Bachelor of Arts Central Missouri State College Warrensburg, Missouri 1964 Master of Arts Central Missouri State College Warrensburg, Missouri 1965 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May, 1972 OKLAHOMA STATE UNiVERSITY LIBRARY MAY 30 1973 ::.a-:r...... ... ~·· .. , .• ··~.• .. ,..,,.·· ,,.,., OKLAHOMA'S UNITED STATES HOUSE DELEGATION AND PROGRESSIVIS~, 1901-1917 Thesis Approved: Oean of the Graduate College PREFACE This dissertation is a study for a single state, Oklahoma, and is designed to test the prevailing Mowry-Chandler-Hofstadter thesis concerning progressivism. The "progressive profile" as developed in the Mowry-Chandler-Hofstadter thesis characterizes the progressive as one who possessed distinctive social, economic, and political qualities that distinguished him from the non-progressive. In 1965 in a political history seminar at Central Missouri State College, Warrensburg, Missouri, I tested the above model by using a single United States House representative from the state of Missouri. When I came to the Oklahoma State University in 1967, I decided to expand my test of this model by examining the thirteen representatives from Oklahoma during the years 1901 through 1917. In testing the thesis for Oklahoma, I investigated the social, economic, and political characteristics of the members whom Oklahoma sent to the United States House of Representatives during those years, and scrutinized the role they played in the formulation of domestic policy. In addition, a geographical analysis of the various Congressional districts suggested the effects the characteristics of the constituents might have on the representatives.

Wilson edited by Hans Binnendijk BINNENDIJK Center for Technology and National Security Policy The National Defense University (NDU) established the Center for Technology and National Security Policy in June 2001 to study the implications of technological innovation for U.S. national security policy and military planning. The center combines scientific and technical assessments with analyses of current strategic and defense policy issues. Its major initial areas of focus include: (1) technologies and concepts that encourage and/or enable the transformation of the Armed Forces, (2) developments by defense laboratories, (3) investments in research, development, and acquisition and improvements to their processes, (4) relationships among the Department of Defense, the industrial sector, and academe, and (5) social science techniques that enhance the detection and prevention of conflict. The staff is led by two senior analysts who hold the Roosevelt Chair of National Security Policy and the A PUBLICATION OF THE Edison Chair of Science and Technology and who can call on the expertise of the NDU community and CENTER FOR TECHNOLOGY AND NATIONAL SECURITY POLICY colleagues at institutions nationwide.

  • Sault Ste. Marie, 1853-1854 and After $21.50
    Sault Ste. Marie, 1853-1854 and After $21.50 TO BUILD A CANAL Sault Ste. Marie, 1853-1854 and After John N. Dickinson Nature has surrounded Lake Superior with immense and valuable forests, and has placed near its shores rich lodes of copper and, in the famed Mesabi Range, the world's largest and most accessible deposits of iron ore. But Na­ ture has also, by some quirk of geology and accident of geography, caused Lake Superior to have an elevation twenty-one feet higher than that of Lake Huron, into which it flows, and has connected the two by a river that, though sixty-three miles in over-all length, completes the drop in elevation in a stretch of precipitous rapids three-fourths of a mile long and a quarter of a mile wide, down which rushes 74,000 cubic feet of water per second as Superior races into Huron. The story of the construction of a bypass to this formidable natural barrier to the free passage of raw mate­ rials from the American Midwest to the great commercial centers of the eastern United States and beyond is the subject of this reveal­ ing and entertaining book. Traders who visited the area that the French had dubbed the Sault Ste. Marie had, as early as the eighteenth century, discerned the need to build a canal to circumvent the falls in the St. Mary's River, and one, of a sort, was indeed already in operation in the days of George Washington. A far more efficient waterway than this primitive expedient was clearly required, however, if the iron ore so abundant in Minnesota and Michigan was to join the coal and limestone of Ohio and Penn­ sylvania in the mills and furnaces surrounding the lower Great Lakes; and in 1853, after years of legislative haggling and political maneuver­ ing, construction of the St.
