OREGON'S
GRAND
OLD MAN
Hon Harrison R. Kfncaid Pays
a Tribute to Hon. Geo.
H. Williams.
Hon. Geo. II. Williams, "tho grand
old (young) man of Oregon," was
S4 yonrs young last Saturday, March
23, having heen bbm In Columbia
county, N. Y., March 23, 1S23. Ho
spent the day as usual proparalng
lognl papors In his oillco and tho eve
ning at the Commorolnl club playing
"bottlo pool," whatovor that may be
with Col. John McCrackon, ngod 82.
Judrto Williams was admitted to the
bar in New York In 1844, nnd soon
afterward moved to Iowa, whero ho
was elected judgo ot tho First Judi
cial district in 1S47. Ho was elected
presidential doctor In 1852, and was
appointed chlof Justice of Oregon
territory In 18G3, by Prosldont
Prnnklln Plerco, and hold tho oluco
uutll 1857, when ho declined a ro
appointment by Prosldont Jamos
Uuchannn. We saw htm hold court
under an onk tree in Eugcno moro
thnn 50 yonrs ago. Ho wa3 n mom
bor oT tho convention of CO dologntos

Btato of Oregon, which was adopted
by tho convention at Snlom, Soptom
bur 18, 1S57. rntllled by tho people
Novomboi 9. 1867, and ap;irovud by
congress February II, 1S59. Many
of tho will provisions of our consti
tution limiting expousos, prohibiting
dobts, nnd guarding the people from
reckless extravagance, owe tholr ex
istence to him. Ily his ability and
oxporlouce he was Ti controllolug
power In tfmt body of plouoors, nnd
mndo the fundamental law of Iowa

Tho puoujo of Oregon will do woll
to make haste slowly In rupunllug or
nmondlng the constitution, except In
matters whore tho Btato has oloarly
outgrown the garments that woro
mndo for It half n coutury ago. In
1804 Judge' Williams was oloctod by
tho legislature ot Orogon a member
of the United Stntos senate, and
sorvod In that body with groat dis
