To the Journal horse editor there
seems but one answer possible to the
question, Shall we celebrate the
centennial of the occupancy of Ore
gon and the settlement of the Astor
expedition at Astoria" and that is
YES.
For 1870 years we have celebrated
every year, and will continue to eel
ebrate indefinitely, 1t is hoped, the
gaining of Americas freedom from
foreign rule. 1t is right that we
should do so, heartily and enthusi-
asHcally. At the same time there
are other things that it is well to
note and honor in their passing, and
none of these events equal in imDor-
tance the settling of Astoria.
The original thirteen states con-
tained an area of 392,440 square
miles The area ceded by Great
Britain in the settlement was
much larger than this, but the extra
area was not what our grand-dads
were serapping for, and was "a mat
ter subsequent"
The United States has grown some
since then. We bought some from
Spain and more from France and
Texas came to us Of her own accord,
We purchased a small tract from
Mexico, and under the guise of war
and under the doctrine that "to the
victors belong the spoils" we be
nevolently assimilated" another large
tract from Mexico.
OF all the territory that we have
acquired the only area that came to
us by right of discovery and occu-
pancy was the Oregon Territory
the empire OF that Northwest, which
included Oregon, Washington, Idaho,
and parts of Montana and Wyoming,
in all about 100000 square miles, or
a territory three-fourths as large as
the original thirteen states.
Captain Robert Gray, in 1892 guild
ed his good ship, the Columbia across
the bar and into the mouth of the
Oregon" to which stream he gave
the name of his ship.
Nineteen years later, the little
party sent out by the wise old Hol
land fur trader, John Jacob Astor
located at what is now the town oi
Astoria. Gray found he mouth Of
the river hut Astor sprouted the firs
baby tooth in it.
1t was owing to this settlement
that the title to this vast area was de
cded to be in Uncle Sam. 1t is three
fourths as large as the origina
states, has at least two-thirds al
much population as the thirteen haC
