Wilson and Party Politics, 1855-1895 LEONARD SCHLUP ONE OF THE FOUNDING FATHERS of Iowa Republican- ism, James F. Wilson (1828-1895) represented his party and his state in the United States House of Representatives from 1861 to 1869 and the United States Senate from 1882 to 1895. A number of his contemporaries have been the subjects of excellent studies, and various memoirs and autobiogra- phies have helped to illuminate certain personalities and events of the period. ^ Yet Wilson's political career has re- ceived comparatively little notice. In the accounts of his con- temporaries, he appears in scattered references to isolated fragments of his life, while the general surveys of Iowa history either ignore him or mention him only briefly.^ He deserves better treatment. This essay sketches the outlines of Wilson's political career and suggests his role as conciliator in Iowa's Republican party politics. I hope the essay will help readers see Wilson's political career in a broader perspective 1.

    NOgse>?3 class IOWA STATE TRAVELING LIBRARY JAMES W. GRIMES, OOVERNOR OF IOWA. 1854. IOWA OFFICIAL REGISTER BY THE SECRETARY Of STATE. BY ORDER OF TEE GENERAL ASSEMBLY. 1893. Introductory- HE IOWA OFFICIAL REGISTER, compiled and published for the past few years through the State Department, was, by an T act of the Twenty-fourth General Assembly, made a State document; thus its future publication was assured and its distri- bution definitely provided. Heretofore the editions have been limited to comparatively few volumes, consequently their judicious distribution, placing them where they would accomplish the most good, was a task not easily executed; hundreds of applications for the book have been rejected because the edition was inadequate to meet the demand, and a newspaper notice from persons wishing to purchase one or more copies to complete the set, is not unfrequent. The marked approval of the OFFICIAL REGISTER by the news- papers of the State, as well as by scores of letters from individuals who regard it as invaluable in their business relations, is of itself a matter of pride to the department, as well as a reasonable motive for its existence. The following is the act of the General Assembly: CHAPTER 64. PRINTING AND DISTRIBUTION OF IOWA OFFICIAL REGISTER. AN ACT to provide for the printing and distribution of the IOWA OFFICAL REGISTER. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Iowa: SECTION 1. That the Secretary of State is hereby authorized and directed to compile and publish annually, ten thousand copies of the IOWA OFFICIAL REGIS- TER, to contain historical, political, and other statistics and facts, of general value, but nothing of a partisan character.

  • On How the Republican Party Won Elections: 1860 to 1892
    ON HOW THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WON ELECTIONS: 1860 TO 1892 Thesis Submitted to The University of Michigan-Flint In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Master of Arts in Social Sciences: U.S. History & Politics By Jordan A. Tiffany University of Michigan-Flint Flint, Michigan April 2017 ON HOW THE REPUBLICAN PARTY WON ELECTIONS: 1860 TO 1892 Name: Jordan A. Tiffany University of Michigan-Flint Advisor: Professor Kimberly Saks-McManaway The Republican Party held the Presidency from 1861 to 1885, 1897 to 1913, and 1921 to 1933. In this thesis, I will focus on the election of Lincoln in 1860 to the reelection of Cleveland in 1892. I will give the history and the reasons why the Republicans had won for so many consecutive elections. I argue that this is done in two phases for this timespan, the first phase was due to structural advantages, and the second was due to personality. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my thesis advisor Professor Kimberly Saks-McManaway at the University of Michigan-Flint.
