Book Description
Excerpt from Minnesota History Bulletin, Vol. 3: 1919-1920 It is for me a pleasure and a real honor to be asked by this society to give the annual address. I appreciate this distinction not alone because as a member of the society and of its executive council I am deeply interested in its work, but more distinctly because it gives me an opportunity to talk to an audience interested in history about a type of service which I conceive will have a unique place in the history of the World War. It gives me an opportunity also to say to you, my friends and neighbors, that while doing a part of this national task I have been able to maintain the same standards that I have set for myself both as a member of the history department of the University of Minnesota and as a member of this society. I am pleased not the less that it gives me an opportunity also to say that I have followed your work even during the busy days in Washington and have seen with pleasure that the Minnesota Historical Society has been among the first to begin gathering the records of the war and that it is making its preparations against that day when the history of Minnesota's part in the great struggle must be written. The thing that has most engaged men's attention and impressed their imaginations in this world-wide conflict has been the massing of armies and the accumulation of war material to an extent hitherto unknown. Their minds have been appalled as they have seen this conflict going on in the air, on the earth, and under the seas, with new instruments and new agencies, military and naval. Most of us, as we have sought to measure the reason for the triumph of the Allies and America, have counted upon these resources and have pointed out that victory came when they far exceeded in quantity those which Germany was able to mobilize or amass.

Book Description
Excerpt from Minnesota History Bulletin, Vol. 4: 1921-1922 Mr. President, Members of the Minnesota Historical Society, Ladies, and Gentlemen: The superintendent, in inviting me to address the society, suggested that I take some theme which would enable me to present the plans we have developed at Wisconsin for doing a certain portion of our work, and to exhibit somewhat the methods which we are following, or propose to follow, in accomplishing our aims. The principal feature of our new activity in the Wisconsin Historical Society is the so-called "Wisconsin Domesday Book." Briefly defined, this is a plan by which it may be possible ultimately to prepare and publish, partly in the form of an atlas and partly in the form of text, the pioneer history of all the townships of Wisconsin. For the older counties we take the year 1860 as the normal year and call our plats "Farms and Farmers of 1860." For the newer counties of northern Wisconsin the year 1890 will be taken, and this will also be the date for the second cross-section study of the older counties, while 1920 will be taken uniformly all over the state for a final survey. The unit in the "Domesday Book" work is the map of the township, or of the town, which usually occupies the area of the surveyor's township. There are several reasons for taking the township as the unit. One is that we have access to the original plats prepared by the surveyors, which are, as a rule, plats of townships six miles square, and contain some indications of the topography, such as the outlines of rivers, lakes, and to some extent marshes and hills, what might be called the hydrographic system.

Book Description
Excerpt from Minnesota History Bulletin, Vol. 2: 1917-1918 The good die not - this heritage they leave, The record of a life well spent. We know, at parting though we grieve, A noble life is man's best monument. Monuments to the dead, although of the most imposing char acter and designed by the most celebrated artists, serve only to identify the person; they do not commemorate his virtues or exemplify his character. Eulogies pronounced by the most finished orators are but the passing breath of the moment and are soon forgotten. But a monument reared in the hearts of the people by unselfish and noble devotion to God, to country, and to fellow men will endure as long as memory Shall last.
