  Alabama Governor James Folsom, sr.
James Elisha Folsom, the forty-fifth and forty-seventh governor of Alabama, was born October 9, 1908, in Coffee County, one of eight children born to Joshua and Eulala Dunnavant Folsom.
Folsom's first term in office was also marred by a paternity case and accusations "of scandal, misconduct, and corruption in various state agencies under Folsom's control or the guidance of his associates." He achieved some of his goals: increased funding to aid education and the elderly as well as road improvements.
During the first year of Folsom's second administration, most of his programs to expand state services were enacted and he almost succeeded in partly achieving his long-term goal of reapportionment in the legislature.

 Federalist Party (United States) Summary
In most states the congressional elections were recognized, as Jefferson strategist John Beckley put it, as a "struggle between the Treasury department and the republican interest." In New York, the race for governor was organized along these lines.
In New England and in some districts in the middle states the Federalists clung to power, but the tendency from 1800 to 1812 was steady slippage almost everywhere, as the Republicans perfected their organization and the Federalists played catch-up.
Militia officers, state's attorneys, lawyers, professors and schoolteachers were in the van of this "conscript army." In all, about a thousand or eleven hundred dependent officer-holders were described as the inner ring which could always be depended upon for their own and enough more votes within their control to decide an election.

Oregon became a state on February 14, 1859 and the state's first legislative session, a special session, was held in May, 1859.
