IHg IMPLEMENT TRUST.

"knowlng that the farmers geheraiiy
are opponents of the trusts and COM
hines that are intended to control the
price on what they either buy or sell, we
deem II advisable" says the Prairie
Farmer, ssto warn them OF one OF the
greatest combines to their detriment.
Ne refer to the national association OF
retail implement dealers. The sole pur-
uose of this association Is to place the
farmer further away from the manu-.
faeturers, and Increase the proiit OF Ill
retail dealers, thereby Increasing the
cost Of all machinery and making the
existence Of the retailer doubly sure. Inc
Ingenuity Of invention has supplied the
farms with all the labor-saving mschtn.
ery now In use, hence the farmer should
be In easy touch with the manufactures.
One of the lronclad rules OF the imple-
meut dealers association Ia 10 buy no
goods Of manufacturer who retails any
goods direct TO the farmer. There is out
one solution to this matter. A closer
relation must be formed between the
farmer and the manufacturer. Inc
various farm journals can bring about
thIs relation. Various implement Jour
nails have sprung into existence 10 the
mast few years. A careful reading OF
them will convince that they are In the
interests Of the retailers OF the country,
and have broadened the one field LETT Tor
the farm Journal on the implement ques-
lion. The Issues are clearly drawn.
As advertising mediums the farm jour
nals must become the selling agents Tor
the manufacturers In place Of the nation
al association Of implement dealers.
but little encouragement Is needed NJ
this time to influence majority OF manu-
fzcturers Of farm tools TO bring about q
system of selling direct to the farmer on
\ cash basis, which means less price, as
no provisions will have TO be made Tor
Losses incurred through the retailers.
m member Of the association OF im-
plement dealers refusca to handle q
manufacturers goods because he sells
direct to the farmer, the farmer should
refuse TO deal with any member OF the
assoclstiou, and send direct to the manu-
fscturer for any tools desired. There J:
no rood reason why . farmer should
not buy his harvester, plow, wagon OF
carriage from the manufacturer. Con-
certsd action on this line Will result 10
rood 10 the farmer, the farm journals
and the manufacturer, and In one years
time wipe out Of existence one OF the
srestest combines ever formed 70 the
detrIment Of the farming and manufao
turIpe interests Of the country. "A
word 10 the wiss' should be sufficient

JURORS EXAMINED AND SWORN.

The examination of jurors was then be-
gun. Judge Powers wanted to know if
Joe Walden had paid his dog tax. The
juror replied that he had paid it once this
year, and the attorney tried to get rid of
him by urging that this was not in ac-
cordance with the law as laid down by
| Galleazi. The objection was overruled.
Major Silva admitted that he had laid
himself liable, in some years gone by, to
an action for breach of promise, and all
the other jurors pleaded guilty to thss
same impeachment. The wiley Goodwin
insisted that they were just the men,
and the jury was accepted, after
being required to take an oath, so help
them Grover, that they Fesided in the
state OF matrimony since the last Demo-
cratic ratification; that they would sup
port themselves, their motherin laws
and the constitution, and especially an
act of Congress entitled an act to amend
an act to amend an act entitled an act to
amend section 173571A of the city ordi
nance in reference to horse thieves and
other criminals defined and forbidden,
and they would not aid or aver any per-
son to commit such crimes as claim
jumping, tinhorn gambling, poverty,
begging, voting the Liberal ticket; that
if they had committed such crimes il
was IN self-defense; that they did not as
sociate with horse thieves, Tuscaroras,
dog catchers or other city officials, and,
further, to say that they would never
go on junketing trip without providing
the necessary.
The complaint and answer were then
read.

The plaintiff, in her complaint, set up
that her affections were worth about
$3.50, 600; that the defendant desired to
procure the aforesaid affections and ac-
copied the proposal made by her during
leap year, when it was perfectly proper
for her to so propose, aud agreed to marry
her whenever requested SO to do; that on
May 80, July 4, July %, Thanksgiving
day, Christmas, New Years and other
holidays, plaintiff requested the defend
ant to marry her, when he claimed, to
her surprise, that he had fallen in love
with the snake charmer, also the big
footed girl and the skeleton man at Won
derland, and thereby refused to marry
plaintiff; that all Of this was without fault
on her part, and that the defendant we'll
knew, and with malice aforethought, and
through contributory negligence upon his
part, became and was engaged to marry
the plaintiff, which he declined to do, "to
the damage of the plaintiff in the sum of

prayed judgment in the sum of $3.50, 900 in
