Lloyd, Henry Demarest, 1847-1903. Papers, 1840-1937, 1977.

Title: Papers, 1840-1937, 1977.

Papers of Henry Lloyd, American journalist and social-economic reformer, whose name is associated with late nineteenth century populism and radical thought in the United States from 1881-1903. Lloyd was one of the first systematic students of rising corporate capitalism; a pioneer in the field of business and social ethics for an urban-industrial America; a silk-stocking champion of labor's right to organize and a leader in its fight for better treatment; an investigator of the "new liberalism" and of cooperative movements in Europe and of state socialism in New Zealand, and a transmitter of their experiences to America; and an author whose work included his muckraking "Wealth against Commonwealth" (1894), the bulk of whose original manuscript is in the collection. Papers consist of correspondence, 1866-1936; manuscripts of articles and books written by Lloyd; scrapbooks containing annotated clippings of articles by and about Lloyd and subjects in which he was interested; book reviews; research materials; and miscellany. In the miscellany is correspondence, 1896-1937, of Caro Lloyd, mainly dealing with her preparation of the 2-volume biography of her brother, published in 1912; papers from Lloyd's participation in civic activities as a resident of Winnetka, Ill.; and documents from his work with the People's Party, 1894-1896. Lloyd's correspondents included men and women of distinction from a wide geographical area. Among those whose letters are most numerous are: Jane Addams, John P. Altgeld, Edward W. Bemis, Samuel Bowles, John Burroughs, William Clarke of England, Clarence L. Darrow, Thomas Davidson, Eugene V. Debs, Richard T.
