The Idea suggested itself to Mr.
Cohn after receiving a number
of letters from patrons who in-
quired about the Hound-Up.
Another means of combining
ItoundSUp boosting with busi

Mf. Cohn Is the presentation of
100 copies of "Let 'er Buck",

LflCATE TWO STILLS
Operator of Moonshine Plant
Not Captured But Officials
Say He is Well Known.
Two complete stills, tvyy gas stoves
equipped with pressure tanks, six bar
rels of corn mash which also Included
seme elderberries. 30 feet of copper
coils and a quantity of corn Is some
of the loot that was discovered by five
spee'al officers from Vmatilla and
Union counties who recently made a
raid oh Little Johnson Creek, 45 mile
south of here. .
Jlnks'Taylor and Olenn Bushee re
turned lost night after the Jaunt wblc'
took them into the wilds. The stillf
were cleverly camouflaged, and it wsf
with difficulty that the location was
fojind by the officers. The tip on thr
location wan supplied by the 1."
Grande officers. bit tho Pendleton of
flc'als declare that the operator, who
was not caught, is well known In Pen
dleton. "We know who Is operating there,"
the officers declare, "and we don't in
tend to let the matter drop Just yet
Further investigations are to be madr
by both state and federal authorities."
Bushee declares that there Is every
indication that some of the copper
coils In use on the two stills Is th
same kind on tractors which is con
stantly being taken from tractors
while in transit on flatcars on the rull
roads. Double charges might be pre
ferred In case it could be established
that the copper tubes had been taken
from machines on cars.
Nothing except the copper colls
were brought back to Pendleton. The
other equipment was demolished so It
can't be used again, and the coils
were brought back. The ' Tendleton
men had to drive 40 miles in a car.
and then they hnd a five-mile climb
over the mountains on foot to rac'
the seat of operations. A sample of
tho moonshine showed it was clenr
