A1101TTIIAT TRUST.
bt'iToK wT HtiiK! An article In
the luat issue of the Wkst Hiok eu
titled "Who iys the Trust," deserves
a passing notice. Flctlctious In it aa
auniptlons, It can not beacecpied iu its
conclusions Hut with the politic of
the piece I have no tight Tlie object
of thla an Icle ia to attract aUentlou to
the facta In the ciso.
The idea of a "Flour Trust" Is the
work of a conjurer und speak well lor
imagination of your correspondent.
One with such fertility of mind ought
to write atoriee for the Youths Com-
tmnloii. In fnct there Is no Hour trust
iu Oregon, never has been, and the
creation of such a monster la quite I in
probable. The design of the miller'
association la not to limit the manu
facture of Hour and regulate prices, but
to handle the surplus product of the
mill ut the least expense to the mil
ler. Fair minded men will see the
need of such an organisation and wish
it success. Under the old plan, large
tinier were forced Into the hands of
the great milling companies. For such
trade the small concerns were power
less competitor. P,y conibiuatlou the
miller's association hope to overcome
this difficulty. This Is all there I of
the flour trust. '
What then about the advance lu the
prloe of Hour? For this the uianu
facturcr I not wholly to blame; he
generally pays a little more for the
wheat than can lie gotten from the
great operulora for foreign shipment.
