By Frank Bohn The Public is an Editorial paper that puts all public questions to the supreme test of obvious moral principles and stands by the results. While The Public's editorial policy is as broad as fundamental democracy itself, its editorials and special articles frequently deal with the land question, because the right settlement of it is the first step toward freedom.

    SSOOCCIIAALLIISSTT LLAABBOORR PPAARRTTYY:: 11990066 ––11993300 A 40TH ANNIVERSARY SKETCH OF ITS EARLY HISTORY By Olive M. Johnson OLIVE M. JOHNSON (1872–1954) [EDITOR’S NOTE: For purposes of continuity, it is recommended that Henry Kuhn’s sketch of SLP history from 1890 to 1906 be read first.] EITHER the grilling financial struggle nor even the conspiracies and treacheries tell the whole tale of the Party’s history during the decade from NN1895 to 1905. The really important thing is that in the crucible of struggle its principles and policies and with it the principles and policies of the revolutionary movement of America were cast and clarified. De Leon himself grew in stature and conception during these trying years. It is necessary here to review the situation. Party Policy Clarified. Long before 1905 De Leon, and with him the Socialist Labor Party, had perceived that the policy known as “boring from within” the labor unions would never accomplish its aim of turning the members of the “pure and simple” faker-led American Federation of Labor (A.F. of L.) into classconscious Socialists. The most active members in fact were “boring themselves out.” At the same time it was becoming ever clearer to the S.L.P. that the political movement of the workers must have “an economic foundation.” This foundation, of course, pointed directly to the shop and factory; but the shop and factory were either left entirely unorganized or in the hands of the A.F. of L., which, as was becoming increasingly clearer, while an organization of workers, was officered by “lieutenants” of the capitalists, hence just as much a capitalist organization as the German army was a ruling class Socialist Labor Party 1 www.slp.org Olive M.

An Abstract of “Keep Your Dirty Lights On:” Electrification and the Ideological Origins of Energy Exceptionalism in American Society by Daniel A. French Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in History The University of Toledo December 2014 Electricity has been defined by American society as a modern and clean form of energy since it came into practical use at the end of the nineteenth century, yet no comprehensive study exists which examines the roots of these definitions. This dissertation considers the social meanings of electricity as an energy technology that became adopted between the mid- nineteenth and early decades of the twentieth centuries. Arguing that both technical and cultural factors played a role, this study shows how electricity became an abstracted form of energy in the minds of Americans. As technological advancements allowed for an increasing physical distance between power generation and power consumption, the commodity of electricity became consciously detached from the steam and coal that produced it.

    URSULA LEHMKUHL Universität Trier JOHANN HEINRICH CARL – THE REVOLUTIONARY: THE HISTORY AND COLLECTIVE MEMORY OF A GERMAN- AMERICAN FAMILY, 1852-20041 INTRODUCTION In 2004 the North America Letter Collection (Nordamerika-Briefsammlung)2 received an extraordinary letter series consisting of 202 letters written by 19 different authors, all members of a large transatlantic family network.3 They wrote to each other beginning in the mid-19th century after four out of fi ve children had immigrated to the United States. Letters were written to family members in Germany and between family members in the United States settling in different places in Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin, New Jersey, Florida, to name just a few. Thus, the letter series does not only contain homeland letters, i.e. letters written to the relatives who stayed at home in Germany, but also letters written between family members in the United States, so-called America letters. The core letter writers of this letter series were for one the “pater familias” Johann Heinrich Carl Bohn, in short Heinrich, of whom nine letters, written between 1856 and 1883, have been preserved. In addition we have letters from his oldest son Carl Heinrich, or Charles (23 letters written between 1861-1878), his two youngest sons William (23 letters, 1905-1967) and Frank (26 letters, 1 This article was written during my time as Senior Fellow at the Martin Buber Society of Fellows, Hebrew University Jerusalem.

    Changing Chapultepec: Construction, Consumption, and Cultural Politics in a Mexico City Forest, 1934-1944 A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Andrea Kristine Moerer IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Patrick J. McNamara, Sarah C. Chambers December 2013 © Andrea Kristine Moerer 2013 Acknowledgements As hopefully all are, this dissertation was a labor of love. And much like love, its creation has consisted of episodes of transcendence interspersed among years of hard work and self-doubt. I would not have conceived of or completed this project without the professional advisement of Patrick McNamara and Sarah Chambers. They, in addition to the rest of my committee members: Jeffrey Pilcher, Helga Leitner, and David Chang, were (and are) diligent, supportive, kind, and shockingly brilliant. The faculty at the University of Minnesota's department of history provided a strong foundation not only to this dissertation, but for wider professional goals, and the staff ensured that everything happened on time and with the proper paperwork. Fellow graduate students, particularly Latin Americanists, were wonderful colleagues, passing along Chapultepec citations, commiserating over exams, and providing much-needed moments of levity. As a student, I was fortunate to receive several awards which allowed me to further my thesis, including: GRPP, FLAS, Hannah C. Stocker Fellowship, and an American Society for Environmental History NSF graduate student travel grant. Recently, I've had the privilege of being a visiting instructor at Macalester College and at Hamline University where my colleagues have unquestionably improved not only my teaching but this dissertation.

In the following pages the flight of German Socialist refugees in France and the work for saving them is described. June, 1940. - Armistice. A vast stream of refugees - about 13 million men - flooded over France. Villages became cities. Toulouse grew, in 72 hours, to a city of 700.000 inhabitants, being formerly a town of 150.000. There were no empty rooms, no beds available. Masses lodged in halls, station buildings, barracks, schools, or in the streets. Defeat and flight had deprived them of everything: of hope, energy, home and property. The only thing they had got was the certainty, relieving and at the same time disgraceful: "For us, the war is over!" The alien refugees Among these millions, there were some thousand German and Austrian refugees who had every reason to think quite differently. A time of terror started for them. Clause 19 of the armistice conditions provided the extradition of Germans. Almost all the refugees feared that this clause might apply to them. Their mental situation was quite as miserable as their material situation. Almost all of them had been interned for some time.

Collapse of the Henry George Movement—Dissension in the Early Labor Movement—Ill-Starred Rosenberg-Busche Struggle for Sounder S.L.P. Political Policy N 1887 THE HENRY GEORGE MOVEMENT went to pieces. Only a year Ibefore, in 1886, Henry George, candidate for mayor of New York on the ticket of the United Labor Party, had loomed up a big figure in the political arena. Sixty-eight thousand (68,000) votes were cast for Henry George, not in modern Greater New York, but in old New York limited to a much smaller number of voters than are now eligible to vote in the Borough of Manhattan alone. The fact is also to be borne in mind that this happened in the days when ballot-box stuffing was quite freely indulged in, repeating being practiced by both Tammany Hall and the Republican Party. So general was this foul practice that men boasted openly of having voted early and often; and many, in fact, considered themselves good American citizens because they not only voted once on election day, but a number of times, each time in a different district.

  • THE 1920S TEXAS KU KLUX KLAN REVISITED
    THE 1920s TEXAS KU KLUX KLAN REVISITED: WHITE SUPREMACY AND STRUCTURAL POWER IN A RURAL COUNTY A Dissertation by KATHERINE KUEHLER WALTERS Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, Carlos K. Blanton Co-Chair of Committee, Walter L. Buenger Committee Members, Wendy Leo Moore Sonia Hernandez Sarah McNamara Head of Department, David Vaught May 2018 Major Subject: History Copyright 2018 Katherine Kuehler Walters ABSTRACT The second Ku Klux Klan made its first public appearance in Texas at a United Confederate Veterans parade in October 1920, then quickly expanded across the state. Founder William J. Simmons created this organization as an exclusive, secretive fraternal group that both celebrated the original Ku Klux Klan (KKK) and responded to contemporary societal concerns of white native-born men and women in post-World- War-I America. Using a propaganda campaign, the organization preached the supremacy of a racialized Anglo-Saxon American identity, defined in terms of contemporary pseudo-scientific racial ideology as white, Protestant, native-born, and anti-radical, to recruit millions of members from across the nation within a few short years. Based on membership rolls and minutes of a Texas Klan chapter, this dissertation argues that, behind a façade of moral law and order, the Ku Klux Klan in rural Texas was a 1920s manifestation of a long-held racist ideology that utilized traditional practices of control through kinship, violence, and structural power to assert and protect white supremacy.
