pert test to ascertain the mineral prop
erties Short addresses were made by
prominent citizens, all favoring the pro
ject, and many good offers were made to
assist financially. On motion a commit
tee was appointed to make arrangements
to ship three car loada of sand, one from
Clatsop, one from Seaside, and one from
Sand Island. Chairman Welch appoint
ed J. II. Smith, F. A. Fisher and Martin
Foard. The committee will meet this
morning at 9:30 o'clock at the office of
J. H. Smith to make arrangements. It
waa also suggested that inasmuch a
it would require some money to load
and unload the sand, that Jas. W. Welch
Ke a coramitte of one to collect one dol
lar from every merchant to defray the
expenses. Over $20 waa collected in the
chamber before the meeting adjourned.
The government furnishe the sacks and
pays the freight, and the citizens are
supposed to furnish the sand.
There is no doubt but the sands are
rk-h with iron, platinum and gold, and
the experiment may result in bringing
a large number of capitalists to Astoria
for the purpose of utilizing the sands in
manufactured products. Dr. Day has
made an experiment of the sand and
pronounces it unusually rich in minerals
and states that iron can be manufac
tured in Astoria cheaper than any place
in the United States.
REW ASTORIA WATER.
Effort Will Be Made by Town Authori
ties to Secure Water.
The common council of New Astoria
are very anxious that the water main
from Astoria be extended to that town.
A communication will probably be sent
to the common council next Monday
night asking them to appoint a com
mittee to confer with a like committee
to be appointed by New Astoria for the
purpose of having the mains extended.
The Xew Astoria people are willing to
grant a franchise over all the streets and
pay the same rate as is charged in A
toria. All the water in New Astoria is
either surface water or is supplied by
rain tanks and the town is grownig and
would be more prosperous if it had good
water supplv. It is probable that the
common council will accede to the re
quest.
