win rate of 90% in the House and 86% in the Senate. We also attended 1,200 events in DC and 120 events in-district, more than a 25% increase. We are the most active and unified PAC in the entire physician community—we have the best participation rate and are THE largest health care disburser! Together, with your support, we made history. Your incredible support allowed us to fight for some big wins for the house of orthopaedics. In 2018, the Independent Payment Advisory Board (IPAB) was repealed and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) was reauthorized for ten years. The Sports Medicine Licensure Clarity Act, an AAOS led bill, was also signed into law this year. This bill provides legal protection for team physicians traveling across state lines. Throughout the past year, we have made great headway on reducing regulatory burdens to preserve the doctor-patient relationship. We have also made great progress on medical liability reform and on repealing the ban on physician owned hospitals. We will continue to fight hard for these issues, and more, in the new Congress. The 116th Congress will certainly look a lot different than the last, with over 90 new members. The new Congress will bring new challenges, as well as exciting opportunities. With a divided government, there is little chance that any controversial or partisan ideas will become law; however, many of the bills passed this Congress will serve as blueprints for future legislation that could be signed into law. This is our opportunity to make a mark on these bills while they are in their foundational stage. I would like to give a special thank you to the members of the Orthopaedic PAC Executive Committee, named in this report, who set our electoral strategy and priorities, in addition to raising money for the PAC. The guidance of a diverse and hard-working PAC Board ensures that your dollars are spent wisely to advocate effectively for the entire orthopaedic specialty. Thank you to every one of you who have supported the Orthopaedic PAC this cycle. Every AAOS member, as well as our patients, benefits from having a strong and vibrant political action committee. In 2019, we will celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the PAC and I encourage all PAC members to renew their support. Watch for our “Twenty for Twenty” program. And to those who have never joined the PAC: there is no time like today. Let’s continue make our voice heard on Capitol Hill together. Sincerely, John T. Gill, MD Chairman, Orthopaedic PAC Capitol Club Member 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 1 2018 Orthopaedic PAC Executive Committee The Orthopaedic PAC is fortunate to have dedicated leaders throughout the AAOS who govern the direction of the PAC. We thank them for their ongoing support and leadership. The PAC executive Committee, meets one to two times face-to-face annually and meets many times by conference call throughout the year.

The Orthopaedic PAC closed 2018 with over $2M, and $4M for the cycle, a 15% growth from the previous election cycle. In comparison, we saw receipts at over $3.4 million for the 2015–2016 cycle, and $3.5 for the 2013–2014 cycle. ndividuals can contribute up to $5,000 to a PAC per calendar year. Corporate I contributions (soft receipts) include ORTHOPAEDIC PAC SEES 15% GROWTH checks and credit cards processed on a $4,000,000 physician’s business account including LLC, 2017–2018: PC, or Inc. Personal contributions (hard $3.992M receipts) are checks and credit cards from a $3,000,000 physician’s personal account. All contributions to the Orthopaedic PAC—whether written on 2015–2016: $2,000,000 a personal or business (corporate) check—are $3.46M welcome and important. However, corporate contributions can only be used for PAC- related operational expenses, independent $1,000,000 2013–2014: expenditures and state activities. Only those contributions written on a personal check $3.56M can be used to support federal political $0 candidates—and it is these contributions that 2014 2016 2018 help make the Orthopaedic PAC powerful.

    POLE RAISING: A CAMPAIGN ACTIVITY Introduction by George A. Turner Often a special feature of political party rallies during presidential campaigns in the mid- 1800s involved raising a large pole for a candidate. Democrats used a hickory tree in honor of Andrew Jackson, known as "Old Hickory," and the father of the party. The Whigs favored a poplar tree for their pole raising events. When the Republicans came into existence, they adopted the poplar since many of its members were former Whigs. Selecting the right pole was an important decision. It needed to be proportioned and of great height. It took several people to cut and trim the tree, haul it to the meeting, and put it upright in a hole. Columbia Democrat and The Star of the North, two Democrat newspapers in Bloomsburg, each published an article in late summer1860 about two Democratic political meetings in Sugarloaf Township and Bloomsburg that raised "hickory poles." It was election time with a large majority of Pennsylvania Democrats supporting Vice President John C. Breckinridge, a Kentucky slave owner for President, Senator Joseph Lane of Oregon for Vice President, and Henry Foster for Governor. Pole Raising in Bloomsburg The Star of the North, August 22, 1860 The friends of Breckinridge, Lane and Foster, erected on last Saturday afternoon, between the house of five and six o’clock in East Bloomsburg, near the residence of Mr. Henry Wanich, a magnificent hickory pole, not much short of one hundred feet in length, with a streamer on the tope, and a splendid flag bearing the names of Breckinridge, Lane and Foster, our gallant Democratic nominees.

  • The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860
    PRESERVING THE WHITE MAN’S REPUBLIC: THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF AMERICAN CONSERVATISM, 1847-1860 Joshua A. Lynn A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Harry L. Watson William L. Barney Laura F. Edwards Joseph T. Glatthaar Michael Lienesch © 2015 Joshua A. Lynn ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Joshua A. Lynn: Preserving the White Man’s Republic: The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860 (Under the direction of Harry L. Watson) In the late 1840s and 1850s, the American Democratic party redefined itself as “conservative.” Yet Democrats’ preexisting dedication to majoritarian democracy, liberal individualism, and white supremacy had not changed. Democrats believed that “fanatical” reformers, who opposed slavery and advanced the rights of African Americans and women, imperiled the white man’s republic they had crafted in the early 1800s. There were no more abstract notions of freedom to boundlessly unfold; there was only the existing liberty of white men to conserve. Democrats therefore recast democracy, previously a progressive means to expand rights, as a way for local majorities to police racial and gender boundaries. In the process, they reinvigorated American conservatism by placing it on a foundation of majoritarian democracy. Empowering white men to democratically govern all other Americans, Democrats contended, would preserve their prerogatives. With the policy of “popular sovereignty,” for instance, Democrats left slavery’s expansion to territorial settlers’ democratic decision-making.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • Book Reviews 97
    Book Reviews 97 the fleet that sailed on land, the building of the So0 Canal (which carries “more tonnage than the Panama, Suez, and Kiel canals all together”), the burning of Menominee, etc. Although ships hold the center of the stage, the reader catches glimpses of Brule, Nicolet, Marquette, Joliet, Allouez, La Salle, and Schoolcraft. Paradoxically, it is the nineteenth century names which are unfamiliar. How many Hoosiers will recall Douglas Houghton, of Detroit, a contemporary of Schoolcraft, the Indian agent! Or the Mormon, James Jesse Strang, known as the “King of Beaver Island” and by other titles far iess complimentary! Then there was George Stuntz, pioneer of the Duluth area, who early regarded the Superior region as the “future heart of the continent” (quite in contrast to Henry Clav, who objected to a prospective canal at the So0 because it was “a place beyond the remotest settlement of the United States, if not in the moon”). Fleeting attention is accorded such captains as George McKay, Charley Allers, and Tom Wilson (not to mention “Sockless” Jerry Simpson, who seldom is associated with the Lakes) and boat builders like Alexander McDougall, James Davidson, George A. Tomlinson, and Harry Coulby. Some one hundred sixty vessels are mentioned by name, beginning with the pioneer steamer “Walk-in-the-Water,” which by means of sails and forty cords of hardwood made a trip in three days from the Hudson River to Detroit. While the tragedy of the “Caroline” in 1837 is commonly known today, almost equally famous in their time were the disasters encountered by the “Phoenix,” the “Erie,” the “G.

HJST. survey Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2012 with funding from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign http://archive.org/details/englishduplicateOOdesc English Duplicates of Lost Virginia Records compiled by Louis des Cognets, Jr. © 1958, Louis des Cognets, Jr. P.O. Box 163 Princeton, New Jersey This book is dedicated to my grandmother ANNA RUSSELL des COGNETS in memory of the many years she spent writing two genealogies about her Virginia ancestors \ i FOREWORD This book was compiled from material found in the Public Record Office during the summer of 1957. Original reports sent to the Colonial Office from Virginia were first microfilmed, and then transcribed for publication. Some of the penmanship of the early part of the 18th Century was like copper plate, but some was very hard to decipher, and where the same name was often spelled in two different ways on the same page, the task was all the more difficult. May the various lists of pioneer Virginians contained herein aid both genealogists, students of colonial history, and those who make a study of the evolution of names. In this event a part of my debt to other abstracters and compilers will have been paid. Thanks are due the Staff at the Public Record Office for many heavy volumes carried to my desk, and for friendly assistance. Mrs. William Dabney Duke furnished valuable advice based upon her considerable experience in Virginia research. Mrs .Olive Sheridan being acquainted with old English names was especially suited to the secretarial duties she faithfully performed.
