Application has been made to H. W.

board of the Y. M. C A for per
mission to build an association bulld
Ing'at Astoria, Thure la hardly any
doubt but that the permission will be
granted, and In event that It Is, the
building will be put up this year. The
policy of the Y. M. C. A. Is to allow-
only those towns rich enough to have
the modern appliances and otherwise
qualified to support an Institution, en

Ing, however, was not made hereto
fore, but those who are backing up the
present request expect to win out. For
morly a Y. M. C. A. was had for tha
asking, no especial qualification being
necessary, but that waa before the In
stitution hnd branched out to Us pres
ent strength and Importance. Along
with Astoria's request ara similar ones
from Eugene, Pendleton and Bnker City
all of which will probably be granted.

cent apeclal session of the legislature
a bill was Introduced providing for the
election of road supervisors, but it
failed to' become law. Notwithstand
ing the increase In the assessed Valu
ation of Clatsop county property this
year.there seems little chance for any
material reduction lrt the total levy.
The state tai will be greater than last
year, the city tax larger and the achool
tax may be heavier. Tha only possible
chance for a reduction Is In the levy
for general expenses. The session will
be a busy one.
According to the Sessids Ssntinol,
SQaslde has a very bright future. The
Sentinel says: "The adoption of i

age to the town. . Under It, the coun

water supply as a matter of health. It
la Impossible to provide a good aewer
aystem without water for flushing pur
poses and this can only be done by
adequate water supply. It needs water
for fire protection, and the building
of a water system will provide lhe
best fire protection. Hydrants can be
placed at the corner of every block in
me ousiness and residence portion of
the town, and the pressure will be suf-
iicieni to extinguish any fire. The
cost of building the system will not
exceed $10,000. A prominent con -
irarior nns tne plans .prepared and
will submit them to the council." The
amount spent during 190$ for r
buildings was $45,970.
