  • Overseas Expansion: Global Competition Over Resources and Power Led to American Expansion and Creating a Pacific Influence Empire
    Name __________________________________ Date _____________ S. S. 8 Statement of Inquiry Overseas Expansion: Global competition over resources and power led to American expansion and Creating a Pacific influence Empire ALASKA Prior to 1860, the Russians had a profitable seal and sea otter fur industry established off the coast of Alaska. After 1860, however, the Russians had killed off most of the furbearing animals. Russian interest in Alaska began to decline and the Russian government was looking to sell the land. In 1867, Russia offered to sell Alaska to the United States for $7.2 million. Secretary of State William Seward (under President Andrew Johnson) was interested in this offer. He argued that it was a great value at only 2 cents per acre and could provide natural resources such as fish, lumber, and minerals. It would also give the United States important seaports for dominating trade in the Pacific. Seward argued that if the United States did not purchase Alaska, another powerful nation would. However, some Americans objected to the purchase. They said that Alaska was a worthless wasteland. They called Alaska “Seward’s Icebox,” the “Polar Bear Garden” and “Seward’s Folly.” (folly=foolish) Others argued that the United States had no right to buy “outside territory,” land not connected to the United States. Seward finally won out. In April 1867, the United States agreed to purchase Alaska from the Russians. As a result of the purchase, the United States added about 600,000 square miles of land to its territory for only $7,200,000. Many Americans realized that this purchase was no mistake.

  • Status and Population Trends of Hawaii's Native
    Wilson Bull., 105(l), 1993, pp. 142-158 STATUS AND POPULATION TRENDS OF HAWAIIS’ NATIVE WATERBIRDS, 1977-1987 ANDREW ENGILIS, JR. ’ AND THANE K. PRATT* ABSTRACT.- Status and population trends of Hawaiis’ native waterbirds were examined from 1977 through 1987. Waterbird population fluctuations were analyzed in relation to rainfall and land use dynamics. Numbers of Hawaiian Duck (Koloa) (Anus wyvilliana) and Hawaiian Common Moorhen (Gallinula chloropussandvicensis) appeared stable over time; however, surveys were limited. Increase in Black-crowned Night-Heron (Nycticoruxnyctic- orux) abundance appeared linked to expansion of aquaculture, particularly on Oahu, and not to climatic events. Annual rainfall patterns help explain and predict population fluc- tuations and anomalous distribution patterns involving Hawaiian American Coots (Fulica americana alai), moorhens, and Hawaiian Black-necked Stilts (Himantopus mexicanus knudseni).Coot, stilt, and moorhen populations fluctuated with climatic events, and intra- island dispersal to ephemeral wetlands occurred. Stilts exhibited regular inter-island migra- tory behavior, but coots dispersed in relation to major rainfall events. Seasonal fluctuation recorded for coots by past observers is the result of survey techniques not accounting for seasonal dispersal patterns. Received10 Jan. 1992, accepted28 Sept. 1992. The Hawaiian Islands probably have lost, as a result of human activity, more species of birds than any other locality in the world. Extinctions during the first 2000 years of human habitation (Olson and James 1982a) resulted in the loss of 50% of native avian species. Unfortunately this process has accelerated during the past 200 years, and of the remaining 40 endemic species, 70% currently are endangered. Recognizing these trends, resource managers and conservation organizations have attempted to develop and implement essential habitat inventories and management programs.

  • Establishment of the Public Archives of Hawaii As a Territorial Agency
    Establishment of the Public Archives of Hawaii as a Territorial Agency By CHESTER RAYMOND YOUNG Downloaded from http://meridian.allenpress.com/american-archivist/article-pdf/30/1/67/2744960/aarc_30_1_xq4852040p211x1u.pdf by guest on 25 September 2021 Vanderbilt University T THE Honolulu office of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey, on January 26, 1903, William DeWitt Alexander A received a caller from Washington, D.C. This stranger was Worthington C. Ford, Chief of the Manuscript Division of the Library of Congress, then on his way to Manila to inspect the archives of the Philippine Islands. Listed as bound for Hong Kong, Ford had arrived in port the preceding afternoon aboard the liner Korea of the Pacific Mail Steamship Co., less than 5 days out of San Francisco.1 Doubtless he called on Alexander as the corre- sponding secretary of the Hawaiian Historical Society and the leading Hawaiian historian of his day. In his diary Alexander recorded the visit with this brief note: "Mr. W. C. Ford of the Congressional Library called, to inquire about the Govt Archives."2 Ford learned that the records of the defunct Kingdom of Hawaii were for the most part in Honolulu in various government buildings, particularly in Iolani Palace, which served as the Territorial Capitol. The Secretary of Hawaii was charged with the duty of keeping the legislative and diplomatic archives of the Kingdom, but his custody of them was only legal and perfunctory, with little or no attention given to their preserva- tion. Other records of the monarchy officials were in the care of their successors under the Territory of Hawaii.
