Gilman became Western Counsel for the Great Northern Railway with offices at Seattle. In 1909 he removed to St. Paul to become assistant to President Louis W. Hill. While serving as Assistant to the President, Gilman was a corporate official in many of the Great Northern's subsidiary companies, notably the South Butte Mining Company and the Duluth & Superior Bridge Company. The Luthene Clairmont Gilman files document Gilman's duties as Assistant to the President. They concern mainly trackage and facilities along the line. Several files also document Gilman's position as corporate official of several subsidiary companies, notably the South Butte Mining Company and the Duluth and Superior Bridge Company. Many of the files are missing. Some were undoubtedly integrated into the main series of Presidents office subject files. Many were apparently culled and taken with Gilman when he assumed duties for Great Northern in Seattle. The extant files deal almost exclusively with areas east of the Rockies. Arrangement: The subject files are arranged numerically and thereunder the correspondence is in reverse chronological order. The miscellaneous correspondence found at the end of the numbered files was material that had not yet been integrated into the main file series at the time of Gilman's resignation. It is grouped chronologically. 132.B.20.14F 112. Switching rates on grain from Northwestern Elevator Company: Minnesota Transfer to Minneapolis, 1909-1911. 112-1.

Miscellaneous Correspondence Files This series consists of the president's files of miscellaneous correspondence received during the years 1902 to 1913. Most president's office correspondence that did not fit into the structure of the President's Office Subject Files (q.v.) ended up in this group of miscellaneous correspondence. The office of president was held by three men during these years. The principal founder of the company, James J. Hill, was president until 1907 when he became chairman of the board and his son, Louis W. Hill, took over the position of president. In May, 1912, James J. Hill resigned as chairman of the board, Louis Hill moved into that position, and C. R. Gray became president. Although most of the correspondence concerns the president, some letters addressed to and answered by the chairman of the board were placed in these files. Letters in these files fall into three main categories: the president's correspondence within the company, that with outside business interests, and that with the general public. Most of the correspondence involving outside businessmen or the general public was initiated by those parties and solicited a reply from the president. Copies of the president's replies are included in the files; many of them consist of a brief two or three sentences. Because of the miscellaneous nature of the correspondence, much of it seems to have taken up little of the president's attention. Many letters were answered by the president's assistant or received no reply at all. In general the subject matter of the correspondence remains fairly uniform over the twelve-year span of the files. However, in the early years (pre-1907) much of the correspondence is concerned with government regulation, especially in relation to the Northern Securities case and other antitrust matters. Also, for the first year of Louis Hill's presidency, the correspondence tends to focus somewhat more closely on the supervision of the company's day-to-day operations. Immediately after C. R. Gray became president, much of the correspondence involves his keeping Louis Hill well informed on the operations of the company. Finally, much of the correspondence in the winter months is concerned with coping with the harsh weather as it affected rail operations. Approximately one-quarter to one-third of the correspondence in these files involves communication within the company. Most of the letters were sent between the president and other officials high in the organization. Besides James J. Hill, Louis Hill, and C. R. Gray, frequent correspondents include H. H. Parkhouse (Assistant to the President), J. M. Gruber (General Manager), H. A. Nobel (General Passenger Agent), A. H. Hogeland (Chief Engineer), and E. C. Leedy (General Immigration Agent). Much of this intra-company correspondence is in the form of telegrams and deals with day-to-day operations. During the winter telegrams came continuously to inform the president of weather conditions along the line. Also, car loading figures were sent to the president via telegram throughout the year. Some of the telegrams are unintelligible because they are written in code. Other elements of the president's correspondence within the company involve the exchange of information in the form of articles, maps, advertisements, and government pamphlets. While much of this information deals with railroad-related matters, such as freight rates and train accidents, some of it is concerned with matters tied less directly to railroads, such as farming, mining, new technological developments, and the economy. Correspondence between the president and businessmen outside the company comprise about one-half to two-thirds of these files. This correspondence includes discussion of legal matters concerning government regulation, exchange of operating statistics, and reports on population growth in various areas. Correspondence with other railroads tends to concentrate on those of the West and South, such as the Southern Pacific, Kansas City Southern, and Union Pacific. These letters also express concerns about government regulation and serve to exchange printed information including maps and engineering periodicals. Arrangement: The files are arranged first by year and then alphabetically within each year. The alphabetical arrangement is usually based on the surname of the recipient or sender of the letter; sometimes it is based on a person or subject mentioned in the letter or the accompanying enclosure. 133.H.1.4F 1 A-M, 1902. 133.H.1.5B 2 N-Z, 1902.

Geology Department Files Geology Subject File Index The subject file index to the Geology Department files was found in a three ring binder labeled "Great Northern Railway/Coal and Ore Service/Subject File Index". On accessioning, the material was removed from the binder and placed in folders, an inventory of which is attached. The alphabetical index was xeroxed and the copies placed in a three ring binder with other Great Northern inventories. 132.C.1.9B Folder 1: Alphabetical index, A-K. Includes index to the index. Digital version Folder 2: Alphabetical index, L-Z. Digital version Folder 3: Lands affected by Agreement of May 1, 1906, between Louis W. Hill, Russell M. Bennett and Edmund J. Longyear. Miscellaneous township plats, origin and significance unknown. Consecutive number list [superseded by subject file list in Great Northern inventory]. Geology Subject Files The Geology Department subject files, numbered from 2000-2384, are the working files of Horace Vaughn Winchell (1865-1923) and F. Stewart Dalrymple (1882-1933) as geologists for the Great Northern Railway between 1906-1918. Most of the files date from this period; however many letters and reports were removed from earlier Presidents office subject files and placed with the Geology Department files. This explains the presence of material from 1888, as well as letters addressed to James J. Hill and Louis W. Hill. Upon the organization of the Trustees of the Great Northern Iron Ore Properties [GNIOP] in 1906, it became necessary to separate the function of the Geology Department into two units. All files were given new numbers. Files relating to GNIOP were numbered 1999 and lower; files relating to regular geological work were numbered 2000 and above. During the period 1906-1918, the Geology Department was known variously as the Geological Department and the Coal and Ore Service Department. Most of the files contain reports of mineral deposits, correspondence regarding the purchase and sale of mineral land, and workings of the South Butte Mining Company. Some of the files relate to the Minnesota iron ranges. Many of the files contain clippings from printed reports of the United States Geological Survey. 132.C.1.9B File no. 2000.

Letterbook Volume contains outgoing correspondence of the Advisory Board, mainly by Richard C. Morgan, Secretary. 132.C.20.3B Letterpress book, July 30, 1896-July 26, 1898. Includes index. James J. Hill Biographical Note James Jerome Hill was born in Rockwood, Ontario, Canada, in 1838, the son of James and Mary Riggs Hill. He emigrated to the United States at the age of seventeen and settled in St. Paul in 1856. During the years from 1856 to 1879, Hill was involved first in the transportation business and then in the coal and wood businesses. He carried on these enterprises in partnerships with Egbert S. Litchfield (as James J. Hill and Company); Chauncey Griggs, Alexander Griggs, and Norman Kittson; and George S. Acker, John A. Armstrong, and Edward Saunders. A well-established businessman by 1879, Hill in that year began his greatest endeavor. Along with George Stephen, Donald A. Smith, John S. Kennedy, and Norman Kittson, he formed the syndicated that reorganized the bankrupt St. Paul and Pacific Railroad into the St. Paul, Minneapolis, and Manitoba Railroad (the Manitoba). Severing all ties with the fuel business by May 1879, Hill concentrated on the railroad. He was first named its general manager, and by 1882 had become its president. In 1880 Hill also became involved in the organization of the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR). He was a member of the organizing syndicate, along with Donald A. Smith, George Stephen, John S. Kennedy, John A. MacDonald, and R. B. Angus. Hill remained active in the CPR until 1883. During the 1880s Hill also invested in coal mining in Montana and Iowa; milling in Minneapolis; water power development in Minneapolis and Great Falls, Montana; and shipping on the Great Lakes. The latter developed into the founding of the Northern Steamship Company in 1888. By 1887 the Manitoba had been extended into Montana, and in early 1889 Hill committed his railroad interests to building an extension to the Pacific Coast. In September of that year the Manitoba's Board of Directors heard and adopted plans for construction of the Great Northern Railway, a transcontinental line to the Pacific. Hill became President of the line and work commenced on the Pacific Extension. The last spike was driven on January 6, 1893. In 1895 Hill, along with George Stephen, Edward Tuck, and Thomas Skinner, formed the "London Agreement," a pact to acquire the Northern Pacific Railroad on behalf of the Great Northern. by 1900 they had achieved their goal, with Hill holding effective control of the Northern Pacific. Hill retired as president of the Great Northern in 1907 but remained active as chairman of its board of directors. In 1912 he retired from that position also. He died on May 29, 1916. Related Material The James J. Hill papers contain extensive amounts of additional incoming and outgoing correspondence related to Hill's various business interests as well as to personal matters. Correspondence: General Alphabetical Files The General Alphabetical Files (boxes 1-16) contain a variety of correspondence documenting the operation and management of Hill's railroads. The files relate to daily operational procedures and problems; financial matters; complaints; letters of introduction and recommendation; political activities; questions concerning passenger and freight rates and the development of coal lands in Iowa and Montana; order, sales, and deliveries of locomotives, cars, tracks, and other materials necessary for the operation and construction of the railroad; and requests for passes, annual reports, loans, donations, construction contracts, relief to drought and hail stricken farmers along the line, lines to be built to particular cities and towns, permission to build on the railroad's right-of-way, and the opportunity to have patents and inventions examined and tried by the railroad. Also found throughout the records are a large number of telegrams, many of which are written in the railroad's cipher code. Only part of the telegrams have been translated. Especially notable are several extended series of correspondence with a number of Hill's major associates and employees. These include E. H. Beckler, chief engineer, Great Northern; William Pitt Clough, assistant to President Hill and vice president of both the Manitoba and Great Northern; John Gordon, general manager, Northern Steamship Company; John Stewart Kennedy, member of the 1879 organizing syndicate, trustee, and financial advisor to the Manitoba and Great Northern; J. S. Kennedy and Company, New York City, bankers and financial advisers; Allen Manvel, general manager and vice president, the Manitoba; A. L. Mohler, general manager, the Manitoba and Great Northern; Edward T. Nichols, treasurer, secretary, and vice president, the Manitoba and Great Northern; P. P. Shelby, general traffic manager, Great Northern; and George Stephen, member of the organizing syndicate of the Manitoba, 1879 and the Canadian Pacific, 1880, and president of the latter.

Hill were removed from Hill's desk after his death in 1916. Instead of being integrated into the Presidents Office subject files, where most of them belong, they were retained separately. Some of the correspondence is addressed to Louis W. Hill but later forwarded to James J. Hill. The papers reflect Hill's interest in railroad extensions and in surveys and reports of areas into which Great Northern may have wished to extend. They were not kept in any distinct order, but could easily be grouped into an alphabetical series according to branch line or area of interest. The papers date between 1886 and 1916 and include a large collection of maps and reports from such diverse localities as Alaska and the Philippines. Many of the reports give much information on the business communities of the areas surveyed and thus provide a rich source of local history. 132.D.10.3B 1 Alaska railways, 1903, 1906.

Presidents Letterbooks The letterbooks of the Presidents Office consist of the outgoing letters of the President, his assistants, his secretary, and department secretaries. The Presidents and their years of service follow: James J. Hill-------1890-1907 Louis W. Hill-------1907-1912 Carl R. Gray--------1912-1914 Louis W. Hill-------1914-1919 Ralph Budd----------1919-1931 William P. Kenney---1932-1939 Frank J. Gavin------1939-1951 John M. Budd--------1951-1970 The early letters often contain a typed number near the top of the letter. This signifies the corresponding subject file of the Presidents Office. A penciled number on the letter usually signifies the page number of the last letter to that individual in that 1etterbook. Letterbooks from 1891 and 1892 also contain T. J. Hyman's letters as Vice President of the Minneapolis Union Railway Company. The early letterbooks have both subject and author indexes. Later letterbooks have only author indexes.

Maximilian E. R. Toltz: Letterbooks Maximilian E.R. Toltz held various positions within the Engineering Department of Great Northern between 1895 and 1904. Apparently these letterbooks contain his letters as a consulting engineer for Great Northern during 1906. Some of the letters are his official letters as Vice President and General Manager of the Manistee & Grand Rapids Railroad. 132.C.20.4F Volume 1. January 29-April 25, 1906. Volume 2. January 29-September 27, 1906. William P. Clough Files: Letterpress Books These volumes contain the outgoing letters and telegrams of William P. Clough, vice president of the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway and its successor, the Great Northern. The records run from 1888 to 1901; volume 8 (November 1891-June 1892) is missing and volumes 12 and 13 overlap chronologically. At the end of each volume is an alphabetical index of the recipients of Clough's communications. Most of the correspondence relates to the business operations of the company. Topics include passenger passes, bonds, mortgages, freight rates and tariffs, and leases of equipment and trackage rights. Clough regularly corresponded on these and other industry topics with officials of other railroads, such as the Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul Railway, the Duluth and Iron Range Railroad, the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha Railway, and the Union Pacific Railroad. There are quite a few letters relating to the Sioux City and Northern Railway, with which the Manitoba had close connections and which eventually became incorporated into the Great Northern. Until 1893, the Great Northern was extending its line to Seattle. A fair amount of the correspondence relates to the construction of this extension, especially to the procurement and shipment of rails and other track laying materials. Clough often sent telegrams to James J. Hill advising him of the progress of construction as well as weather and agricultural conditions on areas adjacent to the line. Clough also corresponded with businessmen closely associated with Hill, such as his son-in-law Samuel and John S. Kennedy. Some of the correspondence relates to the railroad's dealings with federal and state governments. Clough wrote several letters complaining of the failure of the Interior Department to carry out the provisions of the Manitoba's land grant. Other letters reveal Clough's dissatisfaction with the Canadian government in the Manitoba's attempt to build and operate in that country. Taxation was a frequent subject of Clough's correspondence, especially during 1888 when there was a dispute as to whether Dakota Territory would tax the Manitoba on the basis of gross earnings or property valuation. Finally, there is some correspondence relating to Clough's business and civic activities outside of the Manitoba/Great Northern. Several letters of April and May, 1891, indicate that Clough was president of the Minneapolis Union Railway, a small Hill-owned transfer railway. Clough appears to have been knowledgeable on national monetary matters and the controversy concerning the gold standard which was prominent at the time. He wrote a number of letters explaining his views on this topic, and he was a delegate to the Sound Money Convention in Indianapolis (circa 1896). Related Materials: William P.

Nichols: Letterpress books Outgoing letters of Edward Tattersall Nichols, Great Northern Vice-President, as well as some letters of the assistant treasurer and the transfer agent. The letters are largely to other Great Northern officials as well as to New York City bankers, especially those acting as transfer and fiduciary agents of Great Northern in securities transactions. Nichols's office was located in New York, at Great Northern's Wall Street address. The letters are concerned with Great Northern finances, especially with regard to the marketing, purchase, and transfer of stocks and bonds. Many letters deal with the status of Great Northern mortgages and stock sales. There is information on the continual marketing of Great Northern bonds, especially its first and refunding 4.25 percent mortgage bonds (1914-1921) and the joint 6.5 percent bonds ($230 Million) issued by Northern Pacific and Great Northern (1921). Other letters deal with the physical deposit and destruction of securities, relations with mortgage bankers and agents, coupon payments, lost certificates, mortgage applications, and taxes and fees. The letters also document the acquisition and transfer of other companies' stocks and bonds, and the achievement of control over other companies (for example, branch lines). They discuss the organization of new corporate units (for example, Great Northern Equipment Company), especially the necessary financial logistics; the sale of company land parcels; Seattle Tidelands Condemnation business (1914); and Great Northern office building matters. Each volume is indexed. 133.F.13.13B Volume 1. November 2, 1912-January 15, 1917.

Hidy History Research Materials Historical Note: In the early 1950s, prominent American business historian Ralph Hidy, New York University, and his wife Muriel, were hired by the Business History Foundation to research and write a thorough scholarly history of the Great Northern Railway. The impetus came from Great Northern's CEO, John M. Budd, and was funded by Great Northern. The work grew into a projected two-volume monograph by the late 1960s and all parties agreed that it ought to be condensed into a single volume to widen its audience appeal. That work proceeded sporadically through the 1970s and 1980s, largely due to the failing health of Ralph (d. 1977) and Muriel (d. 1985). The final work, The Great Northern Railway: A History, by Ralph W. Hidy... [et al.], was published in 1988 through successive additional work by historians Roy V. Scott and Donald L. Hoffsommer, with editorial assistance from Elizabeth A. Burnham. Citation Note: The copies of the various manuscript versions contained in these series, as well as the voluminous research notes and interview transcripts, were all donated to the Minnesota Historical Society by the Business History Foundation. Persons quoting or publishing information in these files should credit the Minnesota Historical Society as the owner of the originals, through the courtesy of the Business History Foundation. Scope and Contents: The series consists of chapter drafts, research notes, interview transcripts, and copies of Great Northern corporate documents, all compiled or created by Ralph and Muriel Hidy during their research project.

History of Immigration Department and Agricultural Development Department This historical compilation was prepared by Chester Morrison during the 1953-1956 period. Morrison was an employee of the Agricultural Development Department from 1898 until 1946. At the time he retired he was Western Land Development Agent, and he was headquartered in Seattle. Morrison was evidently retained by Great Northern in the mid-1950s to develop a history for the Hidy project of the colonization, settlement, and agricultural development efforts of the company, probably because of his past involvement in preparing historical compilations. 132.G.3.9B Part I: St. Paul and Pacific Railroad Company, 1862-1879. 2 volumes.
