Mr.. Henry Meinert is afflicted
with govt in one foot but he can
sit on the big front veranda of his
home on the hill on Roswell street
and enjoy the breeze coming through
the oaks, magnolias, sycamores and
other trees on the extensive lawn.
Then he can see the distant noun
tainS and the tower of the court
house above the trees as proof that a
town lies between. He reads and
rests and appreciates his comfortable
and beautiful home and only a few
people know that he can arrange a
bouquet quite as deftly as his wife
can and he loves roses with all his
heart. They have been his comfort
ers in sorrow and companions in
days of happiness.
A fine bunch of roses came our
way one morning last week and
there was nothing big enough in
1.-The shop" to hold them except
galvanized iron sprinkling pot which
was not worthy of a place on our
table in Herbert's opinion. He is a
boy who reads and thinks and does
everything thoroughly and accord
ing to Instructions. There was a big
brown bottle in which lithia water
comes; so Herbert saturated string
in the wood alcohol, which is used
to light the gasoline burner under
the linotype's metal pot, tied it
around near the neck OF the bottle
and set it on fire. In moment the
top of the bottle came off smoothly
and behold a very nice vase indeed,
holding half a gallon of water in
which the 'oses rejoiced.

which had furnished means Of trans

East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-09-21
The Last Steps the Formation of First Oregon Government


was more important political union
Of the people settled north and south
Of that river The settlers north Of
the Columbia constituted. for the
most part, those directly connected
with the Hudsons Bay Company and
in its employ-about two hundred in
number-and those who had been
brought into the country under the
direction Of the Company and who
recognized a certain measure Of au-
thority and control by its officials.
The Provisional Government could
scarcely hope to compel from these
people obedience TO its laws. 1t was
the better part Of valor ard wisdom
to secure from them also by peaceful
persuasion a recognition Of its au-
thority, to form with them a definite
union This last act in the making
Of the Provisional Government OF
Oregon was accomplished in August,
1S45, by formal agreement entered
into between the legislative body act
ing on behalf Of the people of the
Willamette Valley and the officials Of
the Hudson's Bay Company speaking
for the people to the north of the Co
lumbia.
On the side of the inhabitants Of
the willamette Valley. beyond which
the authority of the existing govern
ment could not be thought really to-
extend, there was a strong desire for
an understanding with the Hudson's
Bay Company that would secure it's
support Those that thought Of them
selves as subjects of Great Britain
were for the most part retired serv-
ants Of the company and accustomed
to look to II for direction. This is
shown BY the fact that they had
Joined the new organization at the be-
hest of Or. John Mclaughlin. its chief
official at Vancouver. This element
could not Immediately divorce itself
from a long habit of obedience and
subservience. To secure itself from
possible attack or submergence and
from encroachment on Its land by
the ever-swelling tide Of restless Am
orleans It had been persuaded to Join
with them in supporting a govern
ment, but by this act they were not
won away from allegiance to the COM
pany and would consider a union that
included that powerful organization a
better guarantee of their own secur-
ity
The second factor that made for
union from the side of the Provision
al government itself was the eeono-
mic union that really existed between
the Hudson's Bay Company and the
Willamette Valley The settlers Of
this region we're very largely depend
ent upon the company for the mer-
chandise thev needed and as pur-
chasers of such surplus agricultural
products as they had for sale. Dur
ing this year 1S45 the Willamette
Valley was expected to have 10000
bushels Of wheat to market.
Many of the Americans had re-
ceived assistance from the company,
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-09-21

There was manifest advantage 10
these settlers to have the company IN.
corporated with them in common
government. II would not seem such
an alien and hostile body attempting
&c crush out their very existence.
A third object OF union would be
found in the influence and control
maintained BY the Hudson's Bay Com
pany over the hostile Indians that
we're to some extent menace to the
Willamette settlement The company
traded widely with the Indians and
had secured a certain measure of in
Iuence over them II had shown no
disposition to turn these Indians
against the Americans, but Il was
manifestly to their interest to have
a positive influence exerted upon these
Indians to keep the peace. This de-
sirable object was more certain to be
secured if the company became a de-
finite part Of the organization respon-
sibIe for maintaining order in the Ore
gon territory. a
A fourth and perhaps the strongest
Of ali the motives leading the Provis-
ional Government to seek union with
the Hudson's Bay Company was that

BY Robert Carlton CLARK.

In a letter dated August 80, 1S45,
written by DR.. John Mclaughlin,
chief factor of Hudson's Bay Company
at Vancouver, he says: ave have
yielded to the wishes and requests Of
the respectable part OF the people in
this country OF British and American
origin by uniting with them in the
formation Of provisional and tenn
porary government having for its OBJ
iect the protection of life and prop
crty."
The act here described constitutes
the last step in the formation Of pro-
