  • American City Flags, Part 1: United States
    342 American City Flags TACOMA, WASHINGTON Population Rank: U.S..... # 99 Washington...... # 3 Proportions: 2:3 (usage) Adopted: 18 June 1991 (official) DESIGN: The field of Tacoma’s flag is a bright medium (royal) blue, with the city seal in blue and gold in the center. On a field of 2 by 3 units, the diameter of the seal is 1.25 units. A gold ring edged in blue encircles the seal. Arched over the top half in blue is SEAL OF THE CITY OF TACOMA, preceded and followed by a small blue-outlined star at the midpoints of the ring. Centered below is 1884, also in blue. Immediately preceding and following the two legends are small three- lobed objects, edged in blue. The center of the seal shows Mount Tacoma (now Mount Rainier) in blue, rising from a horizontal line about one- third of the way from the top of the seal. A gold sun with rays appears over its hoist shoulder. Centered below the mountain is a bridge with Tacoma, Washington 343 four arches over a waterway that widens to fill the bottom of the seal. An old-fashioned train with coal tender and two boxcars is crossing the bridge in the direction of the fly. On the promontories on either side of the bridge are factories with smokestacks in operation. Wharves run along the edge of the banks where the factories meet the water. Two small steamships are moored, one on either side of the waterway. The water and the sky behind the mountain are a lighter shade of blue; the rest is gold with blue shadings.

  • Music and the American Civil War
    “LIBERTY’S GREAT AUXILIARY”: MUSIC AND THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR by CHRISTIAN MCWHIRTER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2009 Copyright Christian McWhirter 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Music was almost omnipresent during the American Civil War. Soldiers, civilians, and slaves listened to and performed popular songs almost constantly. The heightened political and emotional climate of the war created a need for Americans to express themselves in a variety of ways, and music was one of the best. It did not require a high level of literacy and it could be performed in groups to ensure that the ideas embedded in each song immediately reached a large audience. Previous studies of Civil War music have focused on the music itself. Historians and musicologists have examined the types of songs published during the war and considered how they reflected the popular mood of northerners and southerners. This study utilizes the letters, diaries, memoirs, and newspapers of the 1860s to delve deeper and determine what roles music played in Civil War America. This study begins by examining the explosion of professional and amateur music that accompanied the onset of the Civil War. Of the songs produced by this explosion, the most popular and resonant were those that addressed the political causes of the war and were adopted as the rallying cries of northerners and southerners. All classes of Americans used songs in a variety of ways, and this study specifically examines the role of music on the home-front, in the armies, and among African Americans.

  • The Snake River Basin Adjudication the Future of Water in the West
    THE SNAKE RIVER BASIN ADJUDICATION THE FUTURE OF WATER IN THE WEST THE SNAKE RIVER BASIN ADJUDICATION THE FUTURE OF WATER IN THE WEST by Alvin M. Josephy III A Thesis Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Environmental Studies The Evergreen State College June 2006 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Many people contributed to this thesis. All of them deserve mention here. Only a few can be: Adam Sowards, Assistant Professor of History introduced me to the writings of Mark Fiege and Richard White during a summer seminar, and showed me how to think of history in terms of environmental studies. Char Simons gave me the confidence to write more than emails. John Perkins re-introduced me in his patient way to the joys of scholarship. Cheri Lucas Jennings infused my work with enthusiasm and cause. John Peavey lent perspective. Randy Stapilus was actually there, and without his collection of notes and anecdotes there would have been little in the way of actual accounting here. Ellen Bishop took the magnificent cover picture, and lent it to me from her excellent book, In Search of Ancient Oregon. It is of course of Hells Canyon. Gary Snyder, although he doesn’t know it, for obvious reasons. (There’s just a lot of reasons for defending water that don’t fit into a legal brief.) Rebecca Miles, who reminded me at the end of the part the Nez Perce tribe has played in this story for the past ten thousand years. All the good folks in the MES office at the Evergreen State College who have put up with my meanderings for the past two years.

Lists of all officials are as of late 1981 or early 1982. Comprehensive listings of state legislators and other state officials appear in other publications of The Council of State Governments. Concluding each state listing are population figures and other statistics provided by the U.S. Bureau of the Census, based on the 1980 enumerafion. Preceding the state pages are three tables. The first lists the official names of states, the state capitols with zip codes and the telephone numbers of state central switchboards.

  • The Erosion of the Racial Frontier: Settler Colonialism and the History
    THE EROSION OF THE RACIAL FRONTIER: SETTLER COLONIALISM AND THE HISTORY OF BLACK MONTANA, 1880-1930 by Anthony William Wood A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History MONTANA STATE UNIVERSITY Bozeman, Montana April 2018 ©COPYRIGHT by Anthony William Wood 2018 All Rights Reserved ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the history faculty at Carroll College and Dr. Swarthout who pushed history majors such as myself to work as interns with the Montana State Historic Preservation Office in Helena, Montana. It was at SHPO that I was so fortunate to work for Kate Hampton, who had already worked tirelessly keeping the Montana’s African American Heritage Places Project alive for over a decade, and who continued to lead and guide me while I researched and wrote for the project for three years. Classes I took at MSU, especially Dr. Mark Fiege’s seminar on the American West, offered strikingly new approaches that opened up different methods as well as mountains of scholarship that would profoundly inform how I thought about race and the American West. I am further indebted to my wonderful committee members, Drs. Mary Murphey, Amanda Hendrix- Komoto, Billy Smith, and my chair, Mark Fiege for all their time spent talking with me about sections of my thesis, different approaches I might try, or even just listening as I tried to organize my ideas. I am also thankful and sorry to my office-mates Amanda Hardin and Jen Dunn who were unlucky enough to work within ear-shot.

  • Sleeping Beauty
    The Tale Of The Sleeping Beauty in thirteen chapters as re-told from The Brothers Grimm by Kate Bornstein for Tania and Rachel I. The mayor of Seattle sighed deeply and looked out over her lovely city. It was a beautiful day, the mountains were out. “Good morning, old girl,” the mayor whispered. She was talking to Mount Rainier. “Got a baby for me yet?” The mayor sensed the quivering of her own lower lip. People always told her she had a pouty lower lip. Well she did, and she knew it. All that does, she thought to herself, is it makes you feel your lip more when it’s quivering. But those darned tears were springing up in the corners of her eyes. And suddenly, there came a profoundly deep rumbling voice, a voice as deep as the earth herself. “Well baby girl,” the deep voice said teasingly, “today could be your lucky day.” The Mayor’s eyes flew open in astonishment. She could feel the vibration of that powerful voice—down to the soles of her awfully cute pumps. The Mountain had never talked back before! For the last thirty years, each and every day the Mountain came out of her cloudy back room, the Mayor had posed the same question. “Got a baby for me yet?” Of course, it was a silly thing to do—ask a mountain if two lesbians could have a baby together. What nonsense! But the Mayor had always wished deep in her heart that she could bear her lover’s child… her lover with the sweetest pussy in the Pacific Northwest.

  • The A-MAZE-Ing State Game
    The A-MAZE-ing State Game A Quilt, Table Cloth, or Play Rug (for a Children’s Game Room or Classroom) Project Designer: Flora and Henry Joy (www.storytellingworld.com) Information sources: A vast variety of Internet sites and reference materials Assistants: Sharon Crowe, Marc Montgomery, Meg Foster, and Nancy Kavanaugh The information on the following pages provides details regarding how to get and use “The A-MAZE-ing State Game” for your home, classroom, or other educational or fun setting. To GET the game, do the following: --Print Section 1 (Page 3) of this packet and follow the steps in ordering the fabric for this project. OR hand that sheet to someone who truly wishes to assist you in your endeavors to help children with their academic skills, and ask that person if he/she would order this panel of fabric and “donate” it to your classroom/home. --After you have received the fabric, print Section 2 (page 4) and make the game. If you can’t sew (only the very basic sewing skills are needed), give the fabric (with the printed page) to someone who CAN SEW, and ask him/her to consider making the quilt for your cause. If THAT person can’t do so, continue until you have found someone who WILL. If all else fails, go to your local quilt shop and inquire about hiring someone to put this project together. [This can be made QUICKLY, depending upon the amount of embellishment (if any) that is chosen.] Anyone who can stitch a straight seam (and who has a sewing machine) can stitch together this quilt.
