' Of the many rooms in the White Hdnsa. wnico nossess me necmiar charm of association with epochal ; happenings, the one most f ascinat ' lag to me is that which'' formerly comprised the Cabinet room and , the' President's study. Through its high windows one's gase is drawn irresistibly to the towering gl uuo iuau nuvav oxededed bv bo other monument L in the world, admirably symboli ses the matchless character of George Washington. The beauti fully barred , mahogany bedposts j are those upon which fell the eyes ot .

Yet another episode of hardly less importance in the building, of eur mighty' Nation took place within those ; walls. Before .my mind, ma as I stood in that bls- , toric chamber a few days ago ap peared the vivid picture. . I beheld rmeu v aiurea. me emoouuueui iu uiuiy and courtliness, John Tyler, tenth President of the United States. Facing him5, from a chair., con . structed fojr a masslye frame, his powerful spirit gleaming through his cavernous! eyes, was the. llon Tlsaged. Daniel Webster, Secretary of State. "i The door opened and there ap peared before the amated .states men a strange and astonishing fi gure. It was that of a man of me dium Felght and sturdy" bullet, deep Rested, broad shouldered, yet Qthe in movement and ,aoft of step. He was clad In a coarse fur coat, buckskin breeches, ;fur leg gings, and ' boot moccasins, look ing much, the worse for wear. But ft was the countenance of the vis itor, as he stood for an instant bi the doorway, that riveted the perception ot the two chiefs , of state. It was: that 6f a: religious enthusiast, i tenaciously earnest jet revealing no suggestion of, fa naticism, bronzed from exposure to pitiless elements and " seamed with deep lines of physical sufferr tag, a rare combination of dener mrinatlon and gentleness obvious ry a -man, of, God, but no less a man .. among men. . ; -J:: .

'How often , in our youth, and even in later years, have we been thrilled by the story of how "on through the . night rpde Paul Revere, through every Mid- ' dlesex village and, farm"; to call th9 Minute Men to embattle at , Lexington and fire tthe shot heard 'round the. worldly Howmany times . we have shuddered at the impending rate of the Shenandoah Valley with 'Sheridan 20 miles away!' I loved the martial notes ot those stirring verses as a boy. Hove them still. : r , . , V But, whei I stood ,ln that ,his toric room , in the. White , House! and.iny imagination depicted, the simple science, I could not but feel that the magnificence. .of .Marcus Whitman's, glorious deisd has yet to find adequate . recognition ; : In any form. Here was. a man, who with a single companion, in the dead .of winter, .struggled ,through pathless drifts and blinding storms 4000 iniles with .the sole aim to serve -his . country,. . and his .God. Eighty yearsand,' eight. months ago he was pushing grimly and painfully through v this very pass on his-way rom "alla. Walla to Fort) Hall, thence, abandoning fhe established northern route! as , im passable, ofr to the south through unknown, .untrodden , lands, past . the.Great Salt Lake, to Santa Fe, then hurriedly on:to St. Louis, and finally after a few; days, again on the home-stretch to his destina tion, taking as many months as , it now takes days to go from Walla Walla to Washington. r ,t t lt was more than a desperate and perilous . trip that Marcus Whitman undertook. It , was a race against time, , Public opin ion was rapidly crystallzing , Into a judgment that the Oregon coun try was not worth claiming, much less, worth fighting for; that, even though It could be acquired against .the Insistence., of Great Britain, it would prove to be a liability rather than an asset ..It .is .with. ..sheer amazement that we now;: read the declarations P$. the, Jeadlrtjg ;.men of that pfrlod. So good an American, so sturdy a frontiersman, so willing a fighter, as General Jackson; shook his head ominously In fear least the national 'domain should get too far outspread, and , warned the country that Its safety "lay in a compact government." . Senator, McDuf fie, of South Carolina, jle clared he ."would not give a pinch of snuff rori the whole, territory and expressed thev,. wish that the Rocky Mountains were "an impas sable, barrier." Senator Dayton, otA'ew Jerseysa(LthaUwithjery limited exceptions, "the whole country was as irreclaimable and barren a waste ai the Sahara des ert" and that malaria had carried "aVajr most bt its native popular tlon. ,: tlEven ;,so I far-seBlng and staunch advocate of western interr ests as Thomas Benton, protested that the - ridge - of the Rockies Bhould be made our western boun dary and .avowed tbat on ihe highest peak the statue, of -tha fi bled .Gbd.

We may reasonably do more tot day than rejoice in. possession of the imperial domain which they teyealed, and the life, they madp possible to the virile, aspiring, and confident Northwest. I tind new assurances In 'recalling the hero ism, the resolution, the will to conquer of these pioneers. , .. j l.wlsh' I might more effectively visualize them. Not ; very . long ago I saw, the .covered wagon in the moving picture. I , sat, ; e tranced.( . , There was more than the picturesque, more than sorrow and discouragement, more .than appealing characters and enthrall ing heroism. There was more than the revelation of the irresolute, who failed in fitness to survive, more than tragedy and comedy' in their Inseparable blend. There was more than the scouts who sur passed onr fancies, more than' na ture's relentless barriers revealed. Everywhere aflame was the soul of unalterable purpose and the commanding sturdiness of elemen tal greatness. Still more, there was determination to do them selves, not asking the Government to do, but for Government only to sanctlon'or permit. f Much the ; same) spirit was re vealed In the making of the Cen tral West, where the determined pioneers builded in the confidence which they." had In themselves. They battled with nature and every obstacle which theyencoun tercd, heroes - perished without fame's acclaim, and , they con quered and wrote big their part in. the making of the greater Repub lic ' Their victory proclaimed the strength, of resolute purpose, and the human genius, confident in .It self and eager to achieve oh Its own account. ?
