An article published In the Butte Intermouniain from the Dawson Coun ty Review applies with more force to Clatsop county and the changing ot the name will make It recognisable b all the old settlers, s If you are old with the Are of youth dying out of your life and the buoy ancv leaving your limbs. If you ait looking; at the gray clouds overhead and longtvg for a land where youi faded life may pass away In peaes com to Clatsop coun.y. itere inr sky Is blue as the sky of Italy, the all is full of fragrance and the land echoes with the voices of thousands who work at the wornout and barren dtserta ol the east. It you would like to live where the soil rewards the toller, where cro.wi wave and sparkle with the dew in morning sunshine; where no banners of poverty wave and the gaunt spectre of starvation crosses into ano.her state, come to Clutsoj county. There ws3 never such a country for the best brand of husbands; they run loose on tha streets and you meet them everywhere. If you are a young woman, full of golden visions, and would like to pick a husband on every creek and hillside, come to Clatsop county. The country is filling up fast ;They are coming afoot and on horse back; by every boat and train. Before many years every quarter section within view ef Saddle mountain win have a hous; upon it and the hill: that once knew the Sklpanon cow and untamed broncho will echo the heav; tread of the book agent and the fruit tree man, as cultivation sw-'eps on ward. Tills Is a country wh?re thi sun seldom used to shine through tht whole winter, but' the earth nevet dried up like a brick in a furnace. Now the rain takes 'a rest an hour or two and gives the sun a chance; the hot, withering winds have gon? to Call fornla: the face of the earth seems to glow with beauty and health, and the people who live In this marvelous coun try go around congratulating each other and trying to analyze their good ness. Even the dogs are overeomt with Joy. Astoria is growing; our suburban towns are growing; the railroad changes its time card every we-k to accommodate new cities that were not on the last one issued. There hm't a man Idb who wants work. Farmeri do not pump water for their stock, but turn them loose on the green carpete. hills, where everlasting streams flow like ribbonj of silver, and they do the' plowing sitting on a spring seat with a box of cigars and a Jug by their side. In the east they cany their water from the nearjst creek, sometimes miles away, and walk behind a plow until they have have no distinct Idea wheth er they are shoving the machine or the hordes pulling It. It Is the country for the poor man, for the rich man and no part of this grand county affords bet ter opportunities for. the hustling young or old man than does Clatsop county, where the largest river In the world flows past one of the most pic turesque ci.ies in the state. The man who can't thrive, prosper and grow rich In this favored stxrt would starve In a bak'ry. When the tide is out, breakfast is set. Is an old saying. If you can't work you can hunt and fish and make a living. There are no cyclones to blow your houses. bams or farms Into kingdom come. There are no floods to wash away your homes and drown your lamllls. If you are dyspeptic or your stomach Is ruined by too much eastern hard cider, and you can't eat. you can live on the octan bieezes and the cllmat Clat sop county has a population of 18,000 and only one undertaker and he has been compelled to go to farming to make a living. There are a number of physicians, but they are- wealthy and are simply living here for their health. There are 20 lawyers here, but they only take your estate and give, your heirs a receipted bill In full for services rendered. It is reported that a Garden of Eden will be re-establish td, and there Is no doubt It will be located In Clatsop county, being the nearest fac-simille In the United States.
