ABOUT AN ABTOBIA BAILBOAD.
Dr. Kinney Interviews The Southern
Pacific People At San Francisco.
A reporter of the Oregonian
met at the Holton house last eve
ning, Dr. Aug. Kinney, of Astoria,
who has just returned from a trip
to San Francisco.
The doctor was called to the
Golden Gate by the dangerous ill
ness of a sister, but whose recovery
enables him to return. He does
not allow the practice of his pro
fession to interfere with his duties
regarding public enterprises. Dr.
Kinney has always manifested a
great interest in the project of a
railroad for Astoria, and on being
asked a he had any new informa
tion on that question replied:
"While I was in San Francisco
I took occasion to call on the resi
dent officers of the Southern Pa
cific railroad, and lay before them
tho advantages of building a line
from Forest Grove or Cornelius
through the Nebalem country to
Astoria. In my opinion, either the
products of the great coal fields or
the timber supply of this rich sec
tion, unsupported by the other,
would guarantee a profitable in
vestment for such a road. These
valuable products cannot be mar
keted without a railroad, and so
far as I know, no railroadman who
has looked into the matter doubts
the judiciousness of such an enter
prise. "What success did your efforts
meet?"
"I regret to say that so far as I
could judge, little encouragement
could be derived from their ex
pressions on the subject. Know
ing the taciturn nature of railroad
officials, however, I am not dis
posed to regard my mission as
wholly fruitless."
"What efforts are Astoria oeo-
ple making, if any, for a railroad
to their place?"
"Their movement, as you know,
has taken the direction of a pro
posed line southward from Astoria
along the ocean towards Tillamook
and iaquina bay. The amount
raised so far is enough to com
plete a road as far as Seaside. It
is possible that the Oregon Pacific
will build northward along the
ocean to a junction with the As
toria line. I am informed that
this project has met with favor in
Oregon Pacific circles."
"Do you think there is any
chance of the Northern's building
into Astoria?"
"I do not think there is at pres
ent. My reason for so thinking is
that I am satisfied that there is an
agreement between the Oregon
Railway & Navigation company
and the Northern Pacific, by which
the latter is bound to abstain from
such an extension. There is no
other way of accounting for their
neglect to do so; for from Hun
ter's Point to Astoria is only fifty
five miles, and considering the im
mense summer travel and the traf
fic of the lower Columbia which
would fall into their hands, there
can be no doubt of the profit
which the extension would yield."
"Perhaps the Oregon Railway
& Navigation company contem
plate such a step."
"In my opinion they do not; nor
will they as long as the whole
island traffic of Astoria is swllowed
up by their boats. They filed ar
ticles, it is true, some time ago,
looking towards such a road, but
nothing of a practical nature lias
come of it yet.
"Probably the only solution of
the necessity, then, is an independ
ent road?"
"I think so; and if an independ
ent company, showing evidence of
its ability to carry forward its part
of the agreement should propose to
build a railroad from Astoria to a
railroad connection to the east
ward Hunter's point, or near
Forest Grove, for instance it
could obtain a well-secured condi
tional subsidy of $150,000 in less
than two weeks' time. There is
enough business now in sight for
such a road to make it a better
paying line than any equal ex
tent of railway line in Oregon."
Oregonian, 21.

Mothers And Eebellious Boys.
"Maybe you think," says a bach
elor cynic, "that mothers break
their hearts over children who are
holy terrors. But you are wrong.
As a matter of fact they are proud
of the misdeeds of their small chil
dren. They are proud of terrors.
They are always afraid their chil
dren will be goody-goody milk
sops. Don't you know that a
woman secretly likes a spice ot
wickedness in her offspring that
is, until they grow up. Of course,
she'll spank h4r boy for fighting
with another boy, but she'll spank
him twice as hard if he has been
licked as she will if ho had the
best of it. I believe the tenderest
mother in the world likes to be
rebelled against sometimes. It
shows spirit, and a mother's aw
fully proud of spirited children.
If she was sure her boy would not
get hurt she wduld like to go out
and see him fight another boy.
Ihey're queer things, women.
The proposition that all tho
world loves a lover probably does
not hold good in Jacksonville now,
This whole yellow fever business
is a love affair. McL ormick, the
man who brought the yellow fever
to Jacksonville, is a lover. His
sweetheart was in Tampa, and
Tampa was isolated on account of
yellow fever. But vellow fever
or no yellow fever, McCormick
wanted to see his girl; so he man
aged to pass the cordon and steal
an interview with his love. Then
he came back to Jacksonville and
brought yellow fever with him.
Surgeon-General Hamilton is au
thority for this short history of the
spread of yellow fever. It is an
other confirmation of the wisdom
of the sage who once declared
there was a woman at the bottom
of every mischief.

A good old church deacon in
Michigan who was tempted into
dabbling a bit in wheat picked up
the paper one morning and read:
'A more hellish feeling developed
in the market yesterday." The
editor had written "bullish," but
the good old deacon laid the paper
right down and went to the tele
phone and said'to his breker: "Sell
me out at once for whatever you
can get. I Iiavo been expecting
something like this for a long time,
and I don't propose to have old
Satan walk in on me." Wall

"I saw you again with young
Dndcly, last evening, Miss Smarte.

a convenience to have him with
