dc.description.abstract | The coming of the twentieth century witnessed the continuation of the movement of settlers to the western states of this nation. the movement having gained its greatest impetus in the discovery of gold in California in 1849. The discovery of gold in the Bohemia Mountain District of the Cascade Mountains near Cottage Grove, Oregon, in 1858 had also attracted settlers. Not all of those that came were attracted by the prospect of finding gold. Many came to work in and develop industries and business concerns that were far less glamorous, but yet offered a promising future as the economy of Oregon developed. | en_US |
