ARTHUR L. HUTCHINSON

	Arthur Hutchinson received his education in the public schools of Oakland
and remained at home until he attained his majority.  He then engaged in
stock-raising, with which he has been prominently identified ever since.  He did
not give up his connection with this occupation even during the three years
which he spent, from 1905 to 1908, in the logging woods.  He now gives his
entire attention to the operation of his ranch of one hundred and seventy-seven
acres situation on the Umpqua river near Kellogg and to the promotion of his
extensive and rapidly growing stock interests.   He is the proprietor of one of
the most valuable ranches in Douglas county and is ranked among that section's
representative ranches in Douglas county and is ranked among that sections
representative citizens.  
     In 1899 Mr. Hutchinson was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Fryer, a
daughter of John Fryer, of who more extended mention is made elsewhere in this
work.  Mr. Hutchinson is a democrat in his political beliefs and intelligently
interested in local affairs and well informed upon national issues.  He,
however, never seeks public office, preferring to devote his entire attention to
the successful operation of his ranch and stock farm.  He is a member of Oregon
Camp, No. 125, Woodmen of the World, and in the course of a life spent in
Douglas county has made many friends, who honor him for his straight-forward
business principles and the industry and enterprise which have been the
dominating factors in his success.
