George D. Perkins

George Douglas Perkins (February 29, 1840 - February 3, 1914) was a longtime newspaper editor, Republican U.S. Representative from Iowa's 11th congressional district in the northwestern portion of the state, and a candidate for his party's nomination as governor.
In 1860, he established the ''Cedar Falls Gazette'' in Cedar Falls, Iowa. On August 12, 1862, after the outbreak of the American Civil War, he enlisted as a private in Company B of the 31st Iowa Volunteer Infantry Regiment. His military service ended seven months later on January 12, 1863, when he returned to ''The Gazette.'' After 1866, he moved to Chicago, Illinois, and was engaged as agent of the Northwestern Associated Press until 1869.
He moved to Sioux City, Iowa, having become engaged in Chicago to Louise Julien, daughter of diamond jeweler Narcissus Julien, and in 1869 became editor and publisher of the ''Sioux City Journal.''
He was elected to one term in the Iowa State Senate, having served from 1874 to 1876. 〔Brigham, Johnson. ''(Iowa: Its History and Its Foremost Citizens )'', pp. 666 (S.J. Clarke, 1918, Iowa History Project): accessed April 12, 2009.〕 He served from 1880 to 1882 as Iowa's commissioner of immigration. On January 29, 1883, U.S. President Chester A. Arthur named Perkins as the United States marshal for the Northern District of Iowa. In 1885, he was removed by the Democratic President Grover Cleveland.
In 1890, Perkins was one of three major candidates who challenged incumbent 11th district Congressman Isaac S. Struble for the Republican nomination. At the district convention, Struble consistently outpolled the other three until, on the 43rd ballot, his opponents united behind Perkins and hence gave Perkins the nomination.〔"Perkins Nominated," Hawarden Independent, 1890-07-10 at p. 1.〕 In the worst midterm election for Republican candidates since the Civil War, Perkins was still elected in November 1890 to the 52nd United States Congress, the one known as "the billion dollar Congress."〔"(Reed's Rule is Ended )," New York Times, 1890-11-05 at p.1.〕 He was re-elected to the three succeeding Congresses. In 1894, he was one of seven Republican candidates for the U.S. Senate seat vacated by the retirement of James F. Wilson, the winner was John H. Gear.〔Dan Elbert Clark, "(History of Senatorial Elections in Iowa )," pp. 227-35 (Iowa 1913).〕 In February 1898, Lot Thomas, a state court judge, challenged Perkins for the Republican nomination to the district nominating convention on the 217th ballot.〔"Geo. D. Perkins Defeated," Sioux County Bee, 1898-06-24 at p. 8.〕 In all, Perkins served in Congress from March 4, 1891 to March 3, 1899.

Perkins returned to Sioux City and to the ''Journal.'' In 1906, he challenged incumbent Republican Governor Albert B. Cummins for the party's nomination.〔"(Cummins Renominated; a Stand-patter Now )," New York Times, 1906-08-02, at p. 1.〕 He served as delegate to the Republican National Conventions in 1876, 1880, 1888, 1908, and 1912. Perkins died in Sioux City on February 3, 1914.〔Obituary of Drusilla Marie Perkins Kazen, granddaughter of George Perkins, ''Laredo Morning Times'', December 15, 2011, p. 11A〕
