Where does all the lumber turned out by the lower Columbia mills go? Mills of their capacity, running full-handed and running, day and night, have an enormous output, and the demand that quickly devours this vast product and still cries "More! more!"' Is worthy of a little study. The Clatsop mill Is making no efforts for a foreign market.. It has more than It pan do to attend to Its domestic or ders, which flood the office. That pile of lumber Is perhaps for a new house which a prospering farmer Is having built, there are some heavy timbers for a county bridge, here Is lumber for a store building, across the way are planks which will figure In a new school house. Boats, buildings, fenoos, side walks, furniture, cars, wharves, a-e here In the embryo. The big mills across the bay are eat- lug up logs with amarlng rapidity, Thir lumber is known in Mexico m Peru. In Chill. In Honolulu are houses which were once Columbia river trees. Away over in Asia gora uuo lumurr that Is being turned out In darkness and daylight by the saws Just over th waters of the bay, And so up and down the lower Col umbia Is ceaseless activity among the sawmills. Rain or shins, noon or mid night, big logs are being converted Into lumber and every mall brings more and larger orders. And the gallant forests still spread out over the hills and mountains. Th axes of the loggers for years have been cutting away and yet wh omparatlvely little impres sion. The lumber Industry" of the lower Col umbia, already large and even great, Is growing more and more Important. How Important one can scarcely realize. DRUMMER SPEAKS ' STUBBORN TRUTHS AN ANTIDOTE FOR RATE WARS Oar Merchants Have It Id Their . Owe Power (o Stop the Drain on Astoria. He was a bald-headed drummer, and hadn t been long In town. He was dis appointed and a trifle savage.' His As toria orders were not as large as be had expected, and being a bright business man, he wa not satisfied with simply realizing the fact. He wanted to know the reason. 'Well,' explained a merchant, "there Is ro uae buying more goods than we can sell." ' Very evident," responded the drum mer, "but why should there be any Lio.i i mey ureas u wvu aim live na well?" "1 answer 'yes' to all your Interroga tions," replied the mercrant, "but so many Astarl&n do not trade In Asto ria. Every train from Portland brings back Astoria people with their arms full of dry goods, groceries and hard ware. Why, it Is getting so that whn an Astorian wants more than two "rink, he rfoe. to Portland to spend bis rjoney, wny oo tney. ao uai; asaeu ok commercial traveler. "heaD fares, cut raws," asnwered the Astorian. shortly. ; "Why don't you stop It?" was the rfxt quggjin, The merchant looked at the drummer with a contemptuous pity for the lat ter s simplicity. There was a sharpness In his voice when he leplled. for he did not like the cross-examination. Btop it? Stop Old Nick! We don't run the reonle. Preach town loyalty to mem tnrough the newspapers, talk it on the frtnr, nMier conflicting interest' ana agree to give all our business and all other we could control to the company that would raise and maintain passen ger rates at their normal figure. These companies do not live on wind. They do not control the Astoria carrying bust ness. 'Tou can. If you manage It right ly and work together. Mew com plaining of yours doesn't affect the boat or railroad men. Tour loss of business does not bother them, but you strike at ,thlr business and It Is a different mat ter. Tou have to go af fr them rough hod. Tou know the old school-reader rhvmft. f" 'Tender-hearted pluck a nettle And it stings you for your pains.

Tou have the whip hand and can force them to protect you, yet you lo nothing but watch the dollars get away from you. Do you think you deserve any more business than you get?" The drummer went to pack his grip, and the merchant still Is thinking. THE LOUVRE. Strangers visiting in the. city will find the Louvre an attraotivf rtsort wherein to spend the evening.
