Cassell, Eso. , Aftoria, Ore. Dkab Sir: I was in your city the other day, hut could not find you, as no one seemed to know where you were, stating you had no otlice. .now, 1 wish to sell my mill or form a joint stock com pany and move it to Astoria, Albany, or some other good point, aa I find this is not the place for such an extensive plant, and the timber is too small and poor. I have written Mr. A. B. Hammond, who has all along urged me to go to Astoria, and just received a very encouraging let ter from him, but unfortunately he is down sick with la grippe and goes east at once, not returning until April. Now, what do you think? Can we form a joint stock company of say $50, CCO. and take it to Astoria? I will sell the property to the company for $25,000, $10,000 cash and balance in slock. The plant ia a great bargain, aa it cost the old old company about three times that for the machinery alone. I don't know it you are acquainted with the property or not, but if such a company can be lormed, let them send you or some other good mau over to see the property, as there ia no better mill on tne coast than this one for its Site, and it is no small mill either; can saw 80 to 100 thousand feet per day, cut tim bers 100 feet long ; seven boilers, five en gines, large dry ki'na and planing mill with four large planes and molding ma chine, and a logging outfit of 200 tons of railway iron that will lay nearly three miles of track, a first-class locomotive, and 20 loggingcars The entire property cost aa it stands $lij,000. So vou tee we have ouite a plant, nd a credit to any seaport town. T. II. DeCw. Washington KcincmbcrcJ. Washington wis honored in a fit man ner by the Y. W. C. A. at the col'ege last night.
