BY 7. T. MAXEY
Western Newspaper Union.

A TOP TOWN HILL in Province
"A town, Massachusetts, looking out
over the restless sea from the great
arm which that state filings out into
it, stands a great and impressive
monument of extraordinary beauty
and great dignity.
This monument, one of the talleSt
on this continent, commentaries the
anchoring of the Pilgrims i'll the his
toric MayfloWer in the Year 1920, their
adoption of the first charter of a dem
ocratic government in the history of
the world, the birth of the first white
child born in New England and the
whole chain of happenings which pre-
coded the settlement at Plymouth.
Built entirely of Maine granite,
the construction supervised by the En-
cheering Department of the United
States Army, this structure rests upon
a siXty-foot-square foundation, is
2S feet square at the base, approx
mately 252 feet high and the site is
about 100feet above the tides. The an
chitecture is of the Italian Renaissance
order, the design having been copied
from the tower Of Tore del Mangia
at Siena, Italy.
The site was provided by Province
town; the cost of the monument was
betrayed by a joint fund contributed
by Congress, the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, the town Of Province
town and individuals in all parts of
the country. D~edicatory exercises
were held on August 9TH, 1910, the
President of the United States being
in attendance.
This staunch and magnificent com
m]emorative structure, standing in
silent triumph, is typical of the re
lance and love of freedom which
characterized this little band in their
battle with the elements and fate and
of their descendants in all parts of
the world.

THE NATURAL BRIDGES OF
UTAH
By T. T. MAXEY
q. Western Newspaper Union.

II ORTY-FIVE miles north of Bluff,
L in Southwestern Utah, within a
space of about five miles. are three
natural bridges which are understood
TO be the largest of their kind in
existence.
Named Sipapu (Gate Of Heaven),
Kachima Guardian Spirit and OWa-
chomo Crock Mound). these bridges
were discovered IN 1895. The three
constitute a National monument, being
so proclaimed by Presidential an
uouncement in 1908.
The largest of the three has an eX-
IRENE height of 222 feet and is 65
feet thick at the top of the arch,
which is % feet wide. 1t has a span
of 261 feet. the height of the span
being 157 feet.
One has but TO fix those figures in
his mind to gain a fair idea of the
immensely of these wonders which
Nature fashioned from the lofty walls
of White canyon.
Near the monument are some caves
and ruins which are believed to have
been the homes of a prhistOric race
which inhabited this section.
These bridges are best reached by
stage or team from the railroad sta
ton at Thompson, Utah, to Monticello,
thence by pack-hOrse-a journey
through a strange, deserted-looking,
but interesting land.

WS%<sW teen states.
~ December Z,
1887, it officially adopted the Con.
stitutiOn and thus was made a
beginning of u present Federal
government. According to the
seventh article of the COnstitu-
ton, however, it was necessary
for nine states to ratify it before
it actually came into force. So
it was not until the following
June, by which time eight other
states had accepted the Consti-
tuition, that the United States of
America actually came into be-
ing.
The early history of Delaware
was a varied one. 1t started in
1888 when a small party of
Swedes settled at the mouth of
the Delaware river and called 1t
New Sweden. In 1865, Peter
Stuyvesant, the governor of the
Dutch colony of New Neither
lands, annexed this territory. But
it did not long remain Dutch,
for in 1864 the English took
possession. When Pennsylvania
was decided to William Penn he
desired access to the seacoast
and at his urgent request Della
ware was transferred to PENIS
proprietorship. From the be-
StIlIllhS VI Tic Cl6hICcnlh SCn-
fury, however, Delaware had it's
separate legislature, and at the
time of the Revolution it be-
came an Independent state.
Delaware is next to the small
est of our states. having an area
of only 2,370 square miles. Its
participation in presidential cleo
tions is limited to three electors.
This is arranged according to
population. Each state is entitled
to the same number of presiden-
tial electors as 1t has members
of congress, so the influence of
the different states in voting for
the President varies from Della
wares three electors to New
York's 45.
AS to the derivation Of the
name Delaware, this was appro-
priately given to the state from
the river, which in turn was
named after the bay and the bay
was called Delaware in honor of
Lord Delaware, who was COVER
nor of the Virginia colony in
1910.

those lOtry mountains which sep
arate the State from California.
Most of the history of the state
centers in this Western section,
near the Sierras, and it is here
that all of Nevada's principal
cities are located.
The first white man to cross
the present state was the Fran
ciscan Monk, Father Cares, who
made his way across the deserts
to California in 1775. In 1923
Peter S. Ogden of the HudsOn's
Bay company discovered the
Humboldt river, which is some
times called Ogden river after
him.
The next memorable trip
!. across the state was that by
. Fremont in 1913, when he went
: to California at the time of the
: outbreak of the Mexican a
: 1t was this war which in 1S4S
: resulted in Mexico ceding a large
: area to the United States, OF
: which Nevada was a part. When
. this was organized into terri
: tories, the Territory of Utah eX-
. tended to California. The West
: ern inhabitants, however, were
i: left to their own resources and
: accordingly organized their own
. government. Resenting the at
: titude of Utah they petitioned
: to be annexed to California.
: In 1859 the ComstOck lode
: was discovered and Nevada had
: its own mining boom. Popula-
: ton Immediately grew by leaps
: and bounds and in 1861 Nevada
: was formed into a separate ter
: ritory. Later, portions of Utah
: were added and the lower part
: of the state was taken from Ari-
: iona. Petitions for statehood
: we're made but it vas not until
. 1864 that Nevada became the
thirty-sixth state of the Union.
Though Nevada ranks sixth
: in size with its ares of 11O,690
: square miles, it has the smallest
: population of any of the AZ
. states. Between 1900 and 1900
: there was a marked decrease in
d. the population due to the falling
