? Yet another episode of hardly

within those ; walls. Before .my

perception ot the two chiefs , of

empire that the churches - were
gaining for Christianity. ;
Many, of 'the exploits of Ameri
ca's resolute sons are recounted in
prose and vjerse. '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

ot those stirring verses as a boy.

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

country was as irreclaimable and
barren a waste ai the Sahara des

More than two hundred wagons,
bearing well-nigh a thousand emi

traveled by - substantially . the

east Kansas and - southeast .- Ner
braska to the Platte river; follow

what is now Wyoming, thence
crossing the mountains by way of
the 'Sweetwater Valley and the
South Platte; and from Fort Hall,
following -' the well-known route.
roughly paralleling the Snake ri
ver into Oregon. - The difficulties
of the trip. Involving ; beside ,thp

such that . its successful -accom

Never in the history of the
world has there been a finer ex
ample of civilization following
Christianity. The missionaries led
under .the banner of the cross,
and the ' settlers moved close be

records ! of evangelizing effort as
the forerunner of human advancer

as this of , the early Oregon mis

that early day whose first thought
was to carry, the gospel to the In

country and their fellow men
to them we pay to-day our tribute;
to i them .we owe a debt, of grtlr
tude which we can.never pay. save
partially, through recognition such
as you have accorded it today.
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

strength, of resolute purpose, and

self and eager to achieve oh Its
