1861ref. 39392Springfield: Charles H. Lanphier 1861. 4 pp. Folio. 16-1/4" x 23-1/2.". Lightly chipped blank inner edge. Each page printed in six columns each separated by a rule. Very Good. The Register no friend of Abraham Lincoln was a Democratic Paper supporting the Crittenden Compromise. Reporting on State and National issues the Register notes "The Crittenden Resolutions have strong friends but the ultra republicans will not take them." Lincoln had insisted that his allies hold firm against Crittenden's Compromise. The Register rebukes Lincoln for his famous declaration that "the Union could not endure permanently part slave and part free." Developments in the fracturing Union are reported. Lincoln had been elected President nearly three months before the appearance of this issue. His inauguration would occur five weeks later. Paid advertisers include John McClernand and John Stuart who advertise their legal services in the first column of page 1. The large number and variety of advertisements for an array of medical complaints about four columns are surprising- - and a little disturbing. This issue also reports an incident involving the John Brownites at Boston who were snubbed by British Lord Brougham after inviting him to attend a convention discussing the abolition of slavery.

1910ref. 38289San Francisco: Phillips & Van Orden Co. 1910. Original green title wrappers. 10 261 3 blanks xxxv 1 blank pp as issued. Text on glossy paper. Mild wrapper wear Near Fine. Ruef was indicted and convicted of offering a bribe to a San Francisco Supervisor in order to grant the United Railroads of San Francisco a franchise for building an electric trolley system in the City. This is his brief on appeal. A hard-fought contentious case OCLC records facsimiles only of this document and a few originals of several other printed arguments and appeals "Abraham Ruef born to Jewish merchants in San Francisco in 1864 became one of the most compelling and controversial figures in the history of politics in the city as the infamous founder and boss of the Union Labor Party for the Eugene Schmitz mayoral administration from 1902-1906 before his conviction on charges of bribery and extortion and sentencing to the maximum penalty of fourteen years in jail albeit he served five before he could arrange for his release. While Ruef admittedly engineered the backdoor graft and scheming that helped establish the funds and almost total power the Union Labor Party and its administration exerted in San Francisco politics in the early twentieth century he was ultimately the only man convicted for any criminal wrongdoing. The other politicians and prominent businessmen involved including Schmitz himself either successfully won their appeals or otherwise avoided conviction altogether."
