During the winter of 1847 and 1848 tho legislature was called at Oregon City to devise measures for carrying on tho war. Money was needed to send a messenger to Washington. Tho superintendent of the Methodist mission was applied to for f 1,600 to aid in the emergency. Jesse pplegato (noble man that ho was and is) was tho commissioner in the case. I fur nished tho funds. Please remember these were trust funds, not my own money, and there was no security, none whatever. It took some courage to handle tho money then, for we lived by faith largely in those times. With tho events of the several wars with tbe Yakimas, the Rogue rivers, the Mo- docs and theNozPerce3, 3ou are familiar. What, with these severs! wars, together with the discoverv of cold m California, never forgetting our own civil war, for we were many times within a few hair breadths of outbreak in our own midst, it has been a difficult task to keep the water line of morals up to the point of the early provisional government. We once had a prohibitory liquor low here, before it was luad in Maine, but we lost it, and there nmst be some grand.wor clone De- fore we can reach it again.

The men were ,t the top of their conamon. livery inouoa :ma ioo De spoke the soldier. As they marchrd by, the baron turned around to Bishop Ames and said, "1'lshop, those men can whip the world". Presently there followed by hi the procession seme old veterans, just as they came from their long camuaisns In tbe south. They weresoiled and Tagged. One man had one leg of his pants patched out by sLr-intm ciotu : anoiuer una no coat : unoin- er had a tfakettle strung on his gun over nls stioulder; another naa part or a nam on hi bayonet. So they represented the breaking up and utilities of the cam p. They rolled along with an easy, svanjrlnz gait, chatting, lauzhlni-. occasionally Imitatlnn some animal. Riving a bark or a howl, or a screeca, jet Keeping step ana in une. as these rn-n. with their tattered uniforms and tattered fUs. went by, the baron sprang up aud. tli 10 wine his arnn around Bishop Aidm, said. "My Gott. risuop, tn&se men could "hip the derll !" So it seems to ma the heroio men who havo settled Oregon could whip the "world, the flesh and the devil." I do not like to hear anyone say these men entirely failed in the work they came to accomplish. It is not true; they wre not a failure. Mistakes have been made in Oregon, no doubt. Among others tbe following. I think it was a mistako to set too high an estimate on the value of the mission property at lho Dalles, lhat business should havo been settled twenty years ago; but some persons in New York overvaluing our claim, much to our orejcdice.held on to it and lost it. .know ing more of the original transactions than any man now alive, and fullv be lieving in the equity of our claim, I am of tho opinion a mistake was made, not here, but in New Yoik. That noble son of Mars, Major Gen eral Canby, together with Rev. Dr. Thomas, lost his life in tho lava beds in northern California at the time of the Modoo war by a mistake trusting to the honor of Captain Jaok, tho rascally Modoo chief. When the loader of the noble 600 at Balaklava, immortalized in song, led his band into the valley of death be quietly observed, ''Somebody has blundered." Having learned from one of the four commissioners that General. Canby was told by tbe interpreter that they would be assassinated if thev went unprotected to hold that council with these treacher ous Indians, according to them all the rights they would to commissioners from tbe court of St. George or St. James. 1 ask my friend Dr. Cabaniss,.now before me, why did Canby and Thomas and Meacbam and Dyer too into that council uncovered by the guns of their men. Or ders from Washington, he replied, was tbe explanation. Now, I doubt if any living man knows more of this sad mat ter, which cost the livea of two grand men, than Dr. Caboniss, who was present, arranged for the meeting, and nursed the wounded Meacham back to life again. Too much importance was attached to treating with heathen rascality. A costly mistake. Some of you came to this country to teach. There was much need of it, just as there is in all parts of the union. You have taught geography until everybody knows that tho United States is bounded on the west not by the Alleghenie3, nor the Mississippi, nor Rocky mountains, but by the Pacific ocean, and the great American desert is sunk into Symmea hole, or into nonentity. You have taught engineering. It is now well known that a farm wagon freighted with an apple orchard, and pear and peach and plum and cherry trees and all manner of fruit, can cross tbe plains, to say nothing of the iron horse and his magnificent deeds and doings. Yon have taught something of mathematics. The whole is greater than any of its parts. Tbe great Amer ican government is greater than any single one of its Btates. The lad who en listed in Louisville,. Kentucky, and marched southwest for ten days and still camped in Kentucky, and wrote home to his father saying, 'If tho United StateB is bigger than Kentdcky it is awful big," has since learned some geography and some mathematics.. Some men are studying sociology and finance vary closely. This, when reduced, its last analysis includes among others the value of tho longest pole in relation to the per simmon?, and that he must have a very long Bpoon who sups with the devil, a vast amount of labor has been performed, governmental, educational, reformatory, religious. I represent a church (and it is but one of several churches) that has done fifteen years of missionary prepara tion and thirty-five years of conference labor, and had up to 1870 gathered into the church from the world 1C.CO0 persona on trial as church members. I wish to add my testimony in this important fact; Oregon belongs to the United States largely, if not wholly, in consequence of missionary enterprise. I can scarcely conceive a more difficult task than tbat which confronted Jason Lee and his as sociates when they reached this country fifty years ago, and fully realized the sit uation. The base of supplies was practi cally 20,000 miles away, and a long time was required to give or receive advices. The ground was occupied by a powerful foreign company, extremely jealous of America, ready most shrowdly to check mate any and every step that would look toward American settlement. If these missionaries showed their certificates ob tained from the American secretary of war it only confirmed the suspicion that after all it may only prove a skirmish line, thrown out by the United States to open the way for a final ejectment of the English traders, from a very profitable traffio with the natives. No sufficient BUDLlies it was seen could be ohtninM for American settlors from the stores of the Hudson Bay company. It was there fore a necessity for the missionaries to furnish themselves with sup plies and also their neighbors around them. The good received with the great rolnforcement In tho Lausanne in 1840 aeQiaea tne easy posslbuitv of American settlement. The Jeurney of Dr. Whitman to Washington In the winter of 1842-3, and his Influence In aiding and e .couraclnc the emffrratinn of the following season ultimately de- cioca uie nationality 01 iuis north-west coast, and thus Oregon became the property of the United States, with a population of more than ordinary intel ligence and moral vrorth. As late as 1835 the H. B. company would ot sell a cow to an American settler. They would lend the cow but the calf must it returned. Jason Lee organized a party in 1R37 to go to California and purchase cattle for the country. When the company found it could no longer be prevented they joined in and helped in the enterprise. Thus this magnifi cent land could no longer be held back from settlement or civilization or con tinued as a wilderness for the raising of beaver and miiakrat, mink, bear and etter: Men, women and children are now preferred over bears and silver foxes, and we propose by onforcing tho uunmuiuubui reunion aim niorauiv 10 make the country one of tho most desir able places of residence in the union. Dr. Fowler, already quoted, has well said: "The resources of the Unitwi States are beyond computation. Take tne population 01 xnaia as a standard, while In England a population of 200 to the square mile means a town, or a mine, or a factory, in India somo agri cultural districts rise to IW5 to the square mile. That would give us 3,500,000, about three times the present popula tion of the globe. bwlng Into the future as far as the landing of the pilgrims Is In the past, acd this continent would hold and feed thrice the present human race. Of the thirty-seven years spent on this coast, seven years er: solid work have been given to the circulation of the scriptures, the other thirty years to the Inculcation of its hallowed truths. It is quite likely that we shall be visited with Russian nihilism, German communism, and French socialism. We do not need them, any more than Douglas Jerrold's duck wishes you to liold an umbrella over him in a shower. We have a better thing In Uie bible, and we shall cling to it so long as "righteousness exalteth a native and sin Is a reproach to any people." But these desultory remarks must close. The historian Macaulay found reason to suggest that In the possibili ties of the future some SouthSea island er might stand on a biokcn arch of London bridge and sigh over the ruins of Westminster abbey In that grand historic city. Should tho time ever come when the vast commonwealth of which the northwest coast forms a part shall be overthrown, and some, future mari ner voyaging the ocean of life enters on his leg: "Seen to da' The dismantled hulk of a once noble vessel of state; name and history unknown'." It will bo because the father and mothers of our children hare failed to baptize them with prayer and the fear of God. We have an opportunity here to build a noble structure. Over In India, yon der, finely described In "Tho Land of the Veda," there Is a cenotaph on the oanks of the Jumna. It Is most beauti ful and wonderful, ordered to be erected bv the great ruler at Delhi, Shah Jehan: The Taj stands 011 a marble terrace thirty feet high, and is built of white marble. The dome, shining like a dome of silver, Is seventy feet in diameter,' and the golden crescent at the top Is 275 feet from the terrace. The whole of the Koran Is Inlaid in black marble on the outside and in precious stones within: It is difficult to conceive its richness. Among the wealthy y.u may find opals and rubles of a few grains weight But wro.ight into this wonderful structure are $70 pounds of opals, and 4614 pounds of rubies woven about in the maivelous designs; S3J2 pounds of em eralds, and shining everywhere are 12,470 pounds of sapphires. Add to this 30 ton3 of carnelian, 20.W0 pounds of turquoise, and 37.840 pounds of lapis la zuli, with 12 tous of agate and onyx, and the mind is lost In the immense values. Sixteen millions of dollars were paid for material and 140,000,000 of days' labor. Its finish is most delicate and a breatning. spiritual beauty Is ev erywhere seen. The white marble walls are inlaid with flowers that look like embroidery on white satin. Thirty-five Und3 of carnellans are used in a single flower of a carnation, and in on blos som not larger than a dollar twen y threegems aie seen. A single flower contains 300 different stones. Surely, this was "planned by Titans and built by jewellers." It stands to-day, the wonder of India, over the center of a spacious park. It is a worthy human ambition to work one's life into such a structure, even though it Is only a tomb. Mothers, as I look, another building rises up before me. Its park is this northwest coast. It Is terraced up by vast mountain ranges. Its borders are washed by a magnificent ocean. Its fountains and reservoirs are rivers and lakes and inland seas. The materials for this edifice are gathered out of all lands. The great body of Its walls and dome are of white Anglo-Saxou marble, first found in the North sea. This is in aid with a trifle of black marble from Africa. Then come the treasures from every country and city under the star& the large-brained German with his industry: the long-hpaded, open-faced Scot, with his broad plan and enduring purpeses: the sprightly, artistic French man with bis love of glory, the stolid enduring Slav, from awakening Russia ; the witty, hopeful son of Erin ; the free born, hardj, liberty-loving men from Scandinavia: the asnlrlne Jananese: fie unci mplain ng China-i an ; from nil mnwi uuu iium an ibies 01 me sea, inej come and are wrought into this temple of liberty. Up and down all Its sides, and over all its wide arches. Inwrought by the faith aud patience of the saints of to-day,you can read the full gospel of tin. Unn tf fn1 Txhlt ctnrwllttrr KanonfK its vast dome myriads shall sing "Lib erty and righteousness." The Lord God omnipotent reigneth. Brothers.it is an ambition worthy of the Immortals to build our lives into such a structure which is not a tomb for the dead, but a temple for the living. Let us do our work at our best, bring to perfection whatever we have in our pat tern, whether the name of the kiuz him self on tho great dome, or only some uiy 01 uie vaney in an ouscure corner, and we shall be rewarded by him who never overlooks even a cup of cold wa ter given In tho name of a disciple.
