Jesuit mission in 1875. -Four years
later La Sale, the French explorer,
passed through the Great Lakes, land
ed at the Chicago river and pushed
on to the Illinois river, which he
named after the Indian tribes living
In that region. Here he built q fort
and sent his boat back to Montreal for
further supplies. When his vessel did
not return he started home on foot
and succeeded In finding his way to
Montreal through q thousand miles Of
tangled wilderness. He gathered to-
gether another expedition and re-
turned to the fort, which he had left
In charge Of his companion Tonty. The
tort be found in ruins, but finally sue
ceeded In locating and rescuing Tonty,
who had been driven out BY the Iro-
quois Indians.
This riverway to the mississippi be-
came one Of the leading avenues Of
communication between the French In
the North and Louisiana. French set.
tiers soon located here and established
the most friendly relations with the
Indians. In fact, though the Illinois
country was coded by France to Eng
land In 1868, the sentiment Of the In
dams and French together was SO
hostile that 1t was several years before
the territory could be occupied.
During the Revolution It was George
Rogers Clark and his expedition into
the territory north Of the Ohio which
captured Kaskaskia and drove the Eng
lish from this province. Various states
claimed rights to parts Of this terri
tory, but these were finally coded to
the federal government and In 1887
It was formed into the Northwest Ter
ritory.. This tract extended from
Pennsylvania to the Mississippi and
was eventually divided into Ohio, In
diana, Illinois and Michigan.
In 1918 Illinois was admitted as the
twenty-first state with an area OF &c.
'685 square miles. The state Is one Of
the most level In the country and is
often called the Prairie State. Politi-
cally Illinois is the most important
state in the Union next to New York
and Pennsylvania us 1t has twenty-nins
