OKLAHOMA'S UNITED STATES HOUSE DELEGATION AND PROGRESSIVISM, 1901-1917 By GEORGE O. CARNE~ // .

The "progressive profile" as developed in the Mowry-Chandler-Hofstadter thesis characterizes the progressive as one who possessed distinctive social, economic, and political qualities that distinguished him from the non-progressive. In 1965 in a political history seminar at Central Missouri State College, Warrensburg, Missouri, I tested the above model by using a single United States House representative from the state of Missouri. When I came to the Oklahoma State University in 1967, I decided to expand my test of this model by examining the thirteen representatives from Oklahoma during the years 1901 through 1917. In testing the thesis for Oklahoma, I investigated the social, economic, and political characteristics of the members whom Oklahoma sent to the United States House of Representatives during those years, and scrutinized the role they played in the formulation of domestic policy. In addition, a geographical analysis of the various Congressional districts suggested the effects the characteristics of the constituents might have on the representatives. -

THE MAINE INDIAN LAND CLAIM SETTLEMENT: A PERSONAL RECOLLECTION BY JOHN M.R. PATERSON From 1971 to 1980, the state of Maine grappled with one of the greatest legal challenges ever before it. That challenge had its origin in a suit brought by the Penobscot and Passamaquoddy tribes against the U.S. Department of the Interior seeking the seemingly simple declaration that the department owed a fiduciary duty to the tribes based on a federal law adopted in 1790. That suit was eventually to lead to a suit by the U.S. Department of Justice against the state of Maine, and potentially 350,000 residents in the eastern two-thirds of the state, seeking return of land taken from the tribes in the latter part of the eighteenth century and first part of the nineteenth century. -

Section 19 of the Act ("Section 19") defines "Indian" to include several categories ofpersons.2 As relevant here, the first definition inchrdes all persons of Indian descent who are members of "any recognized Indian tribe now under federal jurisdiction" ("Category 1").3 In 2009, the United States Supreme Court ("Supreme Court") in Carcieri v. Salazar constnted the term 1 "now" in Category 1 to refer to 1934, the year of the IRA's enactment. The Supreme Court did not consider the meaning ofthe phrases "under federal junsdiction" or "recognized Indian tribe." ln connection with the Tribe's pending fee-to-trust application.5 you have asked whether the Tribe is eligible for trust land acquisitions under Category 1.6 For the reasons explained below, we conclude that there is evidence presumptively demonstrating that the Tribe was "under '1934. -

The Progressive Era, 1900-1920
AP U.S. History: Unit 7.2 Student Edition The Progressive Era, 1900-1920 I. Road to Progressivism Use space below for notes A. The Greenback Labor Party of the 1870s sought to thwart the power of the "robber barons," support organized labor, and institute inflationary monetary measures. Supported primarily by farmers B. Legacy of Populism 1. Populism failed as a third-party cause but it had political influence for 25 years after its failure in the 1896 election. 2. Populist ideas that carried forward: a. railroad legislation (1903 & 1906) b. income tax (16th Amendment, 1912) c. expanded currency and credit structure (1913, 1916) d. direct election of senators (17th Amendment, 1913) e. initiative, referendum and recall (early 1900s in certain states) f. postal savings banks (1910) g. subtreasury plan (1916) 3. Though Populism was geared to rural life, many of its ideas appealed to urban progressives who sought to regulate trusts, reduce political machine influence, and remedy social injustice. POPULISM PROGRESSIVISM NEW DEAL (1890-1896) (1900-1920) (1933-1938) II. Rise of Progressivism th A. Former Mugwumps (reform-minded Republicans of the late-19 century) desired a return to pre-monopoly America. 1. Men of wealth and social standing lamented the changes in America’s political and social climate due to the rise of industrialists: monopoly, plutocracy and oligarchy. a. Protestant/Victorian ideals of hard work and morality leading to success were now threatened by the “nouveau riche,” the super wealthy, who seemed to thrive on conspicuous consumption. b. Earlier Mugwump leaders of local communities were now eclipsed by political machines catering to big business and immigrants. -
