STATISTICS OF OREGON. 107 Treasury Department in an official report of the mineral re- sources of the Pacific coast : "The Columbia, Willamette, Snake river and Pen d' Oreille or Clark's fork, are the four principal navigable riv- ers, to which may be added the names of rivers navigated for short distances during the season of high water, as fol- lows : Cowlitz river, emptying into the Columbia ; Yamhill, Tualitin, and Santiam, emptying into the Willamette ; and Clearwater, emptying into the Sn...ake river. All these rivers have been and are now being successfully navigated by steamers. '" The Columbia is the principal river, is obstructed at dif- ferent points by falls and rapids of such a character as to prevent its continued navigation. This great river is divided into four navigable sections. The first is from its mouth to the Cascades, a distance of 160 miles. As far up as the mouth of the Willamette it is a broad, deep river, navigable at all seasons by the largest vessels that cross the bar at its mouth.
