DISCOVERY OP THE COLUMBIA.
It Is proper today to recall that one
hundred and one, years ago, Captain
Robert Gray discovered the Columbia,
Last year the centennary of that dis
covery was celebrated with due honor.
Our people will always recall with
pride the patriotic ardor with which
tha day was observed. The assemblage
of the Oregon Pioneers, the presence
of the great war vessels the Charles
ton and Baltimore the street parade,
the marine parade, the civic hospitali
ties, the pioneers' speeches, and that
admirable oration of Professor John
Flake, are slill fresh in the public mem
ory and form a historic combination
that will Impart imperishable interest
to the annals of Astoria.
. On Discovery Day all Oregon united
in honoring the memory of the Yankee
captain, who with enthusiasm like that
of Columbus, braved the perils of the
eea, in order that he might be the first
to float the American flag on the great
river which his keen Judgment told
him poured its waters Into the Paciflo
ocean at the broad bar where he saw,
on his first voyage, the two waters

rosentatives might here celebrate
worthily the historic incident which
gavo Oregon and Washington to the
United States two bright stars that
wlU shine Imperishably In the Anierl
can constellation.
On this anniversary It is appropriate
t quote the exuet words which Cap
tain Robeit Omy used in his log book
in describing the discovery of the Col.
wmblrt. He wrote:
"May 11. At 7:30 we were out clear
of tho bars, and directed our course to
the southward, along shore. At 8 d. m.
the entrance of Bullllnch's harbor bore
north, distance four miles; the south.
era extremity of tho land bore S.SJ3,
1-2 B, and the north extremity N. N.
W.; sent up the moln-top-giUlant yard
riiu Bet all sail: at 4 a. m. saw the en
trance of our desired port, bearing E.
B.B., distance six leagues; In steering
sans and hauled, our wind in Bhore: at
8 a. m. being a little to windward of
tha entrance of the harbor, bore away,
uia js,.w. id. between tho breakers.
heading from Ave to seven fathoms of
water. Whon we were over the bar,
we found this to be a largo river of
fresh water, ui, which wte steered;
many canoes came alongside. At 1 p,
m.
came to with small bower in ten
fathoms; black and white sand; the en.
trance between the bare bore W. B. W
distance ten miles; thei north side of
the river half a mile distant from the
ship; the south side two and a half
mile distant; a village on the north side
of the river, W. by N distance, three
quarters of a mile. Vast numbers of
native cain alongside; people em
ployed In pumping the salt water out
of our water casks In order to fill with
rresh water while the ship floated In
So ends."
Tha story thus simply told formed In
after yews the title deed of the United
States to the vast territory which now
comprises the states of Oregon and
Washington. The right of discovery
which the log-book upheld, proved the
strongest of all claims to this region.
But how did Robert Gray come to be

In these watera in May, 1792? The cir
cumstance is explained by Prof. Flske
who in his oration tells
the leading
circumstances of that memorable voy-
age: -
'On the 28th of September, 1790, the
Columbia again set sail from Boston
and in the romcfwlng junie; navmg
rounded Cape Horn, she was again !n

On the 7th of May.
1792, we find him (Captain Gray) dls
coverlng and entering the harbor still
Known as uray b naroor. mo auu
he reached Deception Bay, and selz -
ing a favorable wind, ran in under
crowded .canvass, forced his way
through the breakers and dropped an-
chor some ten miles up the 'stream,
After a halt of three days, to fill his
water casks and trade with the natives,
he ran up fifteen miles further, but
mistook the channel and got into shoal
water.
Nevertheless, he felt sure that
the river must bo navigable for more
than a hundred miles. There could
hardly be a doubt that so great a
stream must extend a long way Into
the country and drain a very large ex.
tent of territory, and after satisfying
himself as to the decisive character of
his discovery, Captain Gray turned his
prow to tho ocean again and sailed out
over the bar on the 20th." Professor
Flske adds "that the river he named
after his good ship, the Columbia,"
Such are the outlines of a narrative
which with subsequent events, forms a
historical chapter of thrilling interest,
