Bank Book Stolen
From Service Station
H. G. Harper, a transient, was ar
rested last night charged with the
robbery of a bank book from the safe
of the Willard battery service station
on Oak street. The bank book was
stolen yesterday about 11:30. It had
been prepared for the bank and con
tained $74 in money and a number
of checks. Harper was arrested
when he persuaded another transient
to return the bank book, minus the
cash, and agreed to share the reward
The prisoner claims that he found
the book at the exhibit building and
that he went at once to the hobo
camp at the end of the North Rose
burg trestle before he examined It.
He said that it was minus the
money when he picked It up. When
asked why he did not examine It
when first finding it he said that if
there had been any money in it he
would have kept the money. He
then confessed to having persuaded
another man to take the bank book
back to Mr. Nygren In the hope that
a reward would 'be paid for the re
turn of the checks, which he was
afraid to cash. His story Is being
investigated.

Harding Leads In Early Morn
ing Canvass of Busi
ness Disirict.
INTEREST IS GROWING
(iencrul Awlhy Is Being IMsrarded
und Keener Interest is living '
Taken in Klectlon Which is
Only Month Away.
With election day only a month
away, interest In the political situa
tion appears to be on the increase.
For the past few months a general
apathy has been apparent, but now
with the fruit season practically
over a persons hears more discussion
regarding various candidates, their
qualifications, their chances for elec
tion and the aspect of the situation
seems to be changing rapidly. Chief
interest appears to center in the
presidential campaign. Adherents
of the respective candidates are be
ginning to wax enthusiastic over
their party leaders and a few fights
can be expected within a short time
and then the times will have reached
tho ordinary election level. .
At the present time straw ballot
ing is the most popular Indoor sport.
Everywhere over the United Slates,
business concerns, Individuals aud
cliques are taking preferential votes
to determine as near as possible the
general standing of the respective
candidates for president. At Port
land a five day vote carried on by a
leading publication has given Hard
ing a two-to-one standing.
Tho huge straw vote being carried
on by the Kexall drug stores show
Harding to have a substantial lead.
In tho last returns he has carried all
of the northern and western statea
with the exception of New Mexico,
while Cox had carried all of the
southern states with the exception of
Maryland.
In order to keep the vote going
the Newa-Heview this morning made
a canvass of Cass and Jackson
streets, recording the preferences of
the men and women voters who at
the time were employed or doing
business In the various stores. Mem
bers of the reportorial staff "cov
ered" the two streets gathering up
the votes of all who cared to express
a preference. The result was almost
three to one In favor of Harrt'ng, be
ing divided as follows:
Men-
Harding, 87.
Cox. 2.i.
Debs, 4.
Women
Harding. 19.
Cox, 11.
Debs, 1.
Several votes were recorded for
Johnson and Hoover.
'I saw Harding and Cox's pictures
on the movie screen and I think Cox
is the better looking," was one fair
young lady's reason for voting for
tile democrat io candidate.
One sympathetic Individual said:
"I am going to vote for Debs; that's
the only way we can get him out of
Jail."
"No league of nations for mine."
said one republican as he scrawled
Harding s name in prominent letters
across the small paper ballot.
Some of the women confessed that
they had not Intended to vote. Some
have not kept up to date on politi
cal affairs." Several did not know
the names of the candidates. One
ninn wrote "James C. Harding" on
his ballot.
The throe-to-one vote taken by the
News-Review this morning gives
Harding a slightly larger lead than
the Rexnll straw voto which has
been in progress for some time. That
vote shows slightly better than two-
to-one.
According to the Wall jitreet re
ports contained in the New York
Herald. Wall street is offering sub
stantial odds in favor of the repub
lican candidate. Odds were reported
as high as four to one.
