He leavea a wile, two mm and one daughter He waa a member of Eugene lodue, r. A. 31., under whose auspices the funeral services were held Honday. John Whiteaker was the first governor of Oiegon under the state conatitution He was elected at the June election in 1H58, and inaugurated on the 8'h of July of the same year, it being believed that theill for the admisaion of Oregon at lainuau panted congress. Iliere waa no n.ilroad or telegraphic communication with Washington, and after a time it was ascertained that the bill lor Oregon's ad mission as a state bad not passed con greas. As soon, however, as the bill did pass, early in 1S59, and official notifies tion was received, Governor Whiteaker assumed the duties of bis office, and was Oregon's chief executive until tbe inaug uration of his successor io 1862. John Whiteaker was born In Dearborn county, Indiana, on the 4th ol May 1820, and w as raised on a farm. He re moved to Ill.nois in early life, and sub sequently to Missouri, where he married Miss N. J. Hargrave in 1847. Attracted hy the mines of California, be came Went alone in 1849 and remained till 1851, when he returned to Missouri i lie next year lie came to Uregon witj hia wife and settled on a farm in Lane county in 1H53. In 1850 be was elected probate judge, and the next year a mem ber ol the territorial legislature. In 1858 he was elected governor of Oregon and served a full term. In the contest for this honor he received 5134 votes to the 4'2V6 cast for E. M. Barnum, his oppon ent, who bad already been high in of rice in the territory, ins term expiring in 18(12, he retired to Eugene. He was elected to the Oregon house of represen tatives in 1SG6, L8 and 1870. In this last sesNiun he was made speaker of the hotiKe. In 1870 he was again called upon to serve the people of Line county an state senator lor a tetm of four years being elected president of the senate at both cessions of the legislature. In 1878 Mr. Whiteaker bad the honor of representing Oregon in the forty-sixth conuress. and after the expiiation of his term he again retired to private life, only to resume public office in 188.), when he was appointed collector of internal reve nue at Portland nnder President Cleve land's first administration. At the close ol his term as collector, he went back to Eugene, where he spent bis remaining days. Governor Wtiiteaker was always an ar dent and consistent democrat in polities, and had a large number of admirers and friends, who looked upon him as one of (be fathers of the democratic party in this state. - As governor of Oregon, Mr. Whiteaker issued what is supposed to have been the 3rst Thanksgiving proclamation in the Northwest. At the time be was severely criticised by the denominational journals lor setting what they considered a bad precedent. The text of this proclama on i as follow j: . THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION. Be tt known, that in conformity with tbe wishes of many citizens of Oregon, I appoint and set apart Thursday, the lNJih j day of December, 1859, as a day to be ! kept for public thanksgiving to be ob I served throughout this state in such I manner as the good people thereof may i deem most appropriate. I Given under my hand at Eugene City, i this 5th day of December, 1859. John Whiteaker. In his inaugural speech, delivered on July 8, 1858, be made the following state ment of bis future policy : "I shall en deavor to keep politics as far removed from my official acts as may be consist ent with tbe circumstances which b ought about my election. It is tbe d ictrine of all parties that the agents of the party in power should be selected from that party which is responsible for the manner in which the government is administered, and my adininintratlon will form no exception lo the general rule." The rno'it romantic Incident in Gov ernor Whiteaker's life and what brought him moal prominently before the country was his Ltrnon ride by special train from Oakland, Cal., to Washington. This ride gave opportunity to all the pajiers In the country for satire and humorous badinage. While elected to the 4th congress, Mr. Whiteaker did not repair to the scene of his duties in time to join in the organization of the houe. In Mrch the democrata discovered that to effect their end one more vote was need ful and that vote must lie ready on the lKth of March. Mr. Whiteaker had al ready sailed from Portland on the steamer Eldur for San Francisco. When the Elder cant anchor off Fobtom street at D o'clock on the morning of the 12th of March, 1879, the agent of the Central j Ptlritic came out in a Whitehall boat and informed Mr. Whiteaker that the Na tional committee bad a special train io waiting at Oakland Mole. He left the ship with his hand baggage and was rowed achore. The ferry-boat had been kept in readinets and 30 minutes later Congresaman Whiteaker was speeding eaatward in an attempt to overtake the overland train which had 25 hours start. After the fastest trip across the conti nent on record at that time be reached the capitol on the morning ol the 18th of March in time to cast the decisive vote lor speaker. Ihecostof this train was over $1,500 and the New York Times of I March 24 contained a long and sarcastic article on the expedients, of the demo cratic party. Governor Whiteaker was always a sup porter of home industry, and many of his official papers advocate very warmly the introduction of a system of manu factories for the working up of Oregon products. One of Lire's Pleasures. There is nothing in life more enjoyable and at tbe same time so beneficial to both mind and body, as traveling. A modern railway journey, intelligently taken, tends to prolong life, break the monotony of existence and acta as a pan acea (or dull care, by takingus oat ol the well worn channels of worldly and busi ness struggles. Before starting upon a trip, whether on business or recreation, it is well to in quire and investigate the various routes, and choose the one nfieiing the best in ducements in the way of comfort and attractions.
