The Cowlitz Indian Tribe, a federally recognized tribe of Cowlitz people, is headquartered in Longview.The Long-Bell Lumber Company, led by Robert A. Long, decided to buy a great expanse of timberland in Cowlitz County in 1918.


A total of 14,000 workers were needed to run the two large mills as well as lumber camps that were planned. The number of workers needed was more than a lumber town, or the nearest town, could provide.
