Indiana Will Mark the Grave
Governor Jennings.
of
Remarkable Character of the First Cliiot
Executive ol trio Hoosicr State His
Fight Against Slavery Ruined
by Drink.
The late session of the Indiana legis
lature made an appropriation of 500
for the purpose of erecting- a monu
ment at the grave of Jonathan Jen
nings, the first governor of Indiana,
and the citisens of Charlestown and
Clark county have swelled the original
amount appropriated by private sub
scription until the monument fund has
reached a respectable figure.
Jonathan Jennings was one of the
xemaikablc men of Indiana. He was
' born in New Jersey in 1T84, removed to
Pennsylvania, and while young came
down the Ohio river in a flatboat and
settled at Jcffersonville, where he
commenced the practice of law. Soon
-.after he was made clerk of the territo
rial legislature. He was elected the
first territorial delegate to congress in
1809. Althoug-h a democrat young Jen
nings was bitterly opposed to the ex
tension of slavcrj-, and through his
efforts more than those of any other
man Indiana was admitted to the union
k as a free state in 1810. At the first
iconstitutionul convention held in Cory
den in 110 Jonathan Jennings was
elected president of the convention
and after the adjournment he an
nounced himself a candidate for gov
ernor of the new state. Atthe August
election of 1810 he defeated Thomas
Posey, the then territorial governor,
receiving 5,211 votes, his Jeunings
opponent 3,934 votes.
Two years later Gov. Jennings was
appointed by President Monroe a com
missioner to negotiate a treaty with
the Indians, and after a bitter leg-al
contest he held the office of governor
as well as commissioner. He was re
elected governor in 1830 and resigned
the governorship in 1822, having been
elected to congress. He served four
terms in the lower house of congress
and was defeated for a fifth term by
Gen. John Carr. On retiring from con
gress Mr Jennings removed to his farm
near Charlestown. The ex-governor's
governor and his second wife, even
the governor's convivial habits caus
ing no ripple on the sea of domestic
bliss.
The exovernor was taken ill in
July, 1834. and on the 20th of that
month he passed away, surrounded by
his family and many devoted friends.
The Dext day the remains were placed
in a common farm wagon and taken to
the little cemetery, situated on a high
hill in the western part of Charlestown,
and there interred. The grave will
soon be marked by a monument of
Vermont granite.
The old house in which Gov. Jen
nings and Miss Barbee were married
and where the governor held his first
reception still stands on acorner o fone
of Charlestown's pretty streets after
having stood the ravages of nearly a
century.

Here he entertained the leading poli

one of the ex-governor's servants.
The convivial habits of that period
soon claimed him a victim, and it is

and kept away all hoarseness from me.
So give it to every one, with greetings
for all. Wishing you prosperity, we are
Yours, Mb. & Mrs. J. F. Ford.

THE DALLES,
Wasco County, - - - Oregon,
The Gate City of the Inland Empire is situated at the head
of navigation on the Middle Columbia, and is a thriving, pros
perous city.
ITS TERRITORY.
It is the supply city for an extensive and rich agricultural
and grazing country, its trade reaching as far south as Summer
Lake, a distance of over two hundred miles.
The Largest Wool Market.
The rich grazing country along the eastern slope of the Cas
cades furnishes pasture for thousands of sneep, the wool from
which finds market here.
The Dalles is the largest original wool shipping point in
America, about 5,000,000 pounds being shipped last year.
ITS PRODUCTS.
The salmon fisheries are the finest on the Columbia, yielding
this year a revenue of thousands of dollars, which will be more
than doubled in the near future.
The products of the beautiful Klickitat valley find market
here, and the country south and east has this year filled the
warehouses, and all available storage places to overflowing with
their products.
ITS WEALTH.
It is the richest city of its size on the coast and its money is
scattered over and is being used to develop more farming country
than is tributary to any other city in Eastern Oregon.
Its situation is unsurpassed. Its climate delightful. Its pos
sibilities incalculable. Its resources unlimited. And on these
jorner stones she stands.
