Struble was midway through his term as speaker of the House of Representatives) to reapportion the state's nine-district map into an eleven-district map. Plymouth County and much of northwestern Iowa was included in a new Eleventh District. In 1882, Isaac Struble won the Republican nomination to become the Eleventh District's first representative, then won the general election, becoming a member of the <a href="/wiki/Forty-eighth_United_States_Congress" class="mw-redirect" title="Forty-eighth United States Congress">Forty-eighth United States Congress</a>. Struble entered the U.S. House as a member of a freshman class so large that it made up a majority of the House membership, something that has never recurred. </p><p>During the three subsequent elections (in 1884, 1886, and 1888), Struble won the Republican renomination by acclamation in district nomination conventions then defeated <a href="/wiki/Democratic_Party_(United_States)" title="Democratic Party (United States)">Democratic Party</a> and <a href="/wiki/Greenback_Party" title="Greenback Party">Greenback Party</a> candidates in the general election. Struble was, according to the <i>New York Times</i>, "exceptionally popular" at the end of his third term.<sup id="cite_ref-nytimes_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nytimes-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> But in 1890, after 43 ballots, the GOP nominating convention gave its nod to the newspaper editor and former state senator, <a href="/wiki/George_D._Perkins" title="George D. Perkins">George D. Perkins</a> of Sioux City, who held the seat from 1891 to 1899.<sup id="cite_ref-nytimes_1-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nytimes-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In all, Struble served in Congress from March 4, 1883 to March 3, 1891. </p><p>Struble's support in Congress for the <a href="/wiki/McKinley_Tariff" title="McKinley Tariff">McKinley Tariff</a> bill in 1890 had been unpopular with farmers in Iowa, who foresaw that a trade war would hurt agricultural exports. The tariff was also a factor in the subsequent economic depression of 1893–97. The tariff's widespread unpopularity at the time of its passage resulted in a Democratic landslide so sweeping nationally that the election of 1890 dropped the Republicans from their majority of 51% in the House down to a minority of only 27% of the House membership. </p><p>During his four terms (1883–1891), Congressman Struble enjoyed considerable popularity in his district among rank-and-file citizens, and a small town founded at the time was given the name <a href="/wiki/Struble,_Iowa" title="Struble, Iowa">"Struble"</a> in his honor. </p><p>Another measure of Struble's popularity as a representative in Congress was the impressive reception he received in his hometown of LeMars when, in March 1891, he made his final return to Iowa from the halls of Congress. Upon arriving by train, he was greeted by a large crowd, and regaled by the local Striker's Band. A stage had been prepared, and after welcoming words from the mayor and local dignitaries, Struble delivered his farewell address. </p><p>As reprinted in the <i>LeMars Sentinel</i> Struble's speech outlined the blessings and burdens of being a member of the House of Representatives contemporaneous with the likes of House Speaker <a href="/wiki/Thomas_Brackett_Reed" title="Thomas Brackett Reed">Thomas Brackett Reed</a>, future speaker <a href="/wiki/Joseph_Gurney_Cannon" title="Joseph Gurney Cannon">Joe Cannon</a> and future president <a href="/wiki/William_McKinley" title="William McKinley">William McKinley</a>. He offered remarks about such subjects as the proper limits of partisan politics, political patronage, and the heavy load of constituent services and committee work already demanded of a Congressman at that time. His reflections offer a useful study on the "ombudsman" role as it operated a dozen decades ago, a task so time-consuming in the 21st century that several staffers per Congressman work full-time on constituent services.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>On his career in Congress the <i>Congressional Record</i> provides further information, including his votes and the text of his floor speeches.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The <i>History of Woodbury and Plymouth Counties</i> published in the early 1890s indicates that, from the standpoint of his peers in Congress, Struble "was always considered a strong member." As a former soldier, Congressman Struble devoted much time to the interests of his constituents in the armed services, including veterans. He knew how to secure lucrative projects for his district, such as the Sioux City public building bill (1890).<sup id="cite_ref-nytimes_1-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nytimes-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It was in the <a href="/wiki/United_States_House_Committee_on_Territories" title="United States House Committee on Territories">United States House Committee on Territories</a>, however, that Struble figured most prominently. </p><p>Struble chaired this standing committee during his fourth term. His influence in the Committee on the Territories played a significant role in the admission into the union of six western states – <a href="/wiki/Idaho" title="Idaho">Idaho</a>, <a href="/wiki/Montana" title="Montana">Montana</a>, <a href="/wiki/Washington_(U.S._state)" class="mw-redirect" title="Washington (U.S. state)">Washington</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wyoming" title="Wyoming">Wyoming</a> and the two Dakotas, and the organization of <a href="/wiki/Oklahoma_Territory" title="Oklahoma Territory">Oklahoma Territory</a>. Meanwhile, Senator <a href="/wiki/Shelby_Cullom" class="mw-redirect" title="Shelby Cullom">Shelby Cullom</a> of Illinois together with Congressman Struble pushed the <i>Cullom-Struble Bill</i>, whose sanctions against <a href="/wiki/Polygamy" title="Polygamy">polygamy</a> included exclusion of the <a href="/wiki/Utah_Territory" title="Utah Territory">Utah Territory</a> from statehood. The bill was on the verge of passing Congress in 1890, but the legislation was preempted when <a href="/wiki/The_Church_of_Jesus_Christ_of_Latter-day_Saints" title="The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints">the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints</a> (LDS Church) formally disavowed polygamous marriages with the <a href="/wiki/1890_Manifesto" title="1890 Manifesto">1890 Manifesto</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>During their political careers, he and his brother, George R. Struble, were cultural conservatives of the 19th century sort. Both supported <a href="/wiki/Prohibition" title="Prohibition">prohibition</a>, and Isaac was prominent in his opposition to bigamy.

As a lawyer, Struble acquired an enemy, William Cassmer, who became so incensed that he entered Struble's office with a whip, but Struble, then 63, faced him down. On the following day, however, while outside on the sidewalk, Struble made the mistake, as he later admitted, of turning his back on Cassmer. Cassmer struck Struble on the back of the neck, which rendered Struble unconscious for several minutes and resulted in injuries requiring the attention of a physician. </p><p>Isaac was a charter member of the First Congregational Church in Le Mars, and was also active in the Masonic fraternal order. </p><p>Struble died suddenly of a diabetic seizure in Le Mars, and is buried in the Le Mars Cemetery.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He was survived by his wife and four of his five children. </p> <figure class="mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Isaac_Struble_grave07.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/02/Isaac_Struble_grave07.jpg/300px-Isaac_Struble_grave07.jpg" decoding="async" width="300" height="240" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/Isaac_Struble_grave07.jpg 1.5x" data-file-width="400" data-file-height="320" /></a><figcaption>Three Struble headstones from left, daughter, Myrtle; wife, Adelaide; and Isaac.</figcaption></figure> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="References">References</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Isaac_S._Struble&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: References"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1238218222">.mw-parser-output cite.citation{font-style:inherit;word-wrap:break-word}.mw-parser-output .citation q{quotes:"\"""\"""'""'"}.mw-parser-output .citation:target{background-color:rgba(0,127,255,0.133)}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-free.id-lock-free a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/65/Lock-green.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited.id-lock-limited a,.mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration.id-lock-registration a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d6/Lock-gray-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription.id-lock-subscription a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/aa/Lock-red-alt-2.svg")right 0.1em center/9px no-repeat}.mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background:url("//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4c/Wikisource-logo.svg")right 0.1em center/12px no-repeat}body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-free a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-limited a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-registration a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .id-lock-subscription a,body:not(.skin-timeless):not(.skin-minerva) .mw-parser-output .cs1-ws-icon a{background-size:contain;padding:0 1em 0 0}.mw-parser-output .cs1-code{color:inherit;background:inherit;border:none;padding:inherit}.mw-parser-output .cs1-hidden-error{display:none;color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-visible-error{color:var(--color-error,#d33)}.mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{display:none;color:#085;margin-left:0.3em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-left{padding-left:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .cs1-kern-right{padding-right:0.2em}.mw-parser-output .citation .mw-selflink{font-weight:inherit}@media screen{.mw-parser-output .cs1-format{font-size:95%}html.skin-theme-clientpref-night .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}@media screen and (prefers-color-scheme:dark){html.skin-theme-clientpref-os .mw-parser-output .cs1-maint{color:#18911f}}</style><cite id="CITEREFUnited_States_CongressS001028/Biographical" class="citation web cs1">United States Congress. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://bioguide.congress.gov/scripts/biodisplay.pl?index=S001028/"><b>Biographical "STRUBLE, Isaac S (id: S001028/</b>Biographical)"</a>. <i><a href="/wiki/Biographical_Directory_of_the_United_States_Congress" title="Biographical Directory of the United States Congress">Biographical Directory of the United States Congress</a></i>.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&rft.genre=unknown&rft.jtitle=Biographical+Directory+of+the+United+States+Congress&rft.atitle=STRUBLE%2C+Isaac+S+%28id%3A+S001028%2FBiographical%29&rft.au=United+States+Congress&rft_id=http%3A%2F%2Fbioguide.congress.gov%2Fscripts%2Fbiodisplay.pl%3Findex%3DS001028%2F%27%27%27Biographical&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AIsaac+S.+Struble" class="Z3988"></span>; <i>History of the Counties of Woodbury and Plymouth, Iowa,</i> (Chicago: A.

The following excerpt remains pertinent to the burden of constituent services still carried by every member of the national legislature. "...The other side of Congressional life is that represented by hours of labor in reading and answering correspondence from the people of the district, in attending to the almost innumerable calls from them in respect to personal matters of interest to each, requiring daily visitations to the different departments, and the examination into matters requiring much care in order to be able to make intelligent reports of the condition of the matter inquired into, to the constituent concerned therein; and the work in committees, often requiring painstaking labor extending hours after the committee sessions may have closed. These represent the side of toil which is burdensome to an extent not easily appreciated by those having no acquaintance with this feature of congressional life. It is true that some members are able to employ stenographic help to an extent that greatly relieves from personal fatigue incident to the discharge of these duties, but all members do not feel able to bear the expense of such employment, and hence many of them devote hours each day and night in personal attention to these duties. I refrain from making any specific allusion to another element of congressional life, namely, that in relation to the public patronage, with the simple statement, that all other cares and responsibilities bear light as a feather on the congressional mind in comparison with that unavoidable duty of making choice among his political friends for appointment to public service."</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-4"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-4">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text">For some of Struble's oratory see, for example, <i>Congressional Record</i>, 1890, pp. 4779-80.
