Barzee ' . h HMMM a M Rufus Grangers Take Degrees At Harland View W as Named Name Of Fulton Refused Because Of Quarrel Part of this article is written from authentic hearsay and the happenings prior to my settlement in Wasco-Sherman county. I have not the exact date of the segregation of Sherman from Wasco county but the circum stances connected herewith arc well remembered. The separating of Sherman from Wasco county was made during a session of the legislature when the state was .predominantly republi can. The state being north of the Mason and Dixon line was bom republican with few democrats be ing elected to the State Legisla ture. Linn county was one county which always sent a democrat to the legislature, Wasco was a mix-, ed county, politically and Col. Ful-, ton (democrat) had served a term of its session. Col. Fulton is all the name I ever learned for him. He was a rank ing officer in the early day Indian war when men were known for their valor rather than for theii education. His popularity led to his election as a member of the Legislature. During this session, thi$ good, honest old soul was en deavoring to put a Bill of his own fathering through when some member moved that the Bill be in definitely postponed. Col Fulton, .not being a parlementarian, turn ed to his colleague seat mate and .asked ♦‘What effect wvuld that have on the Bill?” This question made considerable merriment for the more learned members. Allow me to say from personal acquain tance with Col. Fulton, that while an education in text books was not his privilege he was a MAN among men. In those early days h< was one who was ready to defend this country from the marauding Indian; I mentioned that Oregon was predommantialy republican, Wascn county was a mixed county whik Linn was always democrat, like wise Baker. Those were stirring days that followed in the wake of the Civil war. It was not popular to be a democrat and this was Col. Fulton’s politics. Digressing slight ly to establish this unpopularity, let me speak of one of my early childhood Willamette Valley neigh bors who, as was the custom in sparsely settled communities, en tertained two travelers over night. After the evening meal while fire side chatting, the subject of the civil war came up. This good neigh bor being republican, learend that these strangers sympathised witih the south.— Upon learning this fact this man (Waldo by name) ordered the men to get their horses and leave. “Vamoose,” as the Indian would say i t The men in sisted they meant no harm and that they had money to pay for their nights lodging and insisted on net going out in the rain away from his entertainment. Mr. Waldo told them he ‘‘did not want any “secess” money and they departed. Soon after that Mr. Waldo found his barn destroyed by fire. This is written to give you an insight into the reason why Sherman coun ty was named after the second great civil war general instead of Col. Fulton as was first proposed.- Col. Fulton was not so well liked as was Sherman so a compromise was effected by naming the new county, Sherman. Some members of the legislature wished to soothe any feelings the change in the Bill had made, and Col. Fulton was ap- tointed Judge of the new county, as a list of the county officials most be made in the bill. Whede upon Col. Fulton promptly appointed O. M. Scott County Judge, saying he was barely able to attend to his personal affairs and did not wiah the burden of that of the county. Thus O. M. Scott becare , the first county judge. At the next election John Frthton, Col. Fulton’s eldest son was duly elec ted Judge. At the election follow’- ing Mr. Cuney, a civil war veteran, sought the Judgship but was de feated by a second term given to John Fulton. So certain was Mr. Cuney of this election in a pre dominantly republican county that his wife, in company with a group of women on the day of election ■aid, “I am going Xo stay with the Judge tonight.” Some of the wo men of the group having long ac quaintance with the Fulton family remarked, “If you do you will stay with John Fulton.” This will assist in making up the record of early day.jncidenfcs and the popularity of the Fulton fam ily. Teacher—Yes, Mr. Bryce, your; daughter Jane is a good worker, but she talks too much. Mr. Bryce—You should come up sometime and meet her mother.
