ASTORIA, OREGON:
THURSDAY AUGUST 2. 1853
Astoria's Opportunity.
If Portland will not buy Tilla
mook lumber and San Francisco
will buy it, then Srii Francisco
will b the place when the lilla-
mook merchants will buy their
jrooas. Ana wuu wimi x c

I should hate to see that trade J.
leave Portland for San Francisco,
It is one of the most naturally pro-
d active countic-s of the state, ana
its trade should be one oi ue most
reliable feeders of the metropolis

Just so. and here is a pointer lor

Astnnn. f have our Salmon I

Astoria's wealth. Nothing is
secondare to it. The coast lroin

products; butter, cheese, hay, beef,
root crops, ana just- sucn yieiu as
can be most readily converted in-
to cash. Astoria merchants will
sell those products and will supply
t he coaat dwellers the roods they
want. That is, if the Astoria
merchants are awake to Uie great
opportunity; it is an opportunity
second to none ou the coast from
Mazatlan to Sitka. V,re can build
up a good trade iu this way, and,
what is more, a trade that shall in

Or late the Or cf ion tan has been
ilo.vnt.iiir f.nnsidor.ibhs siHc.e to
and
the
Astorians. In
'
yesterday s issue in an editorial
discussion of salmon propagation
... . . 1 .. .
and kindred tonics, it sensibly
savs: "Therc should exist among
the Columbia river salmon packers
an organization nice our local
trade or the Astoria
chamber of commerce. Such an
organization, representing a united
membership, could save hundreds
of thousands of dollars in agent's
fees, and control the salmon
markets of the world. The
ill condition of the present year,
which have umdo :i nrnsnernns
fishing season a season of hard
times with packers, could have
been averted by a united eDort,
and even the low prices now ruling
could be made to give place to
higher figures if all parties inter
ested would act as one man."
