The Crowded Field: Eight Men for the Senate
Copyright © 1979 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. The Crowded Field: Eight Men for the Senate RALPH R. TINGLEY Party factionalism, individual ambitions, and personal rivalries contributed in 1924 to a situation unique in South Dakota politics. The names of eight candidates vying for one seat in the United States Senate graced the November ballots. Beyond the multiplicity of candidates, the election contest was also marked by its longevity, an element aggravated by a complex primary system initiated by the Richards Primary Law of 1918. Under this law, the election process started on the second Tuesday of November in the preceding year so that almost twelve months passed before final office holders were elected. The 1924 election, therefore, started on 13 November 1923, when every precinct elected three proposalmen for each party. Besides selecting county candidates, these proposalmen also chose three of their number from the county to assemble with other county delegations on 4 December to propose candidates and prepare a state platform for their party. At this state meeting in Pierre, each delegate had the power to cast votes totaling one-third the number of votes cast in his county for the party's gubernatorial choice in the preceding election. Proposal- men who dissented from the majority nomination could file an alternate slate. Any additional nonconformists were required to file as independents, without majority or minority sponsorship but with individual petitions that had endorsements representing at least 1 percent of the total number of votes cast for the party's Copyright © 1979 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. -
Historical Quotations the Women of Congress Speak Their Mind
Historical Quotations the women of congress speak their mind “A few of [the party leaders] opposed my nomination, but most of them thought it would be a graceful gesture which would do them no harm since they were sure I would get tired of politics in a few months, and flit on to something else.” — Representative Frances Bolton Women in Congress, page 191 Frances Payne Bolton U.S. Representative, 1940–1969 Republican from Ohio “How shall we answer the challenge, gentlemen? How shall we explain to them the meaning of democracy if the same Congress that voted to make the world safe for democracy refuses to give this small measure of democracy to the women of our country?” — Representative Jeannette Rankin Women in Congress, page 39 Jeannette Rankin U.S. Representative, 1940–1969 U.S. Representative, 1941–1943 Republican from Montana “I believe that woman’s place is in the home. But I believe that the modern mother considers the world her home. The community in which she lives and the children grow is her home and for that reason she should assure herself of the opportunity of getting good government.” — Representative Ruth Bryan Owen Women in Congress, page 91 Frances Payne Bolton U.S. Representative, 1940–1969 Republican from Ohio the women of congress speak their mind Women in Congress, 1917–2006 historical quotations to accompany lesson plan seven http: womenincongress.house.gov page 1 of 4 “We will no longer wait for political power to be shared with us, we will take it.” — Representative Cardiss Collins Women in Congress, page 508 Cardiss Collins U.S. -

Foundation's 2020 Annual Report
FOUNDATION’S 2020 ANNUAL REPORT The Trail of Governors project survived the year 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic by hitting pause. The Trail of Governors Foundation board members decided to hold off on hosting an unveiling ceremony or installing new statues. The actual trail remains as it appeared at the start of 2020, with 25 bronze statues. While in pause mode, the board was still obligated to make payments to the artists for their work to-date on the year’s commissioned statues. Attempts to seek donors and payments from those that relayed interest in donating pre-Covid-19 were dismal given the economic uncertainty and health concerns brought by the pandemic. Therefore, board members and advisors got busy filling out applications for grants to find financial assistance. The project was awarded two grants, one from the South Dakota Small Business Grant for $80,000 and one from the South Dakota Humanities Council’s CARES Relief Act for $10,000. These grants provided the necessary support to make M.Charles Michael Herreid Rounds – 4th- 31st Governor Governor of Southof South Dakota Dakota payments to the 2020 – now year 2021 – sculptors. 2020 Trail of Governors Annual Report Charles H. Sheldon, a Pierpont Republican and farmer, was the state’s 2nd governor. He served in the territorial legislative council prior to being elected governor. Sheldon was a popular Straight orator, representing the Republican party at events across South Dakota following his term Ahead, 2021 as governor. It was in Deadwood where he died from pneumonia while on such a tour. Board members remain focused on the unveiling ceremony scheduled for10 a.m. -
Patriotic Pageantry: Presidential Visits to South Dakota
Copyright © 2001 by the South Dakota State Historical Society. All Rights Reserved. Patriotic Pageantry: Presidential Visits to South Dakota Harold H. Scbuler outh Dakota citizens came out by the thousands to welcome thirteen presidents from 1899 to 1999. Flags and bunting float- Sed from rooftops and doorways, bands played, and bells rang to mark each gala occasion. Cheering crowds jammed parade routes and strained to catch sight of the president. A hol- iday atmosphere surrounded the visit of William McKinley, the first presidential visitor to the state, when an estimated one hun- dred thousand people gathered in city streets and at railroad depots to see him. The only nineteenth-centur>' president to visit South Dakota, McKinley was also the only president unaccom- panied by the Secret Service. Established in 1865 to investigate rampant counterfeiting, the agency was not charged with pro- tecting the president until after McKinley's assassination in 1901. Throughout the 1900s, presidential visits continued to be awe- inspiring public events, with thirty-six South Dakota cities host- ing at least one president. More than patriotic pageantry for just one man, these visits were also the story of a traveling White House amidst a swirl of Secret Service security, press corps, and politics. William McKinley, 14 October 1899 n the third year of his presidency. William McKinley agreed to visit South Dakota on 14 October 1899 as a part of a mid- Iwestern tour. It may well have been the state's biggest one- day celebration as the president "was met with tlie most enthu- siastic ovation at every point," the Aberdeen Daily Neu)S report- ed. -
