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.

The same might be said of the venerable case, Pennoyer v. Neff.2 Over 100 years after issuing Pennoyer the Supreme Court is still laboring to articulate a coherent doctrine of personal jurisdiction within the framework established by that opinion. Recently, the Court has become particularly interested in personal jurisdiction and has dealt with the issue seven times in the last four years. 3 Yet despite this growing body of case law, the doctrinal underpinnings remain elusive. The Court continues to treat geographic boundaries as central to the interests protected by personal jurisdiction, but has never satisfactorily explained why they are so central or what interest the doctrine of personal jurisdiction is intended to protect.

  • May 2014 the History of the Oregon Department of Agriculture Introduction
    May 2014 The History of the Oregon Department of Agriculture Introduction "History is the witness that testifies to the passing of time; it illumines reality, vitalizes memory, provides guidance in daily life and brings us tidings of antiquity." Cicero, Roman author, orator, & politician (106 BC - 43 BC) Someone once said that the present resembles the past until such point that it doesn't. As riddling as that reads, there is both new ground but also a deep familiarity in the rich history of the Oregon Department of Agriculture. For ODA, certainly there have been fresh, novel challenges and opportunities that never would have been foreseen as recently as a decade ago, much less nine decades in the past. So much has changed with technology, globalization of markets, and shifting demographics within agriculture and the general population. However, it is surprising to see several recurring themes over the years as illustrated in the writings of past directors and others employed by the Oregon Department of Agriculture. The need to increase efforts to keep potentially devastating livestock diseases out of Oregon, taking advantage of Oregon's reputation for high quality products through a brand identification program, coordinating efforts with industry to educate a rapidly urbanized population about the importance of agriculture– these are among points of emphasis in 2014 and beyond that were just as important in the first half of the last century. Agriculture is and has always been one of the cornerstones of Oregon's economy and way of life. ODA has reflected that importance by establishing itself as a vital state agency that continues to serve both the industry and Oregon consumers in a dual role that marries the promotion and development of agriculture with regulatory functions.
