Book Description
Excerpt from Speech of Mr. Andrew Ewing, of Tennessee, on the Admission of California: Delivered in the House of Representatives, April 18, 1850 It is true, as stated by the gentleman from New York, (mr. Duee, ) that we might pass a bill during the present session of Congress authorizing the formation of State governments for these new Territories, and their admission into the. Union so soon as they should have completed the preparatory requisites for such an ih corporation. But, sir, this proceeding would require at least two years for its final completion, during all which time they would be helpless and unprotected; and who can say that even then they would have the requisite population for an admission, or that their local or pecuniary Situation would enable them to assemble at any convenient place for legislation, or bear the heavy expen ses incident to all State governments?

Hoosiers and the American Story
Author: Madison, James H.Publisher: Indiana Historical Society
ISBN: 0871953633
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.
