years the citizens of the territory of
'Missouri had been knocking at the
doors of congress pleading f-r state

both houses had been used for and

"If ever a people on earth has been
maltreated it Is this people." and in the
summer between the fifteenth and six

very state held mot-tings on the ques

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

By February, 1821, it was decided by

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

lead mines. About 17SB Salnte Gene

to history as the first permanent set

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.

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

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

brought by slow vessels across the seas
