A Tribute to Colonel IV. F. Cody.
(By John E. Evans.)
Sunday evening an informal recep
tion was tendered Col. W. F. Cody at
tho Elks homo by tho B. P. 0. E., of
which ho Is a member. Many charactor
sketches of tho pioneer days wero told
and Incidents of tho early settlement
of plains nnd mountain -related. Stories
of the days of tho pony express, of
freighting, nnd emigrant travol
through a hostile Indian country,
brought to our minds in a vivid way,
the hardships and daring deeds of the
pioneer.
Western Nebraska owes Col. Cody
much. Every homo on our vast plains
is n i ado secure and peaceful by the sa
gacity, tho courage and the endurance
of tho olllcors nnd mon who guarded
tho frontier and the foremost of these
Is Col. Cody. When Iip led the cav
alry command on that famous
seventy-mile ride, without rest or food,
and when challenged, met In deadly
combat the famous chief Yellow Hand,
he did not do It for contest, for gold or
for glory, but to prcvont a Junction of
tho Cheyenne braves with tho hordes
of Indians under command of Sitting
Bull, which meant a long, bloody and
dostructlvc war which would have loft
desolate honiqs In nil the country west
of tho Missouri rlvor.
Col. Cody was tho trusted friend,
counselor and guldo of General Shori
dnn, Miles, Crook, Carr nnd ninny
others. He had the confidence, good
will and esteem of men high In na
tional and state govornmont, and why?
Because of his honesty, Ills energy nnd
his ability to do great things.
His spacious home and large estate
at NorthPlatte were for years the grav
itating center for men who have, built
up tho west. In his varied career, ho
has hob-nobbed with tho royalty of tho
foremost nations of the world, has con
tested tho field with lords and drunk
tea with the ladles truly a man of
varied attainments nnd wonderful re
sou rco. .
In one of his many expeditions, ho
led a delegation of scientists into the
Big Horn Basin, and while the pro
fessors prosecuted search for tho bones
of tho mastodon, mineral deposits or
the bugs of the mountains, Col. Cody
saw the possibilities of the great Big
Horn Basin, with Its soil 21 feet deop;
rich nnd productive; he saw tho moun
tain strenms with which to irrigate,
and with foreslghted vision ho saw the
great basin filled with settlers, pros
perous and hnppy. Col. Cody never
halts at obstacles. Picking the location,
he built a $150,000 hotel at Cody; ho
induced tho railroad to build across
tho mountains and thru the basin; by
showing tho government tho scenic
route, It built tho finest wngon road In
tho world, 135 miles long, to tho east
ern cntraneo of tho Yellowstone Na
tional Park. He built the first canal to
Irrigate the soli In tho Big Horn Basin,
and no doubt, largely Influenced by
the construction of this canal, the
government has built a $3,000,000
dam ncross the Soshon river, Creating
a greater power thnn the Nlnrgara and
bringing the water into tho rich pro
ductive soil, that he will yet sec blos
som like tho rose.
From eastern Kansas, through Ne
braska, Colorado and now In the heart
of Wyoming, Col. Cody has blazed a
trail, hns bullded monuments that will
stand as tcstlmonals of his sagacity,
his onorgy, his liberality and his hon
esty, " Tho members of tho Elks and the
many friends of his early lire in North
Plntto are always glad to welcome Col.
Cody to this city, which for so many
years was his home.
