Reld Is milking a thorough canva of
the county and an Improved standard of
the fruit of the county Is expected a the
product of hi Inlmr.
While In the city Mr. Reld distributed
copies of the newly enacted horticultural
law, which I as follows:

"Approved by the Governor."
Meantime, however, he will not resume
hi f4 in the United Btate senate,
The conviction and sentencing of Sen
ator Mitchell doe not render hi office
vacant. Thl principle waa determined
in the Burton case. If the aSupreme
Court affirm the judgment of the trial
court, It act would have the effect of
vacating the office. Otherwise the Gov
ernor will have no power to appoint a
successor to Mitchell, The defense ha
six month In which to make an appeal
to the United Btate Circuit Court of
Appeal, and thl will most likely be
done within the next few month. There
I a I way a question ot Jurisdiction,
where an appeal I taken direct to the
Supreme Court, and an appeal to the
next lower court would make the procee
of appeal more regular.
Senator Mitchell will, unles his con
viction 1 affirmed, hold office for two
more year. A decision I expected by
next March.

Thomaa Watt Returns To Find Estate,
Administered Upon.
After haying been mourned aa dead for

Thomas Watts. A former resident of this
city, but now living at Portland. has
been re-Jolned by his wife. Mary Watt,
who during the Interim following her hus
band's departure from this city seven
year ago ha considered herself a widow.
In 18SS Watt joined a party of argo
naut that went to the Alaskan gold
fields td try their fortunes. Failing to
keep up a correspondence with his fam
ily. Watts was concluded to be dead and
was so considered b" h's relative, The
missing man had left sotit? property In
thl county from whict. however, there
waa received but a email lnconi? and
without the appointment of an sdmlnls- J
Irator the property cottld hot be disposed
of. The wife went fd net fdfrrtef hmrle- in
the East shortly after her husband's un
accountable disappearance, and remained
with her relative until a few month
ago. when having received not a word
from Watta, she returned to this city for
fh purpose of having her husband's es
tate administered upon in order that the
property might be disposed of. Appli
cation for the Issuance of letter of ad
ministration were made by Mrs. Watt
In the Clackamas county probate court
on June 25 and on July 1, last, the ap
pointment was duly made, the supposed
widow being named as administratrix.
But it develops that during the absence
of his wife In the East. Watts returned
to Oregon, when, upon tearing that his
wife had left a number of years befor
for point in the East, he located at Port
land where he first learned of his sup
posed decease In the publication of the '
required notice concerning the appoint
ment of an administratrix of his estate.
As a sequal to the reunion, Watts is !
now consulting counsel as to the proper
stops to be taken to effect a legal ressur-
rectlon.
In Five Lear Census Show Increase of
Nearly Twenty Pc
Cnt.
Much ha been said and written of lat
concerning the growth of Tacoma, but
If the population of that city ha lncreaa- .
ed any more in proportion during the
last five year than ha Oregon City,
then the city on the Sound ha been go
ing some.
Assessor Nelson and his field deputies
are rapidly completing the task at list
ing the property of the county and at
the same time taking the census which
will show an enormous gain, both In this
city and throughout the entire county.
A ha been stated, the final figure a
to population have not been complied,
but enough I known from the figure at
hand to Intelligently predict a surpris
ing showing as to the growth of both
Oregon City and Clackamas county In this
regard during the last half -decade.
In the government census, the popula
tion of Oregon City In 1900 wa publish
ed a a trifle more than 3100 but the
statistics now In the possession of As
sensor Nelson will give the city an enum
eration exceeding 3500. A similar in
crease will be disclosed in the growth of
the county, jthe population f which
from the census now being completed,
will closely approximate 30,000.
This I a good showing for both Ore
gon City and Clackamas county. Hun
dreds of new settlers have reached West
ern Oregon during the last five years
and the enlarged population of both city
and county 1 unmistakable evidence that
thl section Is getting It share of the
new comer. And why should such not
be the case. There are Innumerable ad
vantages and inducement offered the
Intending ettler right here In Clacka
mas county whether he be a laborer-or a
capitalist. There la amille room for
hundreds of additional settler and this
section is going to get them.
In this connection some aplendld mis
sionary work will soon be inaugurated
by the Oregon City Board of Trade which
Is causing to be printed 25,000 32-paga
pamphlets, advertising the resources and
advantage of thl section of the state.
These will be distributed In the East.
While tho city and county have grown
much In the last five years, a still' great
er growth may be expected during the
next five year. And with this Increas
ed population will com Increased needs
In the way of factories, etc., by which
the enlarged demand for pr-qduet
may be supplied. Foremost ftm6ftg these
are a cannery, and a creamery. These
will no doubt be supplied by some of the
capital that will accompany the new
comers. In quest "of desirS1 Investment.
With the Increase in population nt
is sure to continue there wilt be offered
the opportunity of making Clackamas
bounty what It Is destined to be the
foremost county of the state agricultur
ally and In a manufacturing sense. .('
FOREST FIRE IN THE FOOTHILLS.
Flames, However, Are Confined to Brush
and Timber of Littls Value.
A forest fire, one-half mile In width
and already having covered an flera one,
mile in length, is raging this Week at
the head of Canyon Creek In the foothill
east of Wllholt, this county, and to the,
vicinity of James. Report sf the Are,
which ha-? been burning for three days.
was brought to this city Wednesday by
bee Wright, ft Liberal.
The fire started the first of the week",
presumably from a camp fire, on the
Hungate homestead owned by Helvie &
Jones. Only underbrush and second
growth timber are being consumed, the
flames having not reached any of the
valuable heavy timber. The present
course of the fire ranges towards the
summit through an unsettled district t.nd
except the wind shifts, the flames wilt
spend themselves In brush that is of
no value.
This Is the first fire that has been re
ported this season in this locality, the
vigilance of the government forest rang
ers and the stringent legislation recent
ly enacted in this state regarding the
starting of fires in the forest having
greatly reduced the danger to property in
the careless starting of fires by campers
and the burning of slashing by settlers.

Consequently hud Judge De Haven
chosen to Impose sentence on each point,
ns he had a perfect light to do, the max
imum sentence which he could have in
flicted on Senator Mitchell was $50,000
fine and ten years' Imprisonment.
Senator Mitchell will not begin serv
ing sentence Immediately. If he serves
sentence ut all It will be only after the
United States Supreme Court, to which
he will appeal, sustains the Judgment
against him. Until sentence Is Imposed
a Judgment Is not perfected, and only af
ter the pronouncing of sentence can an
appeal be taken.
Senator Mitchell gave bond of $2000-j-the
sum fixed by the court July 24 and
will go about his affairs as tiRiial until
a decision Is rendered on his appeal.
