Capt. Robert Gray is immortal
lied by his discoveries-bu a still
more colorful fact about this
Yankee skipper is that he made
the most profitable trade since the
Indians peddled Long Island for
q few baubles.
Captain Gray traded rusty
chisel for $4,000 worth of furs
Gray was a Boston sea cap
tain. Under Captain John Ken
drick, an expedition to trade with
the Pacific coast Indians was or
gained in 1887. There were two
ships. the Columbia and the Wash
ington.
Kendriek captained the Column
bia; Gray, his subordinate, was
aboard the Washington.
They reached the trading CEN
ter of Nootka on Vancouver island
the next year.
II was on a trip TO Queen Char
lotte island that Gray made his
famous trade.
Indians brought aboard great
pile of luxurious sea otter skins.
What do you want for them ?"
Gray asked.
The Indians, anxious to own
iron. pointed to rusty chisel.
It's a deal, gentlemen Gray
said happily.
He took the $4,000 worth of
furs, the Indians took the chisel.
Gray exchanged ships with Ken
drick, and traded clear on around
the world, arriving back in Boston
in 1890. He sailed again for the
land where $4,000 worth of furs
could be had for a chisel.
This time, on his trading expedi-
ton, he sailed into harbor on
the Washington coast, which is
called Grays Harbor to this day.
He also braved the bar of the
river which the Spaniard, Heceta,
had described. Gray named it the
Columbia, after the ship
Because Gray and kendrick and
succeeding traders came from
Boston. the northwest Indians for
years referred to all Americans as
Boston Men
As matter of interest. you will
note that our state happens to
have the name of the ship which
Gray sailed TO our coast, while
our greatest river is named after
the second ship he commanded.
CHowever. keep in mind that the
state was not named after the
ship, but after our first president)
Il is significant that with our
first American explorers. explora-
ton by water ended on our Wash
ington coast. BY now, its contour
was fairly well known.
From now on. exploration was
to be by land.

TO-DAY 10 resumed the dramatic
and intensely interesting story
of the people and events concerned
with the years of progress of Wash
ington territory toward statehood.
But before returning TO the story
Il Is desired to do penance for an
error which appeared in this col
umn last Monday. II was discern
ed by the sharp eye of w. p.
Bonney. secretary Of the Washing
ton State Historical society, in the
abatement that .'one OF those who
welcomed Lafayette Balch at Steil-
accom- in 1850 was the Rev. John

Of the error discovered by Mr..
Bonney.
Now, having cast the beam out
Of the eye Of this column. a bit
of optic surgery is undertaken TO
remove the mote which seems to
clog the eye of the Washington
State Progress Commission when
historical facts are involved. The
most recent case OF defective VS.
ion or some other ailment appears
in the declaration that II was on
Wsshingtons birthday so years
ago that congress passed the en-
aiding act permitting Washington
territory to become a state.
That Is an error. The Washing
ton bill was passed on the same
date as the bills starting the Da-
kotas and Montana on the way TO
statehood. President Grover Clcve-
land signed the first three bills as
soon as they were passed, but
withheld the Washington bill so
that he might sign IL on Washing
tons birthday.
The commission also is in error
when II says that IL was on Wash
ington's birthday. 1853. that Wash
ington territory was created. Ae-
cording 10 the files Of the state
historical society. the territorial
bill was passed near the latter part
of February but did not become
law until II was signed by Presi-
dent Fillmore on March 2

errors and the weeklies are fol-
lowing. Even Jim Wood, state pio-
neer president. let the errors go
through his Seattle Times. always
very jealous of its reputation for
accuracy.
This seems to complete the op-
Grafton on the commission eye and
opens the way for that body to
purge its soul by confession of
error, even as we did.
The foregoing clears the record
TO date and leaves the commission
and the writer of this column
starting at scratch for continuing
the story of the happenings which.

TWO CERTAIN THINGS
In The Life Of Every American

Then arises the question, is OUR
MONEY SAFE IN ROYALTIES? The
answer depends upon the care with which
the money is invested. II a man buys
ONE royalty on a wildcat well and no
more, his money is not safe. The wei
MAY strike oil (chances are one IN
eighty and his speculation MAY jump
in value to 800 for every 81 invested.
But that is royalty SPECULATION ana
not INVESTMENT.
By the term INVESTMENT we mean
the purchase of OIL IN UNDERGROUND
STORAGE. This is done by buying roy
aIties within the producing contours OF
an oil field at a price low enough that
when the oil is taken from the ground
the landowners share viii likely pay
n large return on the investment, antlc1-
pating a return of not less than i've
times the amount of the investment.
The landowners share is delivered to
him or to his assigns (rOyalty investors)
free Of cost Of production. Accordingly
the royalty investors return VIII ne
DroportiOnate to the success OF the OPP
orator. The operator expects to get ms
money back plus a minimum OF 300 per
cent, so the investor can determine thaC
if the land is worth the cost of drilling
he will likely get a profit on his invest
ment In other words, If well costs
10000 and it produces enough OH 70
nav out. the landowner will have re-
ceived $4,000 (12k9o of the tOtal).
III the landowner has sold 20 royaity,
the investor will have received j 70 Oh
500. 600 or $500. The investor knows
that if the operator is going to get ms
money back plus a profit of 1000, the
Royalty investor will receive $500 on ms
1oo royalty from one well-and so on
There is no way of determining posi-
lively whether there is oil under given
tract Of ground. other than by drilling.
That is a risk the operator must take
and likewise the risk the royalty 1nves-
tor must take. After oil is found, there
is no positive method of determining
how much oil a tract will produce. IN
Cat Creek the experts set up maximum
they thought the field would produce M
its lifetime they doubled their first
estimate. Then Cat Creek produced as
much as their second estimate and they
doubled their second estimate. And they
are still wrong.
On the other hand, it is possible for
a tract of ground I'm the midst OF Dig
production TO have a lensing sand. or
a fau1ted condition that cannot be seen
by human eve, that may restrict hts pr
duction. That tract may produce little
oil, although appearing to be as good as
any other tract. Accordingly, the roy
atty investor is guided largely by the
Law OF AVERAGES. The fact that
Cat Creek has produced $4,000 worth
Of oil per acre viii not lead him to base
Kelvin investments on an expectancy or
S8S 900 per acre for he is sure to De
disappointed. Instead ne will look aC
