ever important and even momentous
they might appear; to surrender if
need be all patty ties and affiliations,
and unite in one supreme effort to
free themselves and their children
from the domination of the money
power-a power more destructive
than any which has ever fastened
upon civilized men of any race or
any age, and invoked the gracious
favor of divine providence upon the
consummation of their desires and
efforts.
1 was appointed chairman of the
state central committe of this union
party and have been carefully watch
ing the trend of events. The time
is ripe for action. Already the
work is beginning; one county
sends a petition asking that COM
mittee be appointed consisting of
three populists, two democrats and
one silver republican to take steps
to call union primaries for the cam
paign OF 1895. This viii be done.
Another county has held two joint
conferences to consider the matter.
Another asks for a committee of
six, two of each. Several others
are discussing the question and
getting ready for action. This
county won decided victory in
1896, by the union of forces at the
primaries, and will continue solid
for union work.
The earnest cooperation of the
people in this work is of Importance
now! Let union picnics and union
meetings be held, resolutions passed
and sent to the committee. The
voice of the people is the law of the
committee. Now is the time to
work and not sleep while the enemy
sows tares.
1t is proposed to call a conference,
composed Of three men from each
county, carefully selected from the
three elements of the reform forces,
pledged to union, to meet at Al
bany on the end day of June, 1897,
to devise a plan for systematic party
organization, to adopt a proper
statement of principles, and Ito
form a more perfect union" No
nominations or discussions of cam
didates whatever will be at this
conference. The committee will be
glad to receive letters from all
parties interested, and especially
resolutions and suggestions from
union meetings. as to principles and
policies.
Newspapers everywhere are re-
spectfully requested to give this
call prominence. Communications
relating to local conditions, and
local work are solicited. Address,

UNITY AND ACTION.
A Call Issued by the Union State
Central Committee.

| The query as to how union OF
reform forces can be formed, and
who will make propositions and
arrange the conditions looking to
this end is the question of the hour.
The state committee of the union
party has received many letters
from men in touch with the plain
people in nearly every section of the
state and the universal desire is for
a union of forces pledged to reform.
1 have recently held personal inter-
views with many men of kindred
opinions on this question and have
travelled from the Columbia to
southern Oregon, holding counsel
individually and collectively, and
they all want union of forces on
some honorable grounds. A con-
ference OF men representing the
principal counties of Western Ore
gon was held at Albany the 9th
inst, consisting of populists, demo-
Gratis and independent free silver
republicans. About twenty promi-
nent men were present, including
two democratic and two populist
state central committeeman and all
were unanimous for union OF
forces.
The question of platform will be
easy, for the condition of the people
is such, and the desire for union SO
strong, that they are in a similar
mind to that of President Lincoln
at the beginning of the war when
he told the commissioners who
were trying to arrange terms Of
peace between the north and south,
eff you will write union and peace
at the top of the proposition you
can write any terms below" 1t is
plain that populists will not make
unreasonable demands, that demo
Gratis will make all reasonable con-
cessions and silver republicans will
throw down everything to accomp-
lish a union of forces.
There is a firm determination
which eliminates in an emphatic
declaration, to avoid personal and
factional politics. AS to the United
States senator, the reform people
will have no choice between a man
who will use his great influence to
turn the state into the hands of
Mark Hanna and bind it to his
political policies, or the man who
will vote to retire the greenbacks
and issue $4,000 900 in bonds.
They will have neither.
There is strong desire on the
part of all honest reformers, to go
to the people with all propositions
on which practicable action may be
had. The primary system of nomi-
mating officers is wanted, and all
who want endorsement should make
their appeal direct to the people.
In all conferences held, the desire
for union of forces in primary con-
vention is universal, and though I
feel justified in asking the co-opera-
ton of the populist and democratic
state and county committees, 1 am
not authorized to recognize any
proposition that does not tend tc
bring about a direct union of the
people at the primaries.
The union state convention held
here last July was represented il
person by about 100 delegates from
the counties of Jackson, Josephine
70 Marion, Clackamas, Polk, Yamhill
Washington, Multnomah and Ba
; ker. 1t was composed of able ane
thinking men of all parties. III,

I'm the face Of hard times and de-
pressed conditions the work Of the

and the record Of the past year not
only shows large gains in membership,
but gains have been made in all the
departments Of its work. In none, how

than in its educational work. Where
ever faithful, persistent labor has been
performed by state and subordinate
grange lecturers prosperity has dawned

ton in trying to do good, to make bet
ter society and better government, and
as the prospects for material prosperity
in his country are Frightening on every
hand, not only the lecturers and other

grand fraternal organization should
unite their efforts and with one accord
strive during the coming year to place
the banner of the grange i'm a higher
position on the battlements Of truth, of
justice and of right, than it has ever
occupied in the years that are passed"

IS IT Durable ?
A Question often Asked by Those AFFLICTED
with Piles,

with Piles.
Is strained joint durable Is local in
nammation durable ? OF course, if properly
treated. So is piles.
People often become afflicted with piles
and ask some old "chronic' who has always
persisted in the wrong treatment and naturally
he discourages them by telling them that their
case is hopeless.
They in turn discourage others, and thus a
disease that can in every case be cured by
careful and skillful handling is allowed to sap
the energy Of thousands who might free them
selves Of the trouble in a few days.
Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most ag
gravated case ct h%emonhoids in an astonish-
iugly short time. It relieves the -congested
parts, reduces the tumors instantly no matter
how large, allays the inflammation and stops
the aching or itching al once.
Thousands who had resortad to expensive
surgical treatment have been cured by the
Pyramid Pile Cure-in a number of instances
persons who had spent months in a hospital
under a pile specialist.
1t is remedy that nom need fear to apply
even to the most aggravated, swollen and in
famed hemorrhoidal tumors.
If you are afflicted with this stubborn dis
ease you can master it and master it quickly.
This remedy is no longer a experiment,
but a medical certainty. Il is manufactured by
the Pyramid Drug Co., Of Albion, Mich.
Druggists sell it at 90 cents per box. 1t is
becoming the most popular pile cure this
country has ever known and druggists every
where are ordering it for their customers.
