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 and Civil Government of Iowa: And the Government of the United States Our book has grown out of the conviction that his tory and civics are correlative studies that the story of civic development constitutes civil history; and that the civil government of to-day is most interesting and most profitable when viewed in the light of those events by which the organization of the State is being moulded and perfected. While we have given considerable space to the his tory of Iowa, we have confined ourselves strictly to civil history, and have tried, by numerous cross references, to emphasize the fact that present civic conditions are the result of past experiences and not infrequently of past prejudices.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of Iowa In the preparation of this book it has not been the author's purpose to write an exhaustive treatise on the Constitutional Law of Iowa. On the contrary, he has aimed in these pages to give a narrative and descriptive account of the government of Iowa, divorced as far as possible from legal verbiage and prosaic references to articles, titles, chapters, sections, and paragraphs of Constitution, Code, and Statutes. For the convenience of students and teachers who desire the exact wording of the State Constitution, the text of that instrument has been added in an Appendix. The tendency, in recent years, of constitution makers to limit the powers of the legislature by incorporating numerous and often non-essential subjects in the Constitution has made many of our State Constitutions lengthy documents. Sometimes we find jumbled up with the outline of the framework of the government subjects which have no place in a written Constitution. Where such provisions occur in the Constitution of Iowa, they have frequently been passed over by the author as unimportant in the study of Iowa government. Moreover, our State Constitution is not altogether systematic in its arrangement. Sometimes the same subject is referred to in several places.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Rule in Iowa IN these days there is much said and written concerning home rule in local government. And yet, home rule is not a new idea in America a proposed experiment in government. On the contrary, home rule has long been a cherished political heritage. But how many people to day have a clear notion of what home rule means! What is home rule in Iowa? To answer this question is the purpose of the pages that follow. Neither the time nor the means have been available for an exhaustive study of all of the phases of home rule, either in this State or in the other Common wealths of the Union. An attempt has been made, how ever, to trace briefly the development of home rule as a factor in local government, to indicate the present posi tion of the local areas in Iowa and the resulting evils of special legislation, to point out the necessity and effects of classification, to show the impracticability of rigid uni formity in the government of local areas, to present the home rule charter system in the light of its successes and shortcomings, and to suggest a general division between State and local functions. The real scope and limitations of the paper can best be indicated by pointing out the actual studies made by the writer in its preparation.

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 duplication 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. The neglect is not unusual. Men are apt to be indifferent to their own historic surroundings. Nor has the material of Iowa history been accessible to the many. Gue's and Brigham's excellent histories are too voluminous. They have become books of reference for students of men and events. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

No text-book can be made which can serve as a substitute for this direct observation and study. Wise teachers will illustrate the text by exam ples and incidents drawn from actual observations. They will encourage their pupils to observe for themselves the business and the methods of local governments about them.
