What Portage
Rpad Means
Views of Railroad Man On Inter
esting Transportation Prob
lem Affecting Astoria.
The ralt portage railway project,
about which so much la printed In the
various Oregon papers at present, la
n-t well understood In Ita probable
efforts by all. A gentleman who la well
UP In northwest transportation affairs,
and especially thorn relating to the In
terests of Astoria, ha this to say of
the pn: : .
"The efforts of the corporate InUntwU
of Orcgun to defeat the portage rail
way appropriation made at the last aes
slon of the legislature, through the me
dium of the referendum, are watched
with much Interest in thla city. W. J.
Cowglli, formerly of Astoria, la the
principal agitator In the schema to de
feat the legislative act. The furor that
bis campaign has caused but had the
effect of placing him before the public
In anything but an enviable light, and
It develops that Mr. Cowglli does not
rut much lie In Baker City, where ha
now resides, as a result.
The portage road appropriation Is
the most Important legislative fund
thut has ever been set aside, U will
create .opposition for the present grain
rirrylng lines down the Columbia river,
affording water competition with them.
The present rate are so high that the
portige road will effect by force a very
material reduction and ft Is thla fart
which haa aroused the railroads to ac
tion.. If the road is built the producers
of a vast territory will be released
from their present bonduge. ' - .
"Construction of this road promises gl
so to have a decided effect on Astoria
harbor. If the road is built, rate will
come down with a gratifying thud.
Now, lower railroad rate on grain
mean that the sound roads will be un
able to compete with the Columbia riv
er road the O. It. tc N. branch of the
Harriman system. Ergo, the sound
roads must find an outlet at the Colum
bia river's mouth. In anticipation ot
the construction of the portage road,
the Northern Pacific, with characteris
tic enterprise, has prepared for the ex
tension of Ita line down the north bank
ot the Columbia, to the river's mouth,
where ample harbor facilities are avail
able. When the Northern cornea to the
Columbia's mouth, the Harriman line
must do likewise. To use good, plain
English, whenever the Northern cornea
down the north fork of the Columbia
or the south bank, either, for that matter-the
Harriman system will of neces
sity eonw to Astoria.
it wll be seen that the portage road
will have a far-reaching effect on trans
portatlon conditions in the northwest.
At pres-snt the three northwestern
rallroal are enjoying the blessings of
high rate but the combination could
not be maintained with" water competi
tion from the dallea of the Columbia
river to the sea. This competition
would be compelled to meet the reduc
tion. Thla reduction would make It Im
possible for the sound roads to haul
grain at anything but a dead lose over
their heavy grades Into Seattle and Ta
coma, and they would be compelled to
seek a Columbia outlet.
"Any Astorlan who would attach his
signature to Co gill's petition would b
a traitor of the first water. The port
age road appropriation was made lor
the benefit of the producers, who have
long submitted to extortion, and ita de
teat would be a public calamity.
"It Is interesting in thla connection
to note that the toll exacted for carry
ing griln to Portland, Seattle and Ta
coma from the wheat fields exceeds
the charge on grain from Chicago to
Liverpool, For this reason 'the three
north wistern roads, while owned by
hostile Interest, are content with the
prfsent divisional arrangement."
IT IS BASEBALL TODAY.
At 2:30 p. m. today the Astoria base
ball team ahd the Cathlamet Suna will
cross bat On the local Held. The As
toria team ta .composed, of the. best
payers Intheclty and the boy expect
to win from the visitors by a close
marln. The Suna are equally san
guine' of victory, so a stirring contest
Is in store for those who attend. The
loBt game played by the two teams
resulted In a score of 17 to T In favor
of the Cathlamet men, ao they can
hardly be blamed for being confident
that they will win today. However,
there will be a eturprlse in store for
them In the makeup they wll be up

WILL SEE ROOSEVELT.
Agreflt many Astorlane are making
preparations to be In Portland on the
occasion of the visit of President Roose

opportunity of seeing & real president,

thla opportunity. . The patriotic desire
to be In the presence of the ruler of the
republic prevades the atmosphere here,
and Astoria will be well represented at
Portland when the presidential party
arrives. Astorlans sincerely regret the
failure of Ihe Oregon congressional dele
gatlon to have their city included In the
itinerary of the president, but they will
make the beat of matters and go to
Portland to Join in Oregon' big wel
come. ' - .

Result of Hatcheries' Operations
Will Be Shown In This
- YeaVsWork.
The benefits of artificial prpagatlon
wll be detrmlned during the present
itching season In a more satisfactory
manner than ever before. Results in
past years have been gratifying, but
thlr year's supply of flsh ought. In the
natural order of things, be far In ex
cess of that of 1902. In view of the
lesson that will be taught by this year's
supply, the outcome of the season's
work 1 awilted with Interest.
The first big hatchery run occurred
In July, 1001. Then, It will be remem
bered, salmon swarmed the river. Clll
netters returned to the canneries with
boatload of fine fish, while the seines
and trap took countless ton. That
the fish were propagated at the state
hat'.-herles waa positively demonstrated
ed by the number of marked fish taken.
Last year's supply -was also very good,
although there was not the congestion
that occurred In 1301. : f
The hatcheries have turned out more
small fish with each succeeding season,
and' the supply this year ought to be
greater than that of lartt year. That
the run will materialize is firmly be
lieved by those who have followed the
progreet made in artificial propaga
tion. The hatchery fish are not ex
pected to make their appeerance In
the river for ?ome time to come, but
when they appear flenermen will reap
a harvest. . r ... ,
The supply of salmon la now very
short. The season opened up well
enough, but after the first two week
there came a slump that has lasted
ever since. Receipts at all the pack
ing housjs are very light, and "no fish"
Is the common reply to inquiries re
garding the extent of the supply. The
fluh which are being caught, however,
are of fine quality, and all the large
ones are pickled for shipment abroad.
Some of the cold-storages are picking
underslxed fish to suppy the less faa
tldou markets. None of the canneries
are operated except for a short time
dally, the employes being engaged al
most wholly In the manufacture of
can, preparatory to the anticipated
rush latsr on.
The glllnetters are taking practically
all of the fish now being caught, re
ceipts from other sources being Incon
sequential. The prevailing price for
salmon weighing 15 pounds and . over
is I cents, while for smaller fish t cent
Is paid. .
The Increased facilities for handling
flsh this season would tend to make
the supply appear smaller than usual,
and final figures will be necessary to
give the general public a line on the
actual extent of the run of solman.
Should heavy runs occur during the
season, the pack of canneries and cold
storages will be much heavier than
during 1902. as greater quantities of
fish con be handled.
Fiahermen and packer ailke are
hopeful for the success of the season's
work, despite the unsatisfactory sup
ply at the present time.
CHARGES NOT SUSTAINED.
Abraham Branlund. against "whom
two charges have been pending In the
court of the Justice of the peace, was
finally discharged from custody yester
day by Justice Goodman, both charges
belnj dismissed. The first charge,
that of obtaining goods under false
pretenses, could not be. sustained, as
It devjloped that he had purchased
the iroods from Mr. Sculley on credit,
and, while hi subsequent action in the
evldene troughtqulb. hafFunuETAEt
matter could hardly be considered as
strictly square dealing, there was no
evidence brought forward to prove
that anything Illegal had been done.
The charge of attempting to obtain
money under false pretenses likewise
fell fiat. Branlund hod not attempted
to pass a check either for cash of goods.
F. D. Wlnton represented the defense.
T CITY TEACHERS. ' '
The City Teachers' association met In
regular seslon yesterday afternoon In
the Shlvely school building. Professor
McCormac led in the discussion of the
"Conquest," Mrs. Emery Dye s famous
book. The subject waa handled In s
manner to give every teacher an oppor
tunity to express original views on
separate features." Professor McCor
mao had assigned many different
characters. and epochs covered by the
work, and as time was given to study
up the "part," the session was decidedly
an interesting one.
