William L. Fitzgerald and W. J. Andrews letter to Thomas W. Fleming, September 15, 1920
No full textIn this letter dated September 15, 1920, William Fitzgerald of the Baltimore City Council and W. J. Andrews, editor of the Baltimore Herald, write to Thomas W. Fleming, regarding senatorial candidate W. Ashbie Hawkins. The purpose of Hawkins' candidacy, who was running on an independent ticket, was to defeat the unopposed Republican Party nominee O. E. Weller. However, his defeat will limit the Party's leverage in the Senate, which will in turn hinder legislation for the African American community. The letter writers ask Fleming, a Cleveland attorney member of City Council, to write to the Republican presidential nominee, Senator Warren G. Harding, for a letter urging the unification of the Republican Party and stressing the importance of electing a Republican senator from Maryland.
This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I
