Senator Cushman K. Davis Remembered as Nation’s Leader
The death of Senator Cushman K. Davis marks the loss of a prominent statesman who shaped foreign policy as head of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and served as a Paris Peace Commissioner. A Wisconsin native who rose to Minnesota prominence, he was renowned as a constitutional lawyer and western exemplar. The nation and Minnesota pay tribute, with observers noting no one can fill his Senate seat. The piece also notes Ashland and Washburn smallpox cases evolving into a reference to old fashioned itchy politics and the Madison-Rice Lake scramble for appointments.
