AFTER ONE HUNDRED YEARS.

For century the eyes of civilized
men have been centered upon the mouth
Of the lordly Columbia river and he has
known, instinctively, that some day it
would be the key OF vast and inereas-
ing empire; that sooner. or latter, it
would fall in line with the marts OF the
world and take its place among the
giant distributing points for the COM
merce of this continent. Such a destiny
Law plainly figured in the minds Of the
early settlers of the Northwest, and all
who have been familiar with the situa-
ton have marvelled for long years why
that destiny never materialized.
A few great minds have done more
than recognize it; they have moved to
to its exploitation, but death, circum-
stance, immense events. and powerful
influences, have warped them from the
task. and the supreme faculties and ap-
pointments for the expanding OF the
place have been negatived utterly; until,
at last. the master-mind Of modern
commercial progress, knowing its ex-
traordinary advantage and unqestioned
fitness for mighty depot, has spent
a score of millions in the effect to adapt
it to the indubitable, and invincibie,
end it was to serve in the scheme OF
human affairs

strategist, and indomitable builder OF
commercial channels, at last holds the

poses to put to use the long neglected

he has had the project in mind ma
