Combining the Democratic and the Prohibition ticket, tho Kentucky Klick yesterday declared It will support the mixture In Monday's election, and re solved: - Following tha wiie coursa of the South ern people and believing In the moral een tlment lowed, abroad throuBh their efforts In the suppression of crime and vice by the adoption ot prohibition throughout the Bouth, and bellevina prohibition to be the most efficacious method in the extinction and eradication of crime, we therefore rec ommend inline out the Kentucky Klick ticket with prohibition nominees, where thjse heretofore nominated aa Democrats have failed to auallty. The Kllck Is composed of "white males" born south of Mason and Dixon's line and of their descendants. The organisation is a secret one and is ruled by Democrats. Just before the . Democratic primaries, April 17, the Kllck put out a ticket for Democratic nominations and its rccom- mendatlons practically make up the Democratic ticket. The Klick boasta of wielding more political Influence than any other organization in Multnomah County, and of having been the lirst boomer of Chamberlain for Governor, Manning for District Attorney, Word for Sheriff and Lane for Mayor. Its officers are: President. Mark O'Nell; secretary, S. C. Armttage; treasurer, V. K. Strode. Other members are H. B. Nicholas, C. B. Williams, T. J. Thornton. J. B. Ryan, W. . T. Vaughn, W. T. Burney, T. G. Greene, E. A. McPherson, Tom Word, Oglesby Young and M. J. Malley. Alex Sweek, W. H. Grlndstaff and B. E. Haney. The Klick is said to have numerous other members, but, as it Is a secret organization, its officers re fuse to reveal their names. The ticket as Indorsed by the Kllck la aa follows: As Ticket, Xow Stands. United States Senator, Georga E. Chamberlain, Democrat, Supreme Judge, C. J. Bright, of Sher man, Prohibition. Circuit Judge. Multnomah County, Thomas O'Day, Democrat, District Attorney, Multnomah Coun ty. John Manning, Democrat. State Representative, Multnomah and Clackamas, A. King Wilson, Demo crat. Stata Senators, W. C. Farnham, Democrat; T. S. McDanlel, Samuel Morrow. Paul Rader, Bruce Wolverton, Prohibitionists. State Representatives, Multnomah County, D. V. Campbell and H. W. Parker. Democrats; 1,6 Grand M. Baldwin, B. H. Bertroehe, C. A. Dotson, K. G. Eaton, B. E. Emerick. John F. Hanson, W. T. Kerr, I Paget, F. L. PoKson and Lewis F. Smith, Prohibi tionists. Sheriff, Tom Word, Democrat. Coroner, Dr. J. P. Goray, Democrat. Justice of the Peace, E. H. Cahalin, Democrat. Constable, John W. Grussl, Demo crat. The Klick plumes itself on having put up nearly aU the candidates who were nominated on the Democratic ticket. Many of the selections were nominated but refused to carry the Democratic banner. Dissatisfied with their lack of patriotism and being unable to pick satisfactory candidates on the Republican or Socialistic tickets to fill the empty places, the Kllck re sorted to the Prohibition camp. In do ing this it says it is "following the wise course of the Southern people." The Klick also goes on record against the single tax amendment, for the reason that It would exempt manu facturing establishments from taxes. 'All manufacturers are now fostered and favored by the general Govern ment by a high protective tariff," say the resolutions, "and to exempt front taxation such manufacturing establish ments would be mockery and a further burden to agriculture,' a detriment to labor." The Klick urges approval of the State University appropriation and commends the Multnomah delegates to tha State Democratic Convention for their support of D. M. Watson "-and Charles K. Henry for National dele gates. s SELL GIG HARBOR LANDS Government Will Throw Open Aban doned Military Reservation. OREGONIAN NEWS' BUREAU, Wash ington, May ;s.

MANY TO ENTER COLLEGE TortUnd Hitch School Graduates Will Take Advanced Course. A good percentage of the incoming freshman class of the University of Or if egon will be "composed of Portland High School graduates. More that aj third of the present senior class in the West High School expect to enroll un der the lemon and green next Fall. During the past month the depart mental heads have filled out several dozen applications for entrance to the state university, as well as several to Stanford. Berkeley. University of Wash ington and Whitman, while others are planning to attend Pacific University. This rush to the colleges shows a striking change over a few years ago, when a class of- 5 or over would -often send hardly a single representative into the field of higher learning. Most' of those who did enter college went East or South. Now. with a singular unani mity, representative High School Stu dents are going to Oregon colleges. The following is an incomplete list of. those who have had their application cards filled out for entrance to the state university: Hattie Hyde, Mar guerite Entler, Hannah McLeod.- James O'Connor, Raphael Geisler.

KRF.BS-T.TVKSTEY MTIGATION INTERESTS MAXY. Action Was Begun Two Years Age for First Installment on Flve Year Contract. Hopmen all over the state are Inter ested in the outcome of the litigation' between the Krebs Hop Company and T. A. Livesley & Co., of Salem. The latest phase of the case was heard by Judge Galloway Monday and Tuesday, and was taken under advisement. This case, which Is one of the most famous of the many Oregon hop suits, was begun In 1906, when the Krebs company sued the Livesley company for $4000, the first Installment of che purchase price of a flve-year .contract for 100,000 pounds of hops yearly at 14 cents a pound. They secured judg ment In the Circuit Court of Marion County, when the case was appealed to the Supreme Court, which affirmed -the decision of the lower court, and later denied a petition for a rehearing. Lives ley then went before Judge Galloway in equity and secured a temporary in junction restraining cheTSssuing of ex ecution, contending that he had no remedy at law. He alleged that the Krebs Company was Insolvent and there fore unable to collect any judgment. At the hearing before Judge Gallo way this week, T. A. Livesley & Co. produced a deed given by the Krebs company to Ladd & Bush, showing on its face absolute conveyance, while Krebs, in rebuttal, produced an agree ment between his company and the Salem bank showing; that when the In debtedness was paid the deed would be transferred to them. The Krebs com pany also proved that they were above all Indebtedness and worth $81,000. and produced evidence showing no Judg ments of any kind against them. This Is only one of several suits of Krebs against Livesley on the same contract. The others are in the Supreme Court and this one will probably go there. The Krebs company yesterday filed an attachment for $8000 on Llvesley's big hop farm, bringing the total of attachments up to $18,000. I PAIN'S GREAT SPECTACLE 'Eruption of Vesuvius" to Be Shown on Multnomah Field, A stupendous spectacle in the building of which no expense has been spared to make it the most realistic and elab orate out-door picture ever produced, is a fitting description of Pain's "Vesuvius" and fireworks programme to be given nightly during the Portland Rose Festi val, beginning Saturday, May 30. The electrical and pyrotechnic effects will be the best that skill and money can secure. Mr. Pain'a reputation, as a pro ducer of out-door spectacles is unsur passed. Running for an hour and thirty minutes each performance will be fol lowed with a display of pyrotechnics con taining more new' and novel Ideas than have ever before been attempted by any other concern. The eruption of Vesuvius is a subject for a fireworks spectacle which has given Mr. Pain the opportunity of his life. There is perhaps no man, woman or child who can read who was not awe-stricken with the frightful news which came from Italy four years ago, although any story could but feebly depict the horror of the situa tion which followed the greatest eruption In the history of Vesuvius.

No trace has yet been found of Captain Anton Christ, missing skipper of the launch Zeus, which figured In Tuesday's accident off the coast of Catallna, A party of more than 50 people left Avalon today in several craft with provisions for ten days to cruise out to sea in the hope of picking up the rowboat in which it is thought Christ may be found. The local lodge of Eagles has sent out wireless notice to all coast vessels to keep a lookout for a a drifting rowboat with one man in it, A wireless message from Captain Pond, of the Buffalo, states that Seaman Bird, of the Buffalo, who made heroic efforts to save Ordinary Seaman H.

ALBERTA HORSES TO COME Between 2500 and 3000 Animals Will Be Displayed in Exhibition of Portland Country Club and Livestock Association. It is already assured that there will 9 between 2500 and 2300 head of stock exhibited on the grounds of the Portland - Country Club & Livestock Association at the first annual meeting of the Pacific National Show September 21 to 26 inclu sive. To gain some idea of the wide spread Interest, it is sufficient to say that horses were entered from four dif ferent stables from Calgary, Alberta, by wire yesterday. The entries from Mon tana, California and Idaho are larger in number than those at tha Lewis and Clark Fair, while the display of Oregon and Washington livestock in all animals and all classes will be a great surprise. The breeders of cattle, sheep, bogs and horses throughout the Pacific Northwest are intensely enthusiastic. M. D. Wisdom,- who recently' returned from Cali fornia, "is more than' enthusiastic in re gard to the coming meeting. There will be in attendance in horses alone eight or ten of California's most famous stables. The men who own these stables are millionaires they are men who could make extensive real estate investments here if they felt disposed to do so. and as Portland's sky-scrapers are paying a better return on the investment than those of any other Western city It Is not unlikely that some of them may buy here. " In fact not only our livestock growers and livestock buyers and sellers are in- terested in this meeting, but it will bring together the men who are behind the greatest Industries of the Pacific Coast. The Portland Country Club & Live stock Association owns ground bought some time ago, and the real estate hold ings are easily worth twice what they cost. The coming meeting Is going to be a great success. No . other gathering of any character brings the large attend ance that is present at all livestock shows. At Denver, in the snow, more than 60.000 people were present In one day to see the exhibit of the livestock of this country. At Fort Worth, Texas, they had an attendance equaling twice the population of the town, while at Kansas City and Chicago the greatest events in those two cities throughout the year are the great livestock gather ings. Portland is destined to be the live stock center of the Pacific Coast in addi tion to being the packing center, and if the city can attract the breeders of the Pacific Northwest here as .their home city, the Portland Country Club and Livestock Association will have done much to advance the Interests of Port land. General Manager J. P. O'Brien, of the Harrlman Lines, has Just returned from a trip to California .and while in that state he heard many livestock men talk ing about the show at Portland. There Is a' real Interest in this big show and Callfornians are coming up here In great numbers, and are coming to makO a showing of their stock equal to that made on- the State Fair grounds at Sacramento. . . - AFTER BUSINESS FRAUDS Credit Men Start Fund for Purpose . of Weeding Them Out. - The Portland Association of Credit Men has started a movement to root out all business frauds in the city. A fund has been started to provide for the investiga tion of all business ventures that are not bona fide by setting aside a certain per centage of the regular monthly dues to be added to the original sum of $100 which the executive committee voted for the purpose at a recent meeting. Credit men believe that the fact that such a move ment has been started will have a strong deterrent effect on dishonest merchants from engaging In business. The credit men hope to enlarge their membership to 200 before the close of the present fiscal year. It Is the belief of the men behind 'the organization that the best work can be accomplished if the wholesalers and manufacturers are allied with the club and its work. If their credit departments lend their help to building up a strong credit men's organization in this city, it is believed the tone of business will be raised and there will be fewer losses through the extension of credit where it is not deserved. The president of the Portland Associa tion of Credit Men is B. B. Rutherford, of M. Seller & Co.; vice-president, D. R. Young. Portland Cordage Company; treasurer, John A. Keating, Bankers & Lumberraens Bank: secretary, B. Un derwood, Falling, Haines & McCalman. Market Day for Oregon City. OREGON CITY, Or., May 28. Spe cial.)

Through the casual exchange of newspapers by two sailing vessels in the middle of the Indian Ocean, the sale of a piece of property in New York's suburbs has just been effected.- A four-line advertisement had been inserted by the owner of the prop erty in a New York paper. The future buyer of the property, a former New Yorker, had embarked from India for England on a sailing vessel.

For frying and shortening, you should use nothing but COTTOLENE. It is more healthful than lard; it will go farther than lard, one-third less being required; and it will make your food more appetizing and digestible.
