Ethics of the Trail

Time works changes. The Oregon Trail was used by a
1 r 1 1 a.
.i,ioa m (iLnpiu who won me wesi ny nonesiy, learlessness, cour- rightly
age anil sincerity. Hie great majority of them were Christian ico- l"'1,v
pie, the I'.ible bein;r the chiif book carried in wa;;'on train.;. to lets. , ms,
Those of us today who are attempting to emulate the sniiil of ""
the trail by dress and actions are doing so with the most piot'omul ,,,'re !'.',:
rcsj:ect and what eirors we make tire due to ignorance with no M"l!l" (
intent to burlesque those grand people who SO years ago crossed
the plains on the trail.
In these days of Pullman cars and cushioned automobiles it is
finite natural for the ethics of the old trail to have become obsolete.
t is little wonder that the Observer mentioned Stage Driver Joe
Woods as a '.Skinner," when as a matter of fact the wool skin
ner" never was admitted lo the trail vocabulaiy. It came at, a
very much later date when horse logging began in the northwest
and thejlrivers of mules and horses in the timber were dubbed
"skinners."
In Oregon Trail days 110 more dignified position, save thai ol"
tho circuit riding preacher, was to be had than that of a success
ful stage driver. Following him came tho "teamster" who diove
freight teams.
The stage and the freight wagon were the means of transpor
tation and it was very natural for people to hold a high regard
for Die drivem. much as they respeel '.he conductors and engi-i
neers of today who run the passenger anfj freight trains, v- j
Of course the code of trail ethics was a long one and a re.rkv
one, but we mention this particular feature lo give the reader some ;
idea of how easily it is to get off wrong when using trail habits1
and costumes. j
