THE denizens of the Eastern States of our glorious union are accustomed to regard the west as the regions of romance and adventure-a sort of American fairy land, whose people are ennobled by generous and chivalric sentiments, whose history abounds with thrilling adventures, startling incidents, and surprising changes-a land where cities spring up with a celerity which rivals the feats of Aladdin's palace-building Genius-and where fortunes are made with a facility only surpassed by the wonders of Aladdin's Lamp.
