  • LOCATION of IDAHO's TERRITORIAL CAPITAL Number 344 December 24, 1964
    344 IDAHO STATE HISTORICAL SOCIETY REFERENCE SERIES LOCATION OF IDAHO'S TERRITORIAL CAPITAL Number 344 December 24, 1964 On December 24, 1864, Boise became the capital of the territory of Idaho. But although the act of the territorial legislature was clear and simple, the situation was not, and the story surrounding it is typical of politics of that day. When the territory of Idaho was established by Congress, March 4, 1863, the law provided that the first territorial legislature should select a permanent capital. Originally, before the new territory was set up, the weight of population had been in the north and the principal city there was Lewiston. When the first territorial governor, William Henson Wallace, reached the territory in July, 1863, it was logical for him to establish his office in Lewiston and proclaim the organization of the territory from that town. It was also to Lewiston that he summoned the first territorial legislature in December, 1863. But for a little more than a year the center of population had been shifting. Gold had been struck in the Boise Basin in the summer of 1862, and the new mines had drawn population from north to south. When the census, on which apportionment was based, was taken in September, 1863, the area around Boise already had far more people than did the northern mines around Lewiston. The trend continued in coming years. That first legislature in Lewiston in 1863 did not face the issue of locating a definite territorial capital. Thus all through 1864, Lewiston was the temporary seat of the territorial government, but there was no permanent capital.

  • The Naming of Idaho
    The Naming of Idaho Idaho’s naming is cloaked in legends of Indian words and the wishes of early white settlers to extol the territory’s beauty as the ‘gem of the mountains.’ Efforts to draw out the facts over the years have shed some light on what occurred, but the exact source of the name ‘Idaho’ is still unknown. History has linked Idaho’s state and territorial name to the formation and naming of another western territory, Colorado, in 1861. The mining community of “Idahoe,” better known as Idaho Springs, Colorado, where gold was discovered in 1859, was an early use of ‘Idaho’ as a place name. In a partisan debate at territorial conventions in the Pike’s Peak mining camps, the Democrat-favored name ‘Jefferson’ territory triumphed over the Republican-favored name ‘Idaho.’ However, when Republicans came to power nationally in 1860, the ‘Jefferson Territory’ delegate to Congress, Beverly D. Williams decided to go with the name ‘Idaho,’ which he had been told was an Indian word meaning ‘gem of the mountains.’ Washington Territory, 1860 To his dismay, Williams later learned that ‘Idaho’ was a word made up by someone involved in the territorial process, probably the first Pike’s Peak delegate to Congress, George M. Willing. At that point, Williams requested that Congress drop ‘Idaho’ and use a previously proposed name, ‘Colorado.’ Although ‘Idaho’ was not used for Colorado Territory, it was still discussed as a naming option in Washington Territory and in Washington D.C. where decisions were being made about the West. Most participants in the territorial process seem to have quickly forgotten that ‘Idaho’ was not an Indian name, and an ‘Idaho’ bill was introduced in Congress for the new territory northwest of Colorado.
