HUNTINGTON WROTE
PROPHETIC LETTER
ON ASTORIA RATES
Noted Railroad Man 16 Years
Ago Saw Advisability of
Making Common Terminal.
The prophetic letter written by C
P. Huntington, noted railroad man, to
A. B. Hammond, builder of tha rail
road between Portland and Astoria, Is
again brought to mind by she Aatoria
rate decialon. The letter was written
IS years ago February 6, 1900 and
yet to read It is like perusing a docu
ment of today. ' Huntington wrote:
"New Tork. Feb. , 1900, Mr. A. B.
Hammond, Portland, Ore.: My Dear
Sir Referring to the conversation be
tween us on the subject of making As
toria a" common point with Portland,
and my decision to that effect, so far
as the Southern Pacific company is
concerned, let me say that since you
left ! have given the question much
thought. When X told you that tha
Southern Pacific company would do it.
X was still in atoms doubt whether It
would be a wise thing to do, avs it
would tmlld up Astoria and make that
port more of a competitor of San Fran'
Cisco, that could otherwise be the case,
end even , more than any of the towns
on Puget sound could be, as the latter
are all so much farther from the sea
than Astoria or San Francisco; be
sides which the Southern Paclflo com
pany would loae the long haul ltSe
cures by making San Francisco its
great embarkadero.
Mistake Will Be mealimed.
"But the more I have thought of the
matter tha more I am disposed to be
lieve that I was right In my judgment,
for man cannot change to any consid
erable extent the works, of nature. The
Columbia river can have only one out
let and that, of -course. Is at Astoria.
The watershed of that river is the
second largest in the United States, and
substantially all of the immense ton
nage coming from It must follow the
gravity Una determined by the course
ef the river, to its mouth, where It
can be transferred directly to the great
ships that are hereafter to do the com
merce of the seas. This result may be
prevented for a time by the. people
who are so Interested. in real estate,
but these people will some time learn
thai In opposing Astoria, as the em
barkadero of their . region of country
they have been making a mistake; al
though they may continue to strenu
ously hold to their views : until the
people living on the borders of Puget
sound shall have had time to so in
crease and improve their facilities for
the transfer of tonnage between rail
and ship that the danger and injury to
Portland ehall have become everywhere
recognised, and It might . then -take
years for the gravity line to assert
itself, as it la bound to do sooner or
later, since' no other power can com
pete continuously with gravity. The
time to act for Portland and that great
country of which she Is, and will no
doubt remain, the financial center, is
now, and I have no doubt that the wis.
dom and justification of my action in
declaring In favor of making Astoria a
common polht now will be seen in the
comparatively near future by all the
people of your )art of the country. .
Gravity Controlling rector.
"I have been, told that Mr. Scott,
proprietor and editor of The Oregon
Ian, underatand vhla question as I
do, and If he should use - his great
ability and lnfluei.ee to make -Astoria
the embarkadero of Portland,, only a
small precentage - of the tonnage of
the Columbia river watershed will be
lifted over the Cascade mountains to
go to Puget sound; and - even that
small part will take that course only
for a short time, for gravity lines on
the land, and the great ships on the
sea, are going ta determine the lines
of trade and. the direction of tonnage
hereafter. - Irr acting along these lines
I may not be serving my own best
interests at present, but the future la
longer than tha present, and he does
well who recognises the signs) of the
time and gets out of the way of the
Inevitable Portland has neighbors
on Puget sound who are not only wise, I
but energetic With Seattle's naturall
advantages to compete with, Portland
meets.' It seems to me, the imminent
danger of losing her financial prestige.
With a eeaport like Aatoria aa her
embarkadero. Portland, in my opinion,
can retain for practically all time to
come her proud - position as the fi
nancial center of the srest northwest
