t 2Jfcc Sailg Qstortntu I ASTORIA, OREGON: FRIDAY JUNE 8, 18S3 Astoria's AlternatiTC. Coxtkxst is simply resemblance with the addition of a negative. Questions like tHe following no . doubt often arise in the minds of our rc'aHers. Is it better for Clat sop county and vicinity that the Astoria land grant should be earned by the building of the rail road, or would it be better for the whole coun'try-that the land grant be declared forfeited. It may be s&kI in favor of the latter proposi tion that if the grant is now de clared forfeited we should have a railroad built immediately. True, it "would not be a railroad run ning in connection with, or more particularly under the con trol of the Villard system, but it would be a railroad built for the trade in lumber, coal" and iron, were .the land grant or claim to the grant.out of the way. jln'additioa we should have the lands opened to settlement by congress this winter. "We should have, in that case, both the settle ment of the country and a railroad immediately connecting Astoria with "the" AY illamette valley. On the other band it may be said that if the Vjllard combina tion build the roid this year to earn' the grant, that Astoria would probably be the most important terminus of the Northern EaciGc ruuiroaa; large saw mills would arise to work up the logs which would be brought out of the Ne halem by the railroad. The steamers of the Oregon Improve ment company as well as sail ves sels would bo employed in carry ing this lumber to very port on the Pacific; the coal in the Neha lent would be mined and used to supply all the steamers and for San Francisco shipment, while grain elevators and a large dry dock would also be built to sup . ply the pressing needs of a fast increasing commerce. The Astouian has always tried to be just to the railroad company that is at once developing this northwest coast and its own mag nificent fortune, and in constantly iterating and reiterating its dic- .tum that the Astoria railroad must be built or the Astoria land grant forfeited, has assumed a position that at once concedes all rights that the railroad can reasonably claim and demands all rights that the people, the original owners of the soil naturally hold. It must be remembered that that grant was made by Congress for a help to the building of the road to As toria; it was net intended by our national legislators that this grant should be held until it of itself b'1 cvne of more intrinsic value than the colt of the proposed railroad aad then "earned" by the company. Nor was it intended that it should be held seven ears after the spec--lified time for building, as a har rier to other parties who are will ing totbuild a railroad through the same country. We are reliably informed that an offer was made to Villard last fall to build the railroad from Astoria to Forest rGrove fotthe land grant, or rather for a quit-claim deed to whatever right or title his company is alleged to"po6sess. The proposed terms were, in general, that Villard should exchange the Astoria land ''criatjj&the Completed road to Astoria. These parties, who were responsible financially and other "v!sej would have built the greater part of the road this year, so as to tbj.surc of the grant ere Congress met again. JfriVillard'has an engineerin aad surveying party at present in the field. It is manifest that at tWpresent rate of speed nothing .in tthe way of construction can be done this season, -if indeed the sarrey and preliminary workings can incompleted. A due regard foe ttfe requirements of the case would suggest that thirty or forty Miles of the road be built from Astoria this season. It may be " 'Aat Mr. Villard has superior soarces of information, or special facilities for influencing legisla ; tis also possible that that eUMaan is too confident of being able te delay the forfeiture of the graat beyond the next congress. 'sMUmeg are a little overconfi 4etf .tfeeir ability to influence 4 fubrert. If Mr. Villard has to wait until his one party now between here and Forest Grove shall report before he can make any definite decision regarding the building of the road, it may bo a futile proceeding on his part. There exists no reason for delay beyond this summer in building the road. If it is not built this summer the indications are that congress will declare the grant forfeited. A close examination of eastern exchanges indicates a general feeling throughout the country against further govern mental 'dalliance with the people's domain, and it is right that it should be so. The Railway Reporter says that the Cleveland, Akron, and Columbus Railroad company have recently issued a new time card, based on the twenty-four hours system that of numbering the hours of the day from one to twenty-four, instead of making two di visions of twelve hours each des ignated or distinguished as ante meridian and post meridian a. u. and P. 11. At present still an other designation is used, that of M. when 12 midday is to be dis tinguished from 12 p. m. The Reporter saj's that this company isthc first to employ this continu ous system; but in reality the method is a very old one, coeval with the history of clocks, and is still in use in some parts of south eastern Europe. The llcporter adds, that "the day begins at mid night, as under the common sys tem, but there is no possibility ot confusion between forenoon and afternoon hours. The great ad vantage of this scheme in a rail road time table will be seen at ence: 7 a. ,v. and 7 p. m. are fre quently misprinted or misunder stood, while no one will confound 7 o'clock with 19 o'clock. Any watch or clock can be adapted to the system by simply putting the extension of the hours in a circle just inside of those already on the face. The exterior numbers will then be consulted up to 12 o'clock (noon), and the interior ones for the remainder of the dav. Tiiere are two popular notions about death that, though they con tradict one another, have adher ents throughout Christendom. One is that what is called a natur al death takes place with the ebb of the tide; the other, that it oc curs after midnight, in what are called the small hours before dawn. Recent New York records show, as might have been expected, that the Black Rider, who respects neither age nor worldly condition, is indifferent in timing his visits. In that city in one week the great est number of deaths took place at 11 o'clock in the day, when there were seven; but there were five deaths in each of the hours of 3, 4, 7 and 10 o'clock in the morning and 3, 4, "and 7 o'clock in the even ing. Four persons died at 5 o'clock, G o'clock, and at 9 o'clock in the morning and at 1 o'clock and G o'clock in the evening, and three persons died at each of the hours of 1 and 2 o'clock a. m. and S, 10, and 11 o'clock p. m. There happened to be no deaths at 5 o'clock in the evening. There were 10 more deaths before noon than after it. The State Journal says reports of fine crop prospects continue to come from eastern Oregon and Washington. The grain yield in Umatilla county will be several times greater than before. Wasco county, too, expects a fine crop. Meeting of Board of Equalization. V70TICE IS HEREBY GIYENThat LX the Board or" Equalization of the City of Astoria, consisting of Council nien J. Hume, I. W.
