Excerpt from The Story of Oregon and Its People To the student of human afi' airs the history of the settlement of Oregon will ever be a tale of absorbing interest. Coming as the last of those westward move ments by which the. American commonwealths were peopled, Oregon more closely typifies the home-seeking and the home-making spirit of the Saxon race than any of her sister states. The early pioneers of Oregon were not driven to make the hazardous journey by the lash of religious persecution, nor were they impelled to brave the hard ships of the plains and mountains by the desire for gold. Sustained only by the ambition to found a home for themselves and their children in the distant West, or led by the unselfish zeal of the missionary, they went about their task soberly and seriously, and with a resolute purpose that never faltered in the presence of danger. Certainly the children of no land under the sun have a nobler heritage of brave and honest ancestry than those of Oregon, and if the story OF oregon and its people shall bring this fact and its mes sage closer to the hearts of the young it will have served the purpose for which it was written.

Excerpt from History of Oregon The generation that dared the great adventure has passed away, excepting as a few survivors linger upon the stage to pronounce the epilogue of the drama of the pioneer. The deeply furrowed trail is superseded by the boule vard, and the OX wagon is transformed into the motor car, while the halting and limping despatches of the earlier time may now be delivered by the audible voice or by wireless pulsations across the vast stretches of the continent. The frugal and primitive makeshifts of the early settler-have given way to the surfeit of a luxurious age in a land of plenty. Cities and ports have been builded, the flow of streams has been converted to light and power, the buried treasures of the mountains have been brought forth, the forest-clad fields have yielded to the ax and the plow, and irrigation has aided in making glad the barren places. Thousands have followed to the 'land by the Western Sea and have found home and comfort there. This transformation from the era of the fur trader and the canoeman within the lifetime 'of persons still living is an old tale and often told. The literature of ancient Greece has preserved for all time the flavor of the romance and the poetry of that country and of its ancient people. The stories of heroes, and the folk tales of myth and of fancy that cluster about, early'roman history, have been made imperishable by poets and writers of the olden times. The chivalry of the middle ages, with its charm of romantic sentiment and incident, is imbedded in the world's priceless literature. Just so, the genius of Sir Walter Scott created and preserved for all time living pictures of Scottish life in its verdant setting of hills and plains, lakes and swift-rush'ing tarns. In truth, therefore, while history has its value, its province is limited, and ultimately it must be supplemented by literature; fact must be touched by the golden wand of genius and embellished with the ornament of imagination.

Excerpt from Oregon: Its Resources, Climate, People, and Productions IN the months of July and August of the past year, 1877, I accompanied, at the invitation of Mr. Wallis Nash, of 12, Queen Street, London, a party which paid a some what hurried visit to the State of Oregon; and I now, at the request of Mr. Nash, give here in the following report a short account of the aspects, climate, resources, and condition of the people of the State, which account is to a large extent extracted from official documents, but also supplemented by observations made by myself during the tour above referred to. I extract from the official publications, because, from the numerous Opportunities which I have had of testing the statements contained in them, I believe them to be thoroughly trustworthy; and as they have been prepared with great care, they seem to me to give as complete and satisfactory an account of the country and its re sources, from the point of view required by the emigrant or capitalist, as can be condensed within the limits of a pamphlet.

Excerpt from Antoine of Oregon: A Story of the Oregon Trail The author of this series of stories for children has endeavored simply to show why and how the descendants of the early colonists fought their way through the wilderness in search of new homes. The several narratives deal with the struggles of those adventurous people who forced their way westward, ever westward, whether in hope of gain or in answer to "the call of the wild," and who, in so doing, wrote their names with their blood across this country of ours from the Ohio to the Columbia. To excite in the hearts of the young people of this land a desire to know more regarding the building up of this great nation, and at the same time to entertain in such a manner as may stimulate to noble deeds, is the real aim of these stories.

Excerpt from The Story of Oregon, Vol. 2 of 2: A History, With Portraits and Biographies For a thousand years the billows of the Atlantic stayed their advance. The interval was spent in acquiring skill and stature to qualify themselves for the next stage of the long journey. Forms of religion fought and fell and multiplied; political systems passed through all stages of tyranny on their way toward freedom modern science dawned in the cosmic brain of Bacon, and Shakespeare's hand indited the mighty prelude of a new literature. When the fulness of time was come, the mariner of Genoa led the way whither countless millions were to follow. And in 1624 the Mayflower bore to New Eng land the tiny nucleus oi what was destined, within two hundred and fifty years, to become the mightiest of nations.

Excerpt from Stories of Oregon To The Native Daughters of Oregon Along the fair Pacific slope, A chain of sea-kissed, sun-kissed lands, - Green orchards bend with endless bloom. Bright rivers roll o'er golden sands. Like sentinels the white peaks rise That guard this New World paradise. Deep in her valleys genius waits To nurse awhile her tropic bloom, That yet shall burst and bear abroad Immortal cycles of perfume. Sierra's heights, Willamette's vales, Thy inland seas and southland sun, As fairer yet shall yet surpass Old Delphi's fount and Helicon. - Eva Emery Dye.

Excerpt from History of Early Days in Oregon It is needless to say that in our neighborhood there was great plan ning to come to Oregon. Farms were offered for sale, but there were few buyers. My father alone succeeded in selling his farm, and no doubt at a great sacrifice. As I remember, my father received about $3000 for 160 acres of finest farming land and 40 acres of timber land in the San gamon river bottom.
