4Lt\A A. convention was called, a state constitution was prepared, and application was made for the admission of Colorado into the Union as a state in 1865. An enabling act was subsequently passed by both houses of Congress, but the bill was vetoed by President Andrew Johnson. In consequence, Colorado Territory was to have to wait 11 years for a change in its status. It could have been the 37th state, but it became the 38th. There was logic to President Johnson’s belief the territory was not ready for statehood. A geographical reference work of the time stated, “Colorado has had a brief history. In 1857 a party of civilized Cherokees made the first organ-
ized attempt to explore it, but were driven back by the roving tribe* at Indians. In 1858, • company of prospectors from Lawrence, Ksitsss. reported discovery of gold In the valley near the base of Pike's Peak. Ibis discovery brought a general rush of emigrants to Pike’s Peak, as the whole region was celled, during the next two years. “Many of the emigrants, not provided with food or the other necessary articles for so perilous end tedious a journey, perished on the way. But others followed and In 1860, the region had 85,000 inhabitants. The territory was organized in February 1881 under the name of Colorado.” Four years later, aa Indicated above, statehood was sought. There was an inconsistency In its rejection then, for Nevada, transformed from uninhabited wilderness to a booming territory in a decade by a gold discovery and “rush,” had been admitted to the Union in 1864 when the population, including Indians, was under 40,000. Many of those emigrants referred to above came directly to Colorado from Europe, attracted by prospects of striking it rich in ths gold diggings. Steamship and railroad companies combined to enable an emigrant to travel from Sweden, for example, to Colorado for 864.75!
