Description: History of Washington - The Rise and Progress of an American ì State

The materials from which alone a history of Washington can be ì written have nowhere been assembled in one collection, with any ì degree of completeness. The State Historical Society has done ì something, but the material it has gathered is not yet arranged so as to be readily available. The State University also has a ì considerable collection which it is steadily and very ì methodically increasing. The State Library has something.

The shelves of the Oregon Historical Society also hold much ì that is as valuable to the historian of Washington as of Oregon, and is equally at his disposal. It is to be regretted ì that the State government has not already made such provision as ì most other States have made for collecting, arranging and ì preserving the materials for its history. The work can be done ì thoroughly and well at very moderate cost, once it is begun in a ì proper way. The greatest need will be for a competent secretary, ì whose heart will be in the work, who has already displayed some ì genius for it, and who has a wide acquaintance among the earlier ì settlers now living.
