brought the Oregon country under the rule of the
Republic.
Ledyard had served his country we'll, but ill-luck
pursued him to the end of his days. When he saw
that he could do nothing in France, John Jau Jones'
enthusiasm having cooled, he went back to London,
where TINS time he found backing anI finally sailed
But his ship was only few hours out OF port when
it was recalled by the British admiralty. The ex-
pedton suppressed and no explanation was
forthcoming. Then, financed by the same hackers
who had placed the ship at his disposal he resolved
to lead an expedition overland through Siberia to
the Behrng strait, purposng to travel down the
western North American coast. He went to Petro-
grad and had outftted and about ready to start
when, at the instance of the imperial Russian gov
ernment, he was arrested and deported to Poland,
the Russian officials insisting that the trip inn

who proposed to go with him. He finally made his
way back to London, led an expedition of explora-
lion into Africa, where he perished.
When Russia Was Casting covetous Eyes on Oregon
Country and California.
About this time Russian officials in Alaska were
looking with covetous eyes on the Oregon country
and California. In official report to his govern
ment, the Imperial Inspector Rezanof urged upon
Russia the Importance of founding Russian trading
pests the Columbia river with view to gaining
control of the fur trade He advised the sending of
armed force to the Columbia to drive the Boston
ians away. This accomplished" the report reads,
I'VE would gradually advance towards the south to
the port of San Francisco, attract population from
various localities and in ten years would be strong
enough to make of any turn of European politics
TO include the coast of California in the Russian pos
sessions" But after the success of the Lewis and

in this direction.

BY w. w. CHIEFLY.

~APTAIN JAMES Cook, the British navigator
who discovered the Sandwich (Hawaan)
~ Islands, was directly responsible for the dis
covery of the Columbia river by an American seaman
and also for the organization of the Lewis and Clark
overland expedition to the Pacific coast These were
two important historical happenings which helped
materially to extend the sovereignty of the United
States the rich Oregon country and make of the
young republic continental power These incidents
of international consequence, occurring within few
years of each other, at a time when Great Britain,
Spain and Russia seeking to establish foot
hold the North Pacific coast practically put the
United States in possession of Oregon and confirmed
her title to the northwest
Cook sailed from England in 1776, his purpose
being to seek the northwest passage, the mythical
waterway that maritime men of that day thought
existed His instructions were to land on the coast OF
New Albion, the ancient name for Oregon. In
March, 1878 he observed the mountains of Oregon.
Further north he sailed by the strait of Juan de Fuca
and wrote in his log his opinion that the story of
the strait myth. In Nootka sound he took
many furs. Sailing on, he sighted Mount St. Elias
passed through the strait separating Asia from
America, named Cape Prince of Wales, and then
forced account of ice, to turn back going to
the Hawaiian Islands, where, a few months later
he met his death at the hands of the islanders.
In the spring of 1879 his two ships in an attempt
to complete his work, sailed north practically
the same route. On the return voyage stop
made at Nootka where cargoeS of valuable furs were
acquired for practically nothing. Skins worth over
S100 were bought for 10 cents each in goods Cooks
ships then sailed for Canton, where the furs
changed for valuable silks, which were marketed in
England at a handsome profit.
LuckIess John Ledyard Who Brought to Boston
the Tale of Northern Wealth
In this cruise of Cook and his successors was
petty officer named John Ledyard, New Englander
of some education He was in England when the
expedition being organized and went along in
the spirit of adventure. He very much i'm
pressed with the fur wealth of the North Pacific. On
his journey he kept diary. This diary, said to be
the best record of this memorable cruise, taken
from Ledyard by British naval officers his dis
charge in England. Ledyard then returned TO BOs-
ton, where, in effort to raise money to equip a
ship to engage in the Oregon fur trade, he wrote a

maned at this anchorage for 10 days. and then sailed
about Is miles further up the river, went ashore and
took possession of the land in the name of the United
States of America, most appropriately christening
the river Columbia"
Captain Vancouver Missed Opportunity to Claim
Oregon Country for England.
A short time before Gray's discovery Captain Van
couver noted British sea captain, had arrived
in the North Pacific waters. He sent out by the
British admiralty to map the coast of North America
from 80 to 60 degrees, which comprised the coast
line of the Oregon country, and to endeavor to find
passage to the Atlantic. On April 27, only few
days before Gray's discovery, Captain Vancouver
passed the mouth of the Columbia river, which he
noted in his log inlet small river, not
cessble for vessels of burtnpn," and sailed OIL
north. y few weeks later when Vancouver was tod
of Grays important discovery, he realized that he
had missed the opportunity of establishing Great
BritainS claim TO the Oregon cClntry. He sent Lieu
tenant Rroughton to make a survey of the river.
Broughon sailed up the river for 100 miles, and
afterwards united with Vancouver in an effort to
Giscredit Gray, claiming that the American caprain
had not the river proper But this effort went
down before the weight of evidence that was pr
serted in the international debate of a generation
later. when Americas claim acknowledged by
the British
To return to the luckless Ledyard. After Amer-
can financers failed him ne went to London, where
he had no better success. Then he joumeyed to
Paris, where he met Captain John Paul Jones' the
famous American naval commander. The adventure
that Ledyard proposed appealed to Jones, who in
troduced him to Thomas jefferson then minister for
the United States to France. jefferson, a student

could establish claim to the Oregon country there

LECTURE BY C. R. POLLOCK
BROUGHT MANY TO ORANGE
HALL ON TUESDAY EVENING

Considerable interest was manifest
ed last evening in lecture delivered
by q. X. Pollock OF New YORK, VINO
spoke at $3.50 O'Clock in the Orange
hall on millions Now Living VIII
Never Die"
Advancing scriptural writing as
proof OF his contentious, Mr.. Pollock
declared that those VINO would live
until 1925, had every chance of es-
Gaping from the clutches of the grim
reaper-death.
Mr.. Pollock touched the hearts of
his audience by simple exposition OF
the principles OF brotherly love, de-
claring that at a not far distant date,
the strife and turmoil which I'LL the
lives OF the people throughout the
world today, would be no more, and
in its stead would come to reign pros
perity and abundance, an era OF good
will and love for all men, where the
passions of hatred would be stilled,
and the fountains of love would be
tapped in every human heart. COD"
he declared, will wipe away all tears
from the faces of men, and death will
be no more, neither will pain and the
ravages of disease come to torment
humanity, for only love will reign
supreme.
My contention that millions now
living will never die" declared Mr..
Pollock, lis substantiated by the writ
lngS OIL the scriptures, and the pro-
phesies made of old. 1t finds a ready
response in the hearts OF every one
Tor death is natural enemy of hui
mainly, and an unnatural condition
TO man. Death is the result of a curse :;
1t Is a sentence which is about to eX-
pire.
TO prove that millions now living
VIII never die" continued Mr.. Pollock,
i must first prove that the earth

not difficult il only we study the testi-
mony OF Jehovah, and our Lord Jesus.

TIGHTEN TRADE
BURDENS PLAN
SEC'Y HOOVER

New York. May 10.-New legislation
to remove the uncertainties regarding
trade association activities was sug-
gested by Secretary Hoover in an ad-
dress here today before the National
Manufacturers Association.
Without entering into legal formu-
lation," Mr.. Hoover said, MY sugges-
ton is that there should be MINOR
extension to the Clayton act to the
effect that interstate trade associa-
tons should be permitted to file with
some appropriate governmental
agency the plan of their operations
and the functions they propose to car
ry on. That upon approval OF such
of these functions as do not apparent
ly con,ravene the restraint OF trade
acts they may proceed with their op.
eratiOns.
IF upon complaint, however, either
Of individuals or the law officers OF
the government, that these functions
do restrain trade, then after hearing
and proof the right to continue these
particular functions shall be suspend.
ed, and If continued they shall be sub.
ject to prosecution. Also II 1t shall be
proved that they have extended their
activities beyond the functions in
their original proposals they shall be
subject to prosecution for restraint OF
trade violations.
Associations which do not wish to
secure this limited Interpretation OF
the law with its assistance to conf
dence should not be required to do 50.
they however, necessarily assure
Thorn salyas thp iOh Of ALTERNATING the
law with the risks such Interpretation
entails. These ideas would be map
plicable to consultations of capital
and would not propose that they
should. all who know the situation

1t seemed to be the concensus of
opinion that the conference would
not begin the election of bishops un-
til next week. In thai event, it was
said. the conference might be able to
adjourn before Saturday of next week.
One more matter of importance
scheduled to come up, it is said,
is whether the bishops of the church
shall continue to be elected for life
or whether they shall be chosen for
terms OF four or eight years. The
question is expected to precipit&tc
lively debate on the floor

Pill, ii Adam had never disOheyed, he
would have lived forever upon the
earth as Gen. 3:22 proves, but by dis
obedience, he and his race were CON
demned to death. They we're not con
demned for a few years nor for many
years, hut to death. Gen. 3:17-19.
Rom. 6:23. Only through the ransom
and sacrifice of Jesus Christ can the
race have hope in resurrection from
death. Our Lord Jesus came to seek
and to save that which was lost and
as surely as he saved it. he shall re-
turn it to the former owners. 4 hap
by earthly home was lost and hap
py perfect pair lost their lives These
both must be restored for if man does
not have the effects of the sentence
of death removed then the ransom
sacrifice is not a corresponding price
The nature and the effect of the
ransom sacrifice of Jesus Christ will
be just as far reaching and just rs
effective as the sentence Of death.
