A Prosperous Pioneer and Wyoming's New Senator
A profile of Asahi Collins Beckwith, newly appointed U S senator from Wyoming, noted as one of the oldest pioneers with a life spanning from Missouri River country at age 15 to Cheyenne and Granston ventures. He built the first house, ran a grocery, and grew wealth through land, coal, timber, and cattle with a famed trotting horse line. Beckwith, a New York native, served on the World’s Fair commission and Cheyenne’s first council, and he died pursuing frontier life amid Indian troubles. He was a Democrat with deep regional ties and a substantial Civil War era pioneer record.
