THE LAW, IK EARLY DAT3-
Unwritten Hiatory of the Pioneer Lawyers '
of AlUny. j
One of the - most interesting
chapters in the early history of
Albany, and in fact of the entire
Northwest, has never been writ
ten. It is that chapter w hich, if
written, would tell us something
of the trials, privations and dilli
culties encountered by the pioneers
ho eng.iged in the practice of law
or wore the judicial ermine on the
bench. Lawyers, especially in
those days, had a hard road
to travel. They were travelers in
a land not "Mowing with milk and
honey.'' They were hewing and
building under ditlicnlties. They
were laying down the niud-siils,
anil groiind-tloor of a structure,
the towering proportions of which
are but dimly seen. Tools, mater
ials and convenience were scarce.
I r. a new country where founda
tions were to he laid and taberna
cles to be built in the wiMerne.se,
lawyers were the master-workmen.
It must be remembered that law
yers in those days were scarce.
Clients were poor and few in num
bers. Access to a library was
almost impossible, and a lawyer
was ' considered well equipped,
who had in his ollice a copy of the
"Donation Act," an old edition of
I'.lackatone and few volumes of
Patent Otlice lieorts.
In l.sfiO the only lawyers in Al
bany were Judge J. C. Powell and
II. Cranor. George Helm was a
law student in the orlice of the
Inter, and this constituted ti.e
towns legal fraternity. The seat
of justice was strictly a pioneer
structure, the court house being a
frame building of octagon shape,
standing on the lot where the resi
lience of Judge L. Flinn now
stands. This served the ends of
justice until ISM, when it was
hurneti dow ii, destroying all the
county papers w hich were not in
the diminutive new safe, which
served as a vault, and the records
in it were so badly scorched that
they had to be rebound.
It was during the in e moral year
of lsf.0 that the famous "Cayuse"
ticket nourished in Oregon. Dave
Logan ran for congressman, on
that ticket and was defeated by
Geo. K. Shields, democrat. In
Linn county that year the demo
crats were defeated for once. No
convention was held by tlie
"Cayuse'' men. Judge J. C.
Powell, Anderson fox, J. H.
Foster and a few other leaders,
simply met with a representative
from Iheoulside preeincts ami set
up a ticket. They worked like
beavers at the polls and did not
allow a single voter ti remain at
home. The entire ticket was
elected except one, but the vote
was close, the majorities bi iug for
the most part li-es than half a
dozen. Voters were scarce in
those days and every ballot
counted.
The political gatherings were
not large, and were attended by no
brass bauds or big demonstral ions,
but they were characterized by
earliest, eletpient speeches.
In I5,;2 the I'nion pmlv sup
planted the "Cayuse" ticket. It
yas composed "I rcpuiilicaiis and
las men or war democrats.
liiltVK. P. Poise was eected dis
trict jiifeean.l Judge J.-C. Powell
county judge, James F.lkius sii :
ceeded I. .Mansfield as county
clerk, defeating him by l;I votes.
The county' cominissiuueis were,
O. W. (Wad) Richardson, of the
Forksof the Sanliain, and Joseph
Hamilton of the Oakville district.
Flias Walters was count)' treas
urer, aud T. A. L'iggs was sherilf.
J. II. Foster had then just com
pleted the lirst brick structure
in Albany, which is the two story
luiildiiig now occupied by the
HtKAl I) otlice. The octagon court
house being in ashes, this build
ing was used as a court house,
t here was no county jail and a
murderer named Pate, who had
killed a fellow-chopper a few miles
below town was chi ined down to
the floor of the county clerk's
ollice, 'n ich was in the front rooms
of the building. Pale was tried
convicted and hung in the good
old way, according to due process
of law.
The first counly jail was a slout
Iok structure, which stood iimu
the banks of the classic Calapooia,
near w here the residence of Mrs.
Tate now stands.
No big fortunes were made in
those times in the practice of law.
Nearlv all attorneys, in order to
make ends meet, assisted the
settlers in filing nolilications and
proofsof donation land claims, ami
when the home-bugle sounded fjr
assistance in suppressing the In
dian hostilities lawvers, judges,
and citizens aiike went to the
front, and, if history lc true, their
banners were never seen
trailing in the dust.
In iMil' the building of the pres
ent brick court house was com
menced, but it was not (hushed
until lsiio, at a cost of $::r,000. By
this time the town was assuming a
resjiectahle growth, and other
lawyers and business men
located here, to he numbered with
the pioneer citizens. Among the
attorneys who followed in succes
sive years were, N. P.. Humphrey,
Jiidue L. Flinn. J. W. Baldwin.
M. A. Baker, I.. Bilveu, II. Br ant,
D. M. 1 -onlay, S. A. Johns, J. K.
Weaterford, Charles K. Wolvertoii.
.1. J. Whitney, D. It. N. Black
burn, Geo. P.. Chamberlain, P. S.
Strahan, L. II. Montanye, II. II.
Hewitt, who were likewise fol
lowed by others hi more recent
years, until to-lav Aloany can
Ixiast of as able an array oi legal
talent as any city in the state.
It must not be stipsed that the
pioneer lawyers of Oregon were
inferior in point of talent or other
wise. On the contrary they were
men of ability. Like all Oregon
pioneers.! hey ossessed one charac
teristic which always commands
respect and admiration. They
were self-reliant, fearless, and in
dependent, loyal to their clients
aud to the grow ing empire of the
new Northwest.
As has been said, what though
on homely fare they dined wore
hodden-gray and big shoes ; they
left behind" them foot-prints on
the sands of til le, which others
niiubt well imitate.
AN IMPOKTAXI LAW.
One that Relates to Judgments Rendered
iu the U. 3. Courts, Dockets. Etc
Heretofore anyone buying veal
estate in any county in the state,
in ordei to find out whether the
title to it was clear, was obliged to
sent to the United States to find
out if there was any judgment hen
on record against the property in
that court, as there had never been
any provision made for nicking a
record ot the judgment liens oi I lie
United States courts in any other
ollice in the state.
I In A Mirnul 1 1 U Lmiirriiua
passed an act, chapter 7'-'!', volume
z;, statutes at large, page A14, pro
viding that any slate, ii it saw fit
to do so, could regulate the docket
ing of judgments rendered in the
United SUtes courts, and author
izing transciipts thereof to be
made anp recorded in the several
counties of the state, in the same
manner aud with the same etlect
as the state provides for the dock
eting of judgments rendered in its
own courts, and for the tiling of
Iranscrlpts thereof in the several
counties.
A bill introduced by Senator
ilhs has been passed by the
present legislature, by which this
state avails itself ot the power
which congress has granted it over
tlie judgments and decrees render
ed in tlie United States courts.
After the law goes into effect a
judgment rendered and docketed
in the United States courts in
Portland will be a lien upon the
real estate of the debtor in that
countv only, ami the lien will not
extend beyond that county, aniens
the judgment creditor takes a cer
tified copy of the docket entry and
has this filed and docketed in the
office of the county clerk of any
other county in which the debtor
may have real estate upon which
Ihe judgment creditor may wish
to secure a lien. Captain damson,
clerk of the United States courts,
has procured a line set of bxiks
and is now getting up a direct and
cross index of judgments, decrees
and liens that leave been rendered
in the United States courts.

Several of the creditors of the

Aurora, Illinois, reading some
thinglike this; "Death in our
family caused me to leave so sud
denly. Please send my bill here
and I will pay the same. Signed.

is doubtful if the festive Madison
is in Illinois, or that he would pay
a bill, unless it was with some of
the counterfeit money, which it is
said he has been handling.

The way they perform the high
way act down in Coos county is
t hus related by tiie Sun, of Marsh
field, the initial number of which
is on our table: "Within the
past two or three weeks we have
heard of three instances of persons
being stood up on our streets, and
all of them in nearly the same
l'jcality. The last case reported
occured on Tuesday night last, and
the victim was an employe of this
office. 1 Ie was proceeding leisurely
up A street toward his room and,
when in front of the China store
a wiiite man stepped ont from the
doorway of that building and, pre
sented a pistol,, ordered him to
throw up his hands, which he did
without protest. On a demand
for money and valuables by the
highwayman, the young man in
formed him that he had neither,
which did not satisfy the gentle
man of the road, for he proceeded
to go through his victim s pockets
in style. The search resulting in
a find of nothing mote valuaole
than a printer's rule and a cob
pipe, which articles were gen
erously left to the owner, he was
oidere.l to move on. The young
man says he was not in the least
excited by the incident for the
reason that he Faw the man stand
ing in the doorway before he came
abreast of him, and w as half expect
ing to be stopped, hence eyed tlie
man as cioseiy as circumstances
would permit, and describes him
as being short, heavy-set clean
shaven, except a short mustache,
and wearing a heavy, dark colored
overcoat and black slouch hat."
Catming Troultle.
It appears that the killing of the
Ch inaman in Pendleton is likely
to cause some trouble among rail
road employes. The EastOregon
ian says there is a rumor current
in Pendleton that Brakeman Pas
sage, train partner of Thomas
Jeters. has been discharged by
Division Superintendent O'Brien
on aconnt of killing a Chinaman
here, although Mr. Passage had
nothing to do with the row which
led to the death of the Chinaman
at Jeter's hand ; also that Conduc
tor Anderson will be relieved from
duty. Report further says that
railroad employes generally con
sider this action unwarranted on
O'Brien's part, and there may be
trouble if he persists in his course.
The matter so far is very indefinite
and railroaders are very uncom
municative. A well-known engin
eer was heard to remark that
either he or Mj. O'Brien will be
compelled to quit the service if
Anderson and Passage are dis
charged.

LEGISLATIVE APPOINTMENTS.

Selected -The Other Officers.
The republicana of the Oregon
legislaturi held a caucus Thursday
night and made the foMowing
selections for the various state
commissioners, which nominations
have been confirmed by their elec
tion in joint session :
Kail road commissioners ieorge

Junction City ; A. N. Hamilton,
Union.
Fish commissioners F.C. Reed,
R. C. Campbell, Geo. T. Myers.

Boatman at Astoria Adolph
Johnson.
Anthur N. Hamilton, the new
member of the railroad commis
sion, has served two terms as sher
ill'of Union county. He is a com
petent man. This will make a
good commission, with a competent
man for clerk. It is understood
that Frank Miller, of Albany,
brother of Hon. H. B. Miller, is a
candidate and will probably be
selected. He is a man of practical
experience in bridge building and
other railroad work and would
finish up a useful commission, with
the law just past to back it.
