Niagara-Welland Power Company Limited fonds, 1833, 1852, 1904-1906, 1909, n.d.

The Welland Power and Supply Canal Company Limited, established in 1893 and incorporated in 1894 with a capital stock of $500,000. The aim of the company was to harness the natural water supply of the Niagara and Welland Rivers. In 1898 the Canadian Electrical News published a report by Henry Symons, QC outlining the main project of the company. This project involves the construction of a canal from the Welland River to the brow of the mountain at Thorold, a distance of 8 miles; the construction at Thorold of a power house, and from Thorold to Lake Ontario, a raceway by which to carry water into the lake. The estimate for the machinery to generate 100,000 horse power is £125,000; for transmission line to Toronto at a voltage of 10,000….The total estimate therefore amounts to £2,452,162, or roughly speaking, $12,000,000. Source: Canadian Electrical News, August 1898, p. 172. In 1899 the company officers petitioned the federal government desiring a name change to the Niagara-Welland Power Company Limited. Officers of the company were Harry Symons, President; Charles A. Hesson, Vice-President; and M.R. O’Loughlin, James B. Sheehan, James S. Haydon, Frederick K. Foster, directors; John S. Campbell, secretary-treasurer. The company’s head offices were located in St. Catharines, with a New York (City) office on Broad Street. In 1905 and 1909 the company petitioned the federal government for additional time to construct its works, which was granted. The company had until May 16, 1915 to complete construction. John S. Campbell (1860-1950) was a graduate of the University of Toronto and Osgoode Hall. During his university years John began his military career first in "K" Company, Queens Own rifles and then later as Commanding Officer of the 19th Lincoln Regiment, from 1906 to 1910. Upon his return to St. Catharines John Campbell served as secretary in the St. Catharines Garrison Club, a social club for military men begun in 1899. After being called to the Bar, he became a partner in the firm of Campbell and McCarron and was appointed to the bench in 1916, serving until retirement in 1934. Judge Campbell served as an alderman for several terms and was the mayor of St. Catharines in 1908 and 1909. He also served as the first chairman of the St. Catharines Public Utilities in 1914. John S. Campbell was married to Elizabeth Oille, daughter of Jerome B. and Charlotte (St. John) Oille. The family home "Cruachan" was located at 32 Church St.

Kesken jäänyt vallankumous : Sosiaalinen mobilisaatio Helsingissä vuoden 1905 suurlakosta Viaporin kapinaan 1906

Tutkielmassani käsittelen vuoden 1905 suurlakon ja Viaporin kapinan välistä aikaa vallankumouksellisena prosessina Helsingissä. Miten vallankumouksellisuus ilmeni suurlakon aikana ja sen jälkeen Helsingissä? Miten tavalliset työläiset reagoivat tapahtumiin? Metodisina apuvälineinä minulla on ensinnäkin Charles Tillyn määritelmä vallankumoukselliselle tapahtumalle. Keskeistä tälle määritelmälle on, että vallankumouksellista tapahtumaa pitää tutkia sen lähtökohdista käsin eikä lopputuloksen kautta. Vallankumouksellinen tilanne syntyy, kun olemassa oleva hallitus saa kilpailijan ja vastaavasti se on ohi, kun jompikumpi jää jäljelle. Toiseksi apunani ovat olleet sosiaalihistorialliset tutkimukset Venäjän vallankumouksesta, joissa aihetta käsitellään ruohonjuuritason näkökulmasta. Tällöin polttopisteessä ovat lakot ja niiden aikana esitetyt vaatimukset. Oleellista näistä tutkimuksissa on, ettei työläisiä nähdä tahdottomana massana, joka sokeasti tottelee poliittisten johtajien käskyjä. Työläisillä oli omia, lähinnä ammatillisia vaatimuksia, jotka ilmensivät toisaalta huolta jokapäiväisestä toimeentulosta ja toisaalta ne heijastivat demokraattisten vaatimusten ulottamista laajemmalle kuin pelkästään valtiolliselle tasolle eli myös työpaikoille. Suurlakon aikana Helsingin työläiset johtivat käytännössä kaupungin julkista elämää. Vallan keskuksena toimi kansallislakon keskuskomitea. Näkyvintä valtaa käytti kansalliskaarti. Kaarti toimi vahvana poliisivoimana koko lakon ajan. Se pyrki kontrolloimaan liikennettä ja kauppaa sekä sensuroimaan muiden tahojen tiedonvälitystä. Raittiusväellä oli myös oma kaartin osasto, jonka avulla kaupunkiin säädettiin kieltolaki sekä kiellettiin prostituutio. Keskeinen elementti lakon onnistumisen kannalta oli niinikään avustustoiminnan järjestäminen lakon vuoksi hätään joutuneille. Näin turvattiin, ettei lakkorintamassa sattuisi ennenaikaisia repeämiä. Suurlakon jälkeen työväestö aktivoitui ennennäkemättömällä tavalla. Lakkojen lukumäärä ja niihin osallistuneiden työläisten määrä moninkertaistui. SDP:n virallinen tavoite eli poliittinen kansalaisuus ei riittänyt työläisjoukoille, vaan lakoilla pyrittiin saamaan aikaiseksi demokraattinen yhteiskunta laajemminkin. Lyhytikäisiksi jääneet työehtosopimukset eivät tilannetta korjanneet. Demokratia saatiin poliittisella tsolla, mutta ruohonjuurinäkökulmasta uudistukset jäivät kesken ja tyytymättömyys säilyi. Tässä mielessä työväenliike ei integroitunut yhteiskuntaan. Suomessa vallankumouksellinen toivo asetettiin Venäjän vallankumoustapahtumien etenemiseen. Suomalaisen radikalismin päätepisteenä voi pitää epäonnistunuttta Viaporin kapinaa, johon osallistui myös suomalaisia punakaartilaisia. Punakaartilaiset olivat suurelta osin nuoria, muualta Helsinkiin muuttaneita ja vähän järjestökokemusta omaavia henkilöitä. Nuoruus, juurettomuus ja liittyminen työväentyöväenpuolueeseen tai sen järjestöihin vasta perustamisvaiheen 1899-1903 jälkeen olivatkin leimallisia piirteitä radikaalien aineksien keskuudessa. Tutkielmassani osoitan, että ruohonjuuritason tutkimuksella voidaan kuvaa vuosisadan alun työläisistä, heidän toiveistaan ja haluistaan täsmentää. Vuosien 1905 ja 1906 poliittisessa murroksessa oli myös ammatillisilla seikoilla tärkeä sija työväestön pyrkimyksissä. Ne osoittavat omalta osaltaan työläisten vallankumouksellisia ja radikaaleja vaatimuksia. Punakaartilaisradikalismi oli läheistä sukua tälle toiminnalle.

Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928), Naturalist-in-Charge: the 1906 North Pacific Expedition of the Steamer Albatross

Fishery science pioneers often faced challenges in their field work that are mostly unknown to modern biologists. Some of the travails faced by ichthyologist and, later, fishery biologist Charles Henry Gilbert (1859-1928) during his service as Naturalist-in-Charge of the North Pacific cruise ofthe U.S. Bureau of Fisheries Steamer Albatross in 1906, are described here, as are accomplishments of the cruise. The vessel left San Francisco, Calif., on 3 May 1906, just after the great San Francisco earthquake, for scientific exploration of waters of the Aleutian islands, Bering Sea, Kamchatka, Sakhalin, and Japan, returning to San Francisco in December. Because the expedition occurred just after the war between Japan and Russia of 1904-05 floating derelict mines in Japanese waters were often a menace. Major storms caused havoc in the region, and the captain of the Albatross, Lieutenant Commander LeRoy Mason Garrett (1857-1906), U.S.N., was lost at sea, apparently thrown from the vessel during a sudden storm on the return leg of the cruise. Despite such obstacles, Gilbert and the Albatross successfully completed their assigned chores. They occupied 339 dredging and 48 hydrographic stations, and discovered over 180 new species of fishes and many new species of invertebrates. The expedition's extensive biological collections spawned over 30 descriptive publications, some of which remain today as standards of knowledge.

Eusébio de Queirós: chefe de polícia da Corte (1833-1844)

Nesta dissertação apresentamos uma análise da trajetória de Eusébio de Queirós no período em que ele ocupava o cargo de chefe de polícia da Corte (1833-1844), momento de grande turbulência social no Império, e consolidação das posições do Regresso Conservador. Mostramos como Eusébio de Queirós se precipitou sobre o "vazio" de atribuições que caracterizava a função de chefe de polícia, tornando-se um articulador da administração da justiça na Corte, após assumir a direção de uma Secretaria de Polícia da Corte com uma estrutura precária, em meio às discussões acerca do regime policial estabelecido com a adoção do Código de Processo Criminal de 1832. A ideia de que no compartilhamento da informação entre as autoridades estava a pedra angular da segurança pública foi uma constante na trajetória de Queirós, exemplificados na abordagem dada à Revolta dos Malês (1835) e às Revoltas Liberais de 1842. Esta pesquisa trabalha uma entre as possíveis caracterizações de Eusébio de Queirós, considerando as implicações de ordens biográfica e historiográfica, procurando problematizar por meio de uma trajetória específica aspectos que circundam o processo de construção do Estado nacional no Brasil.

Avaliaçāo preliminar do estado da exploraçāo de Kapenta (Limnothrissa miodon, Boulenger 1906), em cahora bassa com base em dados históricos de captura e esforço de 1995-2000

The fishing of kapenta (Limnothrissa miodon, Boulenger 1906) on the Cahora Bassa Dam started around 1992, when considerable stocks of this species were discovered in the lake. The species is believed to have successful established in the Dam following a natural introduction through a downstream movement from Kariba dam where it was introduced in 1967/68. Fisheries statistics on the kapenta fishery have been collected since 1993 by the Ministry of Fisheries through the Provincial Offices for Fisheries Administration of Tete (SPAP - Tete) but only data from 1995 onward are available on the database of the Ministry of Fisheries and these are the data that was used for compiling the present report on which trends of fishing effort, catch and CPUE are analyzed. Catch and effort have increased with time, from a minimum of the 4 thousand metric tons for an annual fishing effort of 36 fishing rigs in 1995 to a maximum of 12 tons for a fishing effort of 135 rigs while CPUE followed a decreasing trend during the same period. Correlation analysis between catch and effort suggests that probably environmental factors may have influence on catch variation than the increase on fishing effort. Two models were applied for calculating MSY and FMSY resulting in two pairs of roof leading to two scenario of fisheries management. 10137 tons and a FMSY of 177 fishing rigs were computed using Schaefer model while 11690 tons and a FMSY of 278 were obtained using Fox model. Considering the differences between the two results and considering the fact that the two models have no differences in terms of precision and the fact that their determination coefficient are not different it is suggested, using the precautionary principle that result from Schaefer model be a adopted for fisheries management purpose.
