that most of these stupendous schemes were concocted In the cunning minds of those who made a lifelong study of the subject. They are the ones upon whom these crimes should be fastened—they are the ones who have waxed fat in the grease of loot at the expense of the rising generation of the West."
The timber-looted states of Minnesota,
Wisconsin and Michigan are blamed for
the production of the majority of wholesale looters in the West, and it would seem the contention is borne out by the facts stated in the book. Principal credit for
the suppression of the land frauds is given
to ex-Secretary of the Interior Ethan Allen
Hitchcock, and It Is claimed that his greatest lustre shines forth as a limelight upon the class of enemies he has made by the operation. The book declares that every
scoundrel in the land has denounced him
for doing what was his plain duty as an
honest official, and that If any reward
comes to him, it must be In the future
from the hearts of a grateful people, not
from politicians. Some of the accusations
contained In the book cannot be well Ignored by the executive branch of the National Government, though of course many of the cases described have already been, or are being, investigated and prosecuted. Some of the cases have been "outlawed," but this book is another evidence of the truth that "the statute of limitations" has
no application to history. The story is one
of intrigue throughout, reciting in a most
comprehensive manner the systematic way
in which the lands of the West were looted
in the interests of wealth and unscrupulous syndicates, and all-powerful and equally unscrupulous railroad companies. It gives a "view from behind the scenes."

says, "a plain and simple narrative of the
life of the most commanding personality
In the history of the Pacific Coast, during
the second quarter of the last century."
Although comparatively a young man, ho
was sent out by the Hudson's Bay Company to become the chief factor of that great monopoly In the far Western wilderness, beyond the Rocky Mountains. A
man of action, whose Ideal was Napoleon,
yet just and humane, he soon became the
absolute ruler of the Pacific Coast from
San Francisco to Alaska. For a score of
years he retained this commanding position, the hope and support of all Oregon pioneers, king of a thousand Canadians, autocrat of a hundred thousand Indians.
He laid the cornerstone of the State of
Oregon and the Pacific Northwest.
Of all the men whose life and deeds are an essential part of the history of the Oregon country. Dr. John McLoughlin stands supremely first. Writers on the early settlement of that region make frequent
