  • History of the U.S. Attorneys
    Bicentennial Celebration of the United States Attorneys 1789 - 1989 "The United States Attorney is the representative not of an ordinary party to a controversy, but of a sovereignty whose obligation to govern impartially is as compelling as its obligation to govern at all; and whose interest, therefore, in a criminal prosecution is not that it shall win a case, but that justice shall be done. As such, he is in a peculiar and very definite sense the servant of the law, the twofold aim of which is that guilt shall not escape or innocence suffer. He may prosecute with earnestness and vigor– indeed, he should do so. But, while he may strike hard blows, he is not at liberty to strike foul ones. It is as much his duty to refrain from improper methods calculated to produce a wrongful conviction as it is to use every legitimate means to bring about a just one." QUOTED FROM STATEMENT OF MR. JUSTICE SUTHERLAND, BERGER V. UNITED STATES, 295 U. S. 88 (1935) Note: The information in this document was compiled from historical records maintained by the Offices of the United States Attorneys and by the Department of Justice. Every effort has been made to prepare accurate information. In some instances, this document mentions officials without the “United States Attorney” title, who nevertheless served under federal appointment to enforce the laws of the United States in federal territories prior to statehood and the creation of a federal judicial district. INTRODUCTION In this, the Bicentennial Year of the United States Constitution, the people of America find cause to celebrate the principles formulated at the inception of the nation Alexis de Tocqueville called, “The Great Experiment.” The experiment has worked, and the survival of the Constitution is proof of that.

  • CENTURY ASSOCIATION BUILDING 109-111 East 15Th Street, Manhattan
    Landmarks Preservation Commission January 5, 1993, Designation List 248 LP-1763 (FORMER) CENTURY ASSOCIATION BUILDING 109-111 East 15th Street, Manhattan. Built 1869; architects Gambrill & Richardson. Landmark Site: Borough of Manhattan Tax Map Block 871, Lot 10. On December 12, 1989, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the (Former) Century Club Building and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 27). The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. Thirteen witnesses spoke in favor of designation. A representative of the owner did not take a position regarding the designation and no witnesses spoke in opposition to designation. The hearing was continued on April 3, 1990 (Item No. 22). At that time eight letters were read into the official record, including one letter from the owner, expressing opposition to designation, and seven letters in favor of designation. The Commission has received other letters in favor of designation. Summary The Century Association Building was designed by the firm of Gambrill & Richardson, whose partners were both members of the association and one of whom, Henry Hobson Richardson, went on to become one of this country's most prominent architects. Built in 1869, the building appears to be Manhattan's oldest surviving structure erected as a clubhouse. Its exterior, which remains remarkably intact, heralded a wave of neo-Grec buildings in the early 1870s. The Century Association, founded in 1847 to promote interest in literature and the arts, attracted authors, artists, and amateurs of letters and the fine arts, many of whom were national leaders in their fields.

  • By Francis R. Kowsky, University of Massachusetts Press, 2013
    “The Best Planned City in the World; Olmsted, Vaux, and the Buffalo Park System” by Francis R. Kowsky, University of Massachusetts Press, 2013 Reviewed by Peter Harnik Landscape Journal, forthcoming Before Chicago there was Buffalo. Before sunrises bounced off the shimmering waters of Lake Michigan onto the grand economic powerhouse of the Windy City, sunsets bounced off the shimmering waters of Lake Erie over the grand economic powerhouse of the Queen City. Before Frederick Law Olmsted worked his design magic on the World Columbian Exhibition and Jackson Park, he and Calvert Vaux had worked their magic on Delaware Park, Scajaquada Parkway and the Front. In the middle of the 19th century, playing off its key location between the Great Lakes and the one flatwater route to the Atlantic Ocean at New York City, Buffalo flourished. The success began in 1825 with the Erie Canal and then mushroomed through the proliferation of railroads paralleling and in fact overshadowing the pathbreaking waterway. Through another geographical quirk, while Buffalo was spared the carnage of the Civil War, it profited hugely from the shipment and manufacture of all kinds of needed war materiel. By 1890 the city would become the world’s largest coal and lumber distribution center while it also manufactured fertilizer, soap, railroad cars, milling machinery, refrigerators, carriages, farm implements, iron stoves, bridges, scales, boots, shoes and furniture. At the time the nation’s eighth-largest city, it gave the U.S. two Presidents, and was reputed to have a higher percentage of millionaires than any other place in the U.S.

  • The Syracuse Chamber of Commerce Lists Eleven Reasons for Support by Syracusans of the Million Dollar Drive; They Are: 1
    ANNALS The Syracuse Chamber of Commerce lists eleven reasons for support by Syracusans of the million dollar drive; They are: 1. "To clear the University of debt by June 30, 1927, $1,500,000 must be raised. Pledges on a three year basis. 2. "Paying present obligations will cancel interest charges after which any small deficit can easily be taken care of. 3. "After the University sets its house in order, it will be in a better position to ·expect assistance from capitalists and endowment foundations. 4. "From a business standpoint the University is the largest industry in the city and means more financially to our merchants than any two of our largest manufacturing plants. Students and employes spend over $6,500,000 a year in Syracuse. 5. "Two thousand sons and daughters of residents of Syracuse and On­ ondaga County attend the University.
