I 3 0307 00055 5675 -This booklet is dedicated to all the employees ofthe Department ofHuman Services, past and present, whose many years ofservice to the Department have helped improve the lives ofMinnesotans. April 15, 1998 1 Preface The work of the Department of Human Services has a long history in Minnesota, dating back almost to the inception of statehood. From the opening of the State Institute at Faribault in 1863 and St. Peter State Hospital in 1866, to the development and implementation of such programs as MinnesotaCare and the Minnesota Family Investment Program (MFIP), the Department has helped millions of Minnesotans and their families in need. The origins of the Departments programs almost exclusively began with the history of institutions in this State. Over the years, programs have evolved, taking form under the auspices of each successor; the State Board of Correction and Charities in 1883, the State Board of Control in 1901, the Department of Social Security in 1939, the Depart­ ment of Public Welfare in 1953, and finally under the name of the Department of Human Services, in 1983. Regardless of the title, the charge has remained steadfast, to serve the citizens of this State. This booklet provides a glimpse of our Department and its activities over those many years.

Hedin Editor, MLHP On November 27, 1900, Senator Cushman Kellogg Davis died in St. Paul at age sixty-two. He was governor of the state from 1875 to 1877. He was elected U. S. Senator by the state legislature in 1887 and re-elected in 1893 and 1899. Memorial services were held at a joint session of the Minnesota House of Representatives and Senate on February 18, 1901, and before the Minnesota Supreme Court on April 2, 1901. They follow. They have been reformatted. Several long paragraphs have been divided for ease of reading.

  • Guide to a Microfilm Edition of the Alexander Ramsey Papers and Records
    -~-----', Guide to a Microfilm Edition of The Alexander Ramsey Papers and Records Helen McCann White Minnesota Historical Society . St. Paul . 1974 -------~-~~~~----~! Copyright. 1974 @by the Minnesota Historical Society Library of Congress Catalog Number:74-10395 International Standard Book Number:O-87351-091-7 This pamphlet and the microfilm edition of the Alexander Ramsey Papers and Records which it describes were made possible by a grant of funds from the National Historical Publications Commission to the Minnesota Historical Society. Introduction THE PAPERS AND OFFICIAL RECORDS of Alexander Ramsey are the sixth collection to be microfilmed by the Minnesota Historical Society under a grant of funds from the National Historical Publications Commission. They document the career of a man who may be charac­ terized as a 19th-century urban pioneer par excellence. Ramsey arrived in May, 1849, at the raw settlement of St. Paul in Minne­ sota Territory to assume his duties as its first territorial gov­ ernor. The 33-year-old Pennsylvanian took to the frontier his family, his education, and his political experience and built a good life there. Before he went to Minnesota, Ramsey had attended college for a time, taught school, studied law, and practiced his profession off and on for ten years. His political skills had been acquired in the Pennsylvania legislature and in the U.S. Congress, where he developed a subtlety and sophistication in politics that he used to lead the development of his adopted city and state. Ram­ sey1s papers and records reveal him as a down-to-earth, no-non­ sense man, serving with dignity throughout his career in the U.S.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

Minnesota Bounties On Dakota Men During The .SU .-Dakota War Abstract The .SU .-Dakota War was one of the formative events in Minnesota history, and despite the passage of time, it still stirs up powerful emotions among descendants of the Dakota and white settlers who experienced this tragedy. Hundreds of people lost their lives in just over a month of fighting in 1862. By the time the year was over, thirty-eight Dakota men had been hanged in the largest mass execution in United States history. Not long afterwards, the United States abrogated its treaties with the Dakota, confiscated their reservations along the Minnesota River, and forced most of the Dakota to remove westward. While dozens of books and articles have been written about these events, scholars have largely ignored an important legal development that occurred in Minnesota during the following summer. The inneM sota Adjutant General, at the direction of Minnesota Governors Alexander Ramsey and Henry Swift, issued a series of orders offering rewards for the killing of Dakota men found within the State.

  • Minnesota's Scandinavian Political Legacy
    Minnesota’s Scandinavian Political Legacy by Klas Bergman In 1892, Minnesota politics changed, for good. In that break-through year, Norwegian-born, Knute Nelson was elected governor of Minnesota, launching a new era with immigrants and their descendants from the five Nordic countries in leadership positions, forming a new political elite that has reshaped the state’s politics. The political story of the Scandinavian immigrants in Minnesota is unique. No other state can show a similar political involvement, although there are examples of Scandinavian political leaders in other states. “Outside of the Nordic countries, no other part of the world has been so influenced by Scandinavian activities and ambitions as Minnesota,” Uppsala University professor Sten Carlsson once wrote.1 Their imprint has made Minnesota the most Scandinavian of all the states, including in politics. These Scandinavian, or Nordic, immigrants from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden created a remarkable Scandinavian political legacy that has shaped Minnesota politics in a profound way and made it different from other states, while also influencing American politics beyond Minnesota. Since 1892, the Scandinavians and their descendants have been at the forefront of every phase of Minnesota’s political history. All but five of Minnesota’s twenty-six governors during the following 100 years have been Scandinavians—mostly Swedes and Norwegians, but also a Finland-Swede and a Dane, representing all political parties, although most of them— twelve—were Republicans. Two of them were talked about as possible candidates for the highest office in the land, but died young—John Governor Knute Nelson. Vesterheim Archives.

  • Cushman Kellogg Davis”
    “CUSHMAN KELLOGG DAVIS” BY GEORGE F. HOAR __________ FOREWORD BY DOUGLAS A. HEDIN EDITOR, MLHP In The Politicos, 1865-1900 , Matthew Josephson drew portraits of the leading political figures in post-bellum America, including Cushman Kellogg Davis, whom he described as “one of the more cultivated lawyers in the upper chamber.” 1 There are many words that can be applied to Cushman Davis, and “cultivated” is one of the better ones. There seems to have been something of a battle within him—between the active life of the trial lawyer and politician and the contemplative life of writing and reading Shakespeare, biographies of Napoleon, 1 Matthew Josephson, The Politicos, 1865-1900 583 (New York: Harcourt, Brace and Co., 1938). Henry Cabot Lodge, the junior senator from Massachusetts, also used this word to describe Davis in his eulogy on January 12, 1901. “Address of Mr. Lodge, of Massachusetts,” in Memorial Addresses on the Life and Character of Cushman Kellogg Davis (Late Senator from Minnesota) Delivered in the Senate and House of Representatives, Fifty-Sixth Congress, Second Session 38, 41, 42 (Washington, D.C.: Government Printing Office, 1901) (“Yet was he none the less a man of letters—was so by his wide reading, his cultivation, and his love of learning for its own sake….Like all men of broad cultivation…). 1 histories and poetry.2 In his biography of Mark Hanna, Thomas Beer paints a vivid impression of Davis merging his work in politics with his passion for literature: He was a personage, oddly forgotten by historians, a reformer, a jingo, an imperialist, and yet a critical patriot.
