Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mediumistic Experiences of John Brown, the Medium of the Rockies: With Introduction and Notes You speak of my good friend, John Brown, Sr. He is a 'dyed-in the-wool' Spiritualist. One of the oldest in the place. He has been a medium for years. Indeed, long before the Rochester raps, he was a trapper in the Rocky Mountains; and his fellow-trappers we! E about to kill him for a wizard. A spirit used to tell him everything about to happen. If I had the time I would write you an account of one of his mediumistic works in Los Angeles, which was of a most marvel ous character. Some of the evidences of it are now in the medical college in San Francisco. He is stopping at present, forty miles from town, or you would most likely have additional subscribers through his influence.

Section I.--The Power Of The Ballot. [From the Western Watchman.] [The following is from a pioneer in political progress, and namesake of "John Brown, of Pottawattamie." He is a man, too, of similar character, as to persistent adherence to the right under any and every discouragement and temptation, though less harsh and rugged than the hero of Harper's Ferry. It will be perceived that he has not yet viewed the ballot question in the light of recent investigations, but he will probably read with interest, the report of Cosgrave's Stockton lecture in our last issue, as well as other documents ou the subject that we shall place within his reach.--Ed. Watchman.] Your letter and Western Watchman papers reached me several days since, and I have been pondering over their contents. * * * The great labor question is daily nearing some end; but what that end will be 1 am unprepared to divine. So long as men vote for a master, they should be subservient to him. A.t the polls, man, under our form of government, has the right to demand redress for the 'wrongs done him; the poll is the key with which to unlock his fetters, and let his chains fall off. It seems to me, the remedy for all wrongs is in the hands of the voters, and so long as they sell their birth-right, they will be hampered by the consequence of their own doings. The laboring class is largely in the majority, and yet they do not send one friend to Congress; they vote for the banker and the bondholder, and thus place themselves in the jaws of the destroyer of themselves and the persecutors of their family. 1 spent much of my time and money in the Greenback party; and, to tell you the truth, I am nearly worn out and am tired trying to help men when they will not...

Download or read book Pueblo Hardscrabble Greenhorn written by Janet Lecompte and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 1980-11-01 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pueblo, Hardscrabble, and Greenhorn were among the very first white settlements in Colorado. In their time they were the most westerly settlements in American territory, and they attracted a lively and varied population of mavericks from more civilized parts of the world-from what became New Mexico to the south and from as far east as England. The inhabitants of these little walled towns thrived on the rigor and freedom of frontier life. Many were ex-trappers full already of frontier expertise. Others were enthusiastic neophytes happy to escape problems back home. They sought Mexican wives in Taos or Santa Fe or allied themselves with the native Indian tribes, or both. The fur trade and the illegal liquor trade with the Indians were at first the mainstays of their economy. As time went on they extended their activities to farming illegally on the land owned by the Indians and trading their crops and other trade articles. They enjoyed themselves hunting, gambling, trading, and with their women, freely mixing Spanish, Indian, and Anglo-American cultures in a community without laws or bigotry. This idyll was brought to a close by the Mexican War and the lure of the California Gold Rush of 1849. The expectation of a railroad on the Arkansas brought many of the settlers back, only to be scared away again by the massacre of Pueblo by the Utes in 1854 of which Mrs. Lecompte has reconstructed a very complete record. When the gold seekers rushed to Pikes Peak in 1858 and stayed to establish farms and towns, some of the pioneers of the early days returned with them, and shared their skills and knowledge to make possible the permanent settlements that resulted. Mrs. Lecompte has documented the history of the region from diaries, letters, and the reports of such distinguished passers-by as J. C. Fremont and Francis Parkman. The result is a complete and compelling account of a neglected part of American frontier life. It is illustrated with more than fifty photographs and contemporary drawings.
Download or read book Something in the Wind written by MaryJoy Martin and published by Pruett Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colorado has some great ghost stories, and this book contains spirits, spooks, and sprites that are a colorful lot of characters. MaryJoy Martin brings them vividly into focus as she describes the San Juans marvelous mix of cultures, from ancient Puebolans, migratory gold seekers to the hungry immigrants straight off the boat. Woof and warp, these tales weave a unique tapestry that matches the mystery and majesty of the mountains. The majority of the tales originated before the 1920s, most going back to the gold rush days and earlier.

Book excerpt: "'Judge' Howard Potter, one of the most respected and influential citizens of a suburban town outside of Philadelphia, lies dead after a long and wearying illness. He is survived by the five people who knew him best and whose lives were deeply influenced by him. . . .Through the thoughts and reminiscences of these five very different people Mr. Morris tells his story. . . . [His] writing is occasionally obscure but always absorbing. He does not, like so many writers, hover omnisciently over his characters. He prefers to project himself into their innermost and very human thoughts and emotions, leaving the reader to draw his own conclusions. . . . Mr. Morris writes with wit, taste, and refreshing originality."--William Murray, Saturday Review. "Mr. Morris is a master of the exact phrase, the homely illuminating detail, and it is no accident that he is an excellent photographer. . . . His writing is simple, but his method is as complete as his subject matter, so he uses the multiple flashback, the melting of past into present."--E.M. Scott, New York Herald-Tribune Book Review. "A thoroughly satisfying novel"--Commonweal. "A most rewarding book"--Kirkus. "His finest novel to date"--San Francisco Chronicle. "With this novel he has clearly, and for the first time, ascended into literature"--New York Times Book Review. One of the most distinguished American authors, Wright Morris (1910-1988) wrote thirty-three books including The Field of Vision, which won the National Book Award.

Download or read book Cheyennes and Horse Soldiers written by William Y. Chalfant and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In July 1857, the first major battle between the U.S. Army and the Cheyenne Indians took place in present-day northwest Kansas. The Cheyennes had formed a grand line of battle such as was never again seen in Plains Indians wars. But they had not seen sabres before, and when the cavalry charged, sabres drawn, they panicked. William Y. Chalfant re-creates the human dimensions of a battle that was as much a clash of cultures as it was a clash of the U.S. cavalry and Cheyenne warriors.
Download or read book Kit Carson and the Indians written by Thomas W. Dunlay and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Portrayed by past historians as the greatest guide and Indian fighter in the West, Kit Carson has become in recent years a historical pariah--a brutal murderer who betrayed the Navajos, and an unwitting dupe of American expansion, and a racist. Many historians now question both his reputation and his place in the pantheon of American heroes. Here we are urged to reconsider Carson yet again. Carson was a man of the nineteenth century, whose racial views and actions were much like those of his contemporaries.
