The Byfrs mill race yesterday aft
ernoon added another human life TO
its toll when Harry Riggle. the five
year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. G.. w.
Riggle of 1910 East Court street. fell
into the stream and was drowned be-
fore rescue could reach him. The
tragic occurrence happened shortly
after $3.50.
With another boy of his own age,
the little fellow had been playing
along the banks of the race which
runs close to his home. In reaching
out to pull cattail growing in the
water. he fell into the water and
sank. His playmate gave the alarm
but 1t was over twenty minutes before
the body was recovered
Two physicians were hurriedly
summoned and worked for long
time in "a vain endeavor to resusci-
tate him but life was extinct when
they arrived. phc body was taken to
the home of the parents, whose grief
was pitiful The funeral VIII be neid

The drowning has brought re-

millrace within the city limits. The
stream has taken heavy toll since
Il was built and. because children are

drowning does not occasion much
surprise. 1t was about two years ago
that young Dewey Swarthout sacri-

had been thrown from a bicycle into
the water.
Chief of Police John Kearney is a
strong advocate of fencing the mill
race, declaring il is constant source
of danger and has claimed many
more victims than the river. Many
citizens are eXperess.ng the opinion
that the council should compel the
race to be fenced off

BOURNE PLAN FOR GOOD

FEDERAL AID Is FEATURE OF
PROPOSAL TO SECURE BET

Here for the purpose or. boosting
the federal aid to good roads plan
proposed by the joint committee on
federal aid to the construction OF
good roads of which Jonathan
Bourne is chairman. Thomas McCusk-
er of Portland spent yesterday in the
city.
At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon

tendance including not only the man
aging board but members of the city
and county road committees also. All

plan and President Tallman prom
ised to attend 10 the circulation OF
petitions urging the road plan upon
congress.
The Bourne plan for good roads
calls for joint action between the fed
eral and state governments with the
national government taking the ini-
tiative. IL is proposed TO eXpend three
billions OF dollars on road making
within the next so years. The ma
tional government will sell three per
cent bonds. The federal government
will then provide the states with
money at four per cent and the mon
ey represented by the difference be-
tween the three per cent and the four
per cent bonds will be compounded
and used to pay off the principal of
the state bonds. BY this scheme the
states will be relieved from the ne
cessity of paying the principal on
their bonds and will merely have to
meet the four per cent in,eres-
charge.

that Intervention probably
would follow. 1t is known that
he is desperately anxious to
avoid il.
Many however, believe inter
vention to be inevitable. being
convinced that the country can
not agree on a successor and
that fighting is bound to CON

Though ideal weather is contribut-

tions are this afternoon that only a
light vote Will be cast today at the
referendum election and reports from
over the state are that this feature
win be a common one. Only the fact
that this is the first election at which
many OF the women have had an OPP
portunlty to cast ballot makes the
vote as heavy as II Is.
The polls opened at o'clock this
morning but up until noon the vot-
ing was unusually light. This af-
ternoon however a good many ladies
have been making their way to the
polls and the voting is considerably
heavier than this morning. The polls
will remain open until o'clock this
evening
The feature of the election is the
fact that the women of Pendleton are
casting vote for the first time in
their life. Though equal suffrage
amendment was carried year ago,
there has been no election OF any kind
since in this city or county. The
balloting Is necessarily slower as the
judges and clerks are required in
many instances to explain the pro-
cedure to the uniuitiated. Seeming
~, the women are enjoying their ex-
perience and the proportion OF regis
tered women voting will be greater
than the proportion of registered
men, II is expected.
Some of the UNREGISTERED both men
and women are being sworn in 50
that they may cast their ballot. In
terest, however. is lacking in the
keenness which generally marks an
election here IN Pendleton.
