  • The Roles of George Perkins and Frank Munsey in the Progressive
    “A Progressive Conservative”: The Roles of George Perkins and Frank Munsey in the Progressive Party Campaign of 1912 A thesis submitted by Marena Cole in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History Tufts University May 2017 Adviser: Reed Ueda Abstract The election of 1912 was a contest between four parties. Among them was the Progressive Party, a movement begun by former president Theodore Roosevelt. George Perkins and Frank Munsey, two wealthy businessmen with interests in business policy and reform, provided the bulk of the Progressive Party’s funding and proved crucial to its operations. This stirred up considerable controversy, particularly amongst the party’s radical wing. One Progressive, Amos Pinchot, would later say that the two corrupted and destroyed the movement. While Pinchot’s charge is too severe, particularly given the support Perkins and Munsey had from Roosevelt, the two did push the Progressive Party to adopt a softer program on antitrust regulation and enforcement of the Sherman Antitrust Act. The Progressive Party’s official position on antitrust and the Sherman Act, as shaped by Munsey and Perkins, would cause internal ideological schisms within the party that would ultimately contribute to the party’s dissolution. ii Acknowledgements This thesis finalizes my time at the Tufts University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, which has been a tremendously challenging and fulfilling place to study. I would first like to thank those faculty at Boston College who helped me find my way to Tufts. I have tremendous gratitude to Lori Harrison-Kahan, who patiently guided me through my first experiences with archival research.

    I ON THE COVER: The Church of Allhallows in Derby. From A Book of’Arclritecture by James Giths (London, 1739), in The Chapin Library Volume 16, 1981 at Williams College. Gibbs explained the design for his contemporary addition to the old church in an accompanying note: The Church of Allhallows in Derby is a veq large fabrick, joined to afine gothick steeple. It is the moi-e beautiful for having no galleries, which, as well as pews, clog up and spoil the inside of churches, and take away from that right proportion which they otherwise would have, and are only jzutzfinble a.s they are necessary. The plainness of this building makes it less expensive, and renders it more suituble to the old steeple. CONTENTS ON THE TITLE PAGE: “Mt. Greylock from Mt. Hope Farm,” pho- tograph by William ‘Tague.

Regardless of the basis of the new party, it war. born and its first objective was to elect the "Bull Moose" presi- dent of the United States, Like any party the Progressives had to have money to operate. Two men, Frank Mnnsev and George Perkins, bore the brunt of the load. Whereas Munsey left the party after 1912, Perkins .remained and played a major role in the party's course in history. George W. Perkins, like nc-sfc Republican businessmen, had, in 1910, been prepared to re-elect President William Howard Taft in 1912. Despite President Taft's difficulties with the insurgents, Perkins' position regained much the sane throughout most of 1911.
