WILLAMETTE PARMER: PORTLAND, OREGON, OCTOBER 5. 1883. ASTORIA. The future of Astoria is a study of interest for any person who has gener al knowledge of Oregon and some idea of the needs of commerce to bo devel oped in tho years to come. The great region wo call the Pacific Northwest in Ha unfoldini? and development will enact immutable laws and tear down and build up as inevitably as the years nnmn and ao. Astoria stands where tho trade of the world must naturally rnur.h when it enters and loaves tho Columbia river. Already the seaport clothes the hill side with homes and residences and its wharves and ware houses Btretch far along tho river shore, the wide flow offering many ad vantages for shipping. Its mills and canneries and transient trado give it power to stay and to grow, but tho world is Astoria's customer and looks to see it become a more important point as the years pass by. In the future Astoria will become rnilmnrl cAntre of maenitude The railroad from Forest Grove, through the Nehalem valley, will be a success in course of time, for its land grant tiosseses value that will bo appreciated if it is not rovoke'd. The extension of tho Northern Pacific road from oppo site Kalama to Astoria is a natural thing to be done and before many yoars we mav expect to see that work com Dieted. Every railroad or other work must add to Astoria; she is not in a position to be injured by any connec tion of tho sort In time a railroad system may come to the relief of tho coast region north and south of the Columbia to focus at Astoria. The rich Chehalis country and the Shoal water Bay region on the north have immense capacity for production. The resources of that country are not known and of course not developed. South of the great river is tho Tilla mook country of which the world is learning something. The Nehalem river and valley fill all tho interval towards the Willamette valley and con stitute a rich and productive region that will be very valuable when re claimed from forest conditions. The rivers that pour into Young's Bay possess fertile bottoms that will enrich whoever will properly clear them, Tho trouble with all this vine maple and alder valley country is that a little of it is all a man needs, whereas they all wish to get it in extensive tracts; forty acres of such land, well cared for, will produce with 320 acres of the best prairie soil of the "Willamette if the owner will put it to right uses and give it thorough culture. In the not distant futuro Astoria will be indeed "a city by the sea," and will possess its own peculiar connections nntli son hoard districts north and south of the Columbia. A great rail road ferry can transport trains across Young's Bay. Trains that shall cross the continent can come down to Astoria and travel over the coastwise railroads. That coast region will produce heavily of oats, potatoes, onions, hay, vege tables of many kinds and many varie ties of fruits. Especially it will grow and fatten beef and deal heavily in all dairy products. The moisture of the sea winds will favor all these staples while it will prevent many other products ripening. Lumbering will find inexhaustable means of supply in the Nehalem region and tho woodman's axe will help ref claim those rich bench lands. Those forests abound in fir, spruce, hemlock, cedar and other species of great value and they will require, a railroad to bring down logs or lumber to the ships waiting for cargoes. All that coast re gion abounds in such forests. There is also coal underlying all that region and certain to be a means of prosperi ty at no distant day. Coal and iron exist through those coast districts and are to become a means of wealth to all that country. While outlining for Astoria a future based on tho resources of tho Coast counties surrounding the mouth of tho Columbia, reaching northward to Puget Sound and tho Olympic moun tains, south and east to "Willamette and to Tillamook's valleys, we need not for get that she sweeps the broad river with her nets and gathers in the rich harvest of Columbia salmon, that all tho treasures of the river fisheries and tho fisheries of tho open sea may bo hers,-if she wilL Our sketch has not included the nautical trade that natur ally belongs to her. Tho futuro will see a greater commerce than wo have ever had come to the Northern gate way of Western America and Astoria will benofit by all that comes. Whether in time she will realize the great ambi tion of her enterprising citizens and contend for the chief commercial honore of tho North Pacific time alone can telL New York has Philadelphia within easy distance and great cities span the Atlantic shoro at frequent in tervals. Tho futuro will plant com mcrjial marts on our rivers and bays as they havo been planted on tho East ern shore. Astoria will become a metropolis and hand down to future ages in its commercial greatness a magnificent monument to the name of its early founder. YfOOL-fSKOWKRV COMVENTIOS. An Enthaslaatle Heeling sjeselntlons Adopted ralllax for Protection far Ike Wool lateresta of this Section. Thursday afternoon, September 27, a large number or cit'zens interested in the wool in dustry met at the court house in The Dalles. There were present representatires from all portions of the county, and also some frcm Washington Territory. The meeting was called to order and Hon. A. J. Dufur elected chairman and Col. Lang secretary. The meeting was addressed by the chair- man, who stated in a few words the o ject of the convention, and also the importance of takiwr, some decided action to protect the wool industry-of the country. He was followed by Colonel Lang, of the Sun, who also urged determined action in this regard. Hon. John Minto, of Salem, then addressed the meeting. He represented thoso Interested in this industry in the Willamette valley, and made a stirring speech in favor of an in crease in the wool tariff, and also made some pertinent sugg"Stions about ranges and the care of sheep. On nio'ion of Mr. Cooper, the meeting pro ceeded to permanent orgauiz ition. Colonel Lang then stated that if the mjtion would be reconsidored he would pretent a series of resolutions, that they might go be fore the state and also bsfore the country. The presidtnt then stated if there was no objection the resolutions could be read, and there appearing no objection, they were read, as follows: Whereas, Tne profitable development of the industries of this country depends upon such adjustment of the tariff as will render them self-sustaining; and Whereas, Such adjustments are impossible if attempted under partisan influences, and without accurate information as to the rela tions of the several industries to each other, at home and abroad, and the relations of con sumers affected by them; and Whereas, A dissemination of such reliable information as will correct the judgment of men in seeking such revision of tariff rates, aa the changes of productive commerce and finance may from time to time demand; but invariably retaining the principle of protec tion of American industries, labor and capi tal against that of all other oounties. There fore be it Resolved, That the information of local associations for the careful discus iion of such interest', so as to be able to form a correct publio sentiment, and to demand a safe pub lic sentiment, and to demand a safe public policy, is of the greatest importance. Resolved, That this convention demand of Hon. J. H. Slater and Hon. J. N. Dolph. United States senators, and Hon. M. C. George, our repreientative in'Congress, that they use every effort possible to restore the tariff on foreign wools to the rates whjch were maintained previous to the last session of Congress, Resolved, That a copy of this preamble and the resolves, which have been adopted by this convention, be placed in the hands of Hon. J. H. Slater, Hon. J. N. Oolpb and Hon. M. C. George. Speeches were than made by Messrs. A. A. Rodney, Hon. Harrison Dufur, W. Wigle, A. Dufur, John Minto and Sullivan, of Washington.

A re-union of the soldiers of the last war held at Yakima last Saturday, and was a very successful meeting. So-ne thief robbed the missionary fund of the Conirreeational ohurch at Seattle last Fri day night, the 27th nit It is evident that a lew missionaries ara uovuou iu auwi, tii.jr m stead of sending the money away. On Sunday, Sept. 31, while G. S. Taylor and wife and Mr. McGlothlen and wife were riding in a spring wagon near Yakima City, the horses suddenly started and threw the two ladies out, seriously injuring them. While crossing the Williams creek bridge one day last week a team attached to a. bug gy, the occupants being Mr. Knox and Miss Ftirftnn nf .JrMATmine. backed offthe bridffe and fell to the creek below, demolishing the buggy and injuring the lady quite severely, Mr. Knox and the horses escaped with a few slight bruises. Sentinel. Mr. H. Adams, a White river farmer, who has the reputstion of being one of the most systematic farmers on the river, will gather from eight acres of bottom land 3200 bushels of potatoes, or an average of 400 bushels per acre. AC ruling rates ne can market sue pro duct of the eight acres for $2500, which will pay about as well as a first-class mine. Her ald. Caritain Whitelaw. with his steam wrecker. la now at work on the burned steamer Miss- iasiDm. oreDarstorv to raisins her. Two large- sized cables were placed laronnd her during the afternoon, and anotner one or two win De worked under her to-day. Capt. Whitelaw goes to work as though he understood the business, and will doubtless be successful in raising the Mississippi. From the most reliable source we learn that there are now in Dayton, at the various warehouses, over 25,000 tons of wheat, or about 850,000 bushels. This amount seems almost incredible when it is considered that the crop has really just commenced to come in, and that probably over one half yet re mains to be hauled. Between 5000 and GOOO sacks are received in town dally. This is one evidence oi the vastness and richness of the country tributary to Dayton. Dayton State Journal. One day laat week a cowboy went to Rock lord and, filling up on " bug-juice," prepared to have some fun in the way of smashing windows and demolishing stone fronts. A constable tried to arrest him and was knocked down for bis trouble. With the assistance of several men the constable made a second at tempt. During the melee six abets were fired at the cowboy without a effect. He was finally overpowered and placed in irons. Tk oTftminitinn resulted in hia beimr bound over in the sum of SlbOO, in default of which he was jailed at Cheney. Gazette. i Last spring a largo number of fruit trets in two orchards at Franktown, Nov., were girdled by somo evil disposed person. At tho time the act was done it was thought all tho trees wcro killed, but much to tho surprise of evorybody. not one has died. The Reno Journal says : "This undoubtedly is duo to the fact that tho trees wero properly cared for at once. Joo Fray at onco filled the cuts in his trees with grafting wax and over this bound a heavy canvas and covered the whole with a heavy coat of paint Thompson filled the cuts in his trees with a heavy paste made of whito lead and oil, then bound closely with canvas and covered the canvas and tho trunk of tho tree with a thick coat of painty Tho result is that the trees are ns thrifty as thoy possibly could havo been had nothing happened, and arc bearing more and bettor fruit thnnever before."

I have all the advertisements that the Bulletin can well cirry, but recently we had an epi demic of chest and throat diseases, and jour medicine ( An.men's Cough Syrup) was used in my family with good leaults, though my faith in all st rts of so-called Datent medicines is lit tle indeed. That it did good in this case, j however, I believe, and for that reason will J advertise it. If you will take the trouble to g'anCe over the columns of the Bulletin you will discover that they ire clean from all nos trums and quack remedies, though applications reach me almost every week for spsce.
