I. Maxwoll, member of the disbanded club said yealorduy, "Townaendlte supporters of Willis Mahoney are trying to nut Mu honey Bupportcra at the bcud ot every club hero. They aro using the Townsond clubs to ploy poli tics. That's what broke up the club." It Is wholly amazing that the Hoseburg Townaend club has not yet bad slmilur trouble. Local Townsond club inonibora are un questionably being razzledazzled by the politicians in their ranks. There are the Mahoney advocates, republican candidate "brlngcr-out-era," and democrut party ambi tious all hoping to prevail at el ection time as the result of Town send club loyalty. How any or ganization can withstand the train caused by selfish and greedy men attempting to use It for their own purposes is a question. The luro of luscious county Jobs wait ing for the plucking with the aid of the Townsond clubs has at tracted the schomors , as syrup luros files. As Jobs go, county Jobs are pretty good. But county govern ment bus nothing whatever to do with whether or not the Townsetyl plan is passed. County govern ment cannot have the slightest In fluence upon congress toward the puusuKo of the plan and county government will have no part in tho administration of the plan if the McUrourty bill is passod. Hut with an cyo out for political plums and tho knowledge that tho Town iend group represents Important Voting strength, a number of local politicians huvo espoused the "cause." Many of those who aro offering thcmHolvcs for eloclion as Townsond candldutos would not be sorlouHly considered undur normul circumstances. In fact, wo have the picture of politically ambitious candidates, eomo of whom have boon unsuc cessfully running for offlco for years, now nulling boldly under tho Townsond banner, certain that their TownHcnd ntTlliulion will bring them the success they have Do long sought In vain. Thus wo fato tho nnsslhlllly of Our county government being adzed by political opportunists who have attached IhcntKclvcs to tho Townaend organization. Houglus county voters would do Well to base their doolfdous upon the results of rurcrul study Into tho quullflculions of those seeking Office, rather than upon the en thusiasm of tho candidates to pouso tho Towuscnd cause.

And yet Helen was sick with anxiety, Irene Hiley was married on tho second Thursday in December at high noon. To see Irene standing beside Dirk at tho improvised al tar in the Terhune apartment, she In deep green velvet trimmed with silver tox, her sleek head with its exotic turban of hair, long Jado fan earrings that foil to her shoulder, and her smooth face as impenetrable aa a lleuda mask, it was hard to helmvo that an hour before she had been in a fever of nervousness and irritability. She wus tho tallest or the Illley girls almost five foot eight, and alio ac centuated her height and slimness with her erect proud carriage. Her ralher wide Polish cast of counten ance lent itself to drooping ear rings and the bland sophisticated manner she affected. Irene Hiley was the typo of woman ono turn ed mound lo stare at. She was exot lo und alluring before allure became a mass product, That awful hour before the Kileys, awed and subdued, arrived at the vast book-lined living room of 1 ho Teiiiune apartment!

Anastasia was the only one who dared cross Irene and she did it, Walter often suspected, out of sheer malicious delight lu goading her eldest daughter to fury. "Why not 1 shouldn't wear my diamonds'.'" Anastasta's black eyes, prunes in her leathery face, snapped "They're mine. They're paid for!" "That Isn't the point. Cultured people don't blaze with diamonds like an electric sign at noon." "(Mi. let her alone. Irene, flet dressed yourself. They'll think she's an eccentric," Mthel who bad dressed at her own npartment. sat stiffly on the chaise lounge watching.

Her hair was cut short in 11 boh alter the fashion set by Irene ( asite. still a daring thing in those days, and across her wide, low forehead ran a -bang.

"You didn't even come to my wedding. At least I do you the honor of attending!" "Your wedding!" Irene snorted, "to that sign painter, that would be artist."

This example was the probe of the forces which pushed America into the World war, A prominent banker was on the stand proceeding to his interrogatory destination by easy stages. A battery of six smooth-bore, muzzle-loading senators were fil ing round questions at the banker, He was answering to the best of his ability, seeking to enlighten without actually edu ' eating. He knew that a little knowledge was a dangerous thing. And, for no reason at all, the cross-examination switched from war loans lo grouse shooting in Scotland. ''A bag of two hundred a day," said the banker, "is not unusual for a sportsman with a good eye." The senators were amazed ut tho feathered statistics. A bag of two hundred a day for a sportsman with a good eye is terrific. It would mean he would require two hundred more grouse for the other baggy eye. In tho twinkle of a rheumatic elbow tlie senate had been changed from a hall of legislation into a corridor of the Audubou society. The only thing that we, the people, learned about war loans was bow international bankers while away their idle grouse. 'ortunately, the banker was a sportsman and popped off no sena tors on the wing. He was wearing his cut-away coat and his striped trousers. Nobody knows what might have happened or how many lives might have been lost if he had been wearing his tweeds. DELEGATES TO V.F.W. REUNION ELECTED At the regular meeting of the V. F. W.

OF DOUGLAS IS SET Public Cooperation Asked in Research Job Under ' WPA Program. nOSKDL'UG, Ore., March 20. Field-work for the historical rec ords survey, the new project of the federal writers' program of the WPA, will be started in Douglas county March 23 by Leslie Lowell of Portland. The purpose of this nationwide undertaking is to col lect information for a comprehen sive Index of the basic materials for research in the history of the United States. The results of the survey in Douglas county are to be included in a separate Oregon index, which will be printed by the University of Oregon Press. The area that is now Douglaa county was once known as Uiuiqua county. In 1852 the new county wus created and named for Senatur Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois. Hoseburg, where Aaron It use of Michigan settled in 1851; Scotts burg, once the metropolis of south ern Oregon; Gardiner, "the White. City by the Sea," which was nam ed after a Boston merchant, whose vessel, the liostonlan, was wrecked at the mouth of the L'mp qua river In October, 1S50; Smith fiver, named after Jedediuh S. Smith, of the Missouri Fur com pany, whose nluetcen men were at tacked by the Indians near the mouth of the Umpqua in 1K28, und ' ull killed except three these are a few reasons for the historical im portance of this county. Among the public sources of in formation which Mr. Lowell will examine are the archives in the courthouse, the records lu the various city halls of the county, and relics that may be in the pos session of historical and pioneer societies. He will also undertuko an extensive inventory of privulely owned historical materials. Alfred Powers, dean of the gen eral extension division of the Ore gon state system of higher educa tion and state director of federal writing, urges that all persons who own or know of historically inter esting letters, diaries, ledgers, pho tographs, articles of early furni ture, etc., report such relics either to Mr. Lowell at Hoseburg or the Historical Records Survey, Bedell building, Portland, Oregon, so that the survey in Douglas county may be aB exhaustive as possible. The survey does not contemplate the removal of any relic from its present owner, since its object is merely to record what the item is and in whose hands.
