rpHH Tuwnsena club in Modford
has voted to disband because
certain of its membership endeav
orcd to use llic club as a incuus of
riding into political ofrico.
0. 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

with its exotic turban of hair, long
Jado fan earrings that foil to her

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

centuated her height and slimness

This example was the probe

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.

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.
