william clark was a soldier by training and he was brought to the expedition as the sort of military backbone of the lewis and clark expedition and when he and mary weather lewis get back after the expedition is over in 1806, charles wilson peal exhibits many of the specimens that the lewis and clark expeditions brought back. there were also native american artifacts and a very important opportunity for people who went to the philadelphia museum, charles wilson peal's museum to see indian artifacts for the very first time. so the portrait here of william clark, he looks very much the gentleman with his high collar and his lacy jabot, this portion of his shirt and you can see how weathered his face is from the nose and cheeks and chin and his forehead is almost white because he's always wearing a hat to protect it from the sun. charles wilson peal who didn't travel extensively, not as extensively as lewis and clark, still enjoyed talking to lewis and clark and other explorers about their adventures and that must have been the subject matter when william clark's portrait was being paint

in new york that the united states senate refused to seat william clark for six months as a huge battle over whether he would even be allowed to have a seat because he had bought it through bribery and that kicked us right into the into the seventeenth amendment so why would republicans want to take us back to those days i don't get it it's the good old days. make america great again you know much of you know republican ideas no this is new that you said before you lou this is happening before the judge was john birch society and some of it was trying to fight for this thing yeah but i do think there is reason to look at the seventy of them in terms of how it's currently can screw i think undemocratic to have a senator who represents millions of people who did the same vote as a senator who represent one hundred thousand people so i think this from discussion there but to see this going down the with they have put it so that the state legislature the republican controlled state legislators i mean it's all about them good old boys trying to circle the wagons to keep our this is a consist

aother important figure is slave of william clark who accompanied the party over the pacific ocean and that. he is not well accounted for in the original journals or any of the other contemporary accounts of the expedition, but we are working to see a better expedition of him. he really, unlike sacagawea, begin to capture the imagination of modern scholars and fiction writers. more recently, a lot more has been done. his position on the expedition was an unusual one. he had a lot of freedom as he came with the expedition west, including, as that mentioned earlier, the right to vote on where the camp made winter accommodations and to carry a gun. when they got back to the eastm= went -- when they got back to the east, when other members of the party were awarded land to think them for their efforts, it york, as a slave was not given a reward. at that time, once the media back he asked for freedom but was not granted his freedom. he continued his slavery. in the 19th century, like sacagawea he is -- for his unusual status and the west for his african-american status. he was made into a c

at that time once they made it back he asked for his freedom from william clark, but was not granted his freedom, so continued in slavery. in the 19th century sacajawea he was-- sort of for his unusual status in the american west of the american. unlike sacajawea he was made into a clownish character who might have softened relations with the native americans. he may not have interacted with a person of his race before, so this myth grew around him, but lost some traction in later retelling of the story and is only beginning to emerge again with sort of enthusiasm from the academic community. this is one of our many collections that helped us explore how history is received, so not only do we have the books we talked about at the beginning that give us a sense of a motive and intellectual grounding of the expedition, but they also let us see how historians have related with that event from the very earliest moments after lewis and clark returned to the present moment and we see iterations of accounts of the expedition, which really is much as a complex on what lewis and clark did ref

he asked fore back his freedom from william clark but was not granted his freedom. he wouldth century apologize, to some extent, for his unusual status in the american west as an african-american. he was made into a clownish character who might have softened relations with the native americans. so this myth grew around him but lost some traction later in the story and was only beginning to emerge again with enthusiasm from the academic community. this is one of our many collections that helps us explore how history is received. at only do we have the books the beginning that give us a sense of the motives and intellectual grounding of the expedition, but they also let us see how historians have related from variousnt moments after lewis and clarke returned to the present moment. we see iterations of the account of the expedition which reflected on their own moment in time and that moments relationship with the past. and let us in turkey our own preconceptions and prejudices and intentions when we tell a story from the past. that is what is really exciting about havi

senator william clark took office in washington to have investigations open immediately. after hearing testimony from state legislators and even montana supreme court justices, clark's agents attempted to bribe the senate investigations committee declared clark's election void. in an amazing maneuver clark resigned and his allies in montana contrived to get the governor out of the state making the lieutenant governor the acting governor, at which point the lieutenant governor appointed clark to silva now -- what clark had been denied. this was the corruption going on in the gilded age. buying politics, shaping political outcomes and the populist and progressives were worried this was going to ruin the constitutional system, the end of the republic. they came up with the most creative solutions. on the economic side the invented antitrust laws, consolidations of corporate power. a constitutional amendment to create an in -- and income tax in order to prevent economic power from influencing politics, campaign-finance reforms and passed the constitutional amendment from the d
