John F. Miller papers, 1889-1938 (1900-1936).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/57119573

Almost all of Miller's papers are from his public career, especially from his service in Congress. Much of the correspondence and part of the legislation series documents Miller's bill to create a Division of Venereal Disease in the U.S. Public Health Service in 1918. Miller's speeches, largely political, date mainly from late in his career. The largest series consists of diaries, which begin in 1900 but which then skip to 1917 and continue throughout Miller's life. Diaries from his term as mayor of Seattle are not part of this collection. A small subgroup has been created for his wife, Mary Miller's incoming letters and several programs.
