Editor Morning Astorlan:
I notice that May SO has been fixed
for ue opening of the Celilo portage
and that delega.tlonA from Portland
and Lewtston will attend the "drlv
Ing of the last spike." I have not.
though, seen any account of Astoria's
intention to honor that epoch-marking
event. Why does not the chamber ot
commerce get busy? Why, Indeed?
That Celilo portage potentially lib
erates Astoria and the Columbia bnsln
wheat growers from the thralldom. ot
the railway, wheat pool combination
that has long levied tribute by pre
venting a common point rate on wheat
to Astoria. It now only n?eds harmon
ious action between Astoria and the
wheat growers to secure results. As
torla wheat buyers and ship charterers.
a line ot river barges and railway ra
tion elevators east of the Caicade
will do the business as should be plain
to all observers.
fcut, some may say, If wheat will
bring several cents more (through
cheaper ocean charters) at Astoria, by
barge delivery, why will not the wheat
gravitate there on the law of self-
interest in its owners? Why? Simply
because a graft Interest of the Wilcox
wheat pool (the sole buyer of Colum
bia wheat) Induces that concern td de
liver the wheal at Portland. That
wheat pool, composed of all the regu
lar wheat buyers of the basin, organ
ized Into six great corporations, owns
all the elevators and can dictate to
the wheat growers arbitrary prices so
long as present common point condi
tions exist What it loses as owner
of the wheat It more than makes up
in the reduced price it pays th farm
er. The key to the situation for As
toria and for the producer Is to secure
a rival bayer at Astoria, a result made
possible by the Celllo portage.
I notice that A. B. Hammonds Is
courting a 110,000 assessment on his
Irig avenue blocks. He would not,
I think, do this unless he were ready
to fight for common point rates for
Astoria, whereby fter population (and
renters) would, soon be doubled and
hie investment Justified. A. B.. like
Joey Bagsroek, is "de-ve-lish sly." He
has but to lead the movement for an
"opm river to the sea" through a
barge and elevator company In order
to secure this great boon, which would
break the railway combine against
Astoria. A half doren big wheat grow.
ers can do the same thing that A. B.
could do. Will Astoria Mg-t a move
on?" STDXET DEIA.
