One of. these, the low valua tion agreement, gives the shippers a reduced transportation rate, with lim ited liability on the part of the rail road corporations in event of dam ages to the livestock. The so-called special valuation con tract does not give any reduction in transportation charges to the ship pers, but increases tne iiaoutty or the railroads. Revision of the contract was asked by livestock shippers because of the change In conditions since 1909. when the present agreement was adopted by the public service commission. The new contract becomes effective to morrow.

'One of the neighbors has just shot and killed a China pheasant." was the substance of a telephone call re ceived yesterday by A. E. Burghduff, state game warden, from a resident of Marquam Hill. Armed with a search warrant, a deputy game warden approached the house of the neighbor, who had been charged with shooting the pheasant. Search revealed not a beautiful pheasant but a sharp shinned hawk. This hawk is one of the most de structive of the family of hawks," said Mr. Burghduff. "There really ought to je a bounty on them.- We're very glad this one was shot. "We didn t mind the telephone call. though. It shows that Portlanders are awake and want the laws enforced." WALLA' WALLA. Wash., March 31. (Special.) Friends from all over the northwest paid their last respects today to Levi Ankeny, ex-senator and financier, whose life in the west spanned 71 of the 77 years of his life. Fully 1500 persons tt tended to view the body and follow it to the grave In Masonic cemetery by the side of Mr. Ankeny's wife, who preceded him about a year. Streets near the Ankeny home were literally packed with automobiles. All morning and up to the hour of the funeral the body lay in state at the Ankeny home, and hundreds of friends passed by. The large bronze casket was covered with flowers. Services were conducted by Rev. Bertram War ren, rector of St. Paul's church, who spoke of the long life of the senator and the service he. had .performed for the community. His many good traits were emphasized. It was recalled that during the hard times Mr. Ankeny , saw to it that borrowers of money did not lose their farms. Enterprise lodg? of Oddfellows had charge of the services at the grave. Mr. Ankeny was a member of Enter prise lodge for30 years and in that time never missed a meeting when he was in town 'and able to attend. Proof of the ex-senator's democracy in death and life waa given when the funeral ' procession started to the cemetery. In an automobile directly behind those of the family were Jim and Gee, Chinese servants of the Ankenys for years. Pallbearers were old friends and business associates: Charles F. Adams of the First National bank of Port land, E. T. Coman, former president of i the Exchange National bank of Spo kane; G. M. Rice, vice-president ' Of the First National bank of Pendle ton; Walter Shu man of the First Na tional bank of Waitsburg. John H. Pedigo and Oscar Drumheller of Walla Walla. Friends and relatives from all parts of the northwest were present, includ ing many who had been associated with Levi Ankeny In financial and political activities for many years. The funeral processsion to the cem etery was probably the largest ever seen in Walla Walla, made up of citizens in every walk of life. It was Levi Ankeny's statement that every man was his friend, regardless of financial or social position. otaoi o D o IOBOI IOEXOI IOSXOE IOEXOI IOCZO O - U o Call for your copy of the Spring Style Book it's free OFFICIAL ON ITER TRIP ADJUDICATION OF WARSER VALLEY RIGHTS GOAL.
