NEWS REVIEW OF CURRENT EVENTS Stone Tells Senators About Oil Conspiracy and the Senator Wheeler Case. By EDWARD W. PICKARD C ONTIKMATION of the President's nomination of Attorney General Stone to he an associate justice of the United States Supreme court lias been hold up by the senate Judiciary com mittee for many days and the rejec tion of Mr. Stone by the senate threat ened, because he directed the presen tation to the grand Jury In the District of Columbia of evidence in*a con spiracy case Involving Senator Wheeler of Montana. Friends of Wheeler, both Democrats and Insurgent Republicans, thought the case was that in which the Montana senator was indicted In Ids home state and that transfer of If to Washington savored of persecution. Wednesday the attorney general went before the committee and ex plained that' the., government lias un covered a conspiracy of wide propor tions to defraud the United States of oil lands, involving the attempted brib ery of government ofliclals; and as the alleged crime was committed in Wash ington, 'the Indictment was sought there. In accordance with the law. Mr. Stone said lie had ordered a fresh In vestigation of the matter in connection with which Wheeler was indicted in Montana, and added: “The Investigation indicated that Gordon Campbell's promotion schemes Involved primarily the securing, fradu- lently, <>f oil and gas prospecting per mits on public lands in Montana and that the most important element in them was the validating of these per mits by the Interior department and the approval of assignments of these permits by the executive oflieers of the Interior department at Washington. These subsequent investigations changed entirely the aspect of Hie crime wliieh seemed to have been com mitted in Montana.'' The attorney general offered Senator i Wheeler the privilege of testifying, lie^ fore tin* grand jury if he would waive immunity from prosecution for so do-! ing. This seemed to leave Mr. Stone’s op ponents tm ground for further delay in apprining tin* munin itmn, hut the enm- fn The National League of Women Vot ers also Issued a statement declaring that adverse action by one or both hous£a_j»f 1.‘5 states does. mit signify defeat.

They promised to do their lq*>t. The report later was submitted to congress. The plan it presents con templates the creation of a federal co operative marketing board of five mem bers, two of whom shall he the secre tary of agriculture and the secretary of commerce and the three others to be appointed by the President after being nominated by federally registered co-operative marketing organizations. Tire salaries of Hu* three appointed members would he $12,000 a year. The report declares It is the purpose of the plan to allow co-operatives a freedom to develop without governmental in terferenee or domination, except for Hit* police powers lodged with the sec retary of agriculture under the C'apper- Volstead act. The agricultural conference also ad vocates adoption of the long pending resolution directing the interstate com-' men e commission to readjust freight rates so as to relieve farm products of a disproportionate share of transportu- rtnrr costs. The senate already had adopted the conference report on this resolution and it \_\ctit to the President.

Sheriff Hill had f recovered and was able to join in the search, which, he stated, is expected .to place the men again behind the iiafis. At the call of-ewe of-the prisoners | ,who had feigned .illness, the sheriff went to the jail about nightfall with food taken frtam his own kitchen for the prisoners] When he entered the door of the jail a companion of the reported sick prisoner stiuck the sher iff with a blunt implement. They then disarmed the officer, ami are thought to have liberated a negro prisoner in another compartment.

The sheriff reco\ered consciousness * * . shortly after the escape, and gave the alarm. It requ red some time to find keys that would open the jail door, but at length the sheriff was a free man.

Sick for Ten Years v Gained 60 Pounds by Use ofPE-RU-NA Read This Mr. John Wick No matter how long you have been sick or how much you have ' suffered, you must not give up hope. Mr. John Wick, of Meno monee Falls, Wisconsin, did not and is a well man today. In Sep tember, 1918, he wrote: “I have been a user of Pe-ru-na for near ly twenty years. I had catarrh of the stomach for ten years. Noth ing did me any good. I grew worse until a friend advised me to try Pe-ru-na. While using the .first bottle, I felt I had found the right medicine. I am entirely cured. My weight was down to 135 pounds and now I weigh 195 pounds. I have used very little medicine for the last ten years.” The condition known as catarrh al is not confined to the nose and throat. It may be found wherever there are mucous membrances and is responsible for a multitude of troubles. Coughs and colds are catarrhal as well as stomach and bowel disorders. Do as John Wick did. Keep Pe- j ru-na in the house. It stimulates digestion, aids in throwing off the poisonous secretions, enriches the blood, increases the resistance to disease and promotes good health generally. Insist upon having genuine Pe ru—na in cither tablet or liquid form. Your dealer has it. 4 V RISC’S . . /^coughs* Quick RzLei!
