80 Kansas History “Peerless Princess of the Southwest”: Boosterism and Regional Identity in Wichita, Kansas
“Corn is King” (1887). Courtesy of the Wichita-Sedgwick County Historical Museum. Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 38 (Summer 2015): 80–107 80 Kansas History “Peerless Princess of the Southwest”: Boosterism and Regional Identity in Wichita, Kansas by Jay M. Price n 1887 the Wichita Board of Trade issued an elaborate map celebrating the city’s prominence as a regional trade and commercial center. Wichita appeared as a bustling powerhouse of activity in Kansas and the central United States. Exaggerated scale highlighted Wichita’s purported status as a hub of rail lines that extended to New Orleans, Galveston, El Paso, Los Angeles, Denver, Kansas City, Omaha, and Chicago. Equally striking were the slogans and titles that described the city as the “Peerless Princess of the Plains,” the “Magical Mascot,” the “Mecca of Men,” the I“Jerusalem of the West,” and the “Favored City.” In the upper corner was a blank space for a sponsoring organization. The Wichita Journal of Commerce, for example, did so, mentioning that it was in “the Great Southwest, Wichita, Its Metropolis.”1 A century later, equating Wichita with the Southwest would seem odd. By the 1980s, the term “southwestern” evoked images of howling coyotes, saguaros, Mexican food, and adobe architecture.2 Depending on the speaker, Wichita was a city of the Midwest, which extended from Kansas to the Great Lakes; the Great Plains, which ran from the Dakotas down to Texas; or an ill-defined “Heartland,” where fields and farms extended to the flat horizon, punctuated by massive grain elevators. Regardless of specific regional affiliation, however, one feature stood out: location.
