    ~bt ~a~bington ;!}i~torical ~uarttrl!, THE BACKGROUND OF EARLY WASHINGTON BANKING No phase of our economic life can be independent of political circumstances and geographical environment. For this reason each locality in the country, while its institutions contain certain elements of our common heritage, tends to develop characteristics of its own. This truth is strikingly, if not uniquely, exemplified in the history of the Oregon country. Hither had come a spirit of independence which was to be confronted with strange forces, natural, economic and political. The first of these is typified by the necessity of hew­ ing out homes in the forests, the second by the struggle with the British-Canadian fur interests over the exploitation of the natural resources north of the Columbia, and the third by the semi-political control on the part of these same interests. The subsequent play of these forces resulted in a singular blending of self-assurance and co­ operation which made for community strength and development that ordinarily could be compelled only by sheer necessity. It is difficult to imagine any phase of the history of Washington dating back to the early settlements which does not devote some at­ tention to Oregon. The economic development of the neighboring state was begun somewhat earlier than that of Washington, and the political circumstances at the time were such as to make the two commonwealths inseparable. The domination of the Hudson's Bay Company, coupled with the fact that the earlier American settle­ ments were in the Willamette Valley, placed Washington in a some­ what dependent position.

  • Constitutional and Other Legal Arguments Against Oregon SB 1551 Dana Allen 1065 Academy St. Mt. Angel, OR 97362 February 5
    Dana Allen 1065 Academy St. Mt. Angel, OR 97362 February 5, 2014 Senator Floyd Prozanski, Senator Betsy close, Senator Michael Dembrow, Senator Jeff Kruse, Senator Arnie Roblan Committee On Judiciary 2014 Oregon State Senate Dear Senators: I would like to bring to your attention some legal issues concerning the 2014 Oregon Senate Bill 1551 and I am voicing my objection to this Bill. The majority of SB 1551 runs afoul of both the Oregon Constitution and the U.S. Constitution and at least one Oregon Statute. Specifically, please refer to: a. Constitution of Oregon, Article I, Section 9. Unreasonable searches. b. U.S. Constitution, Fourth Amendment. Unreasonable Searches. c. ORS 133.535, Permissible objects of search and seizure. d. Constitution of Oregon, Article I, Section 15. Foundation principles of criminal law. e. Constitution of Oregon, Article I, Section 20. Equal Protection Clause. f. U.S. Constitution, Fourteenth Amendment. Equal Protection Clause. g. Constitution of Oregon, Article I, Section 34. Involuntary Servitude Clause. h. U.S. Constitution, Thirteenth Amendment. Involuntary Servitude Clause. I would also like to bring to your attention a quote from the Oregon Supreme court case of State v. Borowski. The ORS brought to question in that case was declared unconstitutional in toto. “….we can infer that, had the legislature known that a bill …. implicated serious constitutional questions, it would have chosen to avoid the issue entirely.” If ORS 174.040 (Severability) is applied to SB 1551 then there is no part of this Bill that can be enacted. For further information, please refer to the included document which contains specific arguments and references to Supreme Court opinions.
