  • Brief Biography of Robert M. La Follette | Lesson Plan Support

    Brief Biography of Robert M. La Follette | Lesson Plan Support

    Few figures have had as profound an impact on the state as Robert La Follette. As governor and United States Senator, La Follette earned the nickname “Fighting Bob” by his continual and vigorous support for political reform. As a young man just out of college, La Follette was a rising star in the Republican party in the 1880s—he was elected Dane County district attorney in 1880 and 1882, and in 1884, he was elected to the House of Representatives. During his tenure as Representative, La Follette, was a fairly conventional Republican: he supported a high tariff, denounced Democrats as the party of rebellion, and supported American intervention abroad. He was, however, something of a maverick; when he was convinced he was right, he challenged those in authority and stubbornly refused to give in. He was also an astonishing orator, captivating large audiences for hours full of vivid images. In 1890, La Follette lost his reelection bid as the Democrats captured most of the state offices. Shortly after he returned to his law practice in Madison, former Senator Philetus Sawyer arranged a meeting with him in Milwaukee. At that meeting, Sawyer offered La Follette a bribe if he would influence a court case Sawyer was involved in that was being tried under Robert Siebecker, La Follette’s brother-in-law. Enraged, La Follette refused, and as rumors of the confrontation leaked out, La Follette became persona-non-grata in the Republican party. He began a crusade against corruption and boss rule in the party and drew around him like-minded young reformers—who became known as “progressives”—who resented the domination of Wisconsin by conservative politicians supported by large business interests.

LSU Libraries’ Special Collections houses items in several collections pertaining directly, and indirectly, to Abraham Lincoln. The sources listed in this column represent a sampling of the library’s holdings. Researchers can find a complete listing of materials – both manuscript items and publications – by accessing the online catalog at www.lib.lsu.edu using the keywords “Abraham Lincoln.” Manuscripts Among the manuscript collections is a handwritten copy of President Lincoln’s letter of August 5, 1863, to General Nathaniel P. Banks regarding military and political activities in Louisiana. Addressed to Benjamin F. Flanders by Lincoln, the library’s copy is part of the Benjamin F. Flanders Papers, Mss. 671, Louisiana and Lower Mississippi Valley Collections (LLVMVC). In early 1863 Flanders served as congressman for the First Congressional District of Louisiana. General Philip Sheridan appointed him governor of Louisiana in 1867; he later held the office of mayor of New Orleans, among other political positions.

Doctor of Philosophy (History), May, 1980, 447 pp., 6 tables, 1 map, bibliography, 194 titles. The political career of Stephen Dorsey provides a focus for much of the Gilded Age. Dorsey was involved in many significant events of the period. He was a carpetbagger during Reconstruction and played a major role in the Compromise of 1877. He was a leader of the Stalwart wing of the Republican party, and he managed Garfield's 1880 presidential campaign. The Star Route Frauds was one of the greatest scandals of a scandal-ridden era, and Dorsey was a central figure in these frauds. Dorsey tried to revive his political career in New Mexico after his acquittal in the Star Route Frauds, but his reputation never recovered from the notoriety he received at the hands of the star route prosecutors. Like many of his contemporaries in Gilded Age politics, Dorsey left no personal papers which might have assisted a biographer. Sources for this study included manuscripts in the Library of Congress and the New Mexico State Records Center and Archives in Santa Fe; this study also made use of newspapers, records in the National Archives, congressional investigations of Dorsey printed in the reports and documents of the House and Senate, and the transcripts of the star route trials.
