Excerpt from On the Way to Iowa: An Address Delivered at Iowa City Iowa Before the State Historical Society of Iowa on May the Twenty-Fifth, Nineteen Hundred Ten The field within which this Association is to exercise its activities is, from the standpoint of physical geography, the most remarkable on the face of the earth. Stretching from the Allegha nies on the east fifteen hundred miles to the foot hills of the Rocky Mountains on the West and from the Gulf of Mexico four thousand miles northward to the Arctic Ocean, it presents a vast plain, unbroken by high mountain ranges, un marred by desert wastes, but diversified in its climate and its products, fertile beyond compari son, abounding in mineral wealth, watered by countless streams, and comprising the most mag nificent system of fresh water seas in the world. Toward this region the tide of world empire has been setting for three quarters of a century and is not even yet at its height. The financier may turn his eyes toward Wall Street or Thread needle Street, the student may plan his pilgrim age to Cambridge or Leipzig, the artist may long for the inspiration afforded by the Louvre or the galleries of Florence, but the teeming millions of the over-crowded places of the world, with hands restless to do and hearts ready to dare.
