Except Sunday Telephone CiKOIlOii PUTNAM, BIBLE THOUGHT FOR TODAY ' The Lord will ijive streiiyth bless hia people with peace. Our Bold Brigadier General George embattled hosts under his charge, this time to effect the ot United btates Marshal Clarence K. Holchltiss. Attacking the senatorial citadel, he has issued the ultimatum that Senators McNary and Stanficld must surrender and that Hotchkiss must go, or the senators will be retired to private life through loss of the votes of the Spanish-American and World war veteran organizations, which the adjutant-general declares he controls as well as the commonwealth. I Concerning this latest maneuver of the great strategical genius, the Portland Journal says : j Notice hits bben served on Slunfield, lhat unless Hntchlilss is rfiiven tlio'gntG' he can harbor no expectation of getting any Votes at tho 1920 primary election from Adjutant General While or any of tile army under His command and possess a good deal M political power and to be able to sway quite a few votes when he, makes up his tilings Senator Stnofleld is most eagerly cherishing just now. ; We have always suspicioned state militia was to furnish a hero, but have wondered the organizations; outside of . bonuses and pensions now1 we know. They exist to accept orders and deliver the votes for our bold brigadier and further his political plots'. If the senators refuse to obey orders, they will probably be court-martialed and shot at sunrise, just as captains, and colonels are demoted and discharged if they don't vote right. Some fearful punishment is probably in reserve to maintain discipline. The luckless SUnfickl, like the poor boob who took a drink at Camp Lewis, will probably have his epaulets publicly torn-off by the outraged commander and be drummed out of camp. . If.'tho situation becomes serious, there is but one way the country can be saved. As in 1922, the intrepid adjutant must throw himself into tho breach and as "the man of the hour," become a candidate in the 192G primaries and, gel wounded in the windshield again. ' , Throwing a Monkey Wrench Action of the Oregon Public Service Commission in seeking to reopen the Southern l'acific-Union Pacific controversy over the Central Pacific, which was settled satisfactorily to all parties by the Interstate Commerce commission, in order to force the Southern Pacific to grant common-user'. privilege over railroad extensions under construction, threatens to block and indefinitely delay the railroad building era for Oregon now underway. Construction of the Natron Cut-off, the purchase of the Strahorn road and the Nevada narrow-guagc line to Susan-' ville, have all been based upon the Central Paoific com promise. Until this issue was settled no construction was undertaken. If tho controversy is reopened, construction will unquestionably be halted pending final settlement. ' The Great Northern and Northern Pacific propose an ex tension from P.end to Klamath Falls and the commission seeks to prevent this duplication of lines over a portion of the distance by forcing common user privileges over the new Nalron Cut-off. To accomplish this, the Central Pacific' settlement is al tacked. : The Southern Pacific naturally objects to furnishing a rival with an entrance into a field in which it was a pioneer and had developed. Having risked its capital in construction, il does not seem fair that it should be forced In surrender the advantages secured by its enterprise and foresight and share them with a competitor. If the competitor desires to enter the field, (hat is ils privilege, but 11 should not lie at Southern Pacific expense. ! The more money railroads spend in construction in Oregon the better. If they want to one of them afterwards, lhat is their privilege. So we cannot see the wisdom of thu commission's attempting to dictate railroad construction jmlicies, especially as it involves postponement of construction already underway. II is throwing a monkey wrench into the railroad construction machine that is likely to smash it.

Abolishment of tho athloti:: council by action of the a&sociated rtudents seavral months ago came in for severe criticism. Formerly the athletic council determined (he athletic policy of the school. iiitl had on H tw.i members of the alumni association. Abolishment )f the council, anu placing matters pertaining to athletics - in the lu-ndtj oi the executive committee, consisting of students and no alumni, severs the last connection between alumni and school, it was. leclareu. Former members of the council further stated that they d never been notified of meet ings, nil business of the 'council 1-eing transacted entirely without their knowledge- and consent. Claim va3 made by members of the executive committee during the present yecr, which took over the authority of the council", that tho council, as such, authorized expenditure; of too much money. II was stated that the athletic de-, Pdi-tment is now 51500 in debt. ! Extreme . dissatisfaction., witln the record,, particularly . in ath-i letics, of tin university during the past few years was expressed by nu-ny of the old, graduates, who rc uJled times when Willamette, teams had defeated Oregon, O.

The meeting was held in the 11 brary of the university, located in Waller hall. The chapel room. which the alumni had intended to use for a meeting place, was used at the time of alumni meeting for the class day exercises. The need for an alumni secre tary, paid by the university, came i;i for considerable comment. "They don't seem to know we're l:ero except when it comes time for a financial campaign," said one aiumnus.

GROCERS TO JOIN IN BIG CHAIN PLAN (Continued from pnpto tne) the most modern -service una enter into. a compact to carry on a friend ly competition through clean meth ods to increaso their business. The organization will throw Into the field a local chain of stores which will be in competition with outside chain store, local money against outside money, and by a process of collective buying, collec tive advertising and modernized store methods moot tho modern conditions confronting the indepX dent retailers at this time Not Portland Scheme Tills is the plan which will take the place of an organization sub sidiary to tho Independent Groc ers association of Portland pro posed some time ago, and it Is de clared by those fathering it will give to the Willamette valley the finest grocery system of any simi lar territory in, tho world. The stores in the Triangle sys tem will be standardized through out with the most effective meth ods and the clennit and most sanitary fixtures, under present plans, with every plan put into vogue to givo the highest class of service possible to the public and at the same time, through a col lective system of buying make a competition possible which will rebound to the benefit of the pub lic In every way. It is understood a large number of retailers here, at Albany, Cor vallis and other points already have signified their deep interest in the movement and are willing to get into the gamo and develop a real storo system which will give the; most up-to-date service possible. AVhoIcMiilers Expand I The Increase in capitalization of the Willamette Grocery company from $150,000 to $250,00.0 is a separate proposition from the pro poaedorgranization of retail chain stores. ! The stock, however, will be sold to retail grocers throuRhout the WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1925 counties, in which, the grocery coin pany operates. The grocery com pany was or g;inized five years ago with a cap ital stock of 25,000, whkh later was increased to $50,000 then to $100,000, then to $150,000 and then In this latest move to a quar ter of a million dollars.
