In. 1 1
, No longer need the city' at the
mouth of the Columbia be known as
the Rip Van Winkle - of- northwest
towns.-...-.
In the second century of her his
tory Astoria has taken stock Of her
elf, Brie has found youth, not age;
hope, not defeat. She '; has set out
to make the promises of
years come true. She Is
no longer; looking to any other to
dower her with, unearned aid. As
toria la finding herself.
These " thoughts I brought back
from a visit to Astoria last week.
There had been previous visits when
the atmosphere of the city bir the
sea 'seemed, frankly, to speakXdor
rrant contentment and municipal Nas-
sltude. The chance was all the
more gratifying that it furnished
opportunity for contrast with first
findings.
Booster Masting Called.
At the water's edge test piling out
lined the boundaries of the public
docks to bo built. In an office, with
fittings yet incomplete, an engineer
In .the port commission's employ was
Studying over the plans of the Joint
water" and rail municipal terminal
' that would Include provision not
alone for passengers and current
freight, but for' bunkering of vessels
and fuel oil supply and for storage
of fruit; a sea wall is projected.
Plans were being discussed for the
new highways already authorized by
vote; the city's boundaries were be
ing pushed back by new residence ad
ditions and streets; there was under
way a considerable amount of build
ing, though not so much as may be
expected, -It was an-atmosphere of
accomplishment.
. The reason for the visit was a
booster meeting called by Dr. Alfred
Kinney, There have been booster
meetings and booster meetings.
Most of them have occupied exces
sive time with extravagant and never-to-be
realized claims. This one had
more balance.' Prospects'Vof commu
nity profit from determined action
and the difficulties that beset prog
ress we're both consulted. The men
of the city that were young in spirit,
whether gray haired or no, came to
attend. The new president of the.
Hill lines in Oregon, the traffic man
ager, the general manager were pres
ent..from Portland, as were Wallace
R. - KtruMe of Lewlston, the general
freight agent of the O.-W. R. & N.,
to speak for the president and gen
eral manager. The result of this
gathering was the beginning of organ
' ixatlon that may accomplish much of
what Is hoped for Astoria.
If the organization be strong, defin
itely programmed, persistently har
monious, broadly vlsloned, and de
votedly energetic, it can put Astoria
on the map in a big way. ,
Bail Bats Question Booms.
The only lingering question left in
mind after witnessing its beginnings,
with O. B. Johnson, one of Astoria's
strongest young men, as president,
was that the need of scheduling the
things to be done might not suffi
ciently Impress Itself.
Astoria's double handicap must be
removed beforo Astoria's position of
strategic Importance at the mouth of
, the nation's second greatest river and
first port of call from deep water,
will hp realized.
The' government should always be
hearing from Astoria that removal of
the natural handicap the bar at the
harbor entrance is vital. The rail
road interests should never be al
. lowed to forget that the discrimina
tory and unjust rates Imposed on
Astoria ; must be equalized on the
same basis as Puget Sound and Brit
ish Columbia's terminals.
In the fight for common point
rate- I believe Astoria has an ele
ment of hope that merits large con
sideration. In 1915 the Celilo canal
will be complete and in use. It has
been called the "Panama canal of the
Northwest." It will open a continu
ous waterway from Astoria to Lew
iston. It is stated on the authority
of careful Investigation that 40 per
cent of the wheat produced! in: the
-Columbia district may be convenient
ly barged down the river at low cost
for transportation. This would mean
8.080,000- or more bushels a year.
Other products of the district may
be similarly handled. Water, trans
portation will furnish a real compe
titive element that will certainly get
for Astoria her terminal rates,' now
denied chiefly for the lack f the
competition that exists in respect to
more favored Washington ports.
City Weeds Industries. :
Another conclusion forced Itself
. upon me following a day largely spent
in calling upon Astoria business men.
The town lacks Industries. After you
get by lumber and fish, important
as they are. there Isn't much, left.
consumption over-balances produc
tlon. This state of affairs Is not
healthy for any community. There
ought to be a survey of the city to
see what Industries are needed to
transform convenient raw products
into things to wear, eat and use. both
locally and for export.

ROPOSAIiS for constructing rein
forced concrete bridges and via
ducts on the Columbia highway
between Latourell and Dodson
will be opened by the board of
county commissioners March 12. The
plans for these structures have been
designed by Engineer K. P. Blllner,
and they are on exhibition at the office
Of Consulting Engineer Samuel C. Lan
caster, room ' 300, -county building.
There Is an active competition among
contractors to secure the work of con
struction, and it is expected there will
be about 30 bids submitted.,
Explaining .his plans. Engineer Bill
uer said:
"A prominent Portland man said the
other day, 'the Columbia highway Is
being built not for the day but for all
time.'
"The bridges for the highway have
been deslaneu with this motto as the
leading thought. fhey ar.e to be per
manent structures of reinforced con
crete. On the section of the highway
between Latourell and Dodson there
are-a number of streams and deep can'
yons to be spanned. In selecting the
types- of bridges best adapted for each
location two main factors were taken
into consideration. These are econ
omy and esthetics. The combination
of these two factors is not so diffl
cult as is generally presumed, espe
cially in bridge designing, where they
often to a certain extent coincide. For
instance, ; the lighest bridge, spanning
a deep canyon, makes the boldest ap
pearance. It also requires the least
material and lightest frame work In
Its constructipn. The lightness and
boldness of a structure should not
mean a decrease in strength, and It
should be borne in mind that all the
bridges for the Columbia highway have
as high a load factor as any modern
highway bridge, and are calculated to
carry the loads of the heaviest steam
rollers, and auto trucks in the country.
"One of the most original and lightest
designs of the structures Is the one
lver Latourell creek below the fall a
This structure is 310 feet long and
100 feet high above the creek bottom.
Drawings of, bridge to be built along the Columbia River highway.
Top Reinforced concrete bridge at Latourelle falls, 24.0 feet
long. ,
Center, left to right Arch bridge over Multnomah creek; section
of reinforced concrete viaduct near Multnomah Falls.
Bottom Reinforced concrete, arch, 100 feet long, over Young's
Creek at Shepherd's Dell.
In Its lightness of construction It will
have a most effective appearance com
pared to the rugged and high' cliffs
surrounding 11 The engineering fea
ture at this place required selection
of a concrete bridge or an additional
3000 feet of roadway built along steep
mountain sides, together with a small
bridge. After careful survey It was
shown that the larga bridge would be
the most economical, as it not only
shortened the construction of roadway
but also lessened the gradients. The
bridge adopted consists of three rein
forced concrete arch trusses, 80 feet
center to center, resting on piers set
on bedrock. The total width of the
driveway is 17 feet, and on either side
of the driveway , ire curbed, walks
three feet wide. ' !
"Another structure is to be erected
at Shepherd's Dell, between Xatourell
and Bridal Veil, one mile east of La
tourell. This structure consists main
ly of a 100 foot concrete arch of very
high construction, which spans a; can
yon with high, almost perpendicular
cliffs forming its sides. This is one
of the most picturesque spots 'on the
highway. Added to the magnificent
view are two beautiful waterfalls vis
lble from a short distance from the
last mentioned bridge, and If you will
bear T in mind that the structure is
erected on an elevation of ISO feet
above the creelt below, while in the
front of the . panorama the Columbia
river stretches its. sheet of sparkling
water as far-as the "vision can reach,
you (will have a picture of one of the
prettiest views along the entire high
way; . - -
"The 400 foot viaduct shown is an
example of how a steep mountain
slcftje, too steep to safely support a
retaining wall, was negotiated. There
Will be two such structures near Mult
nomah falls.
'The bridge over Multnomah creek
Is a solid elliptical arch designed to
harmonize with the strong, rough fea
tures of the cliffs below the falls."
