  • Benjamin Harrison the President As Conservationist
    Benjamin Harrison The president as conservationist EPISODE TRANSCRIPT Listen to Presidential at http://wapo.st/presidential This transcript was run through an automated transcription service and then lightly edited for clarity. There may be typos or small discrepancies from the podcast audio. LILLIAN CUNNINGHAM: It's that time in the American presidency when we have reached the age of recordings, and our subject this week, Benjamin Harrison, is the first president whose voice we can hear. It sounds like this: VOICE OF BENJAMIN HARRISON LILLIAN CUNNINGHAM: So, not very clear at all, but it's a start. This was recorded on an Edison wax cylinder sometime around Harrison's first year in office in 1889. Also in this year, the Coca-Cola Company was created, and the first jukebox went into use in San Francisco. It's the end of the 19th century and technology and industrialization are reshaping America. And amid all this excitement and the many benefits of innovation, there are also new fears and questions emerging among citizens that presidents have to address about who might be left behind in this process and what in our country might be getting destroyed. I'm Lillian Cunningham with The Washington Post, and this is the 23rd episode of “Presidential.” PRESIDENTIAL THEME MUSIC LILLIAN CUNNINGHAM: Benjamin Harrison was born in Indiana in 1833. He was one of 13 children, and he served as president from 1889 until 1893 -- so right smack in the middle of Grover Cleveland's two terms. The history books today barely even mention Benjamin Harrison, though, and when they do, the write-ups are usually not too praising.

  • Tracking the Political Career of David Kilgore Across Pioneer & Civil War Era Indiana
    Tracking the Political Career of David Kilgore Across Pioneer & Civil War Era Indiana Arthur Andrew Olson III, August 17, 2012 great‐great‐great grandson of David Kilgore copyright © 2012 by Arthur Andrew Olson III ABSTRACT For 50 years between 1824 to 1874, David Kilgore and Indiana evolved politically from an unstructured, personality driven pioneer‐era dynamic to a more classically defined political organizational model – both coming of age during the Civil War era. This is the story of an independently minded political figure who spoke directly and often found political sanctuary within short‐lived 3rd parties or factions of mainline parties which better reflected his generally consistent policy views. From his sometimes fringe perspective, Kilgore nudged the evolving two‐party system leadership in Indiana and the nation toward policies and positions which they may not have otherwise considered or addressed.

    Chapter Two “I Used to be a Slave”: Boyhood and Adolescence in Indiana (1816-1830) In 1817, a British traveler described Indiana as “a vast forest, larger than England, just penetrated in places, by the back-wood settlers, who are half hunters, half farmers.”i Late in the previous year, Thomas Lincoln, his wife, and their two children entered the Buck Horn Valley of that state, which had just been admitted to the Union.ii The family’s journey from Kentucky was arduous, relentlessly exposing them to the rigors of camping out on cold winter nights. Upon reaching their new home site, the little i Elias Pym Fordham, Personal Narrative of Travels in Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and of a Residence in the Illinois Territory, 1817-1818 (Cleveland: Augustus H.

  • History of the Know Nothing Party in Indiana by CARL FREMONTBRAND, A
    History of the Know Nothing Party In Indiana By CARL FREMONTBRAND, A. M. (Continued) ORGANIZATION Thanks to the e3orts of that bitter enemy of Know Noth- ingism, the Indianapolis Sentinel, we have a knowledge of the inner workings of the Order in Indiana as it existed in the fall and winter of 1854.1 A description of its machinery at this time, when it was in the height of its career, will not fit it at any other period, for it was continually in evolution. The ritual was adopted at the meeting of the Grand Council at New York City in June, 1854, and revised at the Cincinnati meeting in November. The order was organized on the lodge system in a hierarchy of subordinate, county, state and national councils. Subor- dinate councils could be established only with the sanction of the state council. An authorized agent of the latter could con- fer the first and second degrees upon the applicants for a charter, who must be at least nine in number, and organize them into a council. For the charter the subordinate council paid the sum of two dollars to the state secretary and five dollars €or the entire work of the order. Each council was designated by a name and a number. To become a member of the supreme order of the Star Spangled Banner a person must be twenty-one years of age, a believer in the Supreme Being, a protestant, born of protestant parents within the limits of the jurisdiction of the United States, reared under protestant influence and not united in marriage with a Catholic wife.

  • THE CAMPAIGN of 1888 in INDIANA by R
    THE CAMPAIGN OF 1888 IN INDIANA By R. C. BULET, Graduate Student, Indiana University In few national campaigns has Indiana played a more important and interesting part than in that of 1888. Not only did she fur- nish one of her sons as a candidate, but she was particularly agita- ted over both the national and local issues. Then she was a doubtful State whose vote would greatly influence, perhaps decide, the results of the election. Some even went so far as to say that the party which carried Indiana would secure the presidency and looked upon the State not only as a pivotal but a determining State. On June 9 Senator Voorhees said, “Indiana will cast 550,000 votes at the approaching election, and with that enormous vote there is simply a plurality between the great parties of 6,000 or 7,000, no uajority, a bare plurality. You can imagine, then, what the shock of battle is there. The key to the situation is Indiana.”l The great national issue of 1888 was the tariff. It was made the great staple of party arguments in Indiana, but there were a number of local isues and scandals which gave added life to the contest within the State. There was the question of the Democratic gerrymandering, of the mismanagement of the State charitable in- stitutions, the Sim Coy tally-sheet forgeries, and others. The campaign in the State started early in the year. Indeed, on January 2, a prominent Democratic editor of Indianapolis put forth a plea for close organization within the State and emphasized his belief that without it there could be no victory.
