Biography/History

Arnold W. Zander, Sr., Wisconsin Socialist and advocate of money reform, was born of German parents, William and Augusta Zander, at Gibson, Wisconsin, on March 6, 1868. One of six children, he spent the greater part of his life in Two Rivers, Wisconsin. On September 28, 1893, he married Anna Katherine Scheuer. Six children were born of this marriage: Arnold S., Gerald S., Eugene, Mercedes, Edith, and Berenice.

Zander held various civic and public offices while living in Two Rivers. In 1896, he was elected an alderman of that city and he served on the city council at various times during the 1920s and 1930s. A member of the Two Rivers Transportation Commission, he was chairman of the regulation committee. In 1938, he served on the board of directors of the Two Rivers Hospital. In 1919 he ran unsuccessfully for mayor.

Zander was a member of the Wisconsin Socialist Party throughout most of his life. He ran for several posts at the state level on the Socialist ticket: Insurance Commissioner (1902); State Senator (1914); and Secretary of State (1932). None of his state-wide campaigns were successful.

His principal political interest was with regard to national monetary reform and he began his attack on this system in 1896 in a letter to the editor of the Chronicle stating his opposition to the national bond and currency system. He was a member of the Greenback Party of Indianapolis, Indiana, for sixty years, occupying a position on the National Advisory Board of that party in 1953-1954 as a representative from Wisconsin.

Other political, civic, and social movements attracted him as well. A strong advocate of the city manager form of local government, he worked for its implementation in Two Rivers in 1925. In the late 1940s, Zander donated a fifteen-acre tract of land to the City of Two Rivers for recreation purposes and it was turned into a park. In 1945 he was chairman of the 8th Congressional District for the Townsend Council. His son, Arnold S. Zander, served as the president of the State, County, and Municipal Employees Union of the American Federation of Labor (200,000 members). The son attacked Senator Joseph McCarthy's record in a widely publicized speech during the senatorial race of 1952.

Arnold W. Zander wrote and spoke frequently to bring his beliefs to the attention of others. He also composed a few songs, and invented a device for turning music. He died in October, 1959, at the age of ninety-one.

The collection also includes some papers of William Zander, father of Arnold W. Zander. William was born in 1844, the son of Johann Zander, a shepherd and farmer of Klein-Tessin (Germany). When William, who was the youngest of nine children, was eleven, the family immigrated to the United States. Disembarking at Buffalo, New York, they entrained to Milwaukee and traveled from there to Manitowoc, Wisconsin, by boat. William's wife, whom he married in 1867, was also born in what is now Germany. William started a sawmill at Two Rivers, Wisconsin, in 1885, that was still in operation eleven years later, and possibly longer. It is known that William and Augusta Zander celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary in 1917, but beyond these sketchy facts no information concerning them is readily available.

Scope and Content Note

The papers of Arnold W. Zander are separated into two parts. Both parts contain similar material. The materials received in the Archives in the 1960s make up the first two boxes and date 1896-1959. They are assigned call number Green Bay Mss 29. Part two consists of additions given to the archives primarily in 1972; the three boxes of the additions contain materials from 1822 to 1965. In addition to papers of Arnold W. Zander, the additions have genealogical material and the papers of Arnold W. Zander's father, William. The additions are assigned call number Green Bay Mss 44.

Part 1, Original Collection, 1896-1959

This part of the papers of Arnold W. Zander of Two Rivers, Wisconsin, contain his personal correspondence with noted socialist and money-reform (Greenback Party) leaders. In these letters are lengthy discussions of topics relative to these movements, e.g. federal bond and currency issues, cooperatives, federal and state programs for employment, and union problems. Although not complete, the papers provide an insight into the character of Arnold W. Zander, as well as a number of the political questions prominent during the first half of the twentieth century.

Also included are a number of unpublished manuscripts by Zander. His writings include one book-length manuscript, The Orthodox God, as well as essays and articles on socialism, the Greenback movement, religion, smoking, and drinking. There are a few financial records, along with miscellaneous groupings of material, such as the original patent of Zander's “Device for turning music leaves” and the drawings which accompanied the patent application.

The original materials presented to the Society contained many newspaper clippings, broadsides, pamphlets, books, etc. These have been transferred to the Historical Society Library for disposition.

Part 2, Additions, 1822-1965

The additions to the Arnold Zander papers consist of a few letters, some Xerox copies of genealogical records from two Zander family Bibles, writings, clippings and printed materials concerning socialism and monetary reform, some miscellaneous notes and financial records, minutes of the local Two Rivers Social Democratic Party, and a few items originally belonging to William Zander.

The genealogical entries recorded in the Zander family Bibles date from 1822 to 1888. The Bibles themselves have been returned to the donor, and Xerox copies of the pertinent pages have been filed with the papers.

The small correspondence file (1892-1958) includes letters dealing with social and economic reform “to the editor,” or exchanged with legislators and Greenback Party leaders, a letter to Franklin D. Roosevelt, as well as letters of a more personal nature.

The writings include articles and drafts of “letters to the editor” on monetary reform, the question of interest, and Zander's philosophy in general.

Most of the clippings are from the Manitowoc Daily Herald-Times, The Milwaukee Journal, The Milwaukee Sentinel, and The Milwaukee Leader, a socialist newspaper. They include letters to the editor, periodical statements concerning the condition of local banks, and general articles dealing with socialism and the economy.

The file of printed material has been divided into circulars and near-print and serials and other published materials. The bulk of these items deal with economic reform and socialism. Other items in the collection include a few of Zander's personal notes (1918-1944), and 1905 financial records, and minutes of the Two Rivers Social Democratic Party (1904-1908).

The papers of William Zander preserved here consist of two ledgers containing business and personal records (1875-1896), and a set of building specifications for construction of a house (1886).

All the above files are arranged chronologically except for the serials and other published materials, which have been given an alphabetical arrangement by title.

Note: The following item by item listing for the Zander correspondence was worked out by two members of the class in Modern Archives Administration, when they originally processed the papers.
