Walter McKenzie Clark (August 19, 1846 - May 20, 1924) was a North Carolina politician and attorney who served as an associate justice (1889-1903) and chief justice (1903-1924) of the North Carolina Supreme Court. In April 1885, Governor Alfred M. Scales appointed Clark a judge of the superior court, and in 1889, Gov. Daniel G. Fowle elevated him to the state Supreme Court. He was elected to the Supreme Court in 1890, and in 1894, was re-elected with the support of not only his own Democratic Party, but also that of the Republicans and Populists. Clark was elected chief justice in 1902 and re-elected several times. In 1912, he unsuccessfully ran for the United States Senate as a liberal reformer against fellow Democrat Furnifold Simmons. Clark died in office in 1924. Clark encouraged several reforms, including changes in the election laws, child labor regulations, funding for public education, and women's suffrage. He also vehemently opposed the unfair practices of the industrial giants in the railroad, banking, and tobacco industries, incurring the enmity of the powerful forces within North Carolina. This volume includes some correspondence between Judge Clark and Theodore Roosevelt as well as numerous references to him in the Index. One reference to President McKinley but some correspondence with President Taft and also references to him in the text. …

Illustrations, Facsimiles, Portraits. Hardcover in worn dust jackets. Volume one in worn price clipped dust jacket with detached rear flap. Both internally clean. $50. * "The papers of Chief Justice Walter Clark, of North Carolina, cover some of the most explosive decades in American life--from the war in which he fought as a boy to his "years of decision" on the Supreme Court of his state. It was a period of great expansion, great corruption, powerful aggregations of wealth, indifference to the general welfare, and a slow awakening of labor to a sense of its latent power. All this was Clark's milieu--and he was anything but a passive observer" (Front flap, Vol. 1).…
