Tribute to the memory of Pr. John McLonghlln. who- came to Astoria In TI4 as head of the Hudson's Bay Com pany In the Oregon Country, and who founded the first school on the Pa clfle Coast, was psld In an address by Frederick V. Holman. Mr. Holman pointed out that, whlla Dr. McLoughlln had been dead nearly M yeans, his re markable life eras so closely Interwoven with the upbuilding of Oregon that re iteration of his good could never become tiresome. Even thongh he was employed by an English company whose chief aim was to suppress rival American fur-trading companies. Pr. McLoughlln. while serv.

It was agreed that the disputed Oregon Country should be open to the citizens and subjects of the two powers. During this Joint oc cupancy neither the laws of the United Ptatea nor of Great Britain were en forced In Oregon. In IS:l Canada passed a law which gave Its courts Jurisdiction of civil and criminal mat ters, and this law probably applied to Canadian and possibly other British subjects. No attempt was ever made to enforce this law on citizens of the United States. -Owing to the desirability of having the principal post of the Hudson's Bay Company farther up the river. and where It could grow wheat. In MI! Dr. McLoughlln estahllshed Fort Van couver, rear where the City of Van couver. Wash., now is. He continued to reside ther until he left the com pany's service. In 14.

Travelers Are Welcomed. "At Vancouver, for rears, ha lived and ruled, as becama the autocrat of the Oregon Country. There he wel comed and entertained with kind and generous hoepltallty the occasional traveler rival American traders and the early missionaries.

These were the only survivors of a crew of IT of a derelict Japanese Junk which drifted across the Paclnc Ocean and went ashore about IS miles south of Cape Flattery, in March, 18J5. These Japanese were enslaved by the Indians and cruelly treated. They were rescued at great trouble by rr. Job.n McLouchlln, who kept them at Vancouver for a long time, until he was able to send them to England In one of the company's vessels. His humanity was broader than race or creed. It was universal In Its thought and application. so far as he had the power, and was the religion of Christ Missionaries Receive Aid. "When the missionaries came to Ore iron, beginning with the Methodist In 1S34. tbe Presbyterian In 1S3 and the Catholic in 183S. he gave ' them each and all a kindly welcome, enter tainment and encouragement. He sup plied their needs, he assisted them to establish their respective missions, he protected them from the Indiana. With out his assistance ana protection non of these missions could have been es tabltshed. or if established,' could have continued. "Beginning with the year 1S43 th first home-building American immi grants came to Oregon to assist In tip building Oregon and particularly the Willamette Valley, as an American community. They did not come a friends of Great Britain, nor of the Hudson's Bay Company, nor of Tr, McLoughlln himself. Many of them were strongly assertive of their Amer lranlsm. In the Immigration of 1S4J there were nearly 900 men. women and children. They arrived at old Fort Wall Walla, now Wallula. on the Columbia River. "He furnished boats and bateaux to these Immlgranta to transport them and their families through the perilous waters of the Columbia to the TVU lamette River. He furnished them, on credit, with food and supplies until they could support themselves. He loaned them wheat and seeds to sow during the coming season. Implements to farm with and the necessary cattle- He did all these things, not as char Ity. but en account of humanity. The Good Samaritan had his actual ex istence in Dr. McLo-ighlln. And so he acted with the Immigrants of 1144 and 1145. when he was forced to re sign irom the Hudson's Bay Company because of his aid to these early Im migrants, Power Site Homestead. . "In llf thr. McLoughlln bad taken for himself as a land claim the water power and land where Oregon City I now situated. "I cannot In this address gtt Into the details of how he was deprived of part of Ids land claim by some of the early misalonariea whom he had befriended and protected, and by their associates. Through a conspiracy composed of some of these early missionaries and their associates and by means of the Oregon donation law of September 17, 18S0. all the rest of his land claim, not disposed of by him prior to March . 14. was given to the Territory of Oregon to found a university. "And though so unkindly treated b aome of FTiose he had befriended and saved from privation, his nsme had spread as far as Rome, and In 18(4, Pope Gregory XVI made Dr. McLough Un a Knight of St. Gregory the Great of civil grade. While he accepted the honor which he could not well refuse I know of no Instance In which Dr. McLoughlln ever used the title or even mentioned lt "His death was on the third day oi September. ll7. I can give no better Instance of the esteem In which he was held by the Oregon pioneers than to say that his house was situated more than a quarter of a mile from the churchyard where his body was to be buried: there waa no hearse In those days, and a wagon waa brought to carry hla body to the church. Without pre. concert, but with a common Impulse, the pioneers that he had helped took the coffin from the pallbearers and passed It from hand to hand, carrying it all that long distance, with love and regret.

The party returned to Stehekln : took the boat down Lake Chelan Lakeside. Mr. Trouty and Mr. TVhtttel sey will arrive in Portland tomorrow. View Is One of Grandeur. A third ascent of Glacier peak wa made August 15 by a small party o Mazamas. Leaving camp on the morn Ing of August 14 the climbers knap sacked to the camp at the timberlin which had been established by the pre cedtnx party. liarly the followln morning the start upward began. Th nrst few hours of the ascent were without event, for heavy clouds hung over the face of the peak, hiding every thing from view. At an elevation of 8.000 feet, how ever, the cluuds were left behind and the view that was presented was un surpassed. The ocean of rolling clouds hid the valley from sight, but the mountalna rose majestically above us on every hand like islands. Rainier, St Helens. Bakr, Shukan and the lesser peaks of the Chelan region were all visible. The ascent was made in four hours and forty-rive minutes. Those who made this climb were Charles TV. Whittlesey. RoJiney Gllsan. Miss Sadie C. T. Carson, W. M. Moody. L. TV. Barnard. The return to camp was made the same day. I.jman Lake Is Seen. The Mazamas broke camp August IS at Buds Creek Pass and traveled about ten miles to a meadow near Pulattle Pass. The following day was passed In North Star Pass and Lyman Glacier and Lyman Lake were visited. The main party then returned to Stehekln by way of Agnes Creek, while two fish ing parties knapsacked down Railroad Creek to join their companions at Lucelne. The ascent of Glacier Peak by a large Mazama party was accomplished on August 11. This being the official climb of the 1911 outing, sufficient time was allowed for all to make the as cent In an easy and thoroughly enjoy- able manner. Those lntendlnjr to make the climb left Camp Whlfflesey at Buck Creek Camp early In the morning of August 10, carrying with them their blankets and provisions for three days. The entire day was allowed for reach Ing Camp Trouty, which had been es tablished at the timberllne a few days previous by an advance party, who ex plored the mountain and its surround ings with a view of finding the easiest route for making the ascent. All reached the temporary camp in good condition. The evening was passed In setting shoes with calks and putting finishing touches to the climbing outfit At 4:50 on the morning of August 11 the party started on its way to make the actual ascent of an interesting peak. Heavy fog lay over the mountain as well as over the surrounding peaks. and the line of climbers loomed ghost like through the mist. About 7 o'clock. however, the sun suddenly broke through the clouds and as by magic the fog disappeared, at least from the higher altitudes. The climb was a com paratively eauy one. The route led first up along the side of Chocolate Glacier, then followed an easy lava ridge, then over the rock, crossing a wide rnowfield Intersected by crevasses, and Anally over a somewhat steeper rise of larger rocks to the summit. The ascent from Camp Trouty was made in six hours and two minutes, or almost two hours quicker than the ascent made by the mountaineers. Quick Descent Made, The view from the summit was long to be remembered. To the west and north as far as the eye could reach stretched a sea of clouds filling the valley below. Above them rose the peaks. Large cumulus clouds floated over the landscape, but allowed glimpses of the valley below. The return to Camp Trouty consumed about two and a half hours and to show the condition In which members of the party found themselves, they spent the remainder of the day In Jumping rope and other sports. A few of the climbers returned to Dermanent camp tbe same day, but the greater number left early the fol lowing morning and traveled at their own pleasure. Some of the rapid ones reached Camp Whittlesey as early as 12:30 p.m.. and all of them got in by 6 p.m. The names of those making the ascent are as follows: H. 11. Trouty. leader.
