suspicion by the Canadians, who owed
allegiance to the fur company and
the form of government adopted was
wavering and weak and was almost
totally abandoned as the opposition of
the French settlers became more and
more pronounced. Blanchet resign
ed as chairman and as he was spirit
ual adviser of the Canadians his influ-
ence checked the growth of popular
government for the time.
"Wolf" Meetings.
Finally in 1S42 the wolves and
cougars became so troublesome in the
settlements that all the citizens fear
ing for their lives and the lives of
their stock. unanimously organizeo
wolf meetings for mutual protec-
ton, and out of these wolf meetings
at which bounties were offered for all
kinds OF wild animals infesting the
settlements, finally grew up again a
still stronger sentiment in favor OF
Independent government, and as the
sentiment spread and cemented the
settlers together, the idea was pro-
NOTED vigorously by the Americans
until. on May 2, 1S43, the mass meet
ing was held at Champoeg and Ore
gon territory was formally brought
into existence by vote of So to So
bare majority for the virgin state
that has become the mother of two
other great states in the Pacific

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-01-08
B|RTH Of civil government IN OREGON

toward forming an organized govern
ment in the present state OF Oregon
was taken at the funeral of Ewing
Young, in January. 1S41. when the
few friends who gathered to bury the
outcast settler passed a resolution ap-
pointing a legislative committee of
seven and fixing a date for the meet
ing OF the committee on February II
and IS. 1S41.
The duties of this committee were
to formulate laws covering the dis
possd of estates such as had been left
by Young, to pass laws for the gov
ernment OF the country south OF the
Columbia, to admit to the protection
of those laws all such citizens north
of the Columbia as were not under
contract with the fur company and to
nominate candidates for the several
offices of governor supreme Judg,
with probate powers to dispose of es-
tates, three justices of the peace,
three road commissioners, three con
stables, an attorney general, clerk
of the court and public recorder, a
treasurer and two keepers of the
! poor
The handful of pioneers who gath
cred to bury Ewing Young that day in
January, 1S41, laid the foundation for
civil government in Oregon by APP
pointing the following committee to
draft a code of laws for the govern
ment of the new state then in the
throes of birth: f, n. Blanchet, chair
man. Jason Lee, David Donpierre,
Gustavus Hines, Charlevon, Robert
| Moore, j. L. Parrish. Etenne Lucier
! (the first man ever to plow a furrow
in Willamette Valley and William
| Johnson.
Shrewd politics was used even in
that early day, for blythe appoint
mert of Blanchet as chairman the set
tiers hoped to pacify and win over
the Canadians who were known to be
favorable to the fur company.
First State Officers.
The committee met at the appoint
ed time and elected I. L. Babcock
the first supreme Judge of oregon,
and there being no code at hand a
resolution was unanimously passed
directing Justice Babcock to adminis-
ter the law in Oregon according to a
code of the state of New York in
possession of the settlers.
Thus oregon was first governed by
the laws of New York until form OF
civil law was adopted by the settlers
some time later
Owing to the bitterness of severa
rival factions among even the small
; number of settlers then in William
ette valley, the election of governo,
was deferred to another time. George
) W. LIE Breton was elected first clerl
, of courts, william johnson first higi
/ shiriff and Zavier Ladaroote, Pierr'
. Billique and william McCarty con
Q stables.
( Thus was launched the first sembl
s ance Of civilized government within
the present boundaries of the state o
oregon.
n But this step was looked upon will
