PORTLAND, Jan. 28— Charles Ful
ton, ex-United States senator from
•Oregon, and prominent in Oregon
politics for many years, died at his
home in this city last night.
Sketch of His Career.
Charles William Fulton served with
distinction as a United States sena
tor from Oregon in 1903-9. He won
his way to the front in the early
west in a truly pioneer fashion, fight
ing not only through the usual ob
stacles that beset men dependent on
iuilllilllllllllM
—*——ll
their own resources, but, in one case,
through bullets. Later in his career
he became the center of the bitterest
Republican factional fight in the his
tory of his state and one that attract
ed national attention.
Born in Lima, Ohio, August 24,
1853, Fulton received his early educa-i
tion in Ohio and Nebraska and at the
age of 22 landed in Portland, Oregon,
unknown and with little money. His
first job was teaching a country school
down in the Williamette valley, but
after one term he went to Astoria to
try his luck, and there lived 25 years.
In 1877, his second year in Oregon,
he began to practice law and also
started on his political career by be
ing elected to the state senate.
After several terms in the state sen
ate, Fulton became a formidable can
didate for senator in 1894, but was de.
feated. The next election, Fulton was
again in the field. He was the choice
of the minority. When the legislature
of 1897 failed to elect, a special ses
sion was called in 1898, when Joseph
Simon was chosen. The fight of 1901
was based on an effort to oust Simon.
Anti-Simon Republicans carried the
state. The legislature then deadlock
ed between Pulton and former Gover
nor Geer. At the end of 40 days, it
still looked as if adjournment would
be taken without electing a senator.
Harvey W. Scott, one of the ablest
editors of the west, and leader of the
fight against Simon, entered the fight,
receiving 28 votes. This broke the
deadlock, and Fulton emerged as sen
ator.
After serving his term, Senator Ful
ton practiced law in Portland.
He married Miss Ada Hobson while
living in Astoria. They had one son,
who is a stock raiser in Eastern Ore
gon.

GOVERNMENT WANTS
BIG SALMON PACK
To insure a large pack the govern
ment has established the following
wholesale prices of fish:
Per Dozen
Chums .$1.60
Pinks . 1.65
Medium Reds . 2.2D
Kteds . 2.35
The cans are packed four dozen to
the case, making the price one of the
highest known, and insuring a sub
stantial reward for expenditures by
the canners. Nearly everything caught
can be canned and sold, the cheaper
qualities of fish going to Europe, where
they are used as army food. The gov
ernment will also establish a standard
price to be paid for fish at the banks,
to eliminate speculation.

Walter Stoddart, representing the
bureau of fisheries, who has been at
Halibut cove looking after the her
ring industry, was in Cordova yester
day, on his way to the States.
The packing of herring at a profit
in Alaska this year was made possible
by the European embargo on that
product, in order that the industry
recently begun may not be stifi.; I nor
the market for American berrin 4 un
there is an urgent need for some form
of protective tariff. It is more than
probable, however, that the United.
States bureau of fisheries will take
some action in the adjustment of this
matter, since their efforts in furthering
the industry have been marked and
effective.
The pack at Halibut cove has been
approximately 6,000 barrels, Scotch
and Norwegian-cured herring. The
pack should be more than doubled this
year. The Scotch cure, which was
introduced by the government this
year, is favorably looked upon by pack
ers, and next season will see a larger
output of this cure, which is superior
to the Norwegian cure.
