Others present, however, wished to
e1press tchir views. w. II. gahw
told tho club In q very neat little
speech why he supported u. J. Muir.
ray. and received quite 4 hand. DR..
Leonard also took Murray's side OF
the house. while Mr.. Townsend q
cause vas sspoussd by Mr.. Chilcots.
Mr.. upp and others. and his name was
also we'll received.
Everybody took q chance. c. c.
Brewer told how much he had done
for the cause. and made some rather
emphatic remarks when he was called
to order. and requested 10 keep to the
question.
The question before the meeting
WAS the taking OF 4 secret ballot to
what candidate had the
support Of the majority OF the mem
bers OF the club. but the chairman
decided that inasmuch A. everybody
had expressed their choice openly
the secret ballot was no longer any
object. Mr.. Coates made q motion to
adjourn at this time. and after some
more argumen, the question was put
and carried. and everybody took their
doilraGs and dishes and went home.
The most noticeable point In the
discussion was that Of the six cand,-
dates for mayor. only two, Murray
and Townsend. were supported.

ship roll Of the Klamath County Orc
Eon Dry Club 10 the 500 mark, which
was considered very conservative
estimate. Plans were formed TO for.
ward tn. movemcn, In the various
precincts OF the county. and II was
also decided that the branch formed
last night should be known - the
klamath Falls Oregon Dry Club. and
itn boundaries TO be the same a. the
L!nkville district.
I At this time T.. NJ. Chiicots made
the move that Injected some spirit
into tho meeting that could have been
entirely left out without harmins tho
objects OF the organization In the
least. In q neat little speech he sug-
seated that . secret ballot be taken
Ia an effort to ascertain the choice of
the majority OF the numerous candi-
dates for the lnayoraiiy OF this city.
While probably not Intending TO do
80. Mr.. Chiicote left the impression In
the minds of many that IL would be
considered the duty Of the members
to support the candidate 80 chosen.
Fred Hindman evidently looked st
IT this way. for in reply 10 the prsvi-
GUS speaker he stated In most en-
phstie language that he would not be
bound by any such arrangement. -
there were two candidates In the race
that he would not vote for under asy
circumstances. and named them ~
Mr.. Townsend and Mr.. Nicholas. CIV
ing as his reason that neither one OF
them sought to enforce the Law while
In once. after taking oath to do 20.
and " they fell down on their promise
once. there was nothing 10 show that
they would not do 20 again. On being
asked by chiicote to specify instances
Mr.. Hyndman proceeded TO cite sever
nj instances. one Of them being that Il
took the state labor commissiousr 70
make Mayor Nicholas understand that
the cight-hour Law must be obeyed In
the Sixth street improvement. even
after hts attention had been called
To IL several times BY local parties.
Mr. To~nscnd's otncial life was also
criticized to the evident satisfaction
Of the request to specify. ~ NO more
such questions were asked.
Mr. Hyndmsn also stated that he
v as opposed TO 4 secret ballot on the |
ground that NO man should bs afraid |
10 state his choice openly. and give
his reasons for such choice.
Al this junciure II was pointed out |
by one or two members Of the club |
that the object of the organization |
Was to forward the Oregon Dry"
In this county. that the
party did not have any |
In the neld for the once In /
question. and under such circum- |
stances II was but natural that tho
,hoice OF the members should be at |
iariance, Il could but cause dissention |
10 allow the discussion to proceed.
