Charles Alden Seltzer
"One year in Wisconsin. Then to Columbus, Ohio, where after a time I worked at various enterprises, such as newsboy, telegraph messenger,
painter, carpenter and manager of the circulation of a newspaper. Spent the better part of five summer and some of the winters in
Union County, New Mexico.

I still try to make an occasional trip to the West. I like to go over the old ranges.
I do not like to have any one refer to Western stories as 'wild and woolly,' because, while I concede that the West was wild,
it never became woolly until the advent of the sheep -- and that was after I lived there.
I never saw a pair of sheep chaps; I never heard a cowhand call another 'cowboy,' 'cow-puncher' or 'waddie.' 'Hand,' or 'rider,'
or 'cowhand' was the radius of the terminology as applied to the regular ranch employee. 'Straw-boss,' 'wrangler,' 'buster,'
'range-boss' were others -- all understandable and universal in the Southwest.

My hobbies are hunting, fishing, trap shooting, pistol practice and politics. I have broken ninety-two out of a possible hundred clay targets.
In a pistol shoot in competition -- with a thirty-eight Colt -- at twenty yards I have made a ninety-one and a quarter per cent target.
Last November I rang the bell in North Olmstead politics by being elected mayor of the town -- and I am now serving my sentence... and by the end of my
two-year term I expect they will all join in chasing me out of town."
