	FRANK W. CONWAY, who, in assocation with his brother Irving, operates the
homestead farm of four hundred acres in Douglas, his native county, was born in
the Umpqua valley on the 26th of July, 1876.  He acquired his education in the
public schools and also pursued a course of study at the Central Oregon State
Normal School, at Drain, from which institution he was graduated in 1898.  In
1900 he went to Sodaville, Oregon, where Mr. Conway pursued a special course in
languages at Sodaville College.  Subsequently he taught school for three months.
In 1902 he filed on a homestead of one hundred and sixty acres in Idaho, which
he proved up and still owns.  In 1909 he returned to Douglas county, Oregon, and
soon afterward began the operation of the home farm in partnership with his
brother Irving.  In the conduct of their agricultural interests the brothers
have been successful, their land being highly productive and annually yielding
bounteous harvests.
	Since age conferred upon him the right of franchise Mr. Conway has supported
the republican party, being convinced that its principles are most conducive to
good government.  He belongs to Council Lodge, No. 85, I. O. O. F. of Council,
Idaho, and is also a member of Diamond Rebekah Lodge, No. 56.  IN whatever
relation of life he has been found he has been true and loyal to the trust
reposed in him and his life has been in conformity with a high standard of
conduct.
