Thesis Rapid Ascent: Rocky Mountain National Park In
THESIS RAPID ASCENT: ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK IN THE GREAT ACCELERATION, 1945-PRESENT Submitted by Mark Boxell Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2016 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Mark Fiege Ben Bobowski Adrian Howkins John Lindenbaum Jared Orsi Copyright by Mark Boxell 2016 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT RAPID ASCENT: ROCKY MOUNTAIN NATIONAL PARK IN THE GREAT ACCELERATION, 1945-PRESENT After the Second World War’s conclusion, Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) experienced a massive rise in visitation. Mobilized by an affluent economy and a growing, auto- centric infrastructure, Americans rushed to RMNP in droves, setting off new concerns over the need for infrastructure improvements in the park. National parks across the country experienced similar explosions in visitation, inspiring utilities- and road-building campaigns throughout the park units administered by the National Park Service. The quasi-urbanization of parks like RMNP implicated the United States’ public lands in a process of global change, whereby wartime technologies, cheap fossil fuels, and a culture of techno-optimism—epitomized by the Mission 66 development program—helped foster a “Great Acceleration” of human alterations of Earth’s natural systems. This transformation culminated in worldwide turns toward mass-urbanization, industrial agriculture, and globalized markets. The Great Acceleration, part of the Anthropocene— a new geologic epoch we have likely entered, which proposes that humans have become a force of geologic change—is used as a conceptual tool for understanding the connections between local and global changes which shaped the park after World War II. -

These reports are the result of two analyses: A procedural audit and a statistical audit. The procedural audit examines all classes of property. It specifically looks at how the assessor develops economic areas, confirms and qualifies sales, develops time adjustments and performs periodic physical property inspections. The audit reviews the procedures for determining subdivision absorption and subdivision discounting. Valuation methodology is examined for residential properties and commercial properties. Procedures are reviewed for producing mines, oil and gas leaseholds and lands producing, producing coal mines, producing earth and stone products, severed mineral interests, and non- producing patented mining claims. Statistical audits are performed on vacant land, residential properties, commercial/industrial properties and agricultural land. A statistical analysis is performed for personal property compliance on the eleven largest counties: Adams, Arapahoe, Boulder, Denver, Douglas, El Paso, Jefferson, Larimer, Mesa, Pueblo and Weld. The remaining counties receive a personal property procedural study. Wildrose Appraisal Inc. – Audit Division appreciates -
Revising Judicial Application of the Single Subject Rule to Initiative Petitions
\\jciprod01\productn\N\NYS\66-4\NYS404.txt unknown Seq: 1 22-APR-11 12:21 REVISING JUDICIAL APPLICATION OF THE SINGLE SUBJECT RULE TO INITIATIVE PETITIONS FLORIN V. IVAN* The idea that an impartial branch of government protects the rule of law is appealing to many—so much so that the requirement of judicial impartiality is enshrined in our federal Constitution.1 While both federal and state courts may be vulnerable to accusa- tions of judicial activism tainted by partisan politics,2 state courts are seen as more susceptible to political pressure.3 Few situations are as sensitive as cases in which state courts invalidate action by political branches.4 It stands to reason, then, that when state courts invalidate citizen-initiated ballot petitions in states that recognize the people’s right to legislate directly, the judiciary would be highly susceptible to charges of partisanism. The charges might intensify when amorphous doctrines such as the single subject rule and equally amorphous jurisprudence combine to strike down popular initiatives before they appear on the ballot. This Note answers critics and supporters of the single subject rule by exploring in depth the single subject jurisprudence in one state: Colorado. The Note examines the case law through the lens of four different hypotheses and tries to determine whether initia- * J.D., New York University School of Law. Law clerk to the Hon. David G.

A Naturalist in the Colorado Rockies, 18 7 6
A Naturalist in the Colorado Rockies, 18 7 6 BY MICHAEL J. BRODHEAD On 3 July 1876 good news came to Captain Elliott Coues, assistant surgeon, United States Army. Special Order Number 134 of the Adjutant General's Office relieved him from his duties as surgeon and naturalist of the United States Northern Boun dary Commission and directed him to report to the secretary of the interior for a new and most desirable position as secretary and naturalist for Ferdinand V. Hayden's United States Geological Survey of the Territories. 1 Coues {pronounced "cows") was no ordinary army "saw bones." He was then recognized as one of the preeminent or nithologists of the day. Since childhood in his native New Hampshire and during his adolescence in Washington, D. C., he was an avid student of nature. Under the tutelage of Spencer Fullerton Baird, assistant secretary of the Smithsonian In stitution, Coues developed into a full-fledged naturalist. He began writing his incredibly large number of publications on birds and other animals while still in his teens. Shortly after receiving a medical degree at Columbian College, Washington, D.C., in 1863, he was made an assistant surgeon in the army and was sent to Fort Whipple, Arizona Territory. For sixteen months, in 1864 and 1865, he performed his risky medical duties in Apache country while simultaneously observing and reporting upon the territory's natural history. Between 1866 and 1872 he served as a surgeon in various military posts in the Carolinas and Maryland. In 1872, not long after the publication of his monumental Key to North American Birds, he was sent to Fort Randall in Dakota Territory. -

Colorado Office of Lt
Colorado Office of Lt. Governor Data Sheet As of July 22, 2016 History of Office The Office of the Lt. Governor of Colorado was established with the state constitution of 1876.1 Origins of the Office The Office of the Lt. Governor of Colorado was established with constitution of 1876 as the gubernatorial successor. Qualifications for Office The Council of State Governments (CSG) publishes the Book of the States (BOS) 2015. In chapter 4, Table 4.13 lists the Qualifications and Terms of Office for lieutenant governors: The Book of the States 2015 (CSG) at www.csg.org. Method of Election The National Lieutenant Governors Association (NLGA) maintains a list of the methods of electing gubernatorial successors at: http://www.nlga.us/lt-governors/office-of-lieutenant- governor/methods-of-election/. Duties and Powers A lieutenant governor may derive responsibilities one of four ways: from the Constitution, from the Legislature through statute, from the governor (thru gubernatorial appointment or executive order), thru personal initiative in office, and/or a combination of these. The principal and shared constitutional responsibility of every gubernatorial successor is to be the first official in the line of succession to the governor’s office. Succession to Office of Governor In the election of 1904, Alva Adams was thought to have won, however, Republicans, who still controlled the state legislature, insisted that owing to fraud and corruption the election was stolen from James Hamilton Peabody. On the day that Alva Adams took office on March 17, 1905, the Republican-controlled legislature voted to remove him from office and reinstall Peabody, on the condition that Peabody immediately resign. -
Colorado Governors Teller Ammons
Colorado Governors Teller Ammons Scope and Content Note The Teller Ammons collection comprises approximately 21 cubic feet of record material spanning his term from 1937-1939. Major record series included in the collection are correspondence; miscellaneous; reports; petitions; Executive Record; Budget & Efficiency Investigations 1938; and speeches and messages. The correspondence series makes up the bulk of the collection and is organized by subject or correspondent. Strengths of the collection include documentation concerning water rights controversies, federal programs instituted to fight the poverty created by the Great Depression, and Ammons' efforts to make the state more financially sound and efficient. Biography of Teller Ammons Teller Ammons was one of the youngest men ever to become governor of Colorado. He was elected shortly before his fortieth birthday in 1936. Teller was the son of former Governor Ellias M. Ammons, who served as the state's chief executive from 1912 to 19 14. Ammons was born in Denver on December 3, 1895, and was named after his father's friend, U.S. Senator Henry M. Teller of Colorado. His family moved to Colorado in 1871, five years before the territory became a state. He received his early educatio n in Douglas County rural schools where he lived on his father's cattle ranch. He then moved to Denver and graduated from North High School. Ammons later served in the U.S. Army in France for two years during World War I. After the war, he homesteaded on a ranch in Grand County but returned to Denver in 1923, where he went to work for a newspaper. -

FERS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.65 HC-$6.58 DESCRIPTORS *Agricultural Research Projects, *Bibliographies, Cooperatives, Farm Management, Historical Reviews, *Organizations (Groups), *Research Needs, *Rural Economics, Sociology A PSTR ACT One of the purposes of the North Central Rural Sociology Sub-committee on Farm Organizations is to serve as a mechanism through which statewide studies of farm organizations in Wisconsin and Michigan would be partially coordinated. To communicate both the knowledge needs and the accumulated literature on farmers' organizations and movements to other researchers is the purpose of this bulletin. Part I of the bulletin comprises 3 essays that outline the sub-committee members' views on needed research. The first 2 essays, "Some Needs in Farm Organization Research" and "Needed Research on Farmers' Movements," deal primarily with research that would contribute to the development of basic sociological knowledge and theory on organizations and movements. The third essay, "Applied Sociological Research on Farm Organizations and Farmers' Movements," focuses specifically on research of practical utility to those concerned with building viable farm organizations. Part II of the bulletin is "A Bibliography of U.S. and Canadian Gener-1 Farm Organizations and Farmers' Movements," consisting of 998 items published between 1846 and 1969.
