  • The Election of Beveridge to the Senate* CHARLESF
    The Election of Beveridge to the Senate* CHARLESF. REMY It was in October, 1898. William McKinley was President of the United States, and James A. Mount was Governor of Indiana, each having been elected in 1896. Charles W‘. Fairbanks was United States Senator, from Indiana, having been elected by the Legislature of 1897. The people of Indiana were in a hot political campaign in 1898, because the new As- sembly would choose a successor to David Turpie to sit in the United States Senate. The Democrats were hopeful be- cause it was an off-year campaign, and they were expecting the usual reaction against the party in power. The Repub- lican party was united and c0nfident.l Prosperity was re- turning, following a four-year period of business depression, referred to by Republicans as the “Cleveland Panic.” It was the old fashioned political campaign with the issues being discussed by public speakers in all towns and cities of the state. Political oratory was in demand. The leading Re- publican sepakers in the campaign were James E. Watson, J. Frank Hanly, John L. Griffith and Albert J. Beveridge. They were all great speakers, but each had his individual style, and each had his special friends and admirers. Watson at the time represented what was then the sixth congressional district, known as “The Burnt District”.2 None of the other three at that time held political office, though Hanly had served one term in Congress. He had been elected in 1894, but was defeated for renomination by Edgar D. Crumpacker in 1896.

Daniels, Jr. Dear Students, Thank you for taking an interest in your state government. On the following pages, you will learn how your government functions, discover more about the people who lead our great state, and see the symbols that represent us. But, I would like to share with you an idea that won’t be defined in this booklet - your role as an inspiration to this government. When I first decided to run for Governor, I spoke of the need for change in our state to make it a better place for our children. After I placed my hand on the Bible and took the oath office to become your Governor, I asked Hoosiers across the state to keep in mind that our children were watching and depending upon us to make Indiana a better place to call home. Lawmakers heard this call and acted to create more jobs, improve our schools, and protect the children who need it most. We are holding up our end of the bargain. Now I have a request of you. Indiana needs you to be ready. The work you are doing today in school is as important as my work today as Governor. Our state is counting on you to study hard, continue your education beyond college, and graduate ready to play your role in our society.

Hoosier is the nickname given to residents of Indiana. No one has been able to trace the exact origin of the word, but historians believe its use dates back at least 160 years. Here are a few of the popular theories about where the word came from: One story says when visitors knocked on the door of a pioneer’s cabin in Indiana, the cabin’s owner would respond, "Who's yere?" From this frequent response, the story claims Indiana became the "Who's yere," or Hoosier, state. A theory offered by Governor Joseph Wright (served 1849-1857) says the word Hoosier came from the Indian word for corn: "hoosa." Workers from Indiana taking corn to New Orleans came to be known as "hoosa men" or Hoosiers. Unfortunately for this theory, a search of Indian vocabularies failed to reveal any such word for corn.

  • The Geography of Indiana's Governors
    The Geography of Indiana’s Governors STEPHENS. VISHER A study of birthplaces and various other geographic facts relative to the governors and lieutenant governors of Indiana has revealed several little known facts of interest. Since 1816, when Indiana came into the Union, thirty-five men have been governors of the State.’ Under the Constitution of 1916, the governor’s term was three years, but since the second constitution went into effect in 1851, the term is four years. Before 1851 a governor could be reelected, but since then a governor is not eligible for a second consecutive term. Before 1851, three governors served single terms of three years each. Two were reelected and served six years each, while two others who were reelected did not fill out the second term. Joseph A. Wright was elected for a three year term in 1849. While he was governor, the second constitution was framed and ratified, and he was made eligible for the four year term, which was to begin in January, 1853. In the period of three-year terms, governors were in- augurated early in December, but since 1852, their terms begin in January. Governor Wright, therefore, served a lit- tle more than seven years (Dec., 1849 to Jan., 1857). Including Governor Wright, and not counting the pres- ent incumbent, fourteen governors have served full four- year terms. Sime 1857, four governors elected for four years did not serve out their terms. Before 1849, there were two governors who served less than one year each, Ratlif Boone (1822 )and Paris C. Dunning (1849).
