STATE ORGANIZATION.
The Plan Adopted By the Alliance at Their
Recent Meeting at Oregon City.
The plan ot organization adopted is as
follows:
Eaoh precinct organization to have
permanent executive committee of five,
which oommittee to select one of its
number who is to act as a member of the
county central committee. Each oounty
central committee to be composed ot one
member from each precinot or ward.
They will Belect at a regular meeting five
of their number to constitute thejexecu-
tive oommittee of said county central
committee, the present three delegates
at large to hold over until next reorgan
ization. The state central committee
shall be composed of three members, who
are on the national executive committee,
and of one member from each county
executive oommittee. The state execu
tive oommittee shall consist of five mem
bers of the state central committee, who
are to have charge of the affairs of the
people's party, unless the same is assured
by the entire central committee. The
state executive committee is to direct the
actions of those elected to office, in ac
cordance with the generally prevailing
wishes of the members of the people's
party throughout the state, or using its
own judgment in cases when their are no
speoial preferences on the part ot the
membership at large. During sessions
of the legislature, the state executive
committee shall establish headquarters
at Salem and direct the action ot the
members of the legislature, eachot whom
is to be pledged to abide by the deoiaion
of the committee. And so are auy and
all accepting a nomination from the peo
ple's party pledged to abide by the de
cision of the slate executive oommittee
on all politioal matters affecting the
honor of the party and the interests of
the oitizens.
The committee whenever and wher
ever possible sLiull consist of one dele
gate from each county, appointed by the
oliair, unless otherwise divided oy the
body when in session. Each preoiuot
exeoutive committee to oompile a list of
voters of its respective preoincts, a oopy
of whioh is to be transmitted to the
county exeoutive oommittee and one to
the state executive committee, the list to
give the postolliaa address and party af
filiations, if any. On election days, the
committee in each preoiuot is to be at
the voting place, and try to impress each
voter with the importance of the occa
sion and use all honorable means to get
such votes favorably iuolined to the
oause of the people by supporting ilB
candidates.
RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED.
The following resolutions were
adopted:
Resolved, Tunt we adopt the referen
dum and initiative, to-wil: That all laws
-ttiall be submitted to the people for re
jeotion or approval, and that the people
iliull have un equal right with the legis
lator, s and congress to initiate measures
for enactment into law, and that they
shall have the right to recall their legis
lators and congressmen for cause.
Resolved, That our 9,000,000 farm
moitgages, the condition of the thou
sands of unen-ployed and of the world's
starving millions shall be to ns both a
warning and a spur to uutiriug, uuitcd
aotion.
VVhekbas, This convention is com
posed ot wealth producers; therefore,
be it
Resolved, Tbnt we recognize in the
money power of the world the common
enemy of all wealth producers, regard
less of nationality; that we recognize the
universal brotherhood of bumanity and
extend our hearty sympathy to the down
trodden masses of every nation in their
struggle for better conditions.
Resolved, That we demand a law pro
uitnting the confirmation of mortgage
sules, unless such sale shall equal till per
cent ot the assessed.
A resolution thanking the people of
Oregon City for their hospitality and the
officers of the convention for their earn
est work, was passed, and the conven
rion adjourned.

The little fellow had been ill for nearly

Yet again we hope to meet thee
When the day of life is Bed,
And In heaven with Joy to greet thee,
Where uo farewell tear is shed.

morning acoompanied by the grief
stricken family, and whs interred at Lex
ington Briday. The deoeased was well
and favorably known here, baviug long
been a resident. Ilia untimely end de
prives a heart-broken mother of a duti
ful son, the sorrowing father of his right

willing helpmate, and bis classmates a
faithful comrade. Deceased would have
been 19 years old April 6th.
Friday night a gale of unparalleled
severity struck the town, blowing the
sand from the adjacent hills in a solid
phalanx. It wns impossible for a few
minutes to see across the street. The
U'Uuoky mortal who was compelled to
face it went home feeling gritty. The
orly damage doue was the washing awny
of the ferry wharf on tbe Washington
side from its position. However, it did
uot succeed in losing itself, as the ferry
boat, Alkali, was attaohed to it, and Ed.
Wilson was on board, preparing to bed,
and seeing the state of affairs, he tired
up with a bucket ot pitch and soon had
80 pounds of steam pressure, and alter
considerable difficulty, in great peril of
being swamped by the torn tic waves, he
managed to strike tbe Oregon sideband
with the assistance ot several of our oit
izens, seoured the boat and wharf.
The speoial eleotion held for the pur
pose of ascertaining the wishes of the
people regarding the question nt issuing
bonds to tne imiinint of $10,000 for tbe
purchase of water works and eleotrio
lights was deoided favorably.

Mr. McGonagill's band ot ewes begau

Many of our farmers hove sowu from
100 to 200 acres of spring grain, in addi
tion to their fall-sown orops.
One of the reasons why our people are
happy is that they are free from debt,
which alone speaks well for Gooseberry.
We don't bear any one complaining of
hard times.
This snotion, as well ns other parts of
Enstern Oregou is sadly in need of better
public roads. Too mauy farmers devote
nearly all of their time to planting large
crops, not thinking about the enormous
expense incurred in marketii g their
grain, whioh oould be muterially re
duced by a little work being done on the
roads at the light time and places. It
is well known that a team can draw from
one-fourth to one-third more over a good
road than an inferior one.
We should have better mail service, ns
it takes about 70 hours for mail sent
from Heppner to reach its destination at
this place, a distance of 20 miles. So, if
we would unite in sending a vigorous
kick to the postal department at Wash
ington, we might expect some better
treatment at the hunda of the department,
hut so long us we wait for some one else
to do the complaining, we can do with
out our mull until it has become stale.
