O gjtr gJnilg gusttn&m. ASTORIA, OREGON: FRIDAY MARCH 23, 18h3 Busy Times. A dispatch from San Francisco yesterday saj's that both passen gers and freight have been de clined for the steamer to sail Saturday. Orcgonian, 22. Nothing illustrates the growth of this country better than the fact that a steamer such as arrives here this morning is obliged to leave freight and passengers at San Francisco. A year ago a steamer every five days was not overburdened though it was a matter of general comment that the steamship companies were doing "an enormous business." Now, two steamers a week cannot carry the men and material that go to build up this northwest coast, and we doubt not that when the steamers leave for the Columbia every three days, according to the new schedule which goes into effect in a week, their carrying capacity will be as severely taxed. From the southern coast and the Mississippi valley, from the east ern states and Canada, from far off Europe, half way across the globe come thousands seeking homes and employment. It is more than immigratien: it is an exodus, and yet it does but indi cate the westward rush that will take place when the immigrant may take railroad passage for transit to this northwestern coast. The news has gone abroad that here is a great county, of inex haustible resources and boundless possibilities; of never failing field:, and magnificent forests; where sufficient moisture is assured to guarantee a crop; where fierce competition has not yet brought to bitter fruit the blossoms borne across the sea, and where honest industry can safely count upon abundant reward. Nor need the' immigration be confined to our own state or vicin ity. To the north lies a noble em pire. The counties of Pacific, Wahkiakum and and Chelialis are as rich in natural wealth and com mercial situation as any of our Western Oregon counties, and the magnificent stretch of country that is washed by Puget Sound is further seat of empire.
