Abstract:

Papers of Davidson of Princeton and Oshkosh, Wisconsin, a teacher, lawyer, politician, and Congressman (1897-1913), consisting almost entirely of correspondence, 1897-1900, from his constituents, local Republican leaders in the Sixth Congressional district, and federal government officials. Most of the letters concern patronage, particularly appointments for census enumerations for the 1900 Census, postmasters, and military and naval academy appointments.
