Tiimon Ford was born in 145
and lived with his parents on a
farm in Marion county until 1865,
when he went to Idaho to try his
luck in the mines. Beng suc
cessful with his pick and shovel,
he accumulated sufficient means
to enable him to enter Willam
ette University, where he gradu
ated in 170. He immediately
took up the study ot law ana was
admitted to ihe bar by. the Su
preme Court in the Fall of 1872.
He opened a law office in this
city soon after and has engaged
in active practice ever since.
In i?8o he was nominated and
elected a Representative in the
Legislature from this county on
the Republican ticket, and was
author of the bill enacted during
that session which located and
provided for the building of the
State Insane Asylum. He was
re-elected to the Legislature in
1882 and served through both
sessions as an active member of
the House judiciary committee.
Although a powerful working
member of the Legislature, Mr.
Ford was not much given to ai
displav of fiprensic ability, but
when he did take the floor to ad
diess the assembly upon any sub
ject he had the reputation of car
rying bis point in nearly every
instance. Up to the time or an
accident, which befell him in
February, 1905, by which he suf
fered a fractured hip, Mr. Ford
had been prominently identified
with Republican politic?. , Hf
presided over several county and
state conventions, and twice was
chosen a Presidential Blector, in
1900 and 1904.
Many a rising young man in
the state has him to thank for the
means and encouragement by
which he gained an education
and start in the world.
Mr. Ford leaves a sister, Mrs.
Dr. Angie Warren, of Portland,
and two brothers, , Cnarles D., of
Seattle, and Frank, of Rosslyn,
Mont., besides other relatives,
including an aunt, Mrs. E. J
Cornell, and two cousins, W. H.
Kaiser, his law partner, and Mrs.
F. E. Hubbard, all of this city.
He bad amassed a comfortable
fortune, says a Salem dispatch to
the Telegram.
Mrs. Florence Bargeltof Marsh
fiield, W. G. M. of Oregon, and
Prof. Frederick Stanley Dunn of

E. R. Bryscn of this city has
been mentioned this week for the
position of United States District
Attorney, by the delegation at
Washington. When interviewed
Tuesday, Mr. Bryson stated that
he had been informed that his
name was being mentioned but
that he had sent a telegram that
forenoon informing the delega
tion that he could not consider
the proposition.
One reason, and perhaps the
ereatet is that the young man
has already filed his application
fer the position ot district attor
ney, and be said there were other
reisons why he would not be
corrXfe a candidate for United
States district attorney.
Mr. Bryson is a brainy young
lawyer, 32 years of age, who has
made tor himself an enviable
reputation since being admitted
to the bar a number of years ago.
His effective work in doing away
with the illicit liquor traffic in
Corvallis, carried on under the
'Commercial Club" plan in vio
lation of the local option law, has
made manv warm friends for Mr.
Bryson throughout the state,
among law-abiding citizens, and
his record throughout bis legal
career has been clean and honor
able. He is splendidly fitted for
the high office for which he has
been mentioned and his friends
have been urging bim to accept
it. He insists, however, that he
will not be a candidate.
"Sis in New York" is coming
next Wednesday night to the
opera house. Sis and her Indiana
neighbors have been so long be
fore the public entertaining those
who have an ear for that quaint
brand of comedy found nowhere
else save in Posey County, Hoop
pole Township, Indiana, that she
need? no introduction. This sea
son's edition of the fun frolic
takes Sis and her rural friends in
to New York, and she is kept
busy dodging the autos and cars,
lor she insists on walking in the
middle of the streets fearing that
some of the big buildings might
fall.
