The long spell of dry weather i having

sistance of the marshal, Mr. Wolf was
taken to his home, where his injuries
were attended to. The full into the

laws of Oregon provide for a decennial
census, to 1st taken midway Is-tween the
government's enumerations. The next
state census, therefore, will m com
piled in 1005. It. is made the duty of the
county assessors throughout the state to
take the census in their res.etiveeount
ies, the work commencing Slay 10. Kuril
assessor is required Jo uncertain the num
Ist of legal voters in his county, the
niiinlier of males w ho are of age, the
nu ui I xT under 10 years of age and the
nuinlxT Is'tween 10 and 21. He must
also ascertain the mnnlsT of females
who are of age, the nninlx r under 10 and

The Nelson & Keed Luinlsjr Co., of

by the continued and fust-urowimr trade.
The mills last week furnished 2:1,000 feet

frame buildings in the county. Messrs.
Nelson & Reed have their steam drying
plant in excellent working order and it
is Ix'ing oMrateil to its full capacity. A
board is put in full of pitch and comes
out an smooth an a lisiking-glass, and
when put into a building will not shrink
or warp. An enterprising firm like
Nelson A Keed deserves success, w hich

ed ami Itefore night everything alxmt
the building was running hike clock
work. A few words in reference to the
new officials and those re-clectM will
not Is-out of place at thin time:
K. J. HODMAN.
Though a new man In the court house
in Washington county, Mr. (i.xliiiuu is
not a new olliciul in the county
clerk's office, as he held that )xsiiion
six years in Mohave county, Arizona.
He was Isjrn in Tippccam county, In
diana, in lHii.'l; moved to Arizona in
18K0, ami came to Oregon in 1S02, set
tling on a farm near Tigurdville, in
East Butte precinct and is one of the
solid and most highly resisvted
fainers in that section and iuhiiIhts his
friends by the score iu every section of
the county, as the vote for him at the
recent election truly demonstrates. At
the death of Mr. Morgan, almost on the
eve of the election, Mr. (bxlinan was
nominated to fill the vacancy, and
though there was not sufficient time to
get his name on the regular ballot, and
in face of the fact that thedeiiKs-ruts had
a gixxl man and a hard one io lieat as
his opxjnent, Mr. tiolmun went in like
u whirlwind and when the xills closed
he had a majority of 144 to his credit.
Besides Wing a successful faijner hu is
also interested in the milling business at
Tigardville. He received Ijis education
in the common sclnsils, and ln-fore com
ing to Oregon was telegraph operutor
and ticket agent for several railway com
panies in the East. He has made a suc
cess ol everything he has undertaken
and will make a gisxl and couis-tent of
ficial in the clerk's ollice of Washington
county. Mr. liislman has moved his
family to Filth and Washington street.
Mr. (itxlinan hits nttuicd us his deputy
W. D. Smith of this city, a man fully
coinK'tent to perform the imHirtatit jxi
sition to which he bus hem apixiiuted.
W. M. JACKSON.
To Ih treasurer of a county like Wash
ington a man must Isj competent, and
to be re-elected by a majority of
1,720, he must Is honest and trust
worthy. Such a mail in W. M. Jackson,
who last Wediiesduy again took the oath
of office as treasurer of this county for
another two years. Mr. Jackson was
Isjrn in the town of Waveluml, Mont
gomery county, Indiana, in 1H4H, and
came to Washington county in lS'.Kl,
cuting near Dilley on a farm j was elect
ed to the ollice of county treasurer in
1002 and re-elected last mouth. His ma
jority in 1002 was but 1ft."), w hile his vote
this year wan 2.2HM. His education was
obtained in the common schools of Os
kalisisa, la., where a jxirtion of his lsiy
hood w as spent. In 112 he enlisted in
the 3Hrd Iowa and served until the close
of the war as a private. In 1W he
went to Kansas and bxik up a home
stead, tix)ii which he lived for four
years, when he returned to Indiana and
emlatrked in the mercantile business
which he conducted for some time, re
turning again to Kansas, this time re
maining eight years. Mr. Jackson Is a
pleasant gentleman to meet, and those
having business to transact in the treas
tires office will find him courteous and
accurate.
A. A. MOKKII.I..
A. A. Morrill, the present county stir
veyor, was elected to the office in 180S
and served two years, when he ran for
re-election and was defeated. In 1002
he was again nominated and elected,
and still strain in I'.HH. His lxisitmn in
a most imixirtant one, and one which
only a man who thoroughly understands
his business can fill successfully. He is
no thorough and his work so reliable
that his services are ls-ing sought by
other counties end corporations, and it
is little time Mr. Morrill has to spare.
He was born in Clareinont, X. II., in
1H.V); went to Minnesota with his par
ents in lH-"7. where they settled in the
little town of Clareinont, coming in 1X70
to Corvallis, this state, and in 1Hm: mov
ed to Uillslxro, w here he has since made
his home. He received his education in
the common schools, and as Mr. Mor
rill says, has never ceas.il studying since
be left the schixtl rmmi. He is the right
man in the right place.
tiEO. W. WII.COX.
Xo man on the face of the earth, fir in
the unstirveyed country alsve it, ran as-
Ises the valuation of property and do it
to the satislaction ol every property

E. J. KUKATLI.
Mr. Km atti has the distinction of re
ceiving the largest vote ever cust for
audit r in Washington county, which
at once stamps him as ag.Mjd official and
popular w ith the people. He has reach

sor under H. A. Cavell and (ieo. W.
Wilcox for seven years; elected to the
citi'ice of county recorder in 1002 and

man, for all he bus ami is has been se
cured through his own exertions.
JOHN W. CONNEI.L.
There is no question aismt John W.
Connell making a good sheriff. Tiiis
wus said of him after he was nominated,
related tune ami again during the
cimpuign, and his enemies would say
the same thing if he hud any, but he
hasn't. He is a young man right
off the farm w here he has made a suc
cess of it and he will not neglect that
nor the ollice the voters of Washington
county have seen fit to elect him to. Mr.
Connell in almost 30 years of age, was Ixnn

This in brief is a history of the men
