Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Admission of the State of Oregon to the Union, 1909 As the Legislature of 1907 made no provision for observing the Semi-Centennial of the Statehood of Oregon, and as the Legislature of 1909 would not convene until January 11th, on June 26th, 1908, the Board of Directors of the Oregon Historical Society called a special meeting for July 1st, "To consider and take action on celebrating the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Admission of Oregon as a State into the Union." At this meeting Frederick V. Holman, President of the Historical Society, was appointed a committee of one to secure a speaker for that occasion. He performed that duty by corresponding with a number of distinguished gentlemen in different portions of the states east of the Rocky Mountains, and at length, about the first of December, secured the consent of Hon. Frederick N. Judson, LL. D., an eminent lawyer of St. Louis, Mo., to prepare the anniversary address. Meanwhile President Holman laid the matter of this celebration before Governor George E. Chamberlain, briefly outlining the purposes of the Society in thus taking the initiative in this matter, and also apprised him of what had been done. The Governor heartily approved the action of the Society in the premises, and agreed to do what he could in securing the co-operation of the Legislature in the proposed celebration. The Legislature convened in its Twenty-fifth Biennial Session on Monday, January 11, 1909, whereupon House Joint Resolution No. 1 was introduced by Hon. C. N. McArthur, Speaker of the House, as follows: House Joint Resolution No. 1. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
