Against Sam Frederick Steiwer From Ballot he had appeared before the Marion county grand Jury and that he did not have sufficient legal evidence to offer to warrant an indictment against Steiwer on charges of failing to account for certain cam paign fund expenditures.

He added:. 1 ': i "In addition to the Henshaw charges and the 'yellow ticket' fraud, the court will be able to question you and Mr. Steiwer and some others about a $46,500 Stei wer campaign fund that I am told --and that I believe was contrib uted by some corporation men in Oregon and eastern states prior to April 13. This $46,500 slush fund was in addition to 'the Stei wer campaign expenditures cov ered y the accounts filed with the secretary of state. If the story is true, and I believe it is, that would furnish one reason why candidate Steiwer swore only to campagin expenses made after the 13th day of April.

KL1 WIZARD HITS. n Offensive Against Roman ism, Aiienism and Boisev- ism Asked by Evans . WASHINGTON. Sept. 14. (AP) An immediate offensive against "romanism, alienism, bol shevism, and anti-americanism of all. kinds" was the battle cry sounded here today by the Ku Klux Klau by its emperor and im perial wizard. Dr. Hiram V. Evan's. There was an instant and vocif erous response from the hundreds of delegates attending the third biennial conclave of the organiza tion. Time and time again as the Imperial wizard mapped out the Klan program of the ensuing years the Washington auditorium rang with the cheers of the knights. While Dr. Evans was cheered again and again during his address the greatest outbreak came when he urged klansmen to use every effort to take the United States out of the world court. lie was declaring for adherence to the principles of 'the founding fathers against entangling allian ces. . . ' The imperial wizard asserted he had heard it said that the league of nations would interfere in Mex ico,, and predicted that if Europe did Interfere "in that country it would find itself in trouble. - - "If any European nation lands M force in Mexico," he shouted, and if the United States govern- kment is ; not ready to act, thank God there are enough . klansmen in America to repel them." aristocrat of pavements facts an In our . mmmm BRITISH SEH! , BATTLE CHINESE Affray Called Serious as Some Reports List Native Dead at 2,000 LONDON. Sept. 14.-(APJ. Reports from "China prinfed here today described fierce fightidg on September 5, between the British forces and ' the Chinese. Some dispatches reported 2,000 Chinese casuaJties. ;The officials here say that figure is "very greatly exag gerated." though it is admitted the affray was serious. The encounter was at a port on the upper Yangtze river between General Yang-Sen's legionnaires nd a small British" naval force. It was much like an eighteenth century naval battle staged for the movies, with hand to hand fighting. The British were greatly out numbered but effected a dramatic release of the British officers held prisoners aboard merchantmen which had been seized by the Chinese and crowded to the rails with guards. Everything appeared quiet as ihe Kiawo. manned by a British naval force, steamed alongside the captured Wanhsien. AIL. that was to be! seen of the Wanhsien .were groups of natives squatting about in a seemingly peaceful manner. But as soon as the British party came ; aboard, the snip became alive with riflemen and machine runs -poured a leaden hail into the British seamen. It was esti mated that 400 Chinese lined the rails of the Wanhsien and poured deadly fire into the Kiawo which was promptly returned. While desperate fighting was going on. on the lower decks a boarding party swarmed aboard the captured steamer and rescued the British officers who had 'bar ricaded themselves in the officers' quarters of the vessel. The. fight ing continued for an hour after when the British ship drew off with the fire of everal thousand troops on both sides of the river centered upon it. The British gunboat Widgeon ran close ashore and opened up with a quick firing gun and the gunboat Cockshafer, with her six-inch guns, Silenced Yang-Sen's field pieces and de stroyed his headquarters and other marked positions. It was learned later, that , Yang- Sen had decamped 20 miles"4n land several hours before Ihe fight;-. While the Kiawo and.-ttj.:t:totuty to 4TO East Wanhsien were engaged Chinese guards .'aboard the other .com mandeered ship, the Wantung, tried.jto-kill two British officers held prisoner aboard her. - Both Jumped " .overboard',., and one was drowned while the other swam safely to a French gunboat. , The Commercial Book Store has everything you need In books and stationery and supplies for the school, office or home, at the low est possible prices.
