Birthplace of the Republican Party
| Republican candidates for state office started a week-long campaign at the Little White Schoolhouse in Ripon, the birthplace of the GOP in 1854. Standing on the platform, second from left, is Warren Knowles, candidate for lieutenant governor. At Knowles' left, in order, are Robert Zimmerman, running for reelection as secretary of state; Philip Kuehn, GOP gubernatorial candidate; and Ivan Kindschi, state treasurer candidate. The attorney general candidate, George Thompson, arrived after the portrait was taken. Standing at the extreme right of the schoolhouse stoop is Rep. William K. Van Pelt (R-Fond du Lac). |
