Abstract:

Papers of a Progressive who served in the Wisconsin Senate, 1922-1946. Available on microfilm are personal and legislative correspondence and biographical clippings. The personal letters include numerous exchanges with his wife prior to their marriage and letters to and from his son during the 1930's and 1940's about legislative matters. The legislative correspondence includes many letters from constituents, but there are also letters from prominent correspondents such as Emil Baensch, John J. Blaine, Gerald J. Boileau, William J. Campbell, R. Ryan Duffy, James A. Farley, Bernard J. Gehrmann, Frank N. Graass, William D. Hoard, Merlin Hull, Jens Jensen, Thomas F. Konop, Robert M. La Follette, Jr., Aldo Leopold, Orland S. Loomis, George C. Sellery, and Edwin Witte. Unfilmed materials include speeches and writings; fragmentary legislative files on highways, education, agriculture, and oleomargarine; campaign memorabilia; and subject files on his work as a gauger for the Internal Revenue Service and on the legal education of his son at the University of Wisconsin.
