SHEEPMEN PLAN NATIONAL WAREHOUSE

1--WE are here simply to present the
tive Wool warehouse, not to boost it,
said President Goodlng of the Nation
al Woolgrowers association, at the
meeting of the county association this
afternoon In the Commercial club
rooms. ut Is proposition that
doesn't require boosting, and the
great need for such n central ware
house Is demonstrated in the way
Utah and Idaho have oined in its
support. Already 100000 pounds Of
wool have been signed up and the
stock in proportion subscribed, and
we find that wherever we have ex-
planned the proposition the sheepmen
become the boosters.
1--WE will present the proposition to
the country If the growers accept
1t well and good, IL not, we can keep
on fighting the wolves.
"The plan we will present is that
outlined in the East Oregonlan some
days ago. The woolgrowers will own
control of the warehouse. They will
have nine of the Is directors, the
business men of Chicago will have
six, We will have absolute control,
we will put up $25O,OOO in stock for
the project and Chicago will advance
s15O.000.
The wool will be shipped to the
warehouse at Chicago, and sold there
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1908-11-14

direct to the consumer. The big 1'hi-
cago merchants, Marshall Field, Car
son, Pierre Scott & CO., and others
are pledged to use our wool in the
products they handle. The banks
have arranged to handle the wool
and advance as high as three -fourths
its value upon it, but not until II is
sold will the control of his product
pass from the hands of the consumer.
1T will save the woolgrowers thous-
ands. 1t will prevent any such COM
bination upon the part of the buyers
as, in my opinion. existed last season.
"As | said, we are meeting with
wonderful success and without
doubt every cent will be subscribed
within a short time"
President Goodng. who was ac-
companied by w. H. Manns and l. s.
Anderson, explained the proposition
to the local growers this afternoon.
and left them subscription blanks for
themselves and neighbors. Other
matters coming before the associa-
tion this afternoon were the selection
of delegates to the state meeting a.
Heppner next week. the purchase of
the winters salt supply and the need
OF a coyote bounty law.
President Gooding and party leave
tonight for Helena. Mont, where they
meet the Montana woolgrowers on
Monday.
