FARMERS TRUST.

The Tillamook Herald is authority
for the statement that the farmers in
Kansas are going to organize a trust,
It is not stated whether 1t is to per-
petuate farming, or keep the cranks
out Of the asylum. The Herald says:
The Kansas man who is trying to
organize a trust among the farmers
is likely to be faded to a fraezle by a
New Jersey man. He proposes to herd
the whole job lot into one grand ag-
gregation. His scheme Is TO form a
trust Of farmers for the importation
of farm labor from abroad, the en-
ployment Of worthless men from the
great cities, the education Of farmers
SONS to such a degree that they would
be willing to remain on the farms, and
the education of farmers daughters
for rural wives instead of for depart
ment store clerks. In syndicate or
trust farming he would have tn,
farmers Of every community unite
along the trust idea, some OF them to
stay at home and work, others to goI
to the markets to sell and all to buy
on the cooperative plan. We do not
know his working plans, but no mat.
ter what they have there will be a
whole lot Of joiners.

Mr.. whipple and Mr.. Clinton were
present and were willing for the coun.
citl to pass any ordinance granting
them a franchise with reasonable re-
strictions. They conveyed the i'm
preston that there were people behind
the enterprise that would not only
construct the proposed lines but would
bring capital to Astoria.
There is no question that an inn
provement In the present telephone
service will meet with the hearty ap-
prevail OF nine-tenths Of the people.
The present company show no inclina-
ton to better their service. which is
considered one of the poorest in the
state, but In this respect, II Is similar
to the Bell telephone service In every
city where 1t is used. 1t Is claimed
that the fault lies principally in the
Astoria Office.
Relative to the gas and electric light
franchise there seems to be differ,
ence of opinion as to its proving
paying investment. II Is contended by
the promoters that the price Of lights
and gas is altogether too high ana
that they propose to supply a better
service for less money. For this rea'
son and upon these statements, ths
granting of the franchise is approved
by a large number.
The opinion obtains among the
members OF the common council that
no franchise should be granted ex-
cept under proper restrictions and that
ii is easier to place the restrictions in
the ordinance granting the franchise
than TO attempt to regulate 1t after a
franchise has been granted. This is
along the lines suggested by the AS
torian. There Is no one but wants to

There Is no doubt but the granting |
Of the franchise, if its provisions are |
