v yisi "k ff x' - ' W fhc JtoUtj SUoriun, ASTORIA. OREGON: THUKSDAY.... -MAY 1.1800 City ami County Official Paper. .1 m'SlXKSti PJtOPOSlTIOX. Tnoroii C F. Huntington has not yet made an railroad proposition to Astoria, wo have his word for it that he will We ;ilso are conversant with the principal clause iu that proposi tion when it will be made. It is this. Astoria, in addition to all that it now possesses in railroad property, will be akcd to give Mr. Huntington and his associates 200,000. This amount is to be given :is a benus: just so much, .without any stock or anything else in similar form received therefor. It is this .simple business proposi preposi propesi tion: is it worth what is asked to get what is offered? That's all there is to it That is the question for Astoria to answer. ONE PRICE. Bemoval Sale! imUHIIIHMIHIIIUnillllHHHHIIIIIIIIII Goods Sold Regardless of Cost ! To discuss it is needless. The ques tion should receive prompt answer in the affirmative The day that Itfr. Hsprojwsition is received here should not see the sun go down with that amount unpledged. This is a mnlter of vital importance. A little plain talk is in order. A city without a railroad is side-tracked. It is useless to disguise the fact that the drift is to the Sound. Five years ago in comnarin with the Sound we were ahead. To-day we are afoot. We must have transcontinental railroad connection or fall further behind. If we are content to live our lives in a ieaceful village let us determine on that idyllic life. But it we want to amount to anything :ts a city we muni meet requisite conditions. As a business proposition Tin: Astoiuax favors the raising or the S20D,000. It will return to us a hundred times over. It is not a "gifl"' it is an investment; a profitable oppor tunity. There arc halt a dozen men who will read this this morning who could pledge the $200,000 by noon, and in thirty days would have made half a million by the rise in their holdings that such pledge would produce. To argue in favor of the proposition is like arguing that water is wet, or that food is necessary. The thing needs no argument. It is self-evident. That is :i commendable idea to have the houses of ihjs city numbered, but i TnnAsToniAN which is progressive in most things, has the old fashioned idea which it ha ofien advocated, that the only proper way to number houses is the Philadelphia way allot 100 to each block. Tt simplifies things so. Tins is the day when lhe trade laborers of the world go on a strike. The movement is a universal one. In Belgium even the judges of the courts have struck, and say it the govern ment doesn't raise their salaries they will render no more decision5?. Actions always speak louder than words. As evincing the energy of Hie Having leased for a long term of years the corner store of Young's new building on the corner of Third and West Ninth in this city, it becomes necessary for me to move my stock and fixtures from present location, and to avoid as little trouble and waste of time as pos sible I olfer my well selected stock of Men's and Boy's Clothing, Gent's Furn ishing Goods, Hats, Caps, Trunks, Valises, Umbrellas, Blank ets. Quilts, Etc., REGARDLESS OF COST, until my removal to the new location, where 1 shall continue to conduct business as I have for the past tin ce years buying goods from the manufacturers and selling them under a low expense for CASH and at OXE PRICE to all alike, every day in the year. EXCEPT SUNDAYS AND HOLIDAYS. Settling hi this city over six years ago, where I found a very healthy climate and good natural advantages, etc., I concluded three years ago to open business in in-line on my own account, with the intention, if possible, to give no one an excuse to take or send money out of Astoria to build up any other city in preference. And as I Have Succeeded in Building up a Good Business, and am Here to Stay. J. H. MANSELL, BROKER, NOTARY PUBLIC FOR STATE OF OREGON.
