Hint of What May Be Looked For In Aatoria At An Early Date Enterprise That Meant Pref tlge and Prosperity. The On-gotiiau of yfthterday contains the following significant bit of news, that bat a direct bearing on, and for, thin city and county: , "Beginning August 1, the Oregon Rail road A Navigation Company will equal ize the difference in charges against this port and the Sound by absorbing the liffcrential of Is 3d levied against grain anil flour cargoes sailing from the Columbia River for export. "Tula action Is in effect a reduction on local freight rates on grain and flour including wheat milled at Portland, which is transhipped here by sailing vessels to European port. This reduc tion amounts to 10 cents on a long ton of 2240 pounds. "This absorption of the arbitrary dif ferential levied anain-t Portland by the mailing ship combine was predicted tome time ago when the joint wheat rates between Portland and the Sound were announced. After some consideration, the Harriman road agreed to the propo sition and stated that the differential would be taken care of. The announce ment yesterday of the date for tbt ac tion by the railroad company to take effect brings the matter to a definite basis." Aitoria is in possession of the com mon point rate upon everything except grain and mill-stuffs, and this move puts her in the favored list with all other coast cities, in this essential particular. This absorption raises the last em bargo from a long-contemplated enter prise that hat been held in abeyance un til this very thing should come to pass; and this fall will undoubtedly witness the fulfilment of the long delayed ven ture, f There are men in Portland and this city who have arranged every detail for the installation of a big 800-barrel-per- day flouring mill in, or very near Aa toria, and in Clatsop county, with ample capital to build and operate it; and now that the last obstacle will be removed, the initial move toward the actuality may, be looked for at any time. 1 The Astoriun is in possession of names and facts and amounts and only with holds them in deference to the wishes of those engaged in the enterprise, and heralds the simple, yet important fact, that the investment and work are imminent, and practically certain. It means much to Astoria and will contribute largely to her prestige and prosperity.

KANAGA TALKS INTEREST INGLY ON THE IMMENSE AD VANTAGES ASTORIA HAS OVER OTHER CITIES. "Tlu re is not a city or- town in Ore gon today that has the chance for future development equal to Astoria," said A. R. Kannga to an Astoriun reporter. "This city has a waterway of more than 200 miles along the Columbia. It now has railway facilities to every part of the United States. They can ship lumber and wheat to every part of the world. "Within the next five years at least 25 large saw mills will be built on the Columbia river and Astoria should have ten of them. You have an opening here for two flour mills, two or three cooper age plants; and as many large whole sale door and eash factories. "I spent two days at Rainier the past week and Banker Lewis showed me over the town. It's growth in the year past has been 00 per cent givater than that of Astoria, "Rainier has three large saw mills in town and five mills in its immediate vicinity. They have a big Bash and door factory that has an enormous daily output. "They have a wood moulding plant and a. large soap manufactory, two banks and buildings going up in all directions. I looked into the secret of their development and it is simply this They are making a bid, for saw mills and factories; they give the newcomer a mill site on such modet term that the mill man of eoutve starts in btmfness at Rtinier. I would like to tee Astoria carry 4-lm-b. drmWe-eolumo ad. in about two big 'flour mill journals; two lumber, two manufacturing, two coop' erage, two engineering monthly m zm. Thoe published In Xew York, Chicago, and Minneapolis, at an expense of 12.80, they could carry on advertise menlf for six months in eight or ten first-class publications, this would In sure at least five new manufacturing enterprises, for Aitoria and they would employ say 3ft to (500 men. This would be ft big move forward for this city. "The La-tern lumber supply is ex hsusted and the whole East is looking to Oregon and Washington for lumber. The great impetus has. not just begun in earnest, but It It coming gradually. j f Between Portland and Tacoma on the Northern Pacific, the lint is dotted over with new mills and nine out of ten were built during the last three years. It U tlw Eastern trade that creates the out fit for this Oregon lumber. "Portland miU haul logs 100 mile to that city; Astoria can do the tarne; and to better advantage for yon can tow them down stream while tbey pull them Up stream. Astoria should have five to ten more saw mills and if they don't come here tbey will go elsewhere. I believe I can set Astoria' advantages much better now than when I resided here. It bat every town on the Colum bia distanced and it only requires a little enterprise to get the mill men here. They are now building in every sec tion of the coast, and if you can get them to come here, then eid them with a mill site free of cost if you can; even If you have to get every man to subscribe to it; this kind of enterprise will beat the bote! project, for 'the bitter can take care of itself, better than this mill site. "If you can offer mill sites free or even at a, low price or on a long lease at low rates, mill men will come beta and Astoria will be a bummer. The weak point in your future is that in the post you have not extended inducements to men of money to establish their mill plant htre. "Oakland, California, by way of ex ample, baa given ground free to at least twenty mill plants in the year past, and this money to pay for thee mill sites is paid by the Oakland Chamber of Commerce, and that means the people have chipped in the coin. "Property owners down there tell property very low in rate when to be used for manufacturing purposes, and I know these Astoria land owners and most of them are broad guaged men; they will sell their land at a reasonable figure when for industrial purposes; they will do their share, but will refuse to do it all. I mean they will not give their land away free for the purpie I named. If the people take hold, I am absolutely certain tbey will do their part." , Body Found, The body of $ year-ol I Hugh Koski, son of Ifcrmsn A Koski. was found yesterday morning by hi father floating in the river just below the Elmore cannery net racks, where) it had drifted. Though no on. will ever know bow the accident occurred in which the child met hi death, It is probable that he tripped over some obtructirn and fell into the river, where he was drowned.
