All elections were unanimous, de spite rivalry displayed prior to the general meeting. The group was addressed by candi dates for state offices and congress. "We must give the public real ideas . In the coming campaign." said Char les A. Sprague of Salem, nominee for governor. "Too, we must supply Jobs, not doles, and we must provide oppor tunity for youth," he continued.

The purebred Chesapeake dog who last fall saved a mans life died an agonizing death early this morning, The dog was let out a little after 11 o'clock last night and was heard around the house during tie next hour, It was stated by his owner. W. H. Fluhrer of Wellington heights. At 13:30 a. m. Kip was found desd in the driveway of the Morris Leonard residence across the way. The dog had gone to the Leonard pool for a drink, Mr. Fluhrer thought. "Kip did not get far away from the house' and he was therefore poisoned In the neighborhood," said Mr. Fluhrer, visibly affected by the tragic end to his heroic dog. A piece of meat containing cyanide poison was found this morning near the Fluhrer kennel, it wss stated by Dr. Stanley E. Philips. Poot-morten tests showed tenta tively that the dog died of cyanide poisoning, Dr. Philips said. Further tests were to be made to confirm the preliminary findings, he added The Southern Oregon Humane society this afternoon offered a re ward of 280 for Information leading to the arrest and conviction of the poisoner.

It waa last fall that Kip saved the life of El wood Strader. a bakery truck driver, who was duck hunting Klamath lake. Strader fell Into the water from a raft and, heavily clothed, could not swim. He called for help. Kip went to his rescue and towed him safely to shore. The story of the rescue was published alt over the world. Kip was three years old. Mrs. H. M. Thompson of 14 Almond street reported today that her Per sian cat was found dead yesterday noon in the woodshed behind her residence, also apparently the vic tim of poison. The death was to be Investigated by the humane so ciety. The cat waa a pet of Mrs. Thompson's four-and-a-half-year-old son, Jerry.
