The Kelly Lumber Company began yesterday to deliver lumber to be. lined in building the plunk road between this eity and Warrenton, and in few days the lumber will all lie on the ground. The mill hna been delayed for some time in furnihing the lumber because they hod no proper logs with which to secure the material for the road.. Now however, the work will proceed vapidly and aoon there will lie a good plank road between Astoria and Warrenton. No faseinntion equal that of a clear brained, tender-hearted, lovable women.

Astoria, Ore. "lar Sir: -There ha no dleus- sion in the Ongon pres of the law which i to be voted on next June, alailishing the Bur low Toll I'.oad and providing for its purchase by the state ami its conversion into a fre public highway. Th farmeisi who live along this road and who have to pay the tolls were able to raise enough money to circulate the petition to get thi law on the ballot, but have no money left with which to make campaign. We must, therefore, rely upon the newspapers of the Ute for a dl-cusslon of the matter, and be lieve that the entire community will sympathize with u in our effort. We therefore write you an explanation of the situation. "The Harlow Road crosses the Cas- le Mountain just south of Mt. Hood. There is no other road between It and the Columbia River on the north, and not for loo mile to the south. If you want to cross the Cascades you mut travel over the Harlow Road -and pay toll. "The Harlow Road is a strip of knd AO feet wide and nesrlv 70 miles long. The owners hold it under a grant made 40 year ago by the federal government. Their right to charge toll has been up held by the Supreme Court. "Tlw farmer in Clackamas and Wasco counties who live in the country tribu tary to thi road, have to pay toll on every head of sheep or cattle they drive to Portland. They have to pay 2.00 everv time tln-v cross the mountains in a wagon. Therv i no other road cross ing the Oseade. "Kvery Immigrant wagon must pay !. Kvery settler driving from the Willamette Valley to settle in Eastern Oregon (and there are lot of them) must pay fcl on hi little grfct of furni ture. and providing for the purchase of the road. They did not even know it was to le done. They agreed a ytwr ago w ith our representative to sell the road for a certain price. We then initiated the law oiirsejve and raised, the money to circulate the petitions, The owners of the roHil, I uudei'stand, do not want now to sell the rood t the price agreed on, 24-fKHr, but they will lie compelled to sell if the law pas-es, as we hold their agreement, If the state dm- not buy the road m-xt June, we will never have another elm nee to buy the rood for twice this amount of money. Nor could It be built oer again for f I00,IM)0, "There Is no way to get rid of this toll rtnt( except to buy it. As tlie state glows, it will become an imnu'nly valuable piece of property. Jn five years when thi country is thickly settled it will la- worth a fortune to own the only pass across the Cascade ami to have the right to charge toll on it. And the State will have t' buy it sooner or later. 1 "The farmer cannot buy the roa1 themselves. There i no reason why they, should. The rwl is a great state highway the same as the old Dalles wagon road w. The legislature ap propriated several thousand dollars to build the I)allcs wagon road. No one would complain if the state were 1 begin to build a new highway over the Cascades at a cot of at h ast $100,OQp. "V hope the Oregon press, which is usually ready to help the common peo ple, who will help the unfortunate far mers out in this, matter by publishing .this explanation. We have got to get rid of this toll road. Its existence is a hindrance to the growth of all central Oregon. Thi stats should help us and it will never have a better chance, nor as good a chance a bow. We have no money with ybhh to make a campaign. and will have to depend ntirely on the Clifton No. I. merit of our ease. Yours Respectfully,' Clifton No. 2. REGISTRATION CLOSES FULL. Up to th Standard Set In th Presi dential Year of 1904 At 5 fcloek yesterday evening County Clerk .1. C. Clinton closed the registra tion book of Clatsop county in ac cordance with the law, and the results, as taken from the record last night after the totals had Is-en cast, show the county to be on a regi-tered lisi with the presidential showing of 1!K)4. There were some forty or fifty registrations from outlying precinct received in the evening mall w hich will le added to the totals pis-senM herewith, being enter ed on the books this morning, and with these, the grand totals will alightly ex ceed the return from this department in 1904. A good sign this, when the republicans, who have done the most of the registering, swing the totals np to a point in excess of a year like that of 1M4, when the inpiration to register and vote is abnormally strong, since it iniliuuU's in tlie present instance, that the interest in the election pending is as deep as it was then, a conclusion as pleasing to republican as it is com mendable. Following are the figures taken last night, placed in line with the totals of 1904: TWENTY DOLLARS REWARD, A reward of twenty dollar will be given foe recovery of the body of Matt HummaMi who was drowned; the re ward will be given by the Finnish Brotherhood.

THE BEST Is HAT IN THE WORLD. WHAT IS THE BEST CLOTHING Morning Astorisn, 65c. per month. It is the fashion nowadays for every mother's son of a clothing dealer to claim that "HE" is the only favored one who caniea the "BEST" clothes. Do you, Mr. Customer, believe that ONE factory, make all the good clothes ia America. Indeed, some factories who were the ones, but a few years ago, have de generated and new men, young men, men of nerve, of ambition and of pride have grasped th rein and the M and S or the X and Y Brands of former , years, are passed NOW! Today, new people are to the fore, tomorrow too will be brushed aside, by younger, more vigorous men with newer ideas and so the world has, doea and ever will, move on. The question therefore Is: which one of your local clothiers is the most aggressive, the most up-to-date one; who is it that will take up new ideas, new makes FIRST? When you have answered that question, then you can safely decide as to who "DOES" come nearest to that ideal "Don't judge a firm by its pretensions." "Judge a clothier as you would a preacher." "A doctor, a lawyer, a mechanic, etc." "Judge every man or firm ny the "MAN BEHIND THE GOODS." w ise Astoria's Reliable Clothier isv.v.'v.v-: M f,'::;-:h fl $15.00 to $35.00 1
