An introductory Statement 10 furnish
a Setting for the Incidents In the
log OF the Princess used by Profess
Hor Priestly to throw new light on
the Nootka Sound Affair Of 1888.
(From the Oregon Historical Society
Quarteriy.)
The eliminating events in the first
struggle for the possession Of the Ore
gon Country were staged in Nootka
Sound on the west coast of Vancouver
Island. In our busy age however. the
average reader OF the Quarterely with
ont Bancroft's Northwest Coast at
hand may not be sufficiently clear on
the details of the incidents out of
which the Nootka controversy arose
to get the benefit of the valuable
source material in the paper by Pro-
fessor Priestly on the Log OF the Prin-
cesa or diary of her commander. Jose
Martinez.
This Nootlxa Sound affair in which
representatives OF the Spanish and
English sovereigntes were rivals for
the possession of our northwest coast
was in a way the first act in this dra-
ma; the second act of which with its
more familiar complications was stag
ed.a quarter OF century later at Fort
Astoria some two hundred and fifty
miles to the south.
The joint arrangement closing the
Ncotka Sound dispute between Spain
ana England pertained primarily to
rights OF access TO and trade with the
natives of this coast region In the
next agreement. composing the second
international contention for the Ore
gon country as whole, Spain has re-
ceded TO the background and the Uit-
ed States had become a principal con-
tender with England. The issue now
affected the more substantial right of
occupation. The arrangement again
was on a joint basis. In the third and
settlement the situation
had. ripened TO the exclusive Ito have

ment OF the 18Th parallel as the boun-
dairy line between the allotted portions
of the claimants who had been devel-

ment- The incidents recorded in the
Log OF the Princess by one who had
the master role introduces us directly
to the first of the central series of dra-
matte situations in the early history
of Oregon.
One additional special feature of
progressive change in the developing
drama on this northwest coast should
be noted. In the first crisis of affairs
affecting this region and staged at
Nootka Sound, the participants had all
arrived on the scene in ships. In the
second crisis at Fort Astoria. came
overland. In the assembling for the
final scene out of which came the
terms of the treaty of 1916 it was
those who had trailed across the con-
tinent rather than those coming by
the sea route who controlled the out
come.

our Pacific northwest first came into
