J.remiah McLain Rusk was a man
with a career long before he entered the
Cabinet of President Benjamin Harri-
SON. His elevation TO the Secretaryship
Of Agriculture, however. served to ma
ticnaliZe his fame and brought to him
that kindly little of Uncle Jerry which
has Glgng to him ever since.
He had been almost everything in Wis
consin that a man coulu aspire to be, and
always with credit to himself.
ne vas porn IN Morgan County, Ohio,
IN 1880, and lived there until he became
a voter. Meanwhile his father HAD died,
and the young man was left with a fam
ny to support. The farm would not do it
crease his small income. His route lay
along, the towpath over which Garfield
travelled, and the two struck up a friend
ship, which never ended.
In 1858 he moved into Wisconsin,
where he prospered as a farmer and won
some popularity as Sheriff of Vernon
county. At the outbreak of the war he
as Major of the Twenty-ffth Regiment
Wisconsin Volunteers.
He served through the war, was fire.
quently rewarded for gallantry. and
rank of hrigadier-generai. The next
year he was elected Bank Controller Of
Wisconsin, retaining that office for four
years, Then he entered Congress and
in pension legislation.
In 1881 President Garfield offered to
send him to Paraguay and Uruguay as
Charge d'Affaires n offered him the
post of public Printer. He declined these
offices, and that Fall the Wisconsin
Republicans made him Governor of h
State. In that office he gave such gen.
eral satisfaction that he was twice re-
elected.
Although his party lodged the liquor
question. he faced 1t manfully, and by
his candor won the Germans to his sup
port, while by his personal example he
placated the Prohibitionists.
He prevented Il railroad riot by send
ing food to the tarvinT laborers instead
of troops, and his 81 similar acts in
spired for him the owe of the working
classes and the confidence of capital.
"tncle Jerry was by no means least
among the Republican Presidential pos
SlbilitieS before the Convention of 1892.
