	note = {Extensive account of a trip down the Siletz river, describing the river, the bay, and the surrounding countryside.  Boosterism and ethnocentrism are typical of the period. Interesting descriptions of the bay in its natural state. "The northeastern part of the Siletz bay is covered with storm-driven drift of great dimensions." "It is claimed more salmon enter the Siletz bay than any other stream south of the Columbia." This article also reveals the raw greed with which the rest of the state viewed the Siletz lands.  "Where the river strikes the bay, on either hand extend rich, grassy lands, standing above high tide, most excellent for grazing purposes, but as yet practically unused.  All these lands are owned by the Indians. To a white man they would be of almost incalculable value."},

	note = {Written just a few years after the central Oregon Coast was opened for settlement, and when the Siletz watershed was still part of Benton County, Fagan{\textquoteright}s history gives a good look at the beginnings of villages and commerce in the area. Although the author{\textquoteright}s ethnocentrism may make the reader cringe, there is an honest expression of contemporary sentiments. Chapter 35 (geography) and 43 (The Siletz Indian Reservation) are of particular interest.  "A few miles north of Yaquina bay is the Siletz Reservation, a tract of one hundred and seventy-five thousand acres of fine open country upon which about six hundred Indians are located. This territory is looked upon with longing and covetous eyes by settlers, who hope for the removal of the aboriginal with keen expectancy." (p.300)},
