  • Ophir Farm History R5
    Ophir Farm and Manhattanville College Dear Visitor: Dating back to the 17th century, the story of Ophir Farm combines just the right mix of historical truth and local legend, and serves as a worthy heritage for Manhattanville College, now on the same site. This booklet provides a glimpse into the history, landscaping and architecture of both and is designed to supplement your walking tour with a chronological background that will make the buildings and scenery come alive. The Ophir Farm estate was once one of the nation’s most prominent model farms, an art form and hobby pursued by affluent farmers in the 1800's. Today, it includes a rich sampling from artisans who have worked on New York City’s Central Park, the White House, the Capitol, the campuses of Harvard and Columbia, St. Patrick's Cathedral and Lincoln Center. Our guide has been created, in part, to celebrate and preserve these treasures. Gayl Braisted compiled many of the sources in this history for her Masters thesis at Manhattanville. She was extremely generous with her time and allowed portions of her thesis to be printed herein. For more information about how you can help preserve Ophir Farm, please write to me at Manhattanville College, 2900 Purchase Street, Purchase, NY 10577 or call 914-323-5288.

  • INDIANA MAGAZINE of HISTORY Volume XL December, 1944 No
    INDIANA MAGAZINE OF HISTORY Volume XL December, 1944 No. 4 Henry Watterson and the Liberal Convention of 1872 LENAC. LOGAN At the beginning of the presidential year of 1872, revolt was brewing in the incumbent Republican party against the Radical faction which dominated it. This was caused in part by Grant’s ineptitude as President, by numerous scandals in high public office, and especially by the harshness of Con- gress’ reconstruction policy toward the South. A ground swell of discontent was rising among moderate Republicans throughout the North. The movement first came to a head in Missouri. A so-called Liberal Republican group organized there in the late sixties. It was led by moderate Republicans who opposed the postwar Republican state administration’s severe proscription of ex-Confederates. Many Democrats, living under the suspicion of treason, were glad to join the group in the hope of obtaining political amnesty. The Liberals carried the Missouri state elections in 1870. They sent their outstanding leader, Carl Schurz, to the Senate and placed B. Gratz Brown in the governor’s chair. The new party’s chief principles included amnesty to the South, civil service reform, and tariff ref0rm.l The movement attracted widespread attention throughout the country because of its timeliness and success. Many people felt that it should be extended to the nation as a whole. In September of 1871, Carl Schurz raised the banner for a national Liberal independent third party to run a presi- dential candidate against Grant who was sure to be the Radicals’ choice in 1872. Reformers of various stripes cast interested glances at the project : low-tariff men, Eastern 1Earle D.

  • The Stereopticon, the Tariff Illustrated, and the 1892 Election
    chapter 1 The Stereopticon, The Tariff Illustrated, and the 1892 Election The 1892 US presidential election was a rematch that pitted former Pres- ident Grover Cleveland against President Benjamin Harrison. Cleveland was a conservative or “Bourbon Democrat” who had been elected gov- ernor of New York State in 1882 by a landslide. In 1884 he became the fi rst Democratic president since the Civil War, defeating former Senator James Blaine, a Maine Republican, by the thinnest of margins. His vic- tory depended on winning his home state, which he did by 1,047 votes out of the 1,171,312 that were cast. His strongest supporter—the one most responsible for his success—was the publisher of the New York World, Joseph Pulitzer. Pulitzer, a longtime Democrat and owner of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, had purchased the World in 1883. Barely a year later he was working hard on behalf of Cleveland’s nomination for pres- ident. During the actual campaign the World savagely attacked his Republican opponent for corruption and for his sweetheart deals with the railroads. Pulitzer’s World was particularly eff ective during the fi nal days of the campaign. For the fi rst time, and with some justice, Republi- cans could blame the liberal media for their loss of the White House, where they had enjoyed a twenty-eight-year occupancy. Mass-circula- tion daily newspapers had proved themselves to be a dominant political force, and Pulitzer had become a kingmaker.1 Four years later, Cleveland’s Republican challenger was former Indi- ana Senator Benjamin Harrison, the grandson of the ninth US president, William Henry Harrison.
