Editor Capitai- Journai. I
would H.iv in recard to Mr. Croisan
trying "long and hard" to wire me,
that because he could not call me
within a few hours time, that was
no excuse in any sense of the word
for taking the case In his own hands
or putting it in any one clses hands.
Tin. tnlecrranh office is open here
every day in the week aud part of
the night, and even tuougii me sucr
Iff could not have wired me on Sun
day, Monday would have done just
as well, or any other day within
two or three days time. Tho coro
ner has authority to set tho date of
the inquest. Ho must put nlmseii
under tlio disqualifying conditions
of tlio statute or else he is the coro
and no one else can assume to ap
point a coroner or act as coroner. I
have made this reply in the hope
that if I have not stated tho facts,
that wo may hear from those who
are better informed. This should
be understood, as the public are con
cerned In the matter as well as the
coroner. D. C. Bvland.

Sometii-e the Astoria road will be

Increased traffic this way, which
otherwise will go somewhere else.
Such a road would bo worth hun

Should it ko through Salem to the

THE FARMERS' CONGRESS.
It Will Meet in the Capital City on
Monday, Janttnry 14th.
The next pession of tho Oregon
Farmers' Congress, which was or
ganized in Salem during tho meet
ing of the state fair, will ho held in
Salem on Monday next. This as
sociation was organized to become a
branch or part of tho National
Farmers' Congress aud has per
fected its organization, which was
commenced last June, by electing
officers, adopting a constitution and
issuing an address to the farmers of
the state.
Tho officers are: President, M.
Wilkins of Lane county j secretary,
Joseph Gaston of Multnomah county.
The executive committee of five,
whose duties are to prepare ad
dresses, is os follews: John P. Bob
inson, Marion county; A. W.Lucas,
Polk county; J. W. Shute, Wash
ington county; W. B. Kirk, Linn
county, James Bruce,Benton county.
This congress was organized be
cause, after careful consideration, it
was tho sense of tho committee that
there is a sentiment among the
farmers desiring an open organiza
tion to consider and discuss ques
tions aflcctlng their intersts and
prosperity; and because a very large
number of the agricultural and pro
ducing classes feel and believe that
there are serious evils oppressing
their Interest, and that in order to
act understandingly and take such
action as will abolish theso grievan
ces, an open organization for dis
cussion and investigation is not
only desirable but necessary. The
committee was unanimous that no
organization should be attempted
which mlKbt be thought to be a
rival or opposing organization of
nn nrnncre. but ratucr one wmcu
should be supplementary to and
friendly with that organization, so
that tho two might co-operate aud
work in harmony to achieve one
end tho createst good for that
great classs of tollers on which all
other classes and interests depend.
The object and aim of the organi
zation is pretty clearly stated in
article I. of tho Constitution, which
is as follews:
This association shall be called
tlio Oregon Branch of the Farmers'
Congress, and its object, tho organi
zation of tho farmers of Oregon for
tho purpose of investigating and
discussing openly and irrespective
of party, those questions which af
fect the interests of agriculture and
labor, such as taxation, transporta
tion, trusts and tho currency; and
combining and concentrating the
power aud influence of tho agricul
tural classes by petition, ballot or
otherwise, so as to carry into the
laws of tho land, the wishes or de
cisions of this association on any
public question.
