GREEKS' FUTURE TO
BE DECIDED TODAY
Election Held Supremely Ifn
! . portant to People.
VENIZELOS IS CONFIDENT
Failure of Premier and Liberal
Party Might Mean Return ot
Constantine . to . Throne.
ATHENS, Nov. 13. (By the Asso
ciated .Press.) All Greece is deeply
absorbed in tomorrow's election, the
outcome of which is generally ex
pected to be the return of Premier
Venizelos and the liberal party to
power by a large majority. The elec
tion is regarded as having the great
est influence on the country's future.
' Although he has expressed himself
as confident of victory, the premier
has been conducting a most active
campaign. He returned to Athens
Thursday in time to address an armis
tice gathering, . where he was given
an ovation by more than 100,000 per
sons. The Venizelists carried huge wooden
and paper anch&rs. emblem of the lib
eral party. Many persons shouted
"Long live the republic"
. The crowd was made up largely of
workers. The Venizelists assert that
the attendance at the meeting was
twice as large as the opposition's
gathering on the Sunday previous.
Both sides have charged that persons
were paid to attend the meetings.
Trouble Coasted Sure
" While the country is calm, trouble
Is forecast after the election, no mat
ter which side wins. If Venizelos
gets the majority. of 270 of a total of
. 36S, which his supporters claim, if is
expected the royalists will denounce
the elections as fraudulent. Should
the royalists win, the Venizelists
have announced that they will not
accept the political dethronement of
their chief.
Demetros Gounaris, former premier
and leader of the element supporting
the return of former King Constan
tine to thie throne of Greece, who is
the opponent of Premier Venizelos in
the elections, has requested passports
to Italy. If he fails to be elected, his
parliamentary immunity expires.
Gounaris. with, the approval of M.
Venizelos, was permitted to return to
Greece to participate in the elections.
although he was exiled during the
war an the charge, of high treason
His request for passports is regarded
by the supporters of Premier Veni
aelos as a significant indication of
the trend of the forthcoming election.
Allies Are Interested.
: The outstanding question which
Sunday's elections will decide is
whether Premier Venizelos will be
returned to office and thereby given
a free hand in the selection of a new
king or whether the opposition as
headed by Gounaris wins the election.
making possible the restoration to
power of former King Constantine.
-Premier Venizelos is likely to have
a big majority in the new provinces
of Macedonia and Thrace and the is
lends, but In old Greece the struggle
Is a spirited one.
Representatives of the- allies in
Creece are awaiting the election with
keenest interest, both England and
France having strongly indicated
their opposition to any government
which would favor the return of Con
stantine.
It is the belief in allied circles that
the defeat of Premier Venizelos would
probably result in assumption of the
throne by Constantine.
Censorship Is Restored.
The censorship, which ostensibly
Was removed last September, has
again been put in force against for
eign correspondence. In this con
nection it is recalled that on one
occasion recently. Minister of For
eign Affairs Politis announced that
censorship on news sent by foreign
correspondents did not exist, adding
"No civilized country which re-
epects itself would maintain a censor
ship except for military matters."
CASE IS NEXT
TRIAL OF DAIRYMAN ASD HIS
EMPLOYE BEGIXS TOMORROW
Alleged Victim of Attack Is Xot
to Be Found and Is Thought
to lie in Montana.
VANCOUVER, Wash., Nov. 13.
(Special.) The cases of A. Steiger
wald, wealthy dairyman of Wash
ougal, and Homer Maulding, his em
ploye, charged with branding with a
hot iron Dr. Walter Groth, veteri
jiarian, last summer, is to come up
for trial Monday. Judge Bruce Blake
of Spokane will be the trial judge,
sitting for Judge Back.
Dr, Groth left immediately after the
alleged branding and while he ha
hot been found, it is rumored he and
Jite wife are living in Montana.
The case attracted wide attention
at the time and the defendants were
arraigned before a justice of the
peace in Washougal who held that a
crime had been committed and ordered
the men held to the superior court of
(Jlarke county for trial.
At the time it was reported that Dr
Groth had attacked Mrs. Steigerwald
after he had accompanied her to he
home from his own and that Mr.
Steigerwald coming home from the
town council of Washougal, learned
of it. He is supposed to have branded
Dr. Groth on the back the next morn
ing in the dairy barn, after he had
been horsewhipped. Some say the
iron was hot and others say it was
cold. A'subpena was issued for Dr.
Groth, but was returned, "Not found."
LAWS AHE HELD VIOLATED
SOCTHERX PACIFIC ACCUSED
OF NEGLECTING LIVESTOCK.
Train Service From Western Ore
gon Points to Portland Branded
Contrary to Statutes.
. A report has been made to the
Western Oregon Livestock Men's
league and the Portland Livestock
Exchange by Arthur M. Geary, their
attorney, concerning the methods-of
-the Southern Pacific company in han
dling livestock shipments. The mat
ter will be presented to the public
service commission when it meets In
this city on November IS.
A number of instances are given In
vblcU It 13 alleged tbat stock, ship
ments from western Oregon points to '
Portland were not moved with the
promptness required by law and It is
also asserted that the claim depart
ment of the railroad has made rulings
that are contrary to- the - laws of
Oregon.
Regarding the failure of the com
pany to run a weekly livestock spe
cial train, the report says:
The Southern Pacific comDanv Is mak
ing no pretense of running a weekly live
stock special in accordance with section
3 of chapter 50, general laws of Oregon for
iwi.l, wnicn provides that all railroads
hall run on one day each week a live
tock special, which shall make the aver
age rate of speed of 13 miles an hour
from points more than 100 miles from
destinaUon with two hours allowed for
delays W- Junction points.
In- connection with the discussion -ox
his law, representatives of the Southern
Pacific company have offered to run these
specials if the shippers would guarantee
to furnish enough lireetock to make them
remunerative to the railroad company. 1
do not consider the Southern Faclnc com
pany any 'more above the law of Oregon
than is the shipper. I also believe that a
livestock special run from all points on
the Southern Pacific line, so as to arrive
at North Portland on Wednesday evening
of each week, would be well patronized
by the livestock shippers. I know tnat
th I iveetn-u if hn and the members
of the Western Oregon Livestock Men's
league wouia co-pperaw m

of material was converted into baby
clothing, which the chief says he de
sires to turn over to the mother, to
gether with the baby. Financial as
sistance is also promised the. mother.
A note of sadness was apparent
when the theory that the mother
might have jumped into the river
after: abandoning the child was
broached. But the chief does not
place" credence jn that theory, because
a woman called him yesterday, ask
ing how the baby was getting along
and intimating by her. questions

Thousands of housewives 'have

of the money usually spent for conpd

known old recipe for making coujjh
syrup. It is simple and cheap but it
has no equal for prompt results. It
takes rifrht hold of a cough and gives
immediate relief, usually stopping an
ordinary cough in 24 hours or less.
Get i'2 ounces of Pinex from -any
druggist, pour it into a pint bottle,'
and add plain granulated sugar syrup
to make a full pint. If you prefer,
use clarified molasses, honey, or corn
eyrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either
way, it tastes good, keeps perfectly,
and lasts a family a long time.
It's truly astonishing how quickly
it acts, penetrating through every.air
passage of the throat and Junj;s
loosens and raises the phlegm,
soothes and heals the membranes, and
gradually but surely the annoying
