William Jennings Bryan and His Opposition to American Imperialism in the Commoner
The Uncommon Commoner: William Jennings Bryan and his Opposition to American Imperialism in The Commoner by Dante Joseph Basista Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in the History Program YOUNGSTOWN STATE UNIVERSITY August, 2019 The Uncommon Commoner: William Jennings Bryan and his Opposition to American Imperialism in The Commoner Dante Joseph Basista I hereby release this thesis to the public. I understand that this thesis will be made available from the OhioLINK ETD Center and the Maag Library Circulation Desk for public access. I also authorize the University or other individuals to make copies of this thesis as needed for scholarly research. Signature: Dante Basista, Student Date Approvals: Dr. David Simonelli, Thesis Advisor Date Dr. Martha Pallante, Committee Member Date Dr. Donna DeBlasio, Committee Member Date Dr. Salvatore A. Sanders, Dean of Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT This is a study of the correspondence and published writings of three-time Democratic Presidential nominee William Jennings Bryan in relation to his role in the anti-imperialist movement that opposed the US acquisition of the Philippines, Guam and Puerto Rico following the Spanish-American War. Historians have disagreed over whether Bryan was genuine in his opposition to an American empire in the 1900 presidential election and have overlooked the period following the election in which Bryan’s editorials opposing imperialism were a major part of his weekly newspaper, The Commoner. The argument is made that Bryan was authentic in his opposition to imperialism in the 1900 presidential election, as proven by his attention to the issue in the two years following his election loss. -
University Micrdfilms International 300 N
INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. -

Since John Commons's History of Labor in America, the overwhelming majority of histories of the American labor movement have depicted 19th century unionism as little more than the ideological seed from which modern American unionism grew. -

BIVONA** INTRODUCTION The Delaware Supreme Court delivered its final opinion in the highly publicized case, Brehm v. Eisner (the Disney case), which involved the firing without cause of Disney's president, Michael Ovitz., This not- for-cause termination resulted in a $130 million severance package after only fourteen months of service.2 Ovitz's termination was effected on Disney's behalf by its chief executive officer (CEO) Michael Eisner.3 The Delaware Supreme Court affirmed the chancery court's decision, ruling that the business judgment rule protected the decision to terminate Ovitz, and the accompanying severance payment.4 Consequently, the defendant directors and officers did not violate their fiduciary duties or commit waste.5 Much scholarly writing has been * Rupert and Lillian Radford Professor and Senior Associate Dean for Research, Southern Methodist University Dedman School of Law. -

Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy
Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy Management Plan February 2016 Cover artwork: Wayne Carlick Foreword Tlingit Elders teach their people to work respectfully with all those who come to Taku River Tlingit traditional territory, to find ways to work together with respect and harmony. This conservancy management plan is part of the on-going collaboration between the Taku River Tlingit First Nation and the Province of British Columbia to sustainably manage the lands and resources of Tlingit territory through mutual respect and understanding. Wóoshtin wudidaa (the Atlin Taku Land Use Plan) set the stage for the Tlingit vision for a connected network of protected areas to be realized. These protected areas were identified to: protect important Tlingit cultural sites and landscapes; ensure continuation of Tlingit khustiyxh (way of life); sustain biological diversity and important wildlife habitats; and protect landscapes and places of importance for recreation and tourism. The Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy is an important part of Tlingit Tlatsini – the network of “places that make us strong.” We invite you to read and understand the importance of this place to the Tlingit people, and to others who make this region their home. We also invite you to explore and enjoy Monarch Mountain/A Xéegi Deiyi Conservancy, and take part in conserving and protecting its resources for future generations.
