URL of article: http://www.nebraskahistory.org/publish/publicat/history/full-text/NH1972Chadron_Race.pdf Date: 6/22/2011 Article Summary: Horse racing was a popular sport of the American West. As preparations were made for the 1893 Columbian Exposition in Chicago, with its emphasis upon American accomplishments and customs, it was not surprising that someone suggested a horse race from the West to Chicago. The ride was designed to pit skilled Western horsemen against each other over a one thousand-mile route spanning the three states of Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois. This article presents the planning, the promotion, the opposition, and the story of the actual race. Cataloging Information: Names: A C Putnam, N H Weir, William

  • Telling the Story: Changing Perceptions of the Lewis and Clark Journals
    TELLING THE STORY: CHANGING PERCEPTIONS OF THE LEWIS AND CLARK JOURNALS by Deborah Malony Dukes A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Social Science Emphasis: Teaching American History May 2006 TELLING THE STORY: CHANGING PERCEPTIONS OF THE LEWIS AND CLARK JOURNALS by Deborah Malony Dukes Approved by the Master’s Thesis Committee: Delores McBroome, Major Professor Date Gayle Olson-Raymer, Committee Member Date Rodney Sievers, Committee Member Date Delores McBroome, Graduate Coordinator Date Donna E. Schafer, Dean for Research and Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT The collective journals of the Lewis and Clark expedition have been objects of fascination and interpretation ever since the Corps of Discovery’s homecoming in 1806. Despite President Thomas Jefferson’s direction that Meriwether Lewis prepare the journals for publication, Lewis’ untimely death in 1809 left the editing of the expedition’s records – and much of the storytelling – to a series of writers and editors of varying interests, abilities and degrees of integrity. Understandably the several major editions and many other versions of the story have reflected the lives and times of the editors. For instance, ornithologist Elliott Coues was the first – 89 years after the fact – to acknowledge the expedition’s many scientific and ethnological observations. For their own purposes, successive generations of activists have appropriated iconic expedition members, emphasized or even invented anecdotes, and supposed discoveries. Scholarly and public interest in the journals has peaked during this bicentennial period, as often happens around the times of major anniversaries of the expedition.

  • Mining, Keno, and the Law
    MINING, KENO, AND THE LAW The Tombstone Careers of Bob Winders, Charley Smith, And Fred Dodge, 1879-1888 By Robert F. Palmquist Published in the Journal of Arizona History, Vol. 24, Number 3, July-Sept 1997) 38, no. 2 (Summer 1197): pp 134-154, reprinted with permission of the author "MINING SUIT INVOLVING MILLIONS", trumpeted the headline of the June 26, 1909 Tombstone Prospector. The accompanying story declared that "perhaps the largest mining case ever filed in Arizona was instituted yesterday in the district court here." Dr. Thomas Winders, a thirty-seven-year-old San Francisco physician who had grown up in Tombstone, had filed the action against the Copper Queen Company on behalf of the estates of his father, Robert Jackways Winders, and stepfather, Origen Charles Smith. The lawsuit, the paper observed, "is one of a remarkable record and dates back to the early history of Bisbee and Tombstone". Ironically, this venture into "courtroom mining", in which the Winder-Smith heirs claimed $1,250,000 in damages, probably marked the closest that "Uncle Bob" Winders and "Hairlip[sic] Charley Smith ever approached to fortune. Although Smith and Winders never struck a bonanza, their decade of mining ventures in southern Arizona epitomizes the efforts of thousands of hopeful souls who swarmed the Arizona mining camps in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The Tombstone careers of Bob Winders, Charley Smith, and their friend, Fred J. Dodge, in mining, gambling, and law enforcement during the years 1879 to 1888, provide a glimpse of this period's workaday world in the Arizona boom towns.
