The following are the preamble and resolutions adopted by the runners A I liance for ttie organisation of the Kami era' National Trust Wiikukas. Vast auureicalions of cam talists, called syndicates or trusts, have for many years existed In tills country formed for the purpose of unjustly am unlawfully controlling the supply and prices of the products of labor, and Wiikukas, Id the pursuit ol these ends they not only compel the payment of unjust and extortionate prices (or many ol the necessaries of life, but often restrict labor by shutting down tne lac lories, mills and shops to decrease pro auction, and tliereby lorce prices up and Wukksas. Such trusts conspire to. and do, control the price ol all products of the soil, as well as other merchandise and WiiciiKAS, Farmers and laborers are tliereby forced to pay an artilicial and unjust price lor the uucesNarles and con Wkkkkak. Their control of the mar kets is now so absolute that the natural laws of supply and demand often have little or no inliuunce in determining the price at which agricultural products must be sold, and WiiKKKAS, la this respect many of our law makers are law breakers (members of these trust), and Wiibkkas, All know n preventatives of these infamous robberies heretofore tried, including legislative remedies have failed and resulted only in sinking the farming interests yet deeper in the quagmire ol monopoly, and grin ling the tanner yet nner between the upper and nether millstones of incorporated avarice and power, and Whereas, We believe it is within easy reach of the farming class, by com bined and concerted action, to control prices to the extent in the aggregate of many millions of dollars annually (of which they are now plundered), by withholding from sale, for a time, a part or all of one or more of the numerous crops, and Wiieheas, We believe this can be done without cost or expense, worthy of note, theretore, be it Resolved, That a Farmers' National Trust be, and hereby is organized The following are the by-laws adopt' ed: 1. The first annual meeting shall be held one year from the lutli day of June 1801. 2. Each state and territory Bhall be entitled to three delegates. 3.

The executive committee shall have power in their discretion to Hx the mini mum price at which a part or all of any one or more items of each annual crop shall be sold in the nearest general mar ket to the producer, and the Producer shall sell for that price only, less freight from his loculity to such iieneral mar ket, subject to the conditions and limi tations contained in the National Trust pledge. 8. in case there shall be any balunce in the National Trust treasury at the end of any year, then the executive board shall reduce the mumbershio fees for the ensuinu year to such an amount as. in their judgment will, together with the said balance, be sullicicnt to defray nee- t ssary expenses for thd year following 9. No member shall be eligible to or remain in office on the executive com mittee who is in any manner interested directly in any other business or occu pation than agriculture, nor hold any public otlice except town or county of lice while a member of the executive committee. 10. Vacancies on the executive board shall be tilled by appointment, by re maining members oi board. The pledge exacted of the sub-trust organizations and members we give in full as formulated: We, the undersigned members of the Sub-Trust of Farmers' National Trust No. (leave number blank), do hereby solemnly promise and agree each with the other and with t he executive com mittee of the Farmers' National Trust. that we will at all times obey all orders oi tne executive committee ol the rarm ers' National Trust which fix the price of farm products ; that we will not sell at less than the prices bo fixed, unless ab solutely forced to do so by circumstances which we can neither by any means with in our power escape from or control.

His address, which is finely delivered, is followed by a li.glcal argument from Miss Muff of Boston, (Krastus Smith looked like sweet It)) the orator of the evening.

She is the presi dent of tl.e Oregon City Emancipation League and in the middle of her soul- splitting speech is disturbed by Frank Donaldson, her husband, who brings on the stage her dirty little buby to fetch her home. The woe-begoue husband displays his torn clothes to the audience ami persuades his spouse to come along with him, he lugging the baby. Mr. Changeable makes another speech, hav ing suddenly decided that women had better not Vote as it will be likely to multiply the number of neglected, dirty babies, and Mr. Stupp rises from the sa lience to add his vigorous protest to woman being placed on an equality with man. Miss i'enn, who has a mustache, is now called upon for the report of the society and vigorously opposes the lust speaker. Air. Changeable is sure now that women ought to vote and renders this decision as being immutable and unchangeable as the everlasting hills The whole closes with a woman's rights song in which the fair ladies sing very deep bass during the chorus The entertainment was received by the audience wltn an abundance ol laughter and applause, it was written and ar ranged entirely by the gentlemen who look part In It, and was worthy of much larger patronage than it received Many express a desire that the enter tainment be repeated, when, no doubt, there will be a crowded house II you hare headache try Preston's "Hed-Ake Ciiahity as a Businkss.

Editor Courier : If you will allow me a small space in your paper this week 1 would like to say a few words in behalf of my character. About three years airo 1 left Clacka mas county and went to Aiuson county, ush . shortly after u report was start ed by myself that I was a married man ; shortly after this I contradicted the same by giving a lair explanation that the llrst report was only a joke and that 1 was not married, l supposed the lat ter report was taken as true by the pub lic, until December last, when 1 returned to Clackamas county and found that the people still believed that I was married. The people all seem to know (at least they think they do). Now I will mve one and all (no one excepted, not even my own folks) a fair chance to find out for themselves, as so many have bothered themselves about my character. They can write to Arthur Jitylor or Joseph W. Day. Jr. The for mer was auditor of Mason county, Wash., the county in which I resided ever since I left Clackamas, at the time the report started, and he is postmaster at tjheltou, the county test of Mason county; the latter is auditor of Mason county at pres ent, and both of those gentlemen are personally acquainted with me and can tell you whether I am married or not. Ihose gentlemen are men of their word ami honor. If either of those men say that there is such a license on record I will give in but not until then. There is one man in Clackamas county that knows the fact, of this affair, that is llenry W arnick of Spnnirwater. lie was working with me at the time the report started and is the onlv man that can tell the affair from beginning to end. ueorge rarsons, formerly oi t'amas- cus, was tho the man that wiote the let ters to this neighborhood and to the Lot rikk stating that 1 was married. Me can be found at Mossy HocR, Lewis county, Wash. I have written seven articles to the newspapers this winter trying to gvt sume one to approach this subject in a tiublic manner, but have not succeeded in my sttempts, except just enough to make the person who re jdied come at me in a sneaking, back biting way. I will refer the public to two men more, that is W. C. Simons and Fred Ht-amis. Mr. Simons has been county commissioner of Mason county for 12 years; Mr. Beamis is well known in Clackamas county. Well, it is useless for me to sav any more for I think I have given every 'one a chance to find out for himself i( he wishes. Chas. Wilsoji. 6REAT REDUCTI0MV PHOTOGRAPHS!
