( American pioneering, we can see
results of this instinct for poli
tics. When the 19'ers found no or
pnized community, they made their
-n law. When the mining boom
settled on Colorado, law3 concerning
claims were indefinite and insuffi
cient. There evolved from those
accepted
settlers the basis of the
mining law of todya.
"The pioneer puts his mark on
every community which he organ
izes. We see the mark of the Bap
tist in Roger Williams' colony of
Rhode Island, the mark of the Knick
erbocker in New York, of the Freo
Soiler in Kansas, and of the 49er in
California. Above them nil we see
the mark of the pioneer which is left
upon our land.
