Five hundred thousand roses a half million of the moat beautiful specimens of Portland's favorite .lower were ex hibited in profuse, mountain-high masses in the Auditorium at the Lewis and Clark exposition to the admiring gase of thousands. A majority of the city's gardena contributed to. the show, and no sooner were the gates opened this morning thaji wagon loads began to ar rive. . . The tosea were of every color and va riety. The Amerlcat Beauty And . tha Ulotre Dtjon, the Maresehal Niet and the Tea rose were strung In mighty festoons or bunched In pillars that extended to the--celling, where they burst Into' a thousand shapes and held the spectators spell-bound. Everywhere were large 4ablee-laden--wtth-flowers.a.nd: flowers carpeted the aisles between. The rose show Is the project of the Portlsnd Rose society, and the mem bers of that organisation have worked long and faithfully for the -auccesa which crowned their efforts In emphatic fashion at I o'clock today.

Early this morning three of the city's noted florists went to work under the. direction of W. J3. Slbson and their decoration of ths building was -quickly and perfectly accomplished. On the atage stood a. pergula of roses the lateat fad In modern ' colonial houses Intertwined with climbing vines. Borne Idea of the magnificence of this feature may be obtained from the state ment that more than 15,000 roses were used In its construction. An octagonal arbor occupied the center space Of the lower floor. , There waa no other color besides rose colors In the f'tere and a scientist with an observat ory at hla disposal could not have found apace between the flowers. , The man (Continued on Page Three.)

The east side has been the chief bat tle ground of the campaign. Most of the speeches of both Dr. Lane and Mayor Williams have been delivered In that part of the city. It has beerr-platnly ap I parent that Lanelathe.-Cbolce-Ola large majority of the votera of the east side. His meetings have been large and enthusiastic, while Mayor Williams haa not once had a well-filled hall.' A no ticeable feature of the Lane meetings haa been the presence of large numbers of Republicans, ' who are outspoken In their support of the citisens' candidate for mayor. - Careful estimates of the. vote on the east aide Indicate that Lane will carry It by at least J.O00.'- It Hn confidently predicted by some who have, canvassed that part of the city that Lane will carry every precinct on the east side, with the possible exception of a few Immediately adjoining the river. ' Williams rents his hopes on the vote of the west side. Where the liquor In terests are vtrongeiit. ' Lane's ' friends will not concede, however, that the mayor can carry the west side. They look for a heavy vote In the residence districts which -will more than offset the norths end and the downtown pre cincts. . ... . "-' There are evidences that frauds are contemplated in - Williams' - Interest Fraudulent registration has been prsa tlced jon a large scale-in the north end. The registration ' in the ' Fourth pre cinct Is very heavy and Investigation has shown that many of the names are fictitious. The evident purpose is to run In repeaters. In a single Instance !8 names are registered as living In a lodging house which contains' but "five rooms, and Inquiry disclosed "the fact that not one of the pretended voters -was known to the landlady. This Is but one case " outbf'msny.
