On i Pares to All Undertaker & Embalmer or at Cigar Store opposite' Bank WM. BARLOW IS DEAD ANOTHER FOUNDER OF CLACKAMAS COUNTY COM. Croited the Plains to Oregon In 185. Funeral Occurred at Oregon City On Wednesday Morning. Wlllam Barlow, another of Clackamas county's pioneers, died Monday morning at hla home at Barlow. Death resulted from Injuries and complications attend ing an accident In this city one day last week, by which he suffered tha fracture of his hip. Mr. Barlow waa a pioneer of 154, and a man who waa prominently connected with the growth and development of this section of Western Oregon. lie waa born In Marlon county, Indiana October 2. 1122, his ancestor coming from Scot land to American previous to tha Revolu tion and settling In Virginia.. In 1H6. with hla parents, he started for Oregon. Mr. Barlow, Sr., had been a frontiersman and never lacked for cour age. When the Immigrant train reached The Dalles, which marked - tha end of team and wagon travel at that time, the greater number of the company re fused to proceed further. But Mr. Bar low mounted one of his wagons and said: "I have ataru-d for Oregon, and I am going on. Let all follow who want to." He liH'l six wuaons In charge and was Jolnt-il by nine others. Oregon City was reached Chrlxtma Eve. Aft-r n-aclilng On-gnn City, the subject of this sketch engaged In land operations and became the owner of aeveral farms, and was the founder of the town of Caiu-muh, being the partner of Sir. Hegs at that time. In liG2 he married Sirs. Mititlm Ann Allen, widow of Dr. Allen, who came t Oregon In 150 and died shortly after hla arrival here. Fol lowing his marrl?e he removed to the fine farm at Barlow where he remained until when he again returned to Oregon City and auccessfullly engaged in the general merchandise business for nine years, retiring to his farm at Barlow In 1870, where he has spent his declining years. The deceased waa one of the repre sentative citizens of the state, and did his part towards founding the state of Oregon. He was a man of large busl nesa dealings, hiving In his life time done more than 1100.000 In contract work for the railroad company. In 1891, he platted the town of Barlow. Mr. Barlow was a staunch Republican. Socially he was for many years an hon ored member of the Masonic fraternity, undvr whose, auspices the funeral was conducted In this city Wednesday morn ing at the First Baptist church. The deceased la survived by a wife and two children Mary 8- Barlow, of Barlow, and Casslus V. Barlow, of Oakland. Cul. 'NOTIFY THE CORONER." Body of Young Portland Suicide Recov ered at Oregon City. The body of a young man was dis covered floating In the Willamette river at the O. W. P. Ry. dock at Canemah 8unUy morning. The remains proved to be those of Frank Fulton, of Portland, whose Identity waa disclosed by a diary In his pocket, in which was Inscribed his name and other data pertaining to himself, with Instructions that in case of death or serious Illness to notify the cor oner. The notebook gave the residence of de ceased as Room 2i. Raleigh building. Portland. Oregon. From the diary It was evident that the young man, who waa aged about 30 years, waa employed as solicitor. The body had evidently been in the river about ten days. Ten days ago a young man answering the description of the recovered body was seen near where the body waa found at a late hour at night, seated on the edge of the wharf. Coroner Holman Jook charge of the remains, over which an Inquest waa held, the Jury finding that deceased came to hla death from causes unknown, presumably from drowning with suicidal Intent. The remains of young Fulton were given burial Monday afternoon at the expenae of the county, none of tha rel atives or friends of the young man mak ing request for the body. LAND OFFICE MAY BE MOVED. May Be Installed In New Federal Build ing at Portland. A special from Washington, D. C, to the Portland Oregonlan, waa published 8unday as follows: "If there Is sufficient room In the new Federal building at Portland, It Is prob able that the local land office will be re moved from Oregon City to Portland, Such a move as this has been recom mended by Special Agent Linnen, and la approved by Surveyor General Daly and Inspector Green. "There are various reasons for desir ing the change. Portland la now the central point In the Oregon land district, and a vast majority of tha persona having business In the local land office have to pass through Portland on their way to Oregon City. More than that, the gov ernment now paya 1360 a year rent for the building occupied by the Oregon City land office. Its owner, Henry Wetnhard, of Portland, refuaea to reduce the price. In Porland tha Item of rental would be saved. "It Is believed by land office officials that sufficient room can be found In tha Federal building at Portland, If the En gineers' office will surrender some of the space It now occupies bur apparently does not require. It appears that an Import ant reason for urging the removal of this office to Portland la that It would be removed from the eaay reach of attor neys, timber locators and others, who now have offices adjoining the land office, and who make a business of keeping tab on every person who transacts business therein In order to solicit their work, etc., which Is not considered In the best Interests of the service. Moreover, It la deemed desirable to have the land office under the same roof as the surveyor general's office. In the Interest of econ omy nl time and convenience. The gen eral land office will look Into the facta, with a view to determining whether the change shall be made." Register A. 8. Dresser, of Oregon City land office, was seen and In reply to In quiry concerning proposed removal of local land office from Oregon City to Portland, said he had received nothing of an official nature from Washington as to the proposed change. People of Ore gon City are surprised at proposed change In location of land office and will strive to retain office here. CLACKAMAS COUNTY COURT. Business Transacted at Regular June Term.
