Book excerpt: Excerpt from Franklin County at the Beginning of the Twentieth Century: Historical Record of Its Development, Resources, Industries, Institutions, and Inhabitants; With Illustrations of Public Institutions, Portraits of Pioneers, and Well-Known People of to-Day During all the early years of the settlement, varied with occasional pleasures and excitements, the great work of increasing the tillable ground went slowly on. Farm implements and tools were scarce, but the soil, that had long held in reserve the accumulated richness of centuries, produced splendid crops, handsomely rewarding the pioneer's labor. Only the com monest goods were brought into the country, being oated down the Ohio to the mouth of the Scioto, and these sold at extortionate rates. Tea was worth two or three dollars a pound long after the Scioto Valley had been settled as far as Columbus coffee sold for from 75 cents to one dollar a pound salt, five to six dollars a bushel of 5-0 pounds, and the cheapest kinds of calico brought one dollar a yard.

Download or read book President McKinley War and Empire written by Richard F. Hamilton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "progressive" reading of history focuses on two major antecedents for the origins of the United States' 1898 war with Spain: the 1896 presidential election and the Hearst-Pulitzer press war that, reportedly, generated an irresistible clamor from an "aroused public." Underlying those narratives are two very different theoretical frameworks: a class-dominance view and that of the mass society. Volume 1 of President McKinley, War and Empire assesses the adequacy of those readings.In the 1896 election the Republicans, led by William McKinley, were challenged by William Jennings Bryan, a radical and an inflationist, who had defeated the conservative leaders of the Democratic Party. The Bryanites portrayed the 1896 election as a struggle between "Wall Street" and "the people." McKinley was portrayed as a docile, pliable figure whose campaign was directed by an adept Ohio business magnate, Mark Hanna. The McKinley victory meant that "big business" was now "in control."The Cuban insurgency, begun in 1895, gained attention and support from the American newspapers. This began with a circulation war in New York City, with Hearst and Pulitzer publishing "sensational" reports about the struggle in Cuba. The resulting public clamor, it is said, overwhelmed the members of the legislative and executive branches. McKinley and his advisors fended off those demands as best they could but, following the sinking of the Maine, he conceded and asked Congress to authorize intervention.This work provides an original assessment of those long-standing claims, the basic elements of the progressive history. It reviews McKinley's biography, principally the events leading up to his election victory, including discussion of Hanna's role. It then examines the events leading up to the war. Studies of press content are reviewed and new material is introduced. The work also argues that two other factors were decisive: the efforts of an adept Cuban pressure group and partisa

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every city's history has its dark underbelly of crime. Columbus is no exception. From the turn of the century to the dawn of World War I, scandals involving an opium den and a sadistic murderer rocked a respectable downtown community. Around the same time, a cop killer masterminded a plot to free himself from the Franklin County Jail by having his gang attempt to blow the place up with nitroglycerin. In 1946, dead bodies kept popping up after a prim young teacher disappeared from a quiet Grandview Heights neighborhood. Two years later, a middle-aged housewife was killed with a butcher knife the same day that a tattooed mystery woman was found knifed to death in a downtown hotel. Join Nellie Kampmann as she explores the back alleys of Arch City history.
