The EtIY-vater.

Jim Mchittriek was an old-timer, a
prospector and miner Of early days For
years he had lodged and fought shy OF
the eivilizing influences Of cities. confin-
ing himself to the mountains
At last when it became necessary to Sc
cure financial aid fer one OF his mining
schemes, he was forced to visit Helena
His friend put up at one Of the fashiona
able hostelries and there the miner sought
him. The urbane clerk gave jim in charge
of a bell boy who escorted him to the ele-
vator. Up went the mountaineer, and in
few moments he descended, his friend
not being in.
"say, mister" enquired our worthy,
s.what dye call that fixin'?'
"AIy dear SIR answered the clerk,
'that's an elevator
can elly-yayter," mused Jim. "Has it
got rope fast to it to hist with?''
Eyes sir, a wire rope"
.supposin' that rope broke" queried the
searcher after truth.
The clerk explained in detail the whole
arrangement of it, dilated upon the latest
improvements, air wells, compressed air
ETC., and supposed he had convinced his,
hearer of its perfect safety.
Jim looked at his informant with doubt
ful gaze and replied:
s:That's all right about pressed air an
sich, but for histing up an down, gimme

responsibility of purchasing a territory o
unknown but prodigious extent, and o.
pledging the credit of the government fol
a sum which, rated by the ability to pay
was larger than a similar pledge today fol
five hundred millions Of dollars.
The price agreed upon was eleven mil
lion, two hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars in six per cent United States bonds
the interest of which was made payable in
London, Amsterdam and Paris, and the
principal at the treasury at Washington.
In a separate treaty the United States
! agreed to pay twenty million francs ad-
ditional, to be applied by France to the
satisfaction Of certain claims owed to
American citizens. Thus the total cost Of
Louisiana was, in round numbers, fifteen
millions of dollars
No difficulty was experienced in putting
the United States in possession of the ter
ritory and of its chief emporium, New Or
leans. The French government has re
garded the possession of SO much conse-
quence, that Bernadotte, afterwards King
OF Sweden, was at one time, gazetted as
Captain General; and. some obstacles su-
per-vening, General Victor, afterwards
marshal OF France, was named in his stead.
But all these plans were brushed aside by
one stroke of Bonaparte's pen; and the
| ,c fny
circumstances, and the bold and colnpe-
tent craftsmanship of Jefferson, obtained a
territory larger in area than that which was
wrested from the British Crown by the
Revolutionary war.
The country thus acquired forms today,
the states Of Louisiana, Arkansas, Missou-
II, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska, Minnesota,
west of the Mississippi, Colorado north of
the Arkansas, besides the Indian Territory
and the territories of Dakota, Wyoming
and Montana. Texas was also included in
the transfer but Oregon was not. The
Louisiana purchase did not extend beyond
the main range Of the Rocky mountains,
and our title to that large area which is
included in the state of Oregon ani the
territories Of Washington and Idaho was
claimed first, by the right of original dis
covery of the Columbia river by an Anne
rlean navigator in 1892, second, by original
exploration in 1905; third by original set
tlement in 1910 by the company fitted out
by John Jacob Astor and lastly and
principally, by the transfer of the Spanish
title in 1919. Mr.. Blaine adds that it is
not probable that We should have been
able to maintain our title to Oregon if the
intervening country had uot been previ-
ously secured. He says that the acquisit-
ion of Louisiana brought incalculable
wealth, power, and prestige to the Union,
and must always be regarded as the mas
ter-s stroke OF policy which advanced the
United States from a comparatively feeble
nation, 10 a continual power Of assured |
strength and boundless promise. 1t was
to obtain q more accurate knowledge of |
this vast region called Louisiana, Of its to- |
biography and resources, that the expedi- |
tion. under Lewis and Clarke was fitted |
oat by president Jefferson.
