33 PERCENT
REGISTRATION
CAST ATNOON
Total Banoting Expected
To Reach rs percent
Mark Many have To
Be Sworn In.

With an approximate SS per
cent Of the registered vote in the
IS Salem precincts cast up to the
noon hour 1t was evident that the
total balloting In today's elec-
tion would run easily to the 75
percent mark that has been pre-
dicted, and probably more.
Compared with former elections
a 33 per cent vote at noon is a
high average for that time OF
day. AT the last primary the vote
at that time of the day was only
IS per cent and it Is seldom that
more than 20 per cent Of the vot-
ers cast their ballots before /
o'clock in the afternoon.
At 1880 this afternoon the line
of voters at the polls was steadily
increasing at all Of the polling
places and an exceptionally heavy
vote OF women was indicated for
the afternoon.
Ignoring as usual the admoni-
tion to vote early, the electors are
still holding off and there is
every indication that record
late vote will be cast during the
late afternoon and this evening.
OF the more than 5000 registered
voters In the city It was evident
at noon that fully $500 OF them
I would cast ballots before the polls
close at O'Clock.
Many Sworn In
In view OF the intense interest
that has been stirred up by the
campaign OF the past few weeks,
the surprising development of to-
days polling was the number OF
voters who had not registered and
had to be sworn in. In one pre-
cinct IS votes had been sworn In
up to noon. Both forces In the
gubernatorial contest were active
throughout the day rounding up
the stray and tardy voters and
swearing them in.
Due to the use of double cleo
tion boards in all of the precincts
in the city and in most OF the larg-
er towns Of the county the gather
ing OF early reports tonight Is ex-
pected to be rapid. BY 8 O'Clock a
large part of the early vote will
have bdsn counted and gathered
for compiling by the newspapers.
Two Freeholders Needed
Provisions of the law requiring
six freeholders to swear In the
vote Of an elector In counties
having over 100000 registered
voters has resulted In some con-
fusion locally. This provision
only applies to Multnomah coun-
ty. In all other counties of the
state the affidavits Of two free
holders only are required to swear
in a voter who is not registered.
Up to ! o'clock the vote in
six Salem precincts was:
Precinct No. 11-204 votes out
Of 600.
No. 1913 votes out OF 604.
No. 1919 votes out OF 44S.
No. 9--135 votes out OF 543.
No. 12--146 votes out Of b45.
No, 17-158 votes out of 457.

Editor Ordered Freed.

Constantinople, Nov. 7.-(By
Associated Press Ali Kemal
Bey, editor of the Constantinople
anti-nationalist newspaper, Sabah
has been arrested and condemned
to death by. the Turkish authori
ties here, the allies have been in
formed. The sallies representative
gave Rafet Pasha, the new civil
governor of the city, As hours tc
release tha editor.
Rafet replied he was unaware
of the arrest but would investi-
gate. 1t was reported here today
that the editor has been hanged
at Ismid after crowd had half
lynched him, but this was not
confirmed officially.
The allied commissioners feel
that If the arrest Is allowed to
stand it would be likely to lead to
the Imprisonment Of hundreds OF
other residents of the city, Turks,
Greeks and Armenians, who enjoy
the confidence and respect of the
allies.
Invasion Threatened.
The allied action with regard
to Ali Kemal Bey had been pre-
ceded by appeals from hundreds
of Turks to the British authorities
here to accord them safe conduct
so that they might join the great
exodus of Greeks and Armenians
which has been in progress re-
Gently since panic set in over the
possibility Of the nationalists TAX
ing control in Constantinople and
sending In their troops. The ar
rest and condemnation of the edi-
tor gave the signal for all the re-
naming prominent Turks to be-
gin to seek cover.
All day yesterday the allied
high commissioners held frequent
conferences over the threatened
wholesale invasion OF the Kemal-
lists and the menace OF anti-Chris-
tian uprising. The British armed
patrols about the city meanwhile
exercised the greatest vigilance In
protecting, life and property.

FROM WATERPROOF. LA.
New Orleans Christian Advocated

Dear Brother Carley: Please pub
lish a few lines from the above
charge. We have four appointments
and have held revivals at three
points. We held our meeting in
Waterproof during the high water
and just closed when the levee broke
about IL miles below US and flooded
q great section Of our farm land.
We had q fine meeting and received
sixteen members.
We went to Wesley chapel next,
where the people are noted for
their good dinners and big-hearted-
ness. We had four additions TO the
church. On the last day of the meet
ing the good people gave the pastor
the nice sum of $50 as a token Of
appreciation.
We have recently closed q very
successful revival at st. Joseph,
where the pastor had the cooperation
Of all the churches Of the town. The
song services were led by Mr.. Otis
Spinks. He is a fine young man and
truly religious. His work with US
will remain through the days and
months to come. We received eleven
into the Methodist Church on pro-
fession Of faith, and one went into
the Presbyterian Church.
There have been about 81 acces-
sions to the church to date on the
charge and still there remains one
meeting to be held at Newellton.
Our old friend, I. b. Robertson, ID
the principal Of the High School
there, and a fine worker in the
church.
During August we organized q Sen.
Tor. Epworth League at Waterproof,
which now has more. than 40 men,
bers and ID doing good work; also
at the close Of our meeting in st. Jo-
seph, we organized an intermediate
League with 16 members.
We are looking forward to q full
report by Conference.
Yours in Christ,
