The Northwest Livestock and Wool Growers' Journal Is the name of an Illustrated monthly the first nuinltr of which has just been Issued at Pen dleton. No expense has been spared to make the new Journal first-class In everV respect. The Illustrations are particularly well executed. The lead ing article of the September Issue Is a valuable treatise on "The Trade of he Orient and Our Interest In It." The Journal reflects great credit upon Its enterprising publishers. Among our dispatches of yesterday was one concerning an official report to the state department, by an Ameri can vice-consul In Germany, advocat ing the establishment of American de partment stores In European cities, not onlv as a means of investment but. more particularly, as a means of In troducing to the foreign markets the thousand and one nicknacks and con venience which are made only In America, No one but . an American who has been abroad realizes tie su periority in number and general use fulness of American manufactured ar ticles, over those made elsewhere. The world only needs to become acquaint ed with our "Tankee notions," as well as with other standard articles of man ufacture, to create a demand for them which would drain all our resources to meet The great expositions are ex cellent In their educating Influence, but the opportunity will never be satis factorily met until the suggestion of our vice-consul is carried out In all the great centers of population abroad. ASTORIA MAY GET RAILROADS. Of special Interest to Astoria Is the paper of Donald Fletcher, ex-presldent of the Denver chamber of commerce and nov a Seattle business man. road before the Seattle chamber of com merce on Wednesday last. The great possibilities of Seattle as a center of the wonderful growth In commerce be tween Pacific coast points and Asia, now but beginning, are equally before Astoria, and the facts to which he re fers should reeclve careful Investigation bv our chamber of commerce. Mr. Fletcher said In part: "The ablest observers predict that In the near future the trade of the Pacific wi)l rival the trade of the Atlantic, . We find two detriments to the thlpping of the Pacific which are not so mani fest In that of the Atlantic: the expense of dry dockage for cleaning ship bot toms and that for dock renewals, owing to the ravages of teredo upon the tim ber piling!. Both of these will soon be eliminated at Seattle, and at this port enly along the shores of the Pacific, as soon as the lock and canal, being made by the federal government from the Sound at Seattle to Lakes Union and Washington, have been completed. The freah water of these lakes will kill and slough oft barnacles and seaweeds and the teredo dies In fresh water. The shores of these lakes, eastward three miles from and parallel with the salt 'water sound, are perfect for railway terminals. "Experience proves that the more tallroads a town has the better.

J mnny rallroaJs. In Denvr, twenty three years ago, when the Union Paclflc had that town by the throat and charged not what was fair but what the people could pay and live there, the croakers said to the advocates of the Burlington, -It will be one more road to carry and support at the expense at the people.' but the completion of that road and subsquently of the Mis souri Pacific, the Atchison and the Rock Island not only developed the state but made the prosperity so great that the receipts and profits of the Union Pacific were greater than In the days of the monopoly. "We find seven railroads In the west ern Interior, between here and Denver, that will come to the Pacific coast somewhere and that before long. Seat tle wants them all and should go after them and not sit back and wait their coming. "The Burlington Is In Central Mon tana. The Union Pacific and the Rock Island, via the Colorado Midland, are In Northern Utah. The Atchison and the Missouri Pacific are In Northern Colorado. The Northwestern Is in Cen tral Wyoming and the Milwaukee & St. Paul In South Dakota. "Astoria, Everett. Tacoma. even San Francisco, or perhaps places yet to be marked on the map may get tome or all of these roads, but I believ-; the time Is now and this is the place to begin the systematic effort to secure every one of them for this city. "In order to facilitate the coming of the roads let me suggest that we form a terminal company that shall be a strictly non-absorbable concern, that shall construct a belt line railroad and perhaps a railway to and a tunnel through the Cascades that may lie used by any road at a fair rental: and make it as easy as 'possible for those roads to obtain ample freight and passenger properties and facilities. This public suirited enterprise would pay directly, nd Indirectly the profits from it would be beyond computation." "I had a running sore on ny leg for seven years, writes Sirs. J as. Forest, cf Cheppewa Falls, Wis., "and spent hundreds cf dollars in trying to get It healed. Two boxes of Banner Salve entirely cured it." CHAS.
