pi Site gaftjj storiatt. ASTORIA. OREGON: FKIDAY. JULY 23. 1890 The census figures show that As toria is the first city in Oregon out side bt Multnomah, county, in point of population. The Astoriax suggests that a special meeting ot the chamber of commerce bo held this evening and resolutions regarding the river and harbor bill be passed and telegraphed to "Washing ton, D. C, forthwith. This is an im portant matter and brooks no delay. The city council last Tuesday night did right in buying a new steam fire engine, and their act -was in lino with prudent economy. Astoria needs an other engine; it also needs a new outfit for the hook and ladder team which is necessary to keep up the efficiency of the best volunteer fire de partment on the PaciCc coast. That terrible north coast is starling in early on its dismal record this year. The wonder is that with the safe and smooth entrance to the peaceful har bor of the Columbia hapless mariners are compelled to brave the terrors of fog and rocks to the north. Four vessels in the last four days have thumped and broke on those craggy shores iu an effort to make port; fortunately, so far, there is no loss of life. SriiENTrD telegraphic reports and well filled columns of local news are two principal points which mark the superiority of Tnu Astoijiax as a leading newspaper. It will stand comparison and scrutiny. Added to this is its recoguized reliability, and the fact that its financial standing is beyond question. It makes no idle boasts, and contains no delusive state ments, but moves steadily onward, daily growing in strength and influ ence, and in the increase of its circu lation. Hv the Seattle- Post-Intelligencer, A. MSteele, a Alicliigan lumber man, iuveighs against the lavish and waste ful style of lumbering in this region, and argues further on the assumption that fir forests once cut down, the land upon which they grew will be denuded forever. "Whilehis strictures upon the manner of wasting valuable lumber arc merited. Mr. Steele is mis taken in his assumption thai fir will not grow up again on the land from which the original timber has been cut The vigorous second growth on every hill aud slope disproves thai theory. Tun publication of the ccrrespou dence bolween the United Stales and England, shows, of course, that sccre tary Blaiuo was firm, consistent and dignified in his demands and without being captious, was aud is desirous of upholding to the utmost the position assumed by this county regarding that matter. 1 1 also shows that every one of sense has agreed, to, that neither England nor the United States is silly enough to think of "going to war." Such an idea is ridiculous. The two foremost nations of the world, sisters in speech, and leaders in civilization squabble over a few miserable seals! The no tion is preposterous. NoTirojo better can be done fo ad vance the interests of the city than to organize a stock company and build two steamers of not less than 100 feet in length, and establish a business for them between here and ports up and down the coast. "With a little effort, a great deal of trade between those towns and Portland could be secured for this city. As 200,000 for a railroad sub sidy was easily secured here in twenty four hours, surely 50,000 or 75,000 could be raised for two steamers, and they would bring business here, would result in the establishment of one or two wholesale houses, and thus hasten the advent of a railroad. Give a subsidy to any railroad which will build here first, as that is all that is required. After one road comes, the other two will be forced to come lo compete for business. There is really but little to induce a railroad to come here, for all three main lines are at Portland, and there they secure the trade, much of which would bo here sent lo, aud received from, ocean vessels if we had a rail road. "We want one lino built, and should center all our energies, backed by the strong influence of the ship ping trade, to secure that line, then the immense wheat aud miscellaneous trade of the Willamette valley would here meet vessels, and immediately the other two fines would build here, and Astoria would rapidly come into prominence. "It this thing keeps on,' says a New York map-printer the other day, "we'll all have to go into bankruptcy. Wo hadn't got our United Stales maps ixed up with north and South Dakota before the Brazil revolution knocked Soth America endwise, and now "Wyoming and Idaho are turning into stales. Africa has to be fixed over eray six months, and the latest and Sftost serious change of all is in this German-English arrangement to kaock out Heligoland from the British Empire. That isn't a big change, but it is plenty big enough to spoil all our awps o Europe. It would almost pay tbe asp-makers of the world to chip Msadbnytbe nasty littlo island in order to make a present of it to Sagtand, and save the espouse of get tmg p new maps of Europe." YwraotDAY tiro proposition was broaefeed to have the merchants and TwiniBMn men agree to give for three ytws aU their freight business to the tCEKsss3sccsE:is:saEccEaE:EE As Laid out by h. ROBB & FAHKER, General Agents, - - first railroad which will build here. The idea is that as the Northern Paci fic is within about GO miles they might bo induced to come here on such an offer, wliich is really better than a subsidy. While the plan appears favorable at first thonght, it will bear investigation. It would virtually keep out the other two main linos for that time, and would also in the matter of rates aud fares place us entirely at the mercy of the one road, who could charge what they pleased, as there would be no competing line to keep down rates. is Consumption Incurable?
