[52] This was John Braun’s. Best and Company had the largest investment among the German brewers, $7400, but their output was only $11,250. Other German brewers were Weizt, Englehardt, Stolz and Schuder, H. Nunnemacher, and H. Beverung. [53] If our count is correct, the 1850 census lists as “clerks” fifty-one Germans. Doubtless many of these were serving in American stores. [54] Or thirty-six, if we omit the teachers, some of whom at least were probably not liberally educated. [55] The Lutherans included a Fr. Lachner, C. Eisenmeyer, and Ludwig Dulitz; the Evangelical preacher was Christian Holl, and the Methodist, Christian Barth. [56] The Western Medical Society of Wisconsin, representing the counties of Grant, Iowa, and Lafayette, reported in December, 1850, that out of sixty persons engaged in the practice of medicine in that area, only twelve were entitled to be called “doctor.” _Daily Free Democrat_, January 8, 1850.

[58] The remaining cases of marriages between Germans and Americans were briefly as follows: A whitewasher, born in Pennsylvania, was married to a German woman; tailor, born “in U. S.,” married to a German; a weaver, born in Germany, married to a woman born in Pennsylvania; a laborer, born in Ohio, married to a German woman; a stage driver, born in Ohio, married to a German woman; a minister (M. E.), native of Hanover, married to a woman born in Illinois. [59] _Daily Wisconsin Banner_, August 1, 1850 (translation). [60] _Wisconsin Banner_, August 29, 1846. [61] _Wis. Hist.

[63] “Events teach us,” said the _Banner und Volksfreund_, October 15, 1855 (in the thick of the bitter Barstow-Bashford campaign), “that the Shanghais (Republicans) despite their prating of antislavery, are further removed from actual human freedom than the slaveholders themselves. The occurrences of the past year, during which the Shanghais have been dominant in various state legislatures, have shown us that this party is the incubator of the temperance law.” This line was followed vigorously through the campaign. [64] Note, for example, the Louisville, Kentucky, riots in which the Germans were driven from the city. The Wisconsin Democracy, in August, 1855, made that the excuse for a resolution refusing seats in the convention to men of Know-Nothing proclivities. See _Argus and Democrat_ (Madison), August 29, 1855. [65] See the _Milwaukee American_, 1855-1856, which was the party organ. [66] Those belonging to the Turner Society are generally classified as “free thinkers.” The _Turner Zeitung_, national organ of the Society in 1855, was Republican in its politics, which probably influenced the result in Wisconsin. [67] The Mayberry lynching. The lynchers were loggers from an up-river camp belonging to the murdered man. [68] See his letter, MS, to Lyman Draper, August 28, 1855.
