SELLING DECLARED IX LEAD Wilson Democrat Says Indications Bright for Republican.- 'The outlook as to the Senatorial situation In my section of the state !s favorable to Ben Selling," said H. W. Parker, a strong Wilson Democrat, of Newberg, at Selling headquarters, yesterday. "After a careful review of the situation, with Mr. Clark. Mr. Lane and probably Mr. Bourne dividing the same vote. It will be dlffloult for either of them to win. For the same reason, indications are encouraging for Mr. Selling." For IS years Mr. Parker, who Is bet ter known as "Citizen" Parker, re sided In Portland, where his Judgment on predictions politically was general ly supported by the election returns. He Is now living in Yamhill County, where ht has a small ranch. Mr. Par ker Is enthusiastic In his support of Mr. Wilson for President and confi dently expects the Democratic nominee to win. When he came to Portland yesterday. Mr. Parker brought with him a small contribution to the Wilson campaign fund, subscribed by the Jackson Club, of Newberg. "The farmers of Yamhill County are almost unanimously , opposed to single tax." continued Mr. Parker. - "In my judgment It will not be approved by the voters of the state. The candidate who declares for single tax or at tempts to evade the Issue assumes a sertous handicap to his candidacy. On the other hand. Mr. Selling by taking an unqualified stand against single tax has added immeasurably to his strength among the farmers." Another visitor at Selling head.iuar ters yesterday was W. P. Keady. an active supporter of Senator Bourne in the primary eleraUon. He Is now sup porting Mr. Selling and the other nomi nees on the Republican ticket. "Although I worked earnestly for the renominatlon of Senator Bourne last Spring." said Mr. Keady yester day, "I am no longer taking an active part in politics. But the question bt fore the voters of Oregon today la. shall wa have a Republican United States Senator? Mr. Selling Is the progressive aTepubllcan nominee and was regularly nominated by the party In the primary election.

"In the primary Republican conven tion in my county, held for the pur pose of selecting delegates to the Chi cago convention, I was the only dele gate in attendance that voted against Instructing delegates for Roosevelt, said Mr. Cunningham yesterday. "My county, however, was strongly for Roosevelt and instructed Its delegates to the state and district conventions to work for the ex-President. "Today nearly every one of these men is working with all his might for President Taft and the Republican ticket. They have taken the position that they are Republicans and refuse to follow anyone out of the party they love and honor. Roosevelt will have a light vote in Missouri in the No vember election."

THIRD TRIAL IN PROSPECT Second Hearing in Bartender's Case Proves1 Unavailing. Persons who think that procedure in the Municipal Court is summary may modify their opinion, in view of the present status of the case of Joe Mo Closkey, a bartender, now pending for a third trial after two former Juries announced hopeless disagreement. At taches of the court say that this is the first time such a thing has happened In that tribunal. McCloskey was arrested on complaint of Mrs. Mary Doan. who alleged that he had sold liquor to her, drunken husband, Ben Doan, over her protest. The evidence for the prosecution was that Doan had been on a debauch for three weeks and that McCloskey had been warned not to sell to him. Look ing through the window, the wife saw Doan served with gin and rushed in and seized the glass. The bartender, who is employed at Fourteenth and Glisan streets, assert ed that Doan had asked for soda wa ter and had- received It, and denied that he had been given intoxicating liquor. Doan took the stand, trem bling like a man with ague, and ad mitted that he had been served gin. The case was prosecuted by Attor ney Hurst, acting for Governor West. At the first trial. Monday, the Jury was out only a few minutes when it announced Its inability to agree. The Jurors were dismissed and another panel was called yesterday. This body remained out a little longer, but reached the same conclusion. . The case has been continued until Saturday, when Judge Tazwell wlll ide clde whether another attempt may4 be made to obtain a verdict. Chinese loan Underwritten. LONDON, Sept. 24.
