The Story of
Our States
b. JONATHAN BRACE
XXxV.-W. VIRGINIA
!! ! ! !. : !. !. !: !
A& L. 4 VA plies, West
ESl%$H. IA Virginia was
Enl&fkk3 NsI originally Il
NN6SxNS portion Of
NS~<NZ Virginia, the
%SsMs Old Dominion
Colony. While its history is nat
urally yoked up with that of the
Mother State, there are many
points In which the two sections
Of Virginia were divergent and
1t was for this reason that West
Virginia finally became q sepa-
rate state.
The first white man who prob
ably penetrated the wilderness
of this Western region was John
Laderer, a German surgeon, who
went on a tour of exploration in
. 1869. In the same year, La Sale
sailed up the Ohio and landed
ut several points in the present
state. There was little coloniza-
tiOn until 1882, when Scotch and
Irish adventures began to fill
Western Virginia. They were
encouraged but little. and, I'm
fact, the King in 1888 declared
that this part Of the colony was
Indian country and could not
rightfully be settled. Coloniza-
ton continued, however, and bit
ter warfare was waged against
the Indians and the French who
had come down from the North.
In 1774 the battle Of Pt. Pleasant
was fought, which was one Of
the bloodiest of Indian conflicts.
The backwoodsmen who set
tied in the Western part of Vir-
ginia were entirely different
types Of men from the wealthy
slave owners along the coast.
Jealousies between the two Sec
lions arose and the Western
countries felt great dissatisfac-
tion at the way Virginia was
governing them. The most
marked point Of disagreement
was over the slavery question,
and 1t was because of this that,
when Virginia seeded from the
i: Union In 1851, West Virginia
took matters in its own hands.
Delegates met at Wheeling, drew
: up separate constitution, and
; declared their independence.
!: Their application for admission
! into the Union was accepted by
!! Lincoln, and in 1858 West Vir-
; ginia became the thirty-flfth
!; state.
F.; 1t Is often called the "Pan-
handle State" on account Of its
; shape. Its area is PATIO square
miles, and it has eight presiden-
tial electors.

gets suspicious, and the third time
everybody guesses it's about time to

10 e9lSM y is the
l81 yer it sur
passes all other States, produc-
ing about one-third of the total
output of the entire country. In
fact, its real history starts in
1858, when gold was first dis
covered.
Prior to that time there had
been but little settling in this
region. Spanish explorers had
traversed the country in the lat
ter part of the Eighteenth CEN
fury, and laid claim to it. AS a
part of the Louisiana Purchase
it came into the possession of
the United States in 1903. Off
GERS of the United States army
were sent out to explore this
wilderness among whom were
Lieutenant Pike in 1905, and 1t
was after him that Pixies Peak
was named. In 1919 Colonel
Long made extensive explora-
lions and he was followed In
1912 by Fremont, whose activi-
ties in the Mexican war brought
him into much prominence. At
the close of the Mexican war,
Mexico coded her rights to this
territory to the United States.
but it was considered barren
waste and unattractive for set
tiers.
Then in 1853 came the dis
covery of gold in the bed of Dry
Creek, few miles south Of
where Denver now stands. The
following spring tens Of thou
sands Of men fl0cked into what
was then called the Pixies Peak
country. In 1859 Denver became
a town of one thousand inhabl-
tants, and by the next year had
grown into big city with news
papers, theaters, and a govern
ment mint.
In 1861 the Territory of Col
orado was created and in 1876
Colorado was admitted as the
thirty-eighth state of the Union.
Its area L. 1OS.94S square miles
and its population entities the
state to six presidential cleo
tors.
The name is taken from the
Colorado river, and Is a Spanish.

Colorado is often called the
Centennial State, as 1t was adj
mitted to the Union just one
hundred years after the Declara-
ton OF Independence.

hl: NsssSs::A discovery Of
\N..%Ssass!I/ our Pacific
E&:SM// coast. In
>a2G> 1913 Ferrelo
POSSIBLY sailed as far North as
the Oregon boundary. In 1879
Sir Francis Drake explored for
England the coast considerably
north of this. Other Spaniards
made further explorations and
Captain Cook, the English navi-
gator, in 1888 landed at Nootka
Sound and gave 1t its name.
Thus both Spain and England
hid claim to this region.
The American rights to this
territory were based on the dis
covery of the Columbia river in
1902 by Captain Robert Gray,
who sailed from Boston in the
ship Columbia to open up fur
trade. Many American fur
traders followed and in 1911
John Jacob Astor, the head Of
the Pacific Fur company, estab-
lished a settlement called Aston
ia at the mouth of the Columbia.
The real opening of the North
west was the result Of the fam
GUS Lewis and Clark expedi-
tion.
BY 1S43 a decided flow Of
emigrants from the East trav-
elled over the Oregon Trail from
Kansas City to the Columbia
river, and thus into Oregon. The
trip over this route occupied
about three months and the set
tiers generally travelled in large
parties to Withstand any pos
sible attacks from Indians,
American settlers became so
numerous that the United States
actively laid claim to this re-
gion. Spain had been forced to
withdraw any rights she may
have had when Florida was
ceded In 1919. This left Eng
land and America quarrelling
over this section Of the country.
Final settlement. with definite
boundaries between the United
States and Canada. was made
in 1916.
The Oregon territory vas
formed in 184s and tie state Of
Oregon was taken into the I'm
Ion IN 1859 with an area Of o.
500 square miles.

sMtk which even
encircles the origin Of the name.
About 1920 a Spanish love story
was published in which there
was an imaginary island In the
Far East called California. Some
fifteen years later a party OF
Spanish adventures came upon
the peninsula which we now call
Lower California. Believing that
they had discovered a romantic
island similar to the one In the
novel, they called 1t California.
Later on, the territory to the
north became known as Alta
California or high California
and when 1t became a state, 1t
was accordingly called Cali
fornia. The first settlers were
the Franciscan monks who came
up from Mexico and established
missions, and many are the leg
ends woven around these pioneer
Padres. There shortly grew up
Mexican settlements around the
missions which the wonderful
climate and fertile soil pros
pered.

for the presidency. occupied Cal
ifornia. When peace was made
in 1S4S, California became Uni
ted States territory. That same
year gold was discovered in the
Sacramento Valley and the rush
of people to California began.
The population grew SO rapidly
that in 1850 California was ad-
mitted as the thirty-first state
of the Union. With lis 158,297
