A SERIOUS MATTER.
Tlie Question of Suspension of Govern
jnent Work on the Columbia and
Wliat It Means for East
ern Oregon and
Washington.
4
The controversy between Astoria and
Portland over the question of preventing
any further government aid in keeping
the Columbia river open to navigation,
is attracting widespread attention, and
will demand the consideration of the
people of the state.
A 'gentleman from Portland today
stated that it seemed very strange that
after the government had spent $3,000,
000 at the Cascades ; had expended
$2,500,000 on a jetty for the purpose of
deepening a channel, and contemplates
the expenditure of another two or three
millions above The Dalles, that it should
now waste all this work in refusing any
farther aid in keeping the channel open
that has already been made deep enough
Detween Portland and the sea for the
passage of even war vessels.
The interior of Oregon and Washing
ton connot afford to have the Columbia
riyer closed, which would result in the
further and higher taxation of farmers
eim ply for the purpose of supporting a
railroad built between Astoria and Port-
janu ior m uanuung oi tourists.
The Astoria railroad is all well and
good, but Astorians cannot expect it to
be maintained at the expense of the rest
of the state, nor can any, but natural
business means be employed to secure
handling of grain at the mouth of the
river.
Ship owners make the same rates on
grain from Astoria as they do from
Portland, and to Btop ships from going
to Portland under the present conditions
would simply add -another tax upon the
farmers of the interior.
Deafness Cannot be Cared
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafnes9 is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
flamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine casas out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous sur
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deaf ness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh
Cure. Send for circulars ; free.
