the proposition at this time, as he is a great believer in action.
It is well to state, however, that any merchant or business man in Astoria
er fn this section who deems it possible to cultivate a business with the
Hawaiian Islands would do well to communicate with Mr. Elmore. It is self
evident, however, that an important thing for Astoria and the Astoria mer
chants at this time, is that every exertion be made to secure cargoes of
greater or less importance for Oriental shipment or for shipments to New
York and it should be entirely within the range of possibilities to secure full
cargoes for the liners of the AmericanHawaiian Steamship Company here in
Astoria within the very near future.
Should the promised facilities be completed by the Hill Railroad inter
ests so as to encourage exports from Astoria, Mr. Elmore's endeavors will
be of still greater value than they otherwise would. But should these facili
ties not be forthcoming it js up to Astoria to hew a way to greatness tn
export business as well as in all other lines of commerce.
This is but the opening wedge and now that it has been firmly driven it
is to be hoped that efforts in this direction will be still further stimulated
and that wherever a transportation line or a transportation company tries to
belittle or injure the commerce of Astoria, that the business men of the
Chamber of Commerce may be able through some means or other, in a like
manner to find still another opening wedge.
Considering the intelligent, hard work that is now being done by the
business men of this city through well organized methods, it is difficult to say
how Astoria can fail to accomplish her destiny within a very short time.

by Prof. A. L. Clark, superintendent
of the city schools, that the increase
of teachers' salaries for the coming
year will amount to nearly 10 per
cent, ror the school year that has
just come to a close the teachers'
salaries monthly aggregated $2280;
for the coming year the monthly ag
gregate will be $2480. This sum mul
tiplied by 10 will give the amount of
money to be spent during the coming
year for the teachers, as there are 10
months in the school year.
Clark yesterday also received a tele
gram from h. P. Bradley, of'Allm
tuerue, X. M., accepting the offer to
become principal of the Adair school. '
'Wie board had seriously considered
the advisability of offering the prin
eipalship of the high school to Mr. '
Bradley, and counts itself fortunate in
now procuring his services at the
head of the ward school. Both of
these gentlemen were desirous of

assembled voted to increase the
school tax two mills, and a sudsidiary
motion declared that the extra tax
ation was for the purpose of increas
ing the salaries. The board of educa
tion has more than once been severe
ly taken to account for delaying ac
tion in granting the increase, as the
new schedule of salaries will not go
into effect for upwards of a year after
the time when the taxpayers voted for
the higher payment. Following is the
new schedule of payment

'the increase for the coming year is a
school is pretty well told by the sal
aries paid. Our salaries arc a little
higher-than in Eugene, Salem and
other towns, and we think we have
correspondingly better schools."
The board of education also recent
ly adopted another resolution of much
importance. In effect it is tjiat the
board recommends that for every
year of service the teachers shall be
given an additional $5 a month. This
rule is not a rigid one, however, and
will be only permitted in such cases
wherein the board is satisfied that the
teachers are worthy an defiicient.

famous "Country Dance" to be given

under careful management. The fire

William McCray, an old resident of
Knappa and well known to very many
in Astoria, was probably instantly
killed while working on the county
road at Svcnson sometime before
noon yesterday. He was grubbing out
an old dead tree, that was decayed
around the roots unknown to Mc
Cray. The tree fell, striking him on
the head and it is thought he was
killed instantly. He was working alt
alone it the time, and just how the
accident happened is not known save
by inference. The. accident occurred
sometime between 10 o'clock and
noon. He was not missed until time
for dinner, and when he failed to put
in his appearance as usual for his
mid day meal, his fellow workmen
became alarmed and several of them
started a search for him thinking that
perhaps he had met with a naccident.
Their suspicious were fully relized,
for upon arriving on the scene they
found the unfortunate nun securely
pinned beneath the fallen tump amf
apparently quite dead. The body was
removed with all haste, and Under-
j work, such as logging and working in
