any klansmen participating In the
rites, It was learned today. Several
hundred of the hooded figures were
present from Eugene and other Wil
lamette valley towns, It was under

girls thought they saw possibly from
300 to BOO men.
The girls, two sisters with another
friend, had gone In the early evening
to the top of the big bald hill to es
cape the heat of the valley. They were
sitting in the tall grass Just behind a
clump of bushes and Just a short dis
tance from the edge that is so steop
that It Is unsurniountable and there
fore not guarded by the klansmen
who drove up In automobiles about 9
o'clock from the sldo that has a
smoother and more even grade. They
remained quiet until midnight, when
the meeting broke up. Hooded guards
around the base of the bill kept non
klansmen. who had gathered In great
numbers . to watch the ceremonies,
from going farther up the bill. "We
got quite a kick out of the whole busi
ness," one loss remarked this morn
ing to a local newspaperman. Tho
girls desired that their names remain
secret.
They also secured a slip or paper,
containing the names of SO men
thought to be candidates for initiation,
that aecldently dropped from the
hands of one of the officers. The cere
mony took place not more than 40 or
50 feet from them, they said.. Not all
those attending wore masks and
gowns.
It was rumored on the streets here
this morning that a class of about 160
was taken In. but the girls say they
saw only a score or so swear to an
oath. Most of the business transacted
seemed to be discussion of a subject
mntiniied from a former meeting.
The governor came In for a lot of
criticism, declared one ot tne trio.
They say It was decided to hold the
next big meeting at Kalcm, but they
did not learn the date.
Klansmen met at the Eagles hall
and proceeded to Emerald Heights by
automobile.
An amusing feature of tho evening,
one girl said, was to hear and recog

of a clerk In the grocery store where
she deals, and believed she -spotted
