Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Iowa Journal of History and Politics, 1924, Vol. 11 From the beginning of the American government Congress has been compelled to deal with at least five distinct groups of foreign land claims, beginning with those in the Old Northwest and followed by those in the Territory South of the Ohio, the Louisiana Purchase, Florida, and the territory acquired from Mexico. In the thirty-four years of Spanish domination in Louisiana thousands of land grants were made, and migration and settlement were stimulated. With the purchase of the territory in 1803 the United States fell heir to the confusion of the Spanish grants - a condition which required more than a half century of legislation and administration and a vast amount of litigation. The Spanish Land Policy The "Recopilacion de las Leyes de los Reynos de las Indias" seems to be among the first documents relating to the royal trans-Atlantic domain of Spain. This set of ordinances issued by King Carlos II on May 18,1682, contains elaborate provisions relating to the disposal of the public domain. By the royal regulation of 1754 the whole power of originating and confirming grants was transferred to the officers of the colonies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Township Government: In Iowa To discover the sources of the laws under which the township in Iowa was organized, to trace the changes in these township laws, to sketch the scope and character of township administration from its inception down to the present time, and to indicate some of the conceptions concerning the functions of the township that appear to have prevailed in Iowa, constitute the aim of the pages that follow. In order to accomplish the objects of this research reference has necessarily been made to the original jurisdictions in which the township was first recognized as well as to those having an immediate connection with Iowa. Some reference has also 'been made to other jurisdictions in which a modified form of township organization has appeared. A survey of the laws from the establishment of the Territory of the Northwest in 1787 to the present time, in so far as they appear to relate directly to the history of local government in Iowa, has been undertaken; and incidentally the various types of township organization have been mentioned.

Download or read book The Making of Iowa Classic Reprint written by Henry Sabin and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Making of Iowa My object in writing this book, "The Making of Iowa," is not to give a history of the State, but only a narration calculated to keep alive the memory of those pioneers whose achievements and wisdom laid the foundation for our institutions. There is great danger that the stirring events of later years will obscure if not obliterate the record which these hardy men made under our Territorial government and in the formative years of our Statehood. An account of "The Making of Iowa," in the early stages of her growth and development will interest the children and induce them to read history, both for the pleasure it will give them and the information it will impart. The record has been followed in regular order through the earliest days to the times preceding the Civil War. The history of that eventful period is still fresh in the public mind. Here I have dealt with the past and with the deeds of men who served the State well in their day and have long since passed to their reward. Besides, the history of Iowa is rich in Indian names. Black Hawk, Keokuk, Mahaska and Wapello still live in the names of Iowa counties and towns. The land for which these brave chiefs contended is ours to-day, but they had many noble traits and their memory is part of the inheritance of the State.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the People of Iowa Of course no apology is necessary for writing A History of the People of Iowa, and so none will be offered. The author believes his work is not a dupli cation of any other. Not too much, but too little has been written about Iowa. The people of this state have been neglectful of their own history. Even in their schools they have taught the history of every land except their own. On one occasion the author interrogated four college girls, senior class students in a university, and was surprised to find that not one of them had a distinct idea of who James W. Grimes was. They had heard of Samuel J. Kirkwood, largely through the fact that Mrs. Jane Kirkwood, the widow of the war governor, was still living in Iowa City. They knew much about the Sabine women, but very little about their own great-grandmothers who had crossed the Mississippi in 1833, and in the years following. They knew what Curtius did in the Roman Forum, but they were wholly ignorant about the Iowa hero who held a fort while General Sherman signalled I am coming. And yet the lessons derived from human experience might have been garnered from Iowa history as well as from Roman.

Download or read book History and Government of Iowa Classic Reprint written by Charles H. Meyerholz and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Government of Iowa In the preparation of this book the author makes no extensive claim to originality. The history and government of Iowa have been thoroughly investigated and quite thoroughly written up during the past ten years. Precision of statement and logic in arrangement, rather than the display of new material, has been the aim. The greatest problem in writing a text-book on local government is the attractive presentation of the funda mental facts without including too much that is mutable. With each session of the General Assembly there is a change in many of the small details of state government. Some of these changes, although small, are important, others have little effect and are of little value to the student of Iowa civics. It has been the author's aim to emphasize those features of local and state government which are most permanent and essential.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Constitutions of Iowa To recur occasionally to the history and ideals of our pioneer forefathers will give us a more generous appreciation of the worth of our Commonwealth and a firmer faith in our own provincial character.

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 702 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Iowa Journal of History and Politics, Vol. 6 It had been hoped that the past services of George W. J ones would entitle him to a unanimous election. But a few Whigs were willing to administer a measure of partisan politics to the infant Territory. In the campaign lasting hardly a month the past records and capabilities of J ones and Meeker were paraded for comparison. Personal and local considerations, however, such as the location of county seats, internal improvements, and a discussion of the vari ous claims of Burlington, Belmont, Du Buque, and Madison for the capital of the Territory constitute the principal record of the first political activity in Iowa. The popularity of Col. G. W. J ones was general through out the Territory. It was he whose efforts had secured the passage of the Act of April 20, 1836, establishing the original Territory of Wisconsin, and the voters generally believed that his election was necessary to secure the best interests of the young Territory in matters of National legislation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Civil Government of Iowa: For the Use of Normal and Public Schools, Teachers Institutes, and Private Instruction In 1804, the Louisiana Purchase was divided by the thirty-third parallel of north latitude, the southern part to be known as the territory of Orleans, the north ern part, as the district of Louisiana. The district of Louisiana, embracing the present States of Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa and Minnesota, and the unexplored regions westward to the Rocky Mountains, was attached to Indiana, with William Henry Harrison for first gov ernor. Eight years later, Iowa was organized as a part of the territory of Missouri. In 1821, when Missouri was admitted into the Union as a state, Iowa was left out in the cold, politically, and no provision was made for the remainder of the Louisiana Purchase until 1834, when it became a part of the territory of Michigan. This connection lasted but a short time, however, for two years later, Iowa became a part of the territory of Wisconsin, then formed. In 1838, that part of the territory of Wisconsin lying west of the Mississippi was organized as the territory of Iowa, and Robert Lucas, of Ohio, was appointed first governor. Under his direction, the first census was taken, members of the legislature were chosen, and civil government in Iowa was begun. The act of congress that provided for the organization of this territory gave the governor full power to veto any and all acts of the legislature.
