ton, and who have had only the right
to purchase goods for cash at The

have been the center of an interest
ing political fight ever since the plan
OF organization was first announced.
The consumers United Stores com
pany was organized two years ago.
Under its plan farmer pays the com
pany 800 and has the right to pur.
chase goods at the stores for 10 years,
at cost plus 10 per cent The com
pany agreed to invest $4,000 in goods
and merchandise at each store. In
many instances all the way from
100000 to $4,000 was collected for
each store. Under the terms of the
agreement the portion in excess of
$4,000 could be used for educational
and propaganda" purposes. Thus a
huge fund was being created for po-
litica purposes
Heretofore the farmers have had
no voice in the management The cor
poration, with $4,000 capital has col
lected $1,lOO,0O0 from the farmers,
and It was found recently when the
Scandinavian American bank of Far.
go was closed by the banking board,
that tho Stores company was $4,000
in debt to the bank The Stores
company has been managed by a
board of directors, made up of
league employees and leaders.
In announcing that the farmers,
are to have control of the company,
it is asserted by Mr. Paddock that
this hac always been Mr.. Townley's
plan o. action when the company
was fully organized.

Little Stories Of the
 DayFron, Washington

There will be no standing police forceswith which to whip recalcitrants into line. There will be no freedom of the seas. There will be no disarma- ment.
 The league will be tribunal of hon. or and law. It will be similar to the Hague .court. It's dictates may or may not be carried out according 10 the desire of the governments.
 This impression came from two sources. The first was direct from Paris with which certain senators have kept always in touch. The sec ond source was the President in his speech of last Saturday. In that ad- dress nothing of details was spoken
 If the league of nations becomes a quilting bee" said one senator, "ev- cry nation will heartily join. The fact that all nations have formally accept ed the idea leads me to believe that our information that the teeth have been taken out of the project-is true. If the league is made innoeuous, the opposition of the Senate will be re- moved.'
 Another senator stated that he had it direct from Paris that never again in the peace conference would "free- dom of the seas" be mentioned.

ARMY WAS EATING
 10,OOO,OOO POUNDS A DAY

Washington, January 29.-(Speeial) According to war statistics, at the time the armistice was signed, the American army in France was eating 10000, 900 of food per day and tNere was in reserve 100 times that amount If transportation had ceased November Il the army on it's own resources could have lived 90 days.
 Three billion meals were eerved the army during the war with Germany. On November II the food in the United States stores and in transit was valued at s300,O0O,O00.
 Washington, January 29.--tSpecial) The Pttsburg Chronicle-Telegraph prints the following Washington dis patch regarding a subject of consid- erable interest and one which The Age Herald previously has touched upon:
 That Oregon should have three sen- ators within 10 days. one of them serving from December 10 to Decem- Der IT only, being succeeded on the last date by the man whom he sue ceeded on the first doubtless seems strange to the reading public. As a matter of fact, the entire proceeding does look like an undignified playing with high office.
 ''1t came about in this way: Senator Harry Lane died in May, 1917, and Charles |. McNary was appointed by the governor to be his successor In November last Frederick w Mulk sy was elected to this vacancy. McNarys 5 appointment being only temporary. of course. McNary was elected to the long term, which begins March 4, 1919. The understanding was, how ever. that Mulkey should resign at once, and that the governor would again appoint McNary who would thus serve out Lanes unexpired term, which expires March 3. 1919. and then begin his full term of six years from that day
 "McNary's appointment lapsed as soon as Mulkey was elected. and MuJ- key appeared on December 10, present. ed his credentials and was sworn in The next day he notified the Senate that he had resigned to take effect December 17, and or that day McNary presented his certificate of his reap pointment by the governor and again took his seat
 This was not Mulkey's first appear ance as a senatorial "stop-gap," how ever. In 1907 he was elected to a va cancy and served from January 23 to March 8
 The purpose of this somewhat sin eular proceeding is said to have been that under it Mir McNary will not lose his committee appointments and rank, and. therefore, will not go to the foot Of the lists, and the next Senate being republican, can reasonably expect pre- ferment that would not have been his had he come in as new member"

WILSON is GIVEN GREAT
RECEPTION IN BAY CITY

San Francisco. Calf, Sept. IL
To an uproarious crowd IN the civic
auditorium here tonight President
Wilson declared that in his trip across
the continent he had become con-
WINGED that the treaty issue would be
decided rightly by the people and
mot by any private purpose of their
own"
He repeated his declaration that the
league of nations was not the work of
the Versailles conference. but grew
out of years of thought by men who
did not devote any portion of their
consideration to politics. Some of the
most constructive minds of both par
ties, he asserted, had been devoted
to the project for a generation.
There was much disorder in the hall
during the address and the president
spoke with apparent difficulty against
a hum of talk in the distant galleries.
once he stop to ask for close atten-
ton but the crowd did not quiet down.
When he left his hotel for the au-
dtorium he was cheered by crowd
which had blocked the street for more
than an hour. On the way he passed
along in a continuous roar of applause
and when he and Mrs. Wilson entered
the auditorium the crowd stood up
and shouted itself hoarse. When the
cheering had been in progress for
more than thirteen minutes 1.-THE Star
Spangled Banner was played on a
pipe organ hut it failed to quiet the
crowd.
Mayor Roloh at last introduced
Chester Rowell, editor of the Fresno
Republican, and republican national
committeeman in 1916, who presented
the president in a single sentence
while the crowd kept up it's shouting.
When Mr., Wilson took the platform
and held UP his hand for silence yells
continued for more than five min
utes in the galleries while some in the
audience shouted put them out" and
others Kissed. There was still much
noise when he began speaking and 1t
continued while the address proceeded.
1t was one of the largest halls in
which the president has spoken, seat
ing $4,000. 1t was packed, many
standing.
