His purse being light. he and the Younger brother
crossed the Alleghanies and went through Ohio
and Indiana, all the way on foot, until they
reached the Wabash river, which they descende ed
In canoe, and at last found themselves upon the
broad prairies Of Illinois. In this State Colonel
Baker took up the study Of the law in a reg ular
way, and soon made for himself a name, even At
the bar Of Springfield, where be met-sometimes
rs colleagues and sometimes a. adversaries-both
the deceased Douglas and President Lincoln.
Colonel Baker was representative In Congress
from Illinois during the years 1886 and ls47, and
was subsequently, senator for the new State of
Oregon. His military career shows that this In
not his frst campaign, for we find that In NAV.
1876, he was colonel of the fourth regiment of
twelve months Illinois volunteers In the Mexican
war, and commanded the brigade Of Gen. Shields
after his fall. He was well distinguished In the
battle Of Cerro Gordo. He received his discharge
In May, 1877 In military capacity he was not
again known until the present troubles com
menced, when at the monster meeting In Union
square he sscended the principal platform and
boldly announced that II he could get only few
followers he would a. boldly 90 forth and battle
for the Union. How the words Of the white
haired Senator told upon the loyal citizens of the
North time has already proven. He organized
the California regiment and led II to the aeld.
When offered brigadisr, shd even a major gen.
eralship ~ refused both, p1efersing to be- az the
head Of the regiment be had organized, ana, al
though setting In this battle a. a general, he was
simply the colonel Of the First California regi-
meas which started nom New york city.
