1841643Washington D.C. 1841. 4to. 253 x 203 mm. 10 x 8 inches. 2 pp. folded sheet. Watermarked. Docketed. Fine legible hand. Contemporary copy.  On March 20 1841 during the administration of President William H. Harrison the following circular designed to limit political activity of public servants was issued by the Hon. Daniel Webster Secretary of State: "The President is of opinion that it is a great abuse to bring the patronage of the General Government into conflict with the freedom of elections and that this abuse ought to be corrected wherever it may have been permitted to exist and to be prevented for the future. "He therefore directs that information be given to all officers and agents in your Department of the public service that partisan interference in popular elections whether of State officers or officers of this Government and for whomsoever or against whomsoever it may be exercised or the payment of any contribution or assessment on salaries or official compensation for party-election purposes will be regarded by him as cause of removal. "It is not intended that any officer shall be restrained in the free and proper expression and maintenance of his opinions respecting public men or public measures or in the exercise to the fullest degree of the constitutional right of suffrage. But persons employed under the Government and paid for their services out of the Public Treasury are not expected to take an active or officious part in attempts to influence the minds or votes of others such conduct being deemed inconsistent with the spirit of the Constitution and the duties of public agents acting under it; and the President is resolved so far as depends upon him that while the exercise of the elective franchise by the people shall be free from undue influence of official station and authority opinion shall also be free among the officers and agents of the Government." John Bell 1796 -1869 to whom this circular was addressed was one of Tennessee's most prominent antebellum politicians. He served in the House of Representatives the Senate and was Speaker of the House for the 23rd Congress. He briefly served as Secretary of War during the administration of William Henry Harrison 1841. Docketed on p. 4 in ink by Bell "J.B." indicating this was referred to the different bureaus of the War Department dated in ink at the War Dept. promptly on March 23rd. There were many later challenges and revisions to the law in the circular. The Hatch Act of 1939 officially An Act to Prevent Pernicious Political Activities prohibited employees in the executive branch of the federal government except the president vice-president and certain designated high-level officials of that branch from engaging in some forms of political activity. The law was named for Senator Carl Hatch of New Mexico. unknown books

21379Very good. Fifteen black and white photographs of which thirteen measure 4 7/8" x 3 ¾"; the other two measure 4" x 6". Four of the smaller size images have typed descriptions attached to them. Bernard R. Hubbard was a Jesuit priest explorer photographer and lecturer who did much to familiarize Americans with the beauty of the Alaska and the lives of the region's native peoples. Born in San Francisco in 1888 Hubbard studied at several West Coast colleges and universities before heading to Austria where he was ordained as a priest and also became enamored of the mountains. After seeing him head off on climbing expeditions in every spare moment his fellow theology students dubbed him "Der Gletscher Pfaffer" The Glacier Priest a sobriquet he would adopt proudly for the rest of his days. Though his "day job" was head of the Department of Geology at Santa Clara University for nearly 30 years Hubbard conducted annual summer expeditions to Alaska and the Arctic. He funded this work and also supported Catholic missions in Alaska by touring the country upon his return delivering lectures--illustrated with photographs and film he shot himself--to large and enthusiastic audiences. Although his expeditions had scientific and anthropologic goals scholars have generally pronounced them to be of little scientific consequence. Nonetheless Hubbard had charm showmanship and photographic talent on his side. According to historian Mary Jane Miller Screening Culture p. 115 "Hubbard became a household name after his experiences and photographs were published in the Saturday Evening Post in 1932. By 1937 he was the highest paid lecturer in the United States." The photos colelcted here show Father Hubbard posed with his ice axe examining pictographs hiking with companions over glaciers and snow-covered terrain posing with totem poles "found some distance back from the coast in south-east Alaska." Two images do not include people but are beautiful shots of an unidentified Alaskan glacier and icefield. unknown books
