The above inscription appears on
the northwest corner of independence
Rock and has already been read by
thousands of tourists and travellers
whose course led them past one of
the most conspicuous and famous
natural landmarks in the United
States. This historic Rock is of pc
culiar interest to Carbon County peo-
pie, who will, in increasing numbers,
due to improved highways, make the
automobile journey into the wonder
lands of Wyoming, which lie at our
very doors.
To all such, whether they have
seen independence Rock already or
intend to make the trip to this Ore
gOn Trail shrine at some future date,
the following account will no doubt
prove interesting and Instructive:
A Famous Route
The Old Oregon Trail is said to
have been 1000 miles long. Doubt
less to most of the pioneers west
ward bound it seemed to be 10000
miles long. This pioneer route is
generally conceded to have begun at
Independence, Missouri. If we are
to judge by the stories of misfortunes
which occurred along this famous
route n the time it took to travel
its course we are certain to conclude
that it vas indeed a trail.
1t has been a question as to who
laid out the Oregon Trail and it
will undoubtedly remain unanswer-
ed. 1t seems to have been the natural
route and was undoubtedly selected
by the earliest explorers and trap
pers. These were later followed by
missionaries, then by Mormons, later
by seekers for gold in California,
and then later by the settlers bound
for Oregon.
In Mokler's History of Natrona
County. we find the following story
OF Independence Rock:
Independence Rock, the Register
of the Desert is probably the most
interesting landmark on the whole OF
the old Oregon Trail. 1t was 1t this
spot the weary pilgrims, who travel
ed by slow-going teams stopped to
rest and refresh themselves. 1t was
here that they found pure. fresh
water and an abundance Of feed for
their stock. 1t vas here that they
gathered about the campfires in the
evening and sang the old-time songs
while the young people danced In
the moonlight on the ~well-beaten
area. 1t was here that they cared
for their sick and buried their dead.
Isolated Mass
This isolated mass OF granite
stands out on the desert plains at
the foot Of the Rocky Mountain range
In the Sweetwater country. When
the %emigrants reached here from
Independence. they had travelled 83S
miles, and they considered that they
had covered half their journey. The

Casper to Rawlins follows the old
County road, in some places cross
ing and in some places paralleling
the old Oregon Trail.
The new. highway passes to the
west side OF the Rock where suitable
markers have been placed, and to
the south crosses the Sweetwater
over a new treated timber bridge,
replacing the County bridge mention
ed in Mokler's history.
Just adjacent to the rock at the
point where the tablet has been
placed is n of the standard markers
of the Oregon Trail, similar to a
number of other markers which have
been placed at various points along
the route.
The highway also passes near
Devils Gate, another object of his
toric note, thence through what has
been known for years as Muddy Gap,
and a few miles further to the south
west joins the Rawlins-Lander road.

Sweetwater river flows along the
southern base and, according to
many writer's and historians the old
Oregon Trail was on the north and
west sides of the Rock, where the
county road is now located, and the
old bridge was supposed to be just
east of where the new county bridge
was built in 1920. This was not the
case however. The old Oregon Trail
crossed the river about a mile east
of the Rock, where the Sweetwater
stage station was located, and pass
ed by the Rock ON the south side of
the river, and Of course, south of the
Rock.
From the very first the emigrants
made Independence Rock their camp
ing place and the custom of inscrib-
ing on it their names caused Father
DeSmet to call it the great register
of the desert. The Indians in the
early days came here to paint their
picture-writing on its smooth walls.
1t is said to have been named Rock
independence by a party of trap
pers who passed there early in the
nineteenth century. 1t is known that
Robert Stewart and his party pass
ed by here in November, 1912.
No Exact Records
There is nc record of the exact
date of the first white man to pass
this way, but Rev. Samuel Parker,
who was there on the 7th Of August
1885, says this rock takes 1t name
from the circumstances of a company
of fur traders ~suspending their jour
ney and here observing in due form
the anniversary of our national free
dom Captain Bonneville was here on
or about the 14th of July, 1882, for
he says: On the 18th Of July we
abandoned the main stream of the
Nebraska (now the Platte), which
was continually shouldered by rug
ged promontories, and making a bend
to the southwest for a couple of days,
part of the time over the plains of
loose sand, encamped on the 14th
on the banks of the Sweetwater, a
stream about twenty yards in breadth
and four or five feet deep, flowing
between low banks over sandy soil,
and forming one of the forks or
upper branches of the Nebraska. FIRE.
quently the plains were studded with
isolated blocks of rocks, sometimes
in the shape of a half globe, and
from 800 to 400 feet high. These
singular masses had occasionally a
very sublime appearance, rising from
the midst of a savage and lonely land
scape.'
Captain Bonneville was preceded
by Nathaniel Myth. who was there
during the month of May of the
same ydar. DR.. Marcus Whitman
and his bride. who were making
their wedding tour as missionaries to
the Indians on the Pacific coast, and
Rev. H. H. Spalding, and his young
wife, were at the rock in 1886. These
were the first white that
crossed the Rocky mountains, and
of course the first white to
set foot on Independence Rock.
Father DeSmet was here in 1910.
He writes: 1t is the first massive
rock of that famous chain which di-
vides North America, and which
travellers call the backbone of the
universe. 1t is the great register of
the desert; the names of all the
travellers who have passed by are
here to be read, written in coarse
characters

CRAZE FOR GLAND TREATMENT DENUDES
 INDIA OF MONKEYS

BOMBAY, March 1S.-Widespread indignation has been aroused among the natives of this part of India by the publication of the methods by which monkeys are being captured and shipped abroad for gland reju- venation purposes.
 It is alleged that within recent months the traffic in monkeys has reached enormous proportions, and that the condition under which the animals are conveyed to the sea for export is appalling.
 Investigations reveal that most of the orders come from Germany, Aus tria, British and American sources. Ostensibly the monkeys are for re- stocking the zoos, but the native press charges that in the majority of cases the animals find their way into the hands of rejuvenation eX perts and maintain that the worlds craze for rejuvenation is denuding India of her monkeys.

 Boys working their way through college often find it impossible to "step out'' because of the expenses" said one member, "and it has been proposed that in such cases it is only fair that the girl should stand half of the expenses"
 Another coed suggested that after girl had been stepped she should reciprocate by taking out the man and standing all the expenses. Some suggested that the coed should be satisfied with less expensive enter tainment from young men who are working their way through the uni versity.

LONDON, March 19.-England is in a hub-dub aroused lest the United States has already become the mon- ey master of the world.
 Reports that England is about to return to a gold standard have caus- ed a sudden commotion with out cries and warnings from many sourc- es that Great Britain will soon be under the heel of American finan- ciers, if she is not already so.
 The United States controls the worlds gold supply, and when Great Britain returns to the gold standard she will be under the control of those holding the strings of the worlds gold bags, it is argued The pro and con of this question is being bitter ly fought out in columns of English newspapers.
 An amazingly frank article printed in the Referee, Sunday newspaper has attracted some attention.
Seward daily gateway., 1925-03-19

At this point the co-eds rose to the mark that the men have miscon- ception as to the demands" made upon them; that the college girl does not expect expensive entertain ment when asked out and that the men often make monkeys of them selves by spending lavish sums just for effect.
 We train the girls wrong," said one male member. After graduation the fellow buys the ring and the furniture and the wife spends the balance"
 The members eventually decided to let existing conditions exist.
