PRELIMINARY BIBLIOGRAPHY OF COLORADO HISTORY I07 



ary, 1880, Vol. LX, pp. 380-397, is of similar character. More serious 

 than any of these is an article on "Colorado" which appeared in the 

 Fortnightly Review for January, 1880, Vol. XXXIII, o. s., pp. 1 19-129, 

 over the name of J. W. Barclay. Here, prepared for an EngHsh public, 

 is an account of the conditions prevaiUng throughout the state, with 

 special and conservative reference to the possibilities of the state in 

 mining, agriculture, and grazing; while the appeal of the mountains to 

 the hunter and sportsman is sounded by the Earl of Dunraven in the 

 Nineteenth Century for September, 1880, Vol. VIII, pp. 445-457, with 

 the title "A Colorado Sketch." 



The silver interests are not the only ones which attracted the visitor 

 about 1880. A. A. Hayes described "The Cattle Ranches of Colo- 

 rado" in Harper^ s Magazine for November, 1879, Vol. LIX, pp. 877- 

 895. The grazing possibilities of the Arkansas valley are exploited 

 in this paper, while its general argument is carried a step further 

 by the sape author in Harper's for January, 1880. Vol. LX, pp. 193- 

 210, with the similar title, "Shepherds of Colorado," and his "Vaca- 

 tion Aspects of Colorado" found place in the issue for May, Vol. LX, 

 pp. 542-556. The same year which saw these articles of Hayes saw 

 further papers from Mrs. Jackson, who journeyed out from her home 

 in Colorado Springs to various points of interest, and continued to 

 write Httle discursive sketches of camps and scenery and people. Her 

 "A New Anvil Chorus," in Scribner's Monthly for January, 1878, 

 Vol. XV, pp. 386-395, tells of a visit to Fort Garland and the San Juan 

 valley, of racial types and railway construction; "Little Rose and 

 the House of the Snowy Range," in the same monthly for May, 1878, 

 Vol. XVI, pp. 55-58, carries her to the Sangre di Cristo range and 

 the Wet Mountain valley; and finally she contributed to the Atlantic, 

 in December, 1883, Vol. LII, pp. 753-762, an account of her trip to 

 Crested Butte and the Gunnison fields of 1880, with the title "O-Be- 

 Joyful Creek and Poverty Gulch." 



Parallel to the mining interest of the Leadville boom came a desire 

 to explore the lands of the southwestern part of Colorado, and a demand 

 that the Ute Indians be removed from the state by the federal gov- 

 ernment. The Secretary of War replied to a resolution of the House
