readers of the Enterprise to know
that besides the mw edition of
Lewis it I'iarke's Journal recently
reprinted by McClurg & Co., Mrs.
Eva Ernery Dye, author of "Mc
Laughlin and Old Oregon," has a
very interesting book entitled "The
Conquest." In it she weaves a
story which is a sequel to the

and mile journey on foot by Ne,
Perces Indians from Oregon to St.
Louis in 1830 to find Wm. Clarke
whom they called the "Red-headed
Chief who wns now superintendent
of Indian affairs. They wanted to
get the "white man's Book of
Heaven" of which an American
trapper had told them. "The
Conquest" attempts to cover the
work of Jason Lee and Marcus

with deeds of heroism and oonse
