For three years the citizens of the territory of 'Missouri had been knocking at the doors of congress pleading f-r state hood. For thres ynr, the eloquence of both houses had been used for and gainst the admission of the new state. 'Henry Clay. Lowndes of South Carolina, ' Taylor and McLane of Delaware Ser geant Of Pennsylvania, Barbour or lr- 5lnla, Kustls of Massachusetts and obb of Georgia plonded. argued and Vilified, each for his own Hide. To ad mit Missouri as a slave state wotiia disturb that balance of power already toppling toward the crash tnat awak ened the world with Internecine strife In 1861-5. , , , Parker- of Virginia hotly declared: "If ever a people on earth has been maltreated it Is this people." and in the summer between the fifteenth and six teenth congress the people of almost very state held mot-tings on the ques tion of Missouri's eligibility to state hood and declared for or against the celebrated "Mtsso&rl Compromise." The press took It up, pamphleteers made It the matter of much jjrlnted eloquence, and the country was for a while demor alized. There were dobates everywhere that summer and In congress that win ter, on the evils of slavery, on the rights of the south, the balance of power, the Interpretation of the word "'union" and the obligations and bene fits that should accrue from the union. Blast on the Maine BUI. Then came Maine, In February, 1S20. asking to be admitted as a stiite, and requiring no enabling act, for when Massachusetts lifld voluntarily agreed to separation It was with only one con dition expressed, that Maine must be admitted to statehood before March 4, 1820. Advocates of Missouri's cauFe aaw their opportunity, and the Maine bill with the Missouri bill a a rider, passed both houses on March 2. That ummer the Missouri legislature met to draft Its constitution, but as this did not prove acceptable to congress when presented that December, the old fight was renewed.

The sen ate eventually returned and It was de clared that whether Missouri was counted or not, that Monroe would be president and Tompkins vloe-presldent. By February, 1821, it was decided by a committee of 28 that If Missouri would eliminate certain clauses from its constitution it would be admitted, and the bill was passed by a very nar row margin. Bta. G-ensvtsye Tlrst Settlement. And so. out of one of the most vio lent political struggles that ever beset the nation, was born this peaceful and prosperous commonwealth. Its fairness and beautv and great possibilities had been recognized long ago. It Is possi ble that the weary De Soto and his men mav have gone as far north as the present confines of the state before turning further down Into Arkansas where that Intrepid leader met death. Marquette and Joliet in 1673 came to the mouth of the Missouri rives after passing the painted rocks on the land of the Illinois Indians. Thirty years later adventurous soldiers of fortune went out from Kaskaskla across Mis souri into New Mexico In - search of lead mines.

Truly prophetic was School craft In 1819 when he wrote of It ns tho "land of ore, the country of minerals." for over $700,000,000 In mineral wealth has been mined. The founding of St. Xiouls. In the spring of 1764 Pierre Laclede Llgueste sent Augusts Chouteau and a body of workmen Into the river valley of Louisiana Territory, and of upright logs set about with pnlisades they built a settlement and called It St. LoWs. And here was the meeting of tha ways for all the new world west or trie Mis sissippi. Tha voyageur frrm Canada, the boatman fmin ths lower Mississippi, the Scotoh-Irlsh settler from the Ca.ro ltnns and Kentucky, the Indian fur trader, tho negro slave, tho picturesque hunter, the citizen of the world all passed through the streets of the little town Into the world beyond. The trade soon amounted to $250,000 a year, and the fur trade to $200,000. Boating back and forth to New Orleans took from four to six months for the trip, until the first steamboat went through, In 1S17. Then the doors of Immigration swung wide open. In 1815 the Missouri Oazette. which under the name of the St. I,nuls Republic, celebrated Its cen tennial last month, chronicled the pass ing of 100 Immigrants through St Charles In one day, and by 1820 Mis souri, with the exclusion of Arkansas, had a population of 6ii.f00. Great Educational Fund. Education became an early factor In Missouri life. A public land fund for the schools, the largest of any state educational fund, realizes about $50,000 a year for St. Louis alone. In 1 820, so far had the arts and sciences progressed in St. Louis Bishop Dtiborg had gath ered among the treasures for his cathe dral works of art from the old world masters that rivaled any older and more powerful city.
