    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.

Thursday afternoon, September 27, a large

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.

From the most reliable source we learn
that there are now in Dayton, at the various

almost incredible when it is considered that

in, and that probably over one half yet re

I have all the advertisements that the Bulletin

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
