THE RAILUOAD CUTS.
The A. A C. R. Meet the Tweirty-flve-CVnt
Hate to Porthuid.
The A. 4 C. R. calmly marka Ita fare
for paaaengera between Aatorta and
Portland down to 2S ceula thla morn
ing, following the move of the 0. R.
A N.
!t la difficult to find a aatlafactory
reaann for the gtubborn contest now
on. The O. R. A N. Company atarted
the war and la the aargreaaor In the
present cut So far. tt haa been.tne
principal loner, for the railroad haa
reaped moat of the advantage of the In
creaaed travel caused by low ratea
It haa been auggvted that the Union
Pacific, through th O. R. A N.. la
trying to got control of the A. A C. R.,
and to further Ita emda la trying to
make the prewent owners of Uve road
loae money on the property, putting
them In a fitting frame of mind to dia
poae of the line.
If aurh ahould be the motive behind
the present aeemlngly unreasonable
conteat. tha question arises, Why does
the Union raelflo want the A. A C. R.T
There could be two anawera to thla.
The Union Pacific wonta to come to the
mouth of the Columbia river, or wants
to tie up the Artorla line from interfer
ing with arrangement not favorable to
Oregon porta.
No one deema the present war an
aimless one,, but perhaps the real ob
tect of the move has not ixn as yet
been guessed by outsiders. It Is pos
sible that the outcome will more than
repay Astoria for Ita losses caused by
the low rates to Portland.
EFFECT OF THE RATE WAR.
Astoria Budget.
It Is estimated that through the rate
war among the local transportation
lines Astoria la losing fully J1.000 per
day, or In other words, that amount of
money Is being carried out of town each
day that under other conditions would
remain at home and be spent with our
own merchants. That this war la work
ing a groat Injury to Astoria is certain
and the sooner tt ends the better it will
be for the whole 'town. It Is thought
that the ridiculously low rate made
by the O. R. A N. Company yesterday
mny result In bringing the companies
to an agreement, although It Is Inti
mated In certain circles that the losses'
of the transportation companies is be
ing refunded by the merchants of Port
land as an Inducement to continue the
fight In the Interest of that' city.
A MEMORIAL FOR
EDWARD YOUNG
Ao Astoria Soldier lioy Who Died in
The Pbillijiprnes. 1
A TRIBUTE FROM OLK CITY
A Fund to be Started Here For a
Llbrar) lo he' Presented to the
Agricultural lo!Irge.
A service In memory of th Oregon
volunteers who gave their Uvea to their'
country was hold In Portland last Bun-j
d.iy. Thla haa reminded many Aatorl-'
am that one of the flrat of the Amer-j
lean aoldlera to find a grave In the
I'hill;tlnca waa an Astoria boy, Ed
ward C. Young and that Aatorla baa
aa yet dona nothing to express her re-
giird for the memory of her youthful
warrbr who mut death In those dla-'
tant lalanda. J
Young uaa only a boy, but he was a
manly boy upright. Intelligent and
courageous, with a cheery, lovable dla-'
position that endeared blm to all hla aa-'
aorlates. He was a credtt to Clatsop
ounty aa a civilian and aa a aoldler.
Asioria'a Inaction haa cot been due to
indifference, but to the aboence of op-'
portunlty. The city haa been await
ing a practicable suggnmlon and the'
beginning of a definite movement
The Aatorlan offers lis columns In the!
Interest of a suitable memorial, and
h.m made some Inquiry as to the moatj
suggestive and bun-.-nclal rorm such a
ni"'norUI ahould take.
It was auggested by a prominent Aa
torlan that, when he ei.limed, Edward
Young waa a atuderrt at the State AgH-J
cultural college, and that of the twenty (
students who dropped their "studies at'
that Institution and responded to the
president's call for volunteers, he was'
th only one to die. The moat appro
priate tribute to his meniory would not!
be a atone or tablet, but something I
that would sugicst his student life aa
well as hla aoldler life, and that would
be a benefit to other young people.
It is proposed to begin at Astoria the
raising f a fund to purchase a fine ll
brar)' for the college, to be known as
the Edward C. Young library. Th Ag-
rlcultural college Is a magnificent Instl-j
tutlon. grandly endowed by the national,
government and supplied with splendid
bulldlnga by th state. Every year thr.e
or four hundred young men and women
go there to fit themselves for Industrial
occupations. The college, however, has
but a small library, and the funds from,
the general government cannot be ap
plied to the purchase of books. It Is;
an Institution that Is doing a grand j
work, and one In which every county
la Interested.
Thf very unselfishness of the project'
Is Its best feature. Tha memory of Ed
ward Young will not be perpetuated in
some vain, dead ornament for our city,
but in a uaeful, living memorial, for
books live and a good library never
loses Its' usefulness. It Is expected that
other cities will take this Matter up.
Tomorrow the Astorlan will open a
subscription Hat, and will receive con
trtbutlnna. which will be turned over
to a commute to be selected today.
The Aatorlan opens this Hat confident
that In the generous and patriotic
movement the people of Astoria will
l"nd their cordial support.
