Chapter Nine:
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE PONY EXPRESS NATIONAL HISTORIC TRAIL AND RECOMMENDATIONS INTRODUCTION
The Pony Express was officially discontinued on October 26, 1861, with the completion of the overland telegraph line. During the eighteen months of operation, it made 308 rides each way, covering a distance of 616,000 miles, and carrying approximately 35,000 pieces of mail, with a good percentage of the mail (67 percent) going east from San Francisco and Sacramento; [
ANNIVERSARIES After its demise, people did not forget about the Pony Express, but its heroic history was resurrected from the annals of history as a significant page in transportation and communication history. Though William F. (Buffalo Bill) Cody demonstrated the Pony Express in his Wild West shows in the 1880s, recognition of the significance of the Pony Express came at the turn of the century after the publication of Frederick Jackson Turner's famous essay "The Significance of the Frontier in American History" in 1893. Thereafter, fearing the consequences of the frontier closing on our American character, we as a nation, drew strength from our frontier heritage and rise of the American West. In this quest for a usable past, the Pony Express became a usable American Western icon, symbolizing America's strength, work ethic, entrepreneurship, and individual heroism. American companies soon capitalized on the Pony Express to make correlations between it and their products. For example, one nationwide credit card company offered its customers the opportunity to purchase a collection of United States historic coins, one coin displaying a Pony Express rider. [

contributed by Lu Hickey No Man's Land", the "Neutral Strip". or Public Lands, as it was called variously, was a political and geographic paradox. It was an ungoverned rectangle of land bordered by Kansas on the north, Texas on the south and New Mexico on the west, an the Cherokee Strip on the east. The region was not accepted part of any state bordering it, yet it had been formed by the time of the eariliest surey of the Beaver River region, Wolf Creek and the Edith Salt Plain in 1857. Its history is an interesting one and quite unique. Since the lawmen were afraid to enter into the parameter of the Neutral Strip, of course, that is where all the hooligans and criminals were living. That was their :"Safe Haven" knowing no US Marshall or bounty hunter dared trespass. Upon the conclusion of the Mexican War in 1848, the northern and westen boundaries of Texas had not yet been settled with Mexico. Texas claimed that her border extended west to the Rio Grande river. And she manifested a will to enforce her claims by arms. In the mean while, the newly acquired territory from Mexico gave rise to renewed and angry agitation on the slavery question which was then before Congress. To insure a complete settlement of all questions growing out of the imperialist acquistion of territory that was United States had made from northern boundary a line on the 36th degree latitude and the 32 degree latitude west to the 103rd degree of longitude and from there, the 32nd degree and west to the Rio Grande River. In consideration of this, the United States paid Texas the sum of ten million dollars..It became Public Lands or No Man's Land because no state wanted it.

The Pony Express Rides Into History (Editor's note: This article was written and published by the United States Postal Service in 1970.) A little more than a hundred years ago, a courageous band of young men enlisted in an incredible enterprise to carry mail by pony relays through 2,000 miles of savage wilderness in frontier America between St. Joseph, Mo., and Sacramento, Calif.
They took an oath on the Bible of honesty and devotion to duty and went on, despite the daily threat of death, to carry the mail 616,000 milesequal to 24 times around the earthduring the 18 months the enterprise oper-ated. In doing so, they wrote the unforgettable chapter of "The Pony Express" into American History.
The Pony Express was a horse relay mail carrying system operating in both directions between Missouri and California. The service carried the mail in 10 days from St. Joseph to Sacramento, and cut in half the time required to send mail by coach. It continued for 18 months, from April 1860 until October 1861, when the cross-country telegraph was completed.

Fossil Horses and the Great American Interchange
It is a fact of nature that isolation of organisms results in unique and interesting evolutionary histories. For example, the mammals currently living on the island continent of Australia combine a unique ancestry of monotremes and marsupials that have evolved into ecological niches similar to placentals in the northern hemisphere. Yet, even though they have exploited the range of herbivorous and carnivorous habits of their northern counterparts, they nevertheless have many unique characteristics, for example, their mode of reproduction. Although North, Central, and South America are today connected by dry land, during most of the Cenozoic Era from about 60 to 3 million years ago, the Isthmus of Panama did not exist and South America drifted as an island continent, much like Australia is doing today. Consequently, South America evolved an isolated biota, including indigenous mammals unlike those found elsewhere at the same period of time. South American pouched marsupials occupied the carnivorous niches of their northern hemisphere placental counterparts, the former perhaps most strikingly exemplified by the Miocene saber-toothed possum Thalacosmilus , which was only a very distant mammalian relative of the familiar Pleistocene saber-toothed cat Smilodon from North America. In addition to mammalian carnivores, other groups, such as large flightless birds and land-adapted crocodilians, also were the top carnivores in terrestrial ecosystems during much of the Cenozoic. Several stocks of South American mammals, including the litopterns and notoungulates, independently evolved herbivorous habits. During the Miocene many groups of South American notoungulates evolved very high-crowned teeth, presumably for feeding on abrasive plant foods like grasses, independent of horses in North America during the Miocene. Some of the litopterns evolved a simplified limb with only a single functional digit (see
