R. A N. to transport th grain between Portland and Astoria by that road than by Its own through line. So far as th amount of agcrvgaw saving that can thus be effected Is con cerned, th Astorlaa contends that the better price which might have been ob talned at th mouth of th Columbia river on even one-third of the total crop of the Inland Empire, or the WO.Wt) tons which th Oregon lan estimates ss th amount of wheat shipped from ths Columbia river last ysar, would have so affected th price of th remainder of tb crop either as exported from Puget sound or consumed by the mill trust at home that the value of the entire crop in the producers' bands would hav netted them IXMO.tOv, or ILK M-not tt a ton mors than they actually received.

Discussing the merits of Astoria's claims to equal railway rates with the Cities of Puget sound from interior common points, among other things, the Astorian recently said: .. , The Astorisn's claim is that wheat delivered by the railroads at the mouth of the Columbia river, without extra freight charges to th producers, through the extension to the seaboard port of Astoria of the same common point freight rates charged to the more distant and inaccessible ports on Pugt sound, would net the producers at least producer nearlv two dollars for each 100 for national senator, mile haul It moves his wheat toward ! Oregon is proverbially slow to take tide water. If the Oregonlan would aid ' advantage of chang-d cond.tlon but the j r.cent and radical changes that have the Astorian In forcing the wheat rates, come upon U8 wlth lne adVeirt of our national development In the ParltV ocean demand that Oregon shall take a prominent stand upon the varioua questions that will arise in the nation's councils. Oregon must be In the front rank of Pacific coast states in all that pertains to the development of Pacific i and trans-Pacific civilisation anil com merce. The first and most important more than one dollar a ton better price ,tep looking to this end is the election for their wheat even in Portland, a' of n able- vigorous man to th senate. i If Oregon is to take and keep the place reduction of the O.

It said: From this statement it is easily de ducible that four-fifths of this money msy at once be saved to the producers and the other one-fifth secured for op eration and profit by the Astoria rail road. The amount of wheat and flour shipped from the Columbia river last yearthe best year and heaviest ship ments ever known was about 500,000 tens. The saving, then, of two and one half million dollars would be five dol lars a ton. Now one dollar a ton from Portland to Astoria would enable the Astoria railroad to make a good deal of money. It is as good a thing as a railroad would want. Thus, of the $2.600,000-the Increased value which 606,000 tons of wheat would have at As toriathere would be $2,000,000 left forj distribution among the producers. leas. aa SaMkars' ArtlcW. 4 7-S Commercial Ml.
