And certainly, everyone got here, had a mountain, county in on the act from the earlist Spanish explorers who spot ted our shore in the 16th century to contemporary real estate men. About one quarter of our place names are of Indian origin. Others came from Spanish and English explor ers who arrived by sea; still others are from early fur traders-French, English.Span ish and American-who ven tured overland. Pioneers named 'many places after eastern towns for which they yearned, and, in turn, had places named for them. Heroes of the Indian wars also got their share. Oregon's Name Mystery The exact origin of the name Oregon itself is still a mystery, but late scholarship indicate it niay haverginiafc, ed in the Mississippi valley. A 1765 English document refers to the River of the West as the "Ouragon." It was writ ten by Maj. Robert Rogers in a petition to explore country west of the Great Lakes. ' The first use of "Oregon" itself was by Jonathan Carver in his "Travels Through the Interior Parts of North Amer ica," published in London in 1778. Some historians think he got the name from Maj. Rog ers petition. . A poet William Cullen Bryant-made the name stick in his 1817 poem "Thanatop sis" where he refers to the "Wilderness where flows the Oregon and hears no sound save its own" dashing." Cases can be. made for French fur traders giving the river its name from the French word "Ouragan" meaning "Windstorm." Some historians think it is of Spanish origin, perhaps from the province of Aragon, but there are no records of this. Cape Perpetua and Mece ta Head were named by early Spanish explorers seeking the legendary northwest passage. The river was finally named by a young Boston fur trader, Robert Gray, who discovered its mouth in 1792 and named it after his ship "Columbia." Indian Names Willamette and Multnoamh are both Indian names and Santiam, Molalla, Clackamas, Clatsop Coos and Klamath are all named after Oregon tribes. ' Americans are also represnt ed. President Thomas Jeffer- ! son, who sent Lewis and Clark and city named for him. Polk county was named for President James Polk who was in office when Oregon became a state 100 years ago and the town of Dallas was named for his vice-president, George M. Dallas. Linn, Benton and Douglas counties .were all named for U.S. members of Congress who helped Oregon." Named by Pioneers The origin of , Portland's name is well known. It was named after Portland, Maine, by the toss of a coin between Francis Pettygrove and A. L. Lovejoy. Had Lovejoy won, named - Boston, after Boston, the city would - have been Mass. Albany was named after Al bany, N.Y, Civil war heroes honored Include Gen. U. S. Grant for whom, Grant county was nam ed, and Gen. Phil Sheridan, for Sheridan. Both men serv ed in Oregon before the war. Col. Edward Baker, for whom Baker is' named, resigned a U.S. Senate seat and was kill ed early in the war. ' Another general honored was Gen. Canby who was shot at a "peace conference" in 1873 by Captain Jack, leader of renegade Modoc Indians. Jack was later captured and hanged.
