Summary "The Quarterly of the Oregon Historical Society, Vol. IV" is a historical publication edited by Frederic George Young and written in the early 20th century. This volume compiles a series of articles and essays on various aspects of Oregon's history, including educational development, economic growth, and notable figures in the region's pioneering past. The overarching theme celebrates the significance of the Lewis and Clark expedition and its lasting impact on the cultures and territories of the Pacific Northwest. The opening of this volume presents a detailed discussion on the importance of the Lewis and Clark Centennial, highlighting its dual mission of both celebrating the historical achievements of the expedition and illuminating the ongoing social and economic challenges in Oregon. The text begins by conveying the excitement surrounding the Centennial event planned for 1905, drawing parallels between the significance of Lewis and Clark's exploration and the broader narrative of America’s expansion into the Pacific Northwest. It emphasizes the necessity for public participation in the exposition to foster a national identity and promote progress in the region, recognizing the extraordinary landscape and resources available in Oregon that could shape future developments.
