It is held, by some of the mo-e sanguine people of this section, that the lumber situation here is not to be ijnhe so disadvantaged by the re moval of the tariff from lumber, might have been supposed; and bv way of substantiating this cheerful aspect, they claim that the doubling of the capacity of the Hammond Lumber Company's splendid plant at Tongue Point, in the face of the threatened tariff action is an indica tion of an assured and contracted business there, that in part obviates any dubious promise; again it is held by those acquainted with the immedi ate conditions, that at least three of the biggest logging concerns in this neighborhood are fortified with string of contracts that will keep their camps and affiliated mills going, straight through; and the Clatsop Milling Company is' held to be charg ed with engagements that will keep its people on the jump "all through sating sort. "He laughs best who lauahs last", and it were well to kee, iour mouths set for loud, long laugh! HERE'S TO THEM I There are an even 100 days ahead of the Columbia River fishermen, in the 1909 season, for the taking of the beautiful and compensating game of the sea and stream,, and they enter noon their work with the profoumlest food will of the landsmen everywhere for an enormous catch and a seasoi free from ill lnck and death. They are entitled to every atom of advantage that may come to them, not alone on account of the skill, the strife, the risks, involved in their hardy calling and its successful pro secution, but for the steady and hon est faith they have kept with the tw States, when the compact was torn to tatters by neighboring fishermen who were not men enough to stand by the big industry 'upon a square incentive of its advantage and up building by conforming to that agree ment tacitly, but who took advantage of the shallowest of pretexts m swarm upon the two hatchery streams and slaughter deliberately, whe.e vm instinct of preservation and but with equally glaring and drastic clearness reveals the black and rot ten aspect along her four-mile water front. We again second Mayor Smith's motion that owners along the picr-hcad line get to work and route out the unsightly wreckage of the ages there and make' the city more presentable to the incoming and out going tourist who travels by steamer. Our children are in safe and excel- lant hands so long as we may commit them to the custody of such people as have been our guests for the past three days; even though we are re miss, ourselves, in controlling aim guiding the youngsters. The Astoria Odd Fellows have taken due and honorable notice of the 90th anniversary of their grest order, much to the pleasure of their numerous guests. This is one of the solidest and most dignified of the great fraternities of the land, and -growing rapidly. POSITIVE RELIEF l!t FIVE DUTES THERE WILL BE NO STOMACH MISERY OF DYSPEPSIA.
