Tho one -hundredth annlvorsay of the birth of Dr. Marcus Whitman was sclebrated yesterday in hundreds and perhaps thousands of Sunday schools and churches. He was born In a frontiersman's cabin at Ruohville, N. Y, on Sept 4, 1802. Around his name Is gathering a literature of controversy like Iron fillings around a magnet out of which will bo forged tho steel of history. As with many others of tho world's real heroes there are those who at tempt to rob him 'of his well-earned laurels and crown; while others are anxious to honor and perpetuate his memory. What did ho accomplish, that his centennial should be celebrated? Without touching tho points of con troversy we will mention a few things that are acknowledged as incontro vertible facts and leave the readers to judge whether or not they are such as to give him a conspicuous place on the pages of history. Dr. Whitman and wife, and Rev, H. H. Spalding and wife were tho first to establish a home In the northwest Their advent is universally recognized as the be ginning of a new era In this region. . Despite all warning and countless difficulties they brought a wagon over the Rockies to the Columbia. They brought with them the three primal elements of civilization, viz: a quart of wheat, the Bible and wives. This meant the tilling of the soil, cultivat ed farms, harvest fields, flour mills, pure morality, family life, the Chris tian home. Dr. Whitman built tho first house the first 'saw mill, opened the first school, cultivated the first land and died the first martyr to republican and religious principles in the Inland Empire. In the winter of,-1812-3, Dr. Whit, man made one of tho most remark able journeys known in history. De fylng ice and snow, the perils of the hostile Indians and of the elements, ho rode on horsebiack from Walla Walla,, to Washington, D. C. Ho made tho perilous journey primarily for patriotic purposes. Through his writings and addresses ho stimulated interest in Oregon, and promoted Im migration and puotcd about 1000 peo ple to this country on his return. His earnest efforts in behalf of Amor lean possession of the northwest and his lndefatigablo labors in behalf of white settlers made tho savage Ca yuso Indians his enemies, and in Nov. 27, 1847, he and his wife and 11 others j wore massacred at the mission, six miles from Walla Walla. His gravo was neglected for many years, but in November, 1S97 a memorial shaft was reared over It Whitman .college. was founded to his memory by his as. soclate in missionary work, Rov. C. Eells, D. D. Dr. Whitman v. as one of tho world's great jnen, a man of vision, a loyal patriot, a- practical missionary, a man o fsuch strong convictions that dan ger could not daunt, or hardship de ter from doing what ho deemed his duty. The historian Bancroft, who failed to appreciate his services was com pelled to say: "Dr. Whitman was no ordinary man. I do not know which to admire most in him, his coolness or his courage. His nerves were of steel, his patience was ..excelled only by his fearlessness; in tho mighty calm of his nature ho was a Caesar for Christ" Hezekiah Butterworth, editor of tho Youth's Companion In "The Log School House of tho Columbia," says "The doctor's solitary ride of 000 miles In order to save the groat north west territory of tho United States, is one of the most poetic and dra matic episodes of American history. It has proyed to. be worth to our coun try more than all tho money that has been given to missionary enterprises and the coming populous empire will owe to the patriotic missionary zeal of Dr. Whitman a debt which it can only pay in honor and love."
