“Tis a Privilege to Live in Colorado” was a slogan that once adorned a prominent building in downtown Denver, and many of us, whether a native or a transplant, would nod our heads in agreement with that sentiment. But while it is a privilege to live in Colorado, it is not always easy. The Homestead Act opened up the lands of the West to private ownership in 1862. With good intentions, President Lincoln and the Act’s supporters envisioned that each new settler would receive a “quarter section” of land. As Bernard DeVoto wrote in his introduction to “Beyond the Hundredth Meridian,” “160 acres were the ideal family-sized farm, the basis of a yeoman democracy, the buttress of our liberties, and the cornerstone of our economy.” But as DeVoto also observed — “Well, there isn’t much rain out west” — the challenges were inescapable from the beginning.
