MaNY TINE PRODUCTS, like .many fine men, begarvjheir careers in humble surroundings. - mnoty cars ago, in a log cabin plant in Walla Walla,'Wasliington, a line product was born. Those were the days before modern brewmcisters, modern brewing methods, modern packaging. But even then in 1855 quality counted most . . . quality, in a product of tem perance. The Saga of the Walla Walla Valley, the history of our great Pacific Northwest,- the richness of land and resources, the courage, skills and character of people all these leave a heritage to us who come from a humble beginning. We, now known ns Pioneer Brewing Company, began but two years after the "Territory of Washington" was organized by an act of Congress and signed by President Millard Fillmore. In the two years which preceded us, Major Isaac Stevens, Governor of Washington Territory and Superin tendent of its Indian Affairs, organized the expedition which explored the route for a railroad from the Missis sippi to the Pacific Ocean across the northern part of the continent. The building of the Northern Pacific Railway followed, in the main, the lines of this survey. In 185f, one year before our beginning, Governor Stevens estimated the total number of Indians in Washing ton Territory as 21,712 and the number of white persons as :t,905. ' . il From May 28 to June 16, 1855, five thousand Indians 2500 Net Pcrccs and 2500 other Indians' of the Yakims, Walla Walla, Cayusc and Umatilla tribes assembled on the present site of the city of Walla Walla in council with Washington's dynamic territorial Governor. From this, and similar councils held by Governor Stevens throughout the territory, came assurance of peace and understanding with our Indian neighbors. But just a few months later, while Governor Stevens was negotiating a treaty with the great Blackfoot Con federacy, an exhausted messenger brought the terrifying news that the Cayuscs, Yakimas, Walla Wallas, Umatillas, Palouscs and all the Oregon bands down to The Dalles, had broken out in open war. How Governor Stevens returned, surprising the Cocur d'Alcncs and Spokancs before they had time to kill him how he held a visit of friendship with the Ncz Pcrces how these troublous conditions were righted so that men of good will could work and till the soil and care for their loved ones in safety we shall relate from time to time. For it shall be our purpose to remind us all again of the courage and character of men who founded this great section of America. H , tike other pioneer business people oj this area, are determined that our business principles and practices shall be in keeping u ith our heritage of tin past and thai the quality of our product shall never be surpassed. i'l SINCE 1855 .
