Files of the state chairman and the executive secretary provide an overview of the committee's operations and of the persons, organizations, activities, issues, projects, and state and national party subdivisions with which it interacted.

Financial records consist of journals, ledgers, and paid bills.

Organization files include instructional and promotional manuals, correspondence with district and county organizations, and files of field representatives.

Convention files document national, state, district, county, and precinct Republican conventions and caucuses, including transcripts of proceedings, lists of delegates, reports, correspondence, platforms, and background materials.

Campaign files document the roles of the Republican State Central Committee and the Republican National Committee in national and state campaigns in general and in individual Minnesota campaigns for local, state, and national offices. They also include files of the (Harold E.) Stassen for President organizations (1948), research files of Wheelock Whitney's U.S. senatorial campaign (1964), files of the (Douglas M.) Head-for-Governor Committee (1970), and recount files documenting the Republican side of the effort to establish the legal victor in the gubernatorial election between Elmer L. Andersen and Karl F. Rolvaag (1962).

Legislative office files pertain to the operation of a publicity and research service for the Republican-controlled state legislature.

Also included are Auxiliaries files which consist of records of the College Republicans of Minnesota and the Young Republican League of Minnesota.

Research department files include biographical data on major Republican, Democratic, and Democratic-Farmer-Labor (DFL) personalities, party officials, and officeholders; background information on issues, Democratic and DFL party activities, and congressional and state legislative reapportionments; and survey and poll results.

Hubert Humphrey papers are also present, consisting of speeches, some campaign related files, newspaper clippings, and other files.

Sound, visual, and graphic materials are also included. They include speeches, campaign spots, conventions, events, campaign spots (for both television and radio) and cover a wide variety of topics. Photographs, film, and sound recordings are included, along with campaign posters.

In 1975 the Republican State Central Committee changed its name to Independent Republicans.

The Main (Subject) Files represent the primary working files of the State Central Committee, with the exception of materials relating to organizational activities, conventions, and campaigns, which are filed in separate series. As such, they provide an overview of the organization's concerns, policies, operations, activities, and programs. The principal creators of these files were the state chairman and the executive secretary.

The files are arranged first by chronological period (often corresponding to the term of a state chairman) and then alphabetically by subject, topic, personal or organizational name, activity, or record type. In the case of files whose titles are names, they may contain materials to, from, and/or about the individual or organization.

Field Representative Files

Field representatives are professional political organizers employed by the State Central Committee to serve as liaisons between itself and local party organizations in the congressional districts, and to work with local party leaders and volunteers on organizational and financial matters. This sub-series consists of two groups of files: those maintained by the State Central Committee regarding its field staff; and those maintained by three individual field representatives in the party's district offices. The latter group indicates the nature of the field representative's role in the party's overall organizational structure and in formulating and executing party policies and activities on the district level. They are arranged by topic, activity, and/or record type.

The records in the Convention Files contain information about the role of the State Central Committee in organizing and preparing for the series of state party conventions which begin at the precinct level, continue on the county and district levels, and culminate at the state level. In addition, there are official records and transcripts of proceedings of these conventions as well as materials pertaining to the national conventions held during presidential election years.

The papers are arranged by year; within each year they follow the progression of the conventions themselves, as outlined above, from the precinct to the national levels.

The Campaign Files consist of two major groups of records: those created by the State Central Committee office and those created by individual campaign committees.

State Central Committee Files

These records deal with all aspects of election campaigns. They contain information about the roles of the State Central Committee and the Republican National Committee in national and state campaigns in general and information about individual campaigns. They are arranged by year and then by campaigns according to the level of the office sought, beginning with the national level and followed in turn by state, local, and out-of-state levels. Thus, in a presidential election year, the files for that year would begin with materials pertaining to the presidential campaign, followed by records of the Minnesota state campaign in general and campaigns for specific offices (United States senators, state constitutional officers, United States congressmen/congresswomen, and state legislators), concluding with the records of county, municipal, and out-of-state campaigns.

Individual Campaign Committee Files

There are three groups of papers which were generated by individual campaign committees.

The Stassen for President Files deal almost entirely with Stassen's bid for the 1948 Republican presidential nomination (although there are a few papers that relate to the same efforts in 1944 and 1952). The papers provide insight into the Stassen for President movement and organization, from its origins in Minnesota to its expansion nationwide and its culmination at the Republican National Convention.

The research files of the Wheelock Whitney 1964 senatorial campaign committee indicate what issues the committee emphasized during the campaign.

The Head for Governor Committee Files provide an example of how an individual campaign committee conducted a campaign.

Created by the staff of the Republican party's recount headquarters during the official recount of ballots and subsequent court trial, these files provide a comprehensive, in-depth picture of the Republican side of the effort to establish the legal victor in the 1962 Minnesota gubernatorial contest between Republican Elmer L. Andersen and Democrat Karl F. Ro1vaag. In general, the materials are divided into three major categories: background, informational, and housekeeping files; ballot-counting records; and trial documents.

Companion files for the Democratic effort are located in Ro1vaag's official gubernatorial papers.

The papers in this series are from the legislative office that the State Central Committee established near the State Capitol during the 1967 and 1969 state legislative sessions. Its purpose was two-fold: 1) to provide Conservative (Republican) state legislators with publicity and research services -- picture-taking; assistance with newsletters, news releases, and radio tapes; background research for speeches and legislation; and 2) to conduct post-session publicity efforts detailing the accomplishments of the Conservative (Republican)-controlled legislature.

The Auxiliaries Files consist of records of two of the party's auxiliary organizations: College Republicans of Minnesota and Young Republican League of Minnesota.

The arrangement of the Auxiliaries Files is not consistent, due to the fact that the papers in this series have been left in essentially the same order and condition they were in when received from the State Central Committee.

These files provide information regarding organizational policy, activities, finances, relations with the State Central Committee, and other functions and programs.

The files of the Research Department of the State Central Committee contain desk files (organized first by date and then by topic, activity, record type, etc.), information about major Minnesota Republican and Democratic personalities (in alphabetical order by name), biographical information compiled for publicity purposes on major contemporary Republican party officials and office holders (in alphabetical order); information about several DFL scandals, notably the American Allied Insurance Company case; background materials on congressional and state legislative reapportionment during the 1960s and 1970s; and results of polls and surveys conducted for the State Central Committee by professional analysts (filed chronologically).

These files reflect only a small portion of the activities of the Research Department. Much material was retained by the Department for its current files; many of the materials transferred to the Minnesota Historical Society were too sketchy and incomplete to form meaningful independent units and were appropriately interfiled among other series in the collection.

The newspaper clippings, measuring 87 linear feet, have been microfilmed on 60 rolls of microfilm and are cataloged separately. See M368 for a full description of these clippings.
