There wasn't anything left 10 do
but 20 uptown and find = spot for
lunch.
The section Of st. Joe facing the
river is very old. from all appear
anees. and one has to 60 through
a rather sordid section of town to
get to the main business section.
On one street are the produce
markets with their wierd smells
and cheap rooming houses and
questionable characters. On an
other is the colored section, and
there Ia no question about some OF
the characters. Every window Of
the first block is in possession Of
dusky ladies plying their ancient
trade. There Is no other way up
town to the main business section.
City Seems Busy
st. Joe, we found q city Of mar
row streets and CONGESTION, not
overly clean. but busy. In fact, IT
was the busiest city. from all APP
pearances, that we had seen.
At one time II had been the iarg-
est wholesaling city in the West,
and 1t still showed evidences Of its
past glories. Buildings were vacant
and there seemed to be a predomi-
nence Of Hebrew influence In the
business section, which meant that
1t was still q thriving business
center.
It il an old steamboat town and
there are still evidences Of numer-
Gus landings along the rather ex-
tensive waterfront.
Not far away from where we
we're moored 10 the first pony ex-
press barn, where that famous
service originated.
Needs Preservation
At present nothing IL being done
to preserve this famous site and,
with things as they are. II would
be better IL a monument marked
the spot. rather than the tumble
down old barn. II Is just an ordi-
nary shed one would stroll by with
out noticing, unless 1t was pointed
out, and inhabited by two old squat
ters who do little to enhance the
surroundings.
But something should be done.
either by the government or the
state or the historical societies.
For a few years the pony ex-
press was the only mail route
across this vast country. besides
being the epitome Of American ro-
nance, with its riders symbolizing
the courage of nj frontiers. We
have little doubt that something
viii be done-and soon.
II Is ironic that the house In
which an outlaw was murdered
should have, as 4 spot Of historical
interest to tourists. more appeal
than the spot where the pony ex-
press started, but 1t IL true.
Jesse II Inspired
The house in which Jesse James
was killed has been turned into 4
private museum. and. even though
admission is charged. 1t does ten
times the business Of the old barn.
In fact, due to adroit publicity. few
people know Of the start Of the
pony express, but turn directly TO
Jesse James murder house.
II Ia interesting. Of course. and
worth a visit. IL one has the time
and money. The very name of Jesse
James has. due to dime novels Of
years ago. a good deal Of giamor
connected with IT.
But. after all. he was nothing
but a smsll-timer compared TO
present-day bad men,
What chance would such . man
have against such shrewd
schemer as some Of the known
racketeers Of today. who hold up
