We are credibly informed by the dispatches from Salem yesterday morning, that the desperate murder at St, Paul, in Marion county, on Tne- day night, was due to the presence and active participation of "some Astoria toughs We are amazed at the Inain uatlon.

In the communication signed by "Ob' server and published in this issue of the Morning Astorian, there is a tacit , hint that Astoria is super-aggressive in the matter of its solicitude towards railroads and transportation enter prises generally. In sheer defense against the possibility of such a con struction being assumed in the minds of our readers, we take the opportun ity of making a deliberate statement of the actual relation borne by Astoria on this hugely important issue; that is, as the Morning Astorian in its position as a public medium of popular expression understands its duty: Astoria, from its rem' situation, at the mouth of a great river; as the entre pot of a great metropolis, its contig uity to the broad Pacific, its own vital necessities as a sea-port and an export ing center, is, and mnst be, devotedly interested ia the widest possible devel opment of the best, the quickest, the most direct, frequent, easiest, safest schemes of transportation possible to be brought into the State of Oregon And so far as known this is the actuat ing principle that governs her people at all times, in their aspiration to be fairly and honestly included in these designs of the great companies forging the transportation certainties of the future. This is the simplest and most straight-forward statement that occurs to us in this premise, and we Rive it in all sincerity. We do not begrudge an atom of suc cess to Portland or any other eommun ity in the broad state, if only the right of Astoria to decent and equitable con sidemtion in the immense deals is tak en into account and made something of; but we resist, and rebel logically effectual and altogether beyond the pale and honestly, against the cold-blooded doctrine that we are small, remote, m of estimate in the very things that we know we must figure in at Some not remote day in the future. We begrudge the time lost to us, the years wasted in the waiting for what is, by every law of commercial development, ours right now if ordinary equities prevailed and Portland was less fearful of their prevalence. Oregon may be grid ironed with rail ways until her remotest camp of in dustry is tapped and made accessible and resourceful; her every marine gate way may be thrown wide open to the largess of the world and for her con tributions to it, so long as Astoria is in the deal somewhere; so long as she is fairly treated in the great game. It is the direct, unblushing course of re pudiation imposed by the one controll ing influence in the state, that calls forth our fighting propensities, and in effectual as they have appeared to be. to date, we have abundant and un swerving confidence in their final poten tialities, and will prosecute them to the end of it all, and the need of them shall have vanished. This city could and would make her own way in the world of progress if her hands were not tied by the cords furnished by the city, of all others, that should nurture and nourish the outlying depots of Oregon for its own splendid up-build-ing and success.
