leader In America. "Woman and Eco
nomics" has been translated into the
principal tongues of Europe and is used
as a textbook in some countries. It has
been taken up ardently by Japanese
women and is now used as propaganda
literature in China where the "awaken
ing of women" Is so conspicuous a fac
tor in public life.
The strongly anti-feminist and ultra
conservative London Times has pointed
to "Woman and Economics" as a fore
most modern production and has ac
cepted "The Home" as one of tho best
balanced books of the age, having been
won, it is said, by the' leaven of wit and
reason displayed by the author. As
contrasted with the work of the aver
age "hysterical suffragette" the Times
found Mrs. Gilman's works 'extremely
valuable and convincing."
William Dean Howells has referred
to Mrs. Gilman as the foremost woman
in America in the literary field and on
the platform. Mrs. Gilman also Is a

THE HOUSI OF KUPPENHKIHDI
S. & H. Stamps Given
Honor of Belne First M Waters of
Colombia, However, Falls to
Hndaon Bay Company Boat.
The death in Spokane on March 8
of Mrs. Mary Jane Torrance, whose
father built the first steamboat on the
Willamette River, revives pioneer mem-
ories.
The Lot Whitcomb and the Columbia
were not the first steamboats to churn
the Columbia and. the Willamette. That
distinction goes to the Hudson Bay
Company's boat, the Beaver, an ocean
going: vessel, operated by that concern
prior to the launching of the Lot Whit
comb. But the Whitcomb and Colum
bia were the first American-owned
vessels, and were the first steam craft
built on these northwestern rivers.
Some controversy still lingers over
the question of prior completion and
launching, but the weight of evidence
appears to be on the side of the Colum
bia, built in Astoria m asou. juoge
Strong, attorney of the old Oregon
Steam Navigation Company, covered
this phase of pioneer history in an ad
dress at the annual meeting of the
Oregon Pioneer Association in 1878.
He credited the Columbia with taking
the water in June, while the Whitcomb
was not launched until the following
Christmas.
"That was a great day in Oregon,
said Judge Strong. "Hundreds from all
parts of the territory came to witness
the launch. The festivities, were kept
up for three days and nights. There
was music, instrumental and vocal,
dancing and feasting. Portland was
full of good cheer; every house was
open and all was free of charge no
one would receive pay. Sleeping ac
commodations were rather scarce, but
there was plenty to keep one awake."
The aged mother whose death sug
gests these backward glances was a
young woman when the pioneers cele
brated the great achievement of her
sturdy father, whose name was let
tered on this pioneer craft For, the
times considered, it was a great
achievement. The Lot Whitcomb was
no tiny vessel. Her keel was 12x14
Inches. 160 feet long, a solid stick of
Oregon fir. Her burden was 600 tons
and she cost about $80,000.
When the Lot Whitcomb was
launched, on Christmas day. 1850, and
the daughter of its builder, who died
in Spokane, was a girl of 17, the coun
try lay savage everywhere. Means of
transportation were primitive and in
adequate. Few of the pioneers could
command what now are considered the
essential comforts of life, and not even
the residents of the little towns knew
the touch of luxuries.
Mrs. Torrance went, with her hus
band. 40 years ago. into the unsettled
Palouse country and there took up the
stirring life of the pioneer where her
father and mother had taken it up In
the Willamette Valley a quarter of a
century before.
