Career of Thomas H. Tongue.
Thomas H. Tongue, who had at
tained tftatc prominence long before
he became a national figure, was born
In England on June M. 18 14. Ills pa
rents were Anthony and Rebecca
(I awson) Tongue, and he was their
only child He was educated In Kng
land until his 16 year, when his pa
rents emigrated directly to Washing
ton county. Oregon, whore they locat
ed on a farm several mllos north of
Hlllstmro, Where the parents yet re
side Young Tongue had had fairly
good advantages In the Hnglish
schools, and as soon as he anlvod In
IIIHsboro he worked Incessantly to
give himself a finished education. At
tending district school on tho North
Tualatin Plains for a fow years, he
finally concluded rto take n collegiate
course. He began sciiooi at rncinc
Unlvorslty, under great difficulties.
Tho family had Just started to engage
In farming, and tho necessary means
to procure an education wore not In
tho family exchequer. Mr. Tongue,
however, did not let that deter him,
and he absolutely worked his way
through college, graduating with high
honors In 1868. Upon leaving the unl
vorslty he commencod tho study of
law under Hon. W. U, Hare, and so
apt a scholar wm ho that he was ad
mltted to the bar In 1870. Mr. Tongue
soon became tho leading attorney In
Washington county, by close applica
tion to business, aided by his nnturnl
ability. He early espoused tho prin
ciples of tho Republican party, by
which party he was several times
honored by nomination to prominent
official positions, serving locally as n
number of the council of Hlllsboro,
also as a mayor of that city, and as a
member of the state board for six con
secutlvo years. In 1883 he was elect
ed to the state senate nd served on
the Judiciary and other Important
committee. It was during this ses
slon that the all-absorbing question
came as to whether a bill should bo
passed exempting Portland municipal
bonds (the water bonds) from taxa
tion. In opposition to this measure
Mr Tongue distinguished himself. His
