'A lot of people who take a look at the history of Joseph Lane don't like what they see'


Joseph Lane ran for vice president of the United States on a pro-slavery platform in 1860. He lost. The Civil War broke out the next year, but Lane returned to Oregon to ranch in the Umpqua Valley. He never re-entered politics. (Library of Congress)
