Fortunately, my predecessor, Secretary Don Hodel, had come to realize that many new employees-I'm not sure he had Secretaries in mind-could profit from a good orientation to the Department and its many responsibilities. Secretary Hodel had commissioned the completion of a Department history, begun some 15 years earlier, so that newcomers and others interested in the Department could better understand what it is and how it got that way. This slim volume is the result.

    TRIUMPH OF THE NEW SOUTH: INDEPENDENT MOVEMENTS IN POST-RECONSTRUCTION POLITICS Volume II Brooks Miles Barnes Onancock, Virginia B.A., University of Virginia, 1972 M.A., University of Virginia, 1973 A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Corcoran Department of History University of Virginia May, 1991 MISSISSIPPI The final years of Reconstruction in Mississippi saw both Republicans and Democrats abandon their efforts to attract the politically undecided. Instead, they began to cultivate the party faithful--the Republicans the black majority, the Democrats the white minority. Burdened by the heavy taxes levied by the Radical regime and disgusted by its incompetence and corruption, the Democrats resolved in 1875 to redeem the state by fair means or foul. They drew the color line, imposed strict discipline in their ranks, and used persuasion, intimidation, and violence to cow Republicans both black and white. l l William C.

    Vice Presidents of the United States Adlai E. Stevenson (1893-1897) Citation: Mark O. Hatfield, with the Senate Historical Office. Vice Presidents of the United States, 1789-1993 (Washington: U.S. Government Printing Office, 1997), pp. 279-284. Introduction by Mark O. Hatfield. "Has Mr. Cleveland yet consulted you to that extent?" Vice President Stevenson was once asked. "Not yet," he replied. "But, there are still a few weeks of my term remaining." In February 1900, the Chicago American ran a photograph of former Vice President Adlai Stevenson holding his new grandson, Adlai Ewing Stevenson II. That year the grandfather was again nominated to run for vice president on the Democratic ticket. A half century later, the grandson would run twice as the Democratic nominee for president and gain even greater national and international prominence. Yet it was the grandfather who came closest to becoming president of the United States—when President Grover Cleveland underwent critical surgery.1 Youth The Stevenson family were Presbyterians from Northern Ireland who migrated first to Pennsylvania and then to North Carolina and Kentucky. Adlai E. Stevenson, son of John Turner Stevenson and Eliza Ewing Stevenson, was born on the family farm in Christian County, Kentucky, on October 23, 1835. He attended the common school in Blue Water, Kentucky, presided over by a "dreaded schoolmaster," Mr. Caskie. Years later, when as vice- presidential candidate Stevenson was about to speak at a barbecue in Kentucky, the elderly schoolmaster approached the platform and inquired, "Adlai, I came twenty miles to hear you speak; don't you remember me?" Stevenson instantly replied, "Yes, Mr.
