That thera will b a spirited con test In the election of sovernors for the Portland Commercial Club, to be held January 21. Is already apparent br the presentation of names In oppo sition to tha ticket presented by the nominating committee. One full ticket and one Independent candidate are al ready In tha field and It Is likely that there win be several additional names and combinations before January when the names are to be posted. Last j ear was the first year that there was ro evldenoe of Insurgency and tha ticket suggested for consideration by the nominating committee was elected without appreciable opposition. The anti-regular ticket Is based largely upon tha desire- of the mem bers of the club wno patronise the bil liard room for representation. They contend that they have had aa repre sentative on the board of governors for three or four years, and Inasmuch aa they furnish a good share, of the funds they want three or four seata on the board. Uedley V. Carrlngton. of the George Murton Audit Company, 1 chief spokesman for tha antls and la directing their campaign. William M. Kllllngsworth's candi dacy la baaed upon the action of the Portland Kealty Board at Its recent meeting and the appointment of a com mittee to secure the consideration of the board's claim. It Is held by the real estate men that they should be represented upon the board of gov ernors and have a vote In the oper ations of the club. It is asserted that real estate Interests are now not rep resented. With regard to tha amendments which will be voted upon, the antls argue that It Is Imposing an extra cost asea tha club for all rant presidents to receive life memberships, which ex empt them from dues, and that United Statea Army and Navy officers should be admitted but that they should re ceive no other favors than are accorded any other member In duea and Initia tion fees. Tha election will be held In the par lors of tha club from I to I Saturday, January It. Tha regular annual meet dng will be held at I o'clock. Members REVENUE IS INCREASED Mayor Simon Studies Effect "ew Liquor Law. Every detail of the new liquor ordi nance is being studied by Mayor Simon, preliminary to determining regarding hie approval of the ordinance. The Mayor yesterday morning caused sta tistics and estimates to be prepared to determine whether tha revenue to re sult from the new 'ordinance will be a material Increase over previous rev enues. From these he learned that the new law would probably bring Into tho city treasury about $10,000 a year more than the present ordinance. The figures show that the revenue for 110 under the present law amount ed to 136i.SU. 10, while the estimates prepared by the license department show that the new ordinance should bring a revenue of about $$7.000 a rear. -I cannot arrive at any unUl after I have given the ordinance careful study." said the Mayor. "I am going through It from beginning to end for the purpose of thoroughly under standing It before I act on It." There has been some suggestion that the terms of the ordinance makes valid powers of attorney gmnted by tha new ordinance for two years to breweries, by which they can control the saloon men. There was no mention In the former liquor lawa of the city of these powers of attorney and when the City Attorney was asked for an opinion re garding their validity, he held that they had no legal standing, as the liquor trafflo waa entirely In tha hands of tha Council. In the new ordinance, however. It Is provided that powers of attorney now In existence "shall be null and void so far as the City of Portland Is con cerned, from and after December SI. 1911." Whether the courts might con strue this sentence to meoa that until December "SI. 1912. powers of attorney are made valid. Is a question that may have to be determined later. Tha new ordinance, if approved by Mayor Simon, will go into effect April 1. and after that time all liquor licenses, with the exception of saloon licenses, will be Increased. COURT HALTS SPENDTHRIFT E. C. Bronaugh Named Guardian of Leon Vlal, Wealthy Youth. Leon Vlal. a rich young spendthrift whose wife sued him for a divorce sev eral days sgo for cruelty, was placed under a guardian yesterday. On applica tion of Paul Vlal. brother of Leon.

Until several months aico he was under the guardianship of It. 1 Durham, who resigned that trust several months ago. POULTRY CLUB NUCLEUS Association Elects Officers and Plans for Next Year's Show.

There are fewer than 10.000 acres now bearing. That there are not to exceed 100 acres of commercial bearing orchards In Linn County, where three firms are planting or already have planted 6000 acres of young trees. Other districts report similar progress. Reckless Marketing Avoided. Apprehension on the part of the fruit growers Is centered In the danger of over production and reckless dumping of huge quantities on the market for the benefit of speculators, who will have facilities to store the surplus.
