The rider was not a fellow who would want to harm anyone, but he was taking great risk, for it is easy to imagine what the result might have been had a child suddenly stepped out in the street in front of bis machine. It is so easy to turn on the gasoline that it seems necessary to make an example o f a driver occasionally in order to hold the speeders within reasonable check. stealing thousands of dollars worth of Ellis Pickett delivered the gos cattle from eastern Oregon ranges, pel message at the church last and If they are convicted, Sheriff Ker- foot will receive a reward of $2000.
