  • Cushman Kellogg Davis”
    “CUSHMAN KELLOGG DAVIS” BY GEORGE F. HOAR __________ FOREWORD BY DOUGLAS A. HEDIN EDITOR, MLHP In The Politicos, 1865-1900 , Matthew Josephson drew portraits of the leading political figures in post-bellum America, including Cushman Kellogg Davis, whom he described as “one of the more cultivated lawyers in the upper chamber.” 1 There are many words that can be applied to Cushman Davis, and “cultivated” is one of the better ones. There seems to have been something of a battle within him—between the active life of the trial lawyer and politician and the contemplative life of writing and reading Shakespeare, biographies of Napoleon, 1 Matthew Josephson, The Politicos, 1865-1900 583 (New York: Harcourt, Brace and Co., 1938). Henry Cabot Lodge, the junior senator from Massachusetts, also used this word to describe Davis in his eulogy on January 12, 1901. “Address of Mr. Lodge, of Massachusetts,” in Memorial Addresses on the Life and Character of Cushman Kellogg Davis (Late Senator from Minnesota) Delivered in the Senate and House of Representatives, Fifty-Sixth Congress, Second Session 38, 41, 42 (Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, 1901) (“Yet was he none the less a man of letters—was so by his wide reading, his cultivation, and his love of learning for its own sake….Like all men of broad cultivation…). 1 histories and poetry.2 In his biography of Mark Hanna, Thomas Beer paints a vivid impression of Davis merging his work in politics with his passion for literature: He was a personage, oddly forgotten by historians, a reformer, a jingo, an imperialist, and yet a critical patriot.
