do not feel that those daughters should
have the vote." This brought a round
of applause. "Giving- the negroes the

Ilee and their relatives, yellow-'

other than W. A. "Dusty" IUiodes .
Itaa come to this conclusion. The
realization came about rather
painfully. ' '
During the progress of a
grouse hunt on Sunday in the
; hills, bees, hornets, yellow-Jackets,
wasps or whaterer tbey were.
bussed merrily about the hunting
pafty of which Mr. nhodes Was a '
member. They could be shooed

persisted In staying' near. All got
home without being given a sou
'venlr from the bee family.
Yesterday morning Mr, Ithodes
went Into als garage to get his
ear. and in removing some ar
ticle from within, disturbed a
yellowjacket which had come
home with the party. His Sun
day good behavior, however, he
. forgot and proceeded to Inject
his stinger Into Mr. Rhodes' neck.

Tommy Smart, etc ward and tyler for
the Hlks lodge, was quite a grown man
when Til Taylor first become sheriff
in Umatilla county 18 years ago.
Throughout all. the yean that the late
sheriff served, ha waaf well known and
respected by Mr. Smart and the un
timely death ot Mr. Taylor recently
wa a keen blow to his friend of long
standing. ' 1
The Taylor Memorial fund, now in
its second week, received Mr. Smart's
contribution yeterday. It was for
$10. To Tommy Smart that $10 was
as great as any $100 subscription that
has been received at headquarters.
The grand little old man, whose SOtb.
birthday is just two days away, waa
proud, and glad, to give that sum to
the memorial.
Newcomer Adds Gift
A newcomber in Pendleton, Edward
E. Cohen, president and manager of j
the Oldsmobile Co., of Oregon, last i
evening added to the fund with a $50 i
subscription. Mr. Cohen has lived in
Oregon 15 years and knew of the late
sheriff, although they were not ac
quainted. His contribution was wel
comed a.t headquarters.
H. If. Wessel, for many years a
Pendletonian but now of Portland,
sent to headquarters a contribution of
$25, to be added to the fund which
continues to mount by voluntary sub
scriptions. Mr. Wessel, like many
other Portland persons formerly res
idents of Pendleton, has been kept in
touch with the memorial progress
through the cooperation of the Oregon
Journal. - - "
Tribute Accompanies Money
Thomas W. Sommerville, of Harris
burg. went. $1 to the fund today, with
the following tribute .to Sheriff tay
lor: "Please accept my small offering
for tho Til Taylor Memorial Fund, as
I think Til Taylor was worthy of all
that can be done to remember him.
I knew him and certainly admired
him."
Although figures from Portland
have not been announced during the
past few days, it is clearly evident
from the number of subscriptions that
are coming in from out of town that
tho assistance given the move by the
Oregon Journal is producing tho re
sults. Quite a large mmount is under
stood to have been placed in the
hands of Chairman W. I. Thompson
in Portland and when reports are
asked for from out of town, a con
siderable swelling of the total is look
ed for.
