This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Public Archives of the State of Colorado This report on the archives of the State of Colorado covers the period since the admission of the State into the United States in 1876. N o attempt has been made to compile here a complete bibliography of the publications of the State, for that work is already in the competent hands of Mrs. Mary F. Miller, deputy librarian, who is preparing such a list for R. R. Howker's Catalogue of State Publications. But the attempt is made to describe the various instruments of administration in the State, and to give such an account of the public records created and preserved by them as may be of use to the historical student, present and to come. There is no general law in Colorado to provide for the preservation of the public records. This work is left entirely to the discretion of the respective officials of the State, and, as a result, in those offices whose daily work does not compel constant reference to the archives there is practically no knowledge of periods previous to the present administration, and little regard for the records of the past.

This book was released on 2018-02-11 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of the People, of the State of Colorado The character of the land - its fertility resources, loca tion and extent - determines the occupations of the people. The occupations of the people, together with their former training, determine the form of government for the State. A State with fertile soil and favorable climate, exten sive forests of timber, and vast stores of minerals, requires a form of government and special laws that will regulate agriculture, lumbering and mining. The special laws of a State containing a navigable river will probably pertain to commerce. The chief resources of Colorado are (1) fertile soil and (2) a great variety of minerals. These resources indicate the occupations of the people, and the occupations in turn indicate the Special character of the laws of the State.

Download or read book The City of Denver and State of Colorado Classic Reprint written by Andrew Morrison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City of Denver and State of Colorado Denver. The seasons indeed are well de fined; but they glide lightly by in winters whose keenest rigors are only enlivening and exhilarating, and summers serene and refresh ing with mellow gradations between of spring time and autumn completing a cycle character ized most by its prevalence of sunshine, and by light, dry and tonic properties of the air, that are a healing balm for many of the most serious ills the flesh is heir to. The savants declare that the atmosphere of the city has an electrical quality; it is a common saying in Denver, expressive of the zest it gives to life, that it is a luxury to breathe it; and in the breadth of view, and buoyant spirits of the people, that are the counterparts of the ample prospect and the cheering climate, it is easy to discover the inspiriting influence of environ ment upon the popular habits and character. The mean temperature or denver - disclosed by sixteen years signal service observations - is 49. The average of the highest readings of the thermometer, during those sixteen years, was 86; of the lowest, 7. By the same record the mean daily range was 24, the average annual rainfall of 15 inches, the average velocity of the wind an hour, six miles, and the average num ber of clear and fair weather days a year, 309. The average number of sunshiny days in Denver is 29 a month. From the 3oth of October, 1879, until February sth, 1881, fifteen months, the sun was not obscured all of any one day.

Download or read book A General Survey of Public High School Education in Colorado Classic Reprint written by William A. Cook and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-28 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A General Survey of Public High-School Education in Colorado As suggested above, the data for the survey has been collected principally by personal visits to the schools. While all possible time and care were taken in making the blanks, it soon developed that without a lengthy book of instructions they were full of opportunities for misunderstanding. The few schools that were surveyed by mail gave us reason for accepting with some reservation the validity of results obtained by surveys carried on by mail. Four men filled out blanks on the ground. One surveyed one small school, another surveyed the five Denver high schools, a third surveyed sixteen schools, the fourth covered eighty-two four-year schools and twelve of less than four years. Less than a dozen four-year schools were covered by mail and for the majority of them the reports are fragmentary. Many short-course schools could be reached only by mail. North-central-associa tion records and the reports in the offices of county superintendents have been utilized extensively.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Colorado, Vol. 2 Among the men whose careers reflect honor and credit upon the state that has honored them, none has risen to a position of higher distinction or left more indelibly his impress upon the history of the nation than did Senator Henry M. Teller. His ability to thoroughly grasp every point in all the great problems of the country, to look at any question from the broad standpoint of future needs as well as present opportunities, made him the peer of the ablest statesmen of America. Removing to the west with its boundless opportunities, he became one of the builders of the great western empire and the recognition of the important part which he was playing made him not only a leader of public thought and action in Colorado but in the nation as well.

This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 740 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Semi-Centennial History of the State of Colorado, Vol. 2 General william J. Palmer. (editorial Note.) Many men of strong minds, firm wills, gallant hearts and broad souls have been given to the building of the great West, but few have so finely combined the traits of hardihood and tenderness in the fashioning of the ideal gentleman and citizen as the late General William J. Palmer, who drew the last breath of his great, yet unassuming life, at beautiful Glen Eyrie, near Colorado Springs, on the 13th of March, 1909. After serving his country with fidelity, bravery and ability, and laying the foundation of the great rail way systems of Colorado which now furnish the outlets for its riches and people to the waiting sections of the West and South, he became the planter and husbandman of beautiful communities among the mountains. There in his homelike castle he lived for years, with mind active and clear, the soul of generosity, public spirit and broad comradeship. With physical strength gradually weakening, to the last he retained his hopeful spirit and, when but a wreck in body, his eye was still bright with the calm bravery of the typical soldier. The editor is thankful, beyond words, that the fine, dear old general was spared to verify the facts and express his ap preciation of the following review of his life - undoubtedly the last which has been thus honored. For this reason the text is retained as it was sub mitted to him. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Baker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02-06 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Colorado, Vol. 2 of 3: Prepared Under the Supervision of the State Historical and Natural History Society of Colorado The first successful colony on the neighboring Martinez grant, west of the Rio Grande, was established in 1854. The promoter of this colony was J osé Maria J aquez, who selected a site at Guadaloupe, on the Conejos River, in August of that year. While final preparations were being made to move to the new location in the autumn of 1854, the colonists were joined by Major Lafayette Head of Ser villeta.11 Head was a Missourian who had gone to Santa Fé in 1846 as a private under the command of Colonel Sterling Price. At the expiration of his term of service he decided to remain in New Mexico, where, as merchant and colonizer, he rose to a position of influence among his Mexican friends as is shown by his subsequent elections to the legislatures of New Mexico and Colorado. In spite of troubles with the Indians, the Conejos colonists retained their lands; the population of Conejos County in 1868 was estimated at mostly Mexicans.12 Apart from an occasional Indian scare, it was a quiet life that the Mexicans lived in the San Luis Valley. Their principal industry was grazing, and for theirflocks and herds there was an abundance of land and grass and water. In agriculture they followed the crude methods used by their fathers for generations before them. They were scarcely touched by the rushing currents of life in the outside world.

This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Amphibia and Reptilia of Colorado Comparatively little has been published concerning the reptiles and amphibians of Colorado. The limited literature consists of records of species scattered through a number of publications, some of which are inaccessible to the general public. Considerable unre corded material having accumulated, it seems opportune to publish this present report in order to place in the hands of naturalists and the general public such information as we have, bringing together into compact form the records heretofore published, and adding to them the unpublished material, so far as the same has come to our attention. Environmental Conditions. - Colorado has an area of about square miles, a latitudinal extent of about 276 miles and a longitudinal extent of about 375 miles. It is traversed from north to south, irregularly, by the continental divide - the backbone of the conti nent - its waters draining into two oceans. Its rock formations represent all the geological systems except possibly the Silurian. Though its average altitude is only approximately feet, it varies in altitude from less than feet to over feet above sea level, with consequent differences in climatic and other environmental conditions. The mean annual rainfall varies in a general way with altitude and topography, from less than 10 inches to 30 inches or more. Data as to temperatures in the larger and higher masses of mountains are as yet very meager, but it may be said that the temperature at elevations of from to feet drops to a point below freezing nightly even in summer time, while the mean temperature for the warmest months in some of the lower portions of the state is nearly eighty degrees. On the whole, the state is a cool one. The diurnal range of temperature is great over the entire state. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
