TO STOCK HUNT FARM.
ZINE Stock, Beef and Mutton VIII BE
Produced at Foster.

William H. Daugherty, formerly Of
Pendleton and now manager of the
Union Stockyards at Portland, has
been in the city today accompanied
by his wife. They came up yesterday
from the Hunt ranch near Foster, and
will go east from here.
According to Mr.. Daugherty, 1t is
the present intention of his compa-
ny to keep the Hunt ranch and use 1t
in connection with their business at
Troutdale. 1t will be used for raising
fine stock and for fattening beef and
mutton purchased for slaughter. The
stock raised on the ranch will all be
of the best grades and will be a valu-
able addition to the fancy stock of the
county.
Mr.. Daugherty was a resident here
for years and sold out in 1894 to go
to Tacoma. From there he went to
Walla Walla and from that place to
Portland. where he purchased an in
terest in the Union Stockyards and is
now the manager. While most of his
time Is taken up at headquarters, he
is required to travel more or less and
will now visit the county occasionally
on business connected with the Hunt
ranch. This place was recently pur-
chased of G.. w. Hunt for $175,00O.
and contains $500 acres of fine alfalfa
land.

PROTECT OREGON
LAW TAXING OUTSIDE
SHEEP is DEMANDED
Cecil II. Wade, Candidate for the Leg
islature Writes to Secretary Dan r.
Smythe, of the Umatilla County
Woolgrowers' Association, on the
Subject-Favors n Stringent Law
Protecting Oregon Stoclsmen by
Taxing Outside Sheep.

Cecil r. Wade, democratic candi-
date for representative from Umatilla
county, has written a reply to the
Umatilla County Woolgrowers asso-
citation as TO his attitude on legislation
taxing outside sheep, which are driven
into Oregon to range each year.
oregon is very much abused by
outside stockmen because there is no
law in the state taxing foreign stock.
Umatilla county sheepmen are deeply
interested In the passage of a strin-
gent law taxing foreign sheep which
Craze in this state, and Mr.. Wade has
written the following reply to Dan p.
Smythe, secretary of the Umatilla
County Woolgrowers' association on
the subject:
"Pendleton, Ore, May Z, 1906.

my Dear Sir: You. together with
other members of your association
have asked me concerning my atti-
tude relative to the annual invasion OF
Washington sheep into the Oregon
territory, and the stand l would take
in regard to 1t in the event of my
election to the legislature.
Therefore, in reply to you and
others of your association. take this
ment which you are at liberty to file
among your records, as evidence OF
my attitude relative thereto, and will
say:
II. l consider sheepraising one OF
the leading resources of this county
and with which industry l have spent
many years and am thoroughly ia.
miliar as to its outlook, conditions and
needs.
"2. I am informed of, and fully
understand the injustice of invasion
Of Oregon territory by foreign sheep
and the damage suffered by the grow.
ers Of Umatilla and other counties.
"3. l am most emphatically op.
posed to the continuance of this in.
vasion, and in the event of my elec.

upon such foreign stock, also a strin

as may be most expedient and effect

stand II should be noted that Oregon
