  Subgroup 3.  Local Development Issues, 1863-1939As an attorney who specialized in land acquisition and disposition, Wilson became involved in many local developmentissues. Wilson's interest in water usage began when he served as the city's attorney in the dispute between the CorvallisWater Company vs. the City of Corvallis from 1897-1901. Additionally, documents from 1913-1920 indicate he wasactively involved in protecting the Mary's Peak watershed, the drainage that supplied the city's water. Wilson servedon the Corvallis Water Commission from 1932-1940 and encountered a water shortage in 1938 which led to expansionof the city's reservoirs. The transportation series consists primarily of legal records documenting Wilson's representationof clients in actions involving railroads and other transportation companies.

  Subgroup 4.  Oregon State Game Commission, 1892-1959E.E. Wilson served on the Oregon State Game Commission from 1935-1949, and was chair of the Commission from1939 until his separation from the Commission in 1949. The Game Commission was charged with preserving wildlifein the state for hunters and fishers (the Oregon State Fish Commission protected and propagated fish for commercialpurposes during these years). It operated fish hatcheries for the artificial propagation of trout and salmon, and gamefarms for the propagation of game birds. In addition, the group made policy regarding big, medium and small gameanimals.

His papers provide primary source documents from a variety of perspectives. The Commission's efforts are reflectedin the radio broadcasts presented from 1941-1943, in Wilson's speeches and correspondence, and may also be foundin Game Commission reports and in the minutes of monthly meetings. He personally researched topics relative toGame Commission issues and left an extensive group of reference material on wildlife practices from the late 19thcentury through the 1940s. Papers from his service on the Game Commission consist of 10 series:

Series I. Administration, 1929-1961 [This series includes Game Commission biennial reports, minutes from monthlymeetings, historical information, and the reports of the Legislative Interim Committee, the group that investigatedthe ability of the Game Commission to deal with the state's game problems in 1948.]
