REVERSE TEXT: OREGON
THE first white men to explore the coast of Oregon were the Spaniards, Ferrello, in 1543, and Aguilla in 1603. Captain Cook made discoveries here in 1778, and Vancouver in 1792. The Hudson Bay Company moved into Oregon with its trading-posts, and filled the country with adventurous fur-traders. In 1789 Spain erected forts on the coast and seized British trading vessels as trespassers, but in the following year she was forced to concede that English traders and settlers should have equal rights with the Spaniards in the northwestern country. The American claim to possession of Oregon is from the discovery of the Columbia River in 1792 by Capt. Robert Gray, in the Boston ship Columbia, and its exploration from its source to the sea by Lewis and Clark in 1805, and on the original settlement of Astoria in 1811. To these are added the Spanish title which passed to the United States by the treaty of 1819. Emigrants from the States had reached Oregon in 1841-42, and were followed in 1843 by a caravan of 200 wagons and 875 people from Missouri. The Hudson Bay Company's Canadian trappers and their Indian wives and half-breed children formed a large element, and it was not until 1860 that they abandoned Fort Van Vancouver on the Columbia River. The overland immigration poured thousands of Americans into Oregon, but many of them were drawn away by the California gold discoveries.
