Resident Who Served Gly
and District As Officer
James Philip Yates, who was
“Uncle Phil” to half of Wasco,'
died Friday morning m Portland
from a heart attack. Although he
had been ill for over a year Us
death was unexpected as 1 m had
been up the day befoiw and was
in apparently as good spirits as
before.
Mr. Yates was bom in Spring-
field, Illinois, March 80, 1874, ef
a family that was noted ^for 1U
interest in public affairs, members
having been governors and Unit­
ed States senators.
The family moved to Oregon
when he was a youth and in 1888
he came to Sherman eounty'to
work, sewing seeks and bucking
wheat. After a few y ea n etf' this
work, intersperced with 'ecfeool
terms in Portland in the winters
he decided to live in Sherman
county permanently and thia had
been his home ever sinee.
He became qwner and manager
of the Waeco Lumber eooapany
Tulv 16 1661 of Barents who had
interest of ne? rly $30Q-Per ye a r- Commodity C redit in steel and
