Wisconsin One third German.

Wisconsin more than the average
American state is interested in the
giant war that is being fought in
Europe More than a third of her
population is either German or of
German extraction, and thousands
of Wisconsin families are represent
ed by relatives or friends in the
fighting army of the Kaiser. The
story of how Wisconsin received
her German population is one of
much interest. AS early as 1880
when the reaction against the lib
eral movement of 1880 had set in
throughout Europe, disappointed
German reformers were turning
their steps towards newly opened
territory of Wisconsin. They rep
resented the flower of German cul-
ture and received a ready welcome
III their new homes. The enthus-
iastic letters which they sent to CO.
patriots at home of the climate and
soil of Wisconsin soon attracted
hither large numbers Of others, and
by 1847, when Wisconsin was
ready to frame its constitution
their influence was strong enough
to write into the document ex-
tremely liberal provisions regard
ing franchise rights of foreign inn
migrants
When the Revolution of 1848,
the supreme effort of the German
liberals, failed thousands fled in
encouragement and came to Wis
consin to build there the home of
their ideals. With them came the
brilliant men, such as Carl Schurtz,
who were to lead Wisconsin Ger
mans in the coming conflict against
slavery. The tide of immigration
reached its height in 1884, but
large numbers Of Germans contin-
ued to come until Wisconsin be-
came popularity known as the dis
tinctively German state of the I'm
/ ion, and Milwaukee as the Ber-
I lin of America.
