Oregon, in 1847 was Just settling
down to tho serious business ot grow
ing. The year previous Its boun
daries had ben determined by a
treaty with Great Britain, and in
1848 It became a territory. Tho
year 1847 was an Intermediate per
iod in which to become accustomed
to the Idea that it was a part ot this
country and not of British America
and to prepare for the part It was to
play In tho future history of tho
United States.
In 184G tho dispute with Great
Britain over tho boundaries waxed
very bitter and tho newspapers on
this side were full of war talk. The
territory in disputo was bounded on
tho west by the Pacific, on tho south
by tho 42nd degree of latitude, on
the east by tho Rocky Mountains and
on the north by 54:40 latitude. For
28 yeras a treaty of joint occupancy
had been in force, but with tho settle
ment of the conutry, the porvisions of
this treaty grow Irksome. Each side
made a compromise offer. The
United States conceded all north of
latitude 49 to Grat Britain, while the
latter wished to cut out of what
would thus bo left to the United
States the terrltary north and west of
th0 Columbia River. "The compara
tively small territory which remains
in dispute," tho Anglo-American of
November 29, 1845, contemptuously
remarked, "is not ono-tenth of the
whole of Oregon."
The American offer prevailed and
latitude 49 became the northern
boundary, with the exception of the
southern part of Vancouvr Island,
which, although below the line, re
mained British.
Out of the Oregon defined by tho
treaty signed June 15, 1846, Congrss
on March 2, 1853, carved Washing
ton Territory. On March 3, 1863,
Idaho was sliced off from Washlng-

Tho bill providing for a territorial
form of government, passed both
houses on August 14, 1848, and Gen
eral Joseph Lane, a Mexican War
veteran, was appointed tho first gov
ernor, after the position had been re
fused by Abraham Lincoln, who was
destined to play another port in the
country's history.
The first United States postal ser
vice west of the Rocky Mountains
was auhorized by congress during tho
winter of 1846-47.
It was in 1847 that Marcus Whit
man, missionary to the Indians, and
13 others were massacred by the
Cayuse Indians at Walla Walla eFIv
years before thta Dr. Whitman had
made his famous journey across the
continent to Washington to urge tho
odministration to stand firm In the
American claim to Oregon. "It is
just," says the New England Maga
zine, "to rank Marcus Whitman with
Freemont anl other great pioneers."
Tho massacre led to tho "Cayuse
war." whlcr was prosecuted by a
"Provisional Government," which de
clared war, raised an army, secured
the funds to carry on tho war and
fulfilled othe requirements of a gov
ernment all this without the least
authoity fromt ho government of the
United States. "In trls respect tho
Oregon story is uslque in tre history
of tro tsates If tho American Union."
The Porvislonal Government was
managed by an executive committee
of three until June 5, 1845, when
George Abernetry was elected gov
ernor, witr a full complement of offi
cials. Abernethy was succeeded by
Governor Lane in 1849.
