The Mountain of a Thousand Holes Shipwreck Traditions and Treasure Hunting on Oregon’s North Coast CAMERON LA FOLLETTE, DENNIS GRIFFIN, AND DOUGLAS DEUR EURO-AMERICANS in coastal communities conflated and amplified Native American oral traditions of shipwrecks in Tillamook County, increasingly focusing the stories on buried treasure. This focus led to a trickle, and then a procession, of treasure-seekers visiting the northern Oregon coast, reach- ing full crescendo by the mid to late twentieth century. The seekers’ theo- ries ranged from the fairly straightforward to the wildly carnivalesque, with many bizarre permutations. Neahkahnie Mountain and its beaches became the premier treasure-hunting sites in Oregon, based on the mountain’s prominence in popular lore, linked to unverified stories about the wreck of a Spanish ship.

  • Surveys for Marbled Murrelets in Potential Habitat in the Oregon Coast Range
    Surveys for Marbled Murrelets in Potential Habitat in the Oregon Coast Range S. Kim Nelson Oregon Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit Department of Fisheries and Wildlife Oregon State University, Nash Hall 104 Corvallis, OR 97331-3803 Draft Final Report 2005 Prepared for the: The Trustees Council of the New Carissa Oil Spill and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Suggested Citation: Nelson, S.K. 2005. Surveys for Marbled Murrelets in Potential Habitat in the Oregon Coast Range. Oregon Cooperative Fish and Wildlife Research Unit, Oregon State University, Department of Fisheries and Wildlife, Corvallis, OR. 26 pp. ABSTRACT To mitigate for the injury and scale restoration for Marbled Murrelets (Brachyramphus marmoratus) from the New Carissa oil spill, information on murrelet habitat use, nest density and site characteristics was needed. We conducted intensive surveys for Marbled Murrelets in 10 sites along the Oregon Coast between 17 May and 3 August 2001. We also established vegetation plots within each site to describe the habitat features known to be important to murrelets. The specific objectives of this project were to: (1) determine the status (presence, absence or occupancy) of murrelets in each site by conducting dawn surveys; (2) characterize the quality of nesting habitat within each site by estimating the number of platform trees and the abundance moss or other substrate on each platform; and (3) estimate nest density within each site. We detected murrelets in 100% of the sites surveyed, with occupied behavior observed in seven sites and presence documented in the remaining three sites. The number of total and occupied detections was correlated with the number of platforms.

Highlighting major political figures, campaigns, ballot measures, and the history of legislative sessions, Tom Marsh traces the evolution of Oregon from incorporated territory to a state at the forefront of national environmental and social movements. From Jason Lee’s first letter urging Congress to take possession of the Oregon Country to John Kitzhaber’s precedent-setting third term as governor, from the land frauds of the early 20th century to the state’s land-use planning goals, from the Beach Bill to the Bottle Bill, this book tells Oregon’s story. Featuring interesting trivia, historical photographs, and biographical sketches of key politicians, To the Promised Land is an essential volume for readers interested in Oregon’s history. TOMMARSH taught high school history in Oregon for twenty-eight years. He represented eastern T O M M A R S H Washington County in the state legislature from 1975 to 1979, and has participated in numerous political campaigns over a span of nearly fifty years.

  • Nativism and the Ku Klux Klan in Oregon's 1922 Election
    THE FOOL OF THE FAMILY: NATIVISM AND THE KU KLUX KLAN IN OREGON’S 1922 ELECTION by EMILY PELLEGRINI A THESIS Presented to the Department of History and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2014 An Abstract of the Thesis of Emily Pellegrini for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of History to be taken June 2014 The Fool OfThe Family: Nativism & The Ku Klux Klan In Oregon's 1922 Election Approved: ~ ~ Dr. Marsha We: ~ This thesis examines the intersection of national nativist trends with local peculiarities in Oregon's 1922 election. A surge of nativism in the United States during the post World War I period aided in the rapid expansion of the Second Ku Klux Klan, which came to be the prevailing political force in Oregon in the early 1920s. The KKK did not bring nativism to Oregon; rather, the state's unique social and political culture, coupled with the refusal of sitting Governor, Ben W. Olcott to recognize the Klan as a threat to social harmony, aided in the achievement of unprecedented Klan success in Oregon. The scope of this success is witnessed in the 1922 election, which resulted in a victory for a Klan backed governor, Walter M. Pierce, and the passage of the nation's first Compulsory Education Bill. To understand the prevailing sentiments before, during, and after the election this thesis analyzes the correspondence and speeches of both governors, as well as contemporary newspapers. As Oregon attempted to answer questions of the relationship between state and identity plaguing the nation it took actions that retain significance not only for Oregonians, but all Americans.

This would be an unprecedented and ambitious project without any directly comparable example in the United States. In order to better understand the challenge, this research report examines specific examples of road, path and trail building in this and the last century in the USA. America has a long history of road building from the wagon trails and railroads of the 19th century to the highways and freeways of the 20th century. Long pathways and trails specifically designed for human-powered travel have not been a priority for infrastructure investment due to the rise of the automobile. As a result, there is no coherent and intentionally built network of these types of paths. The successes and failures of all types of trails, pathways, and even highways, can inform our decision-making about whether and how to move forward with the Oregon Coast Pathway (OCP).

    (OREcC !99 f.. OSU Through the 20th Century If a graduate of Oregon Agricultural College from the early 20th century were transported in time to the present day, he or she would scarcely recognize Oregon State University at the close of the century. Oregon State has been transformed from a small agriculturally oriented college in a somewhat remote portion of the western United States to a Carnegie I research university with internationally renowned programs. During the 1899-1900 academic year, Oregon State's enrollment was 405 students (398 from Oregon); its faculty consisted of 28 members. At the end of this century, OSU's enrollment is approaching 15,000 students (from every state and nearly 100 countries); the faculty consists of 2,200 members. Listed below are the major highlights of OSU's history in the 20th century.* 1901- First Branch Experiment Station establish at Union (15 miles southeast of La Grande). 1904 -Approval given by the Board of Regents to allow international students to attend the college for the first time. 1907 -William Jasper Kerr appointed by the Board of Regents as the sixth president of the Agricultural College of the State of Oregon. Kerr, who served as president until 1932, led the college through a 25-year period of growth in terms of students, faculty, academic and research programs, and physical facilities.First professional degree conferred; an M.S. degree in engineering. 1910- First reference to "Beavers" as an athletic team name. 1928 Memorial Union, first privately funded building on campus, completed. Building dedicated June 1, 1929. 1929 -The Oregon State Board of Higher Education assumed control of all state (public) institutions of higher education in Oregon on July 1 after the Legislative Assembly approved the Oregon Unification Bill, which provided for the unification of the state-supported institutions of higher education under a single board.
