Doubtless He cure N rjr Property Hire ir Mutter I ( - Once Taken Up. Astoria hat th opportunity to secure lh. location here of a bif mill which theWeyhauser company purpose build Ing on th. lower Columbia river. If iht matter la vigorously taken up at once, there la little question that th enterprise can be aecured for Astoria. Recently representative of the Wey hnuser company vlslt'd Weslport.'laU anp county, for 'he purpoee of looking over the locations there for a saw mill. An Aswrlat reporter wae told yester day by a local attorney that th Wey bsusers have determined to locate en the ower river .where they have eaten elve timbering Interest. , t "I am of the opinion that the Wey hausers are anxious to come to the lower river, and I am satisfied that they can be located In this dty If the effort la made. If they are willing to locate at Westport, I have an Idea that they would be willing to come atlll near cr the mouth of the river, where trans portation facilities are better, and where they would be nearer their Um ber h'Udlnie." The Wtyhauaer syndicat la one of the lnrt lumber manufacturing con- wins In existence. Its very first pur chase of timber lands In the elate of Washington Involved a consideration of S4.000.000, the land In question hav Irfg been purchased from the Northern Paclhc. The enterprises Inaugurated by the eyndicate tr among the most extensive on the coast, and the loca tion of Weyhauser mill here would be a boon to the community. The Wcyhauscr are heavily Interest ed In tlmberlands on Deep and Grays river, The extent of their holding! on the north ahore streame can not be accurately Mated at this time, but It Is understood that the proposed- mill in this vicinity will be supplied from the company's own holdings. It was sug gested that the Tongue Point site la Juat what the syndicate dealrea. Its timber Is directly acmes the river from IheTongu and upstra n towage would be avoided if the mill were to be located heVt. From what could be learned yester day", the Weyhausers are looking for a kite, and If one hi ofrwed here the mill ceuld doubtless be aecured. The mat ter Is one for me commercial ooaiv to consider. It Is doubtful if the Commercial Club football team will play with the Che mnwa team Christmas aa has been tUKgettcd. The teams have communi cated 'on the subject, but It appears that the demands of the Indians can hardly be met. flestdes their expenses they want 1200, As the Chemawa team has not played any star games this season,1 It Is not clear that th men will prove much ot a drawing card, so the local men are rather Indifferent as to whether the contest comes oft or not. However, If the Chemawas consent to meet the Commercials on condition that their expenses are paid and an equal division ot the gats receipts, the game will be arranged. House for rent.
