McCormicfc Shot fflrongi ana TMi Witt a Rifle 7tY IT1S OW-V CARELESSNESS. Last Tuesday, af tor W. E. McCor mick had finished his day's work in tho logging camp on tho Lewis and Clarke he started homo to bis ranch, and whilo on the "way ho discovered elk signs. He then went back to tell his brother that he was going down to Dan Ingalls' place to borrow a gun. He then went to Ingalls', and got the gun of Mrs. Ingalls, who also gave him some cartridges. Mc Cormick stood in the kitchen and put on the cartridge belt. Mrs. Ingalls handed him some cartridges and he leaned the rifle against his left side while he put the cartridges in the belt The gun was supposed to bo empty and the children wore playing about the floor without a suspicion of danger, when there was a terrifying explosion and McCormick with a smothered exclamation staggered into the dining room and fell dead near the front door, about twenty feet from where he was standing. This was between 6 and 7 o'clock in the evening. Examination showed that tho ball from a ballard 40-GO had entored his left side a littlo below tho heart, rang ing upward and coming out closo to tho spine, between tho shoulder blades. After passing through tho unfortunate man's body tho ball lodged in tho roof of the house.

Yesterday there were filed with tho recorder four documents' each giving a power of jittornoy to sell land as follews: C. Bassmuasen to B. F.

Packard for land in section 19, town ship 5 north, range 7 west t M. D. Staples to ,B. F. Paokard, genoral power of attorney. Tillamook County. The indebtedness of this connty, all. told, is estimated at twenty thousand dollars. Thoro is about eight thousand dollars in delinquent taxos yet unpaid. If tho taxes aro collected fully, and the county is judi cious in its expenditures, tho indebted ness can be greatly xeduced in tho next few years without raising tho rates of taxation. Tho court houso ia now bnilt and most of tho heavy ex pense in road building is past and there is no need of any great expendi ture for some time to oomo. Of course, there will be considerable expense every year in keeping up roads, otc, but not necessarily so heavy as has been. Tho county is fast sottling up and more titles to land aro being ac quired every day, and this will enable the county to increase the revenue without increasing the rato of tax ation.

Spokaxe F.Uiis, Wash., Sept. 13. Editor Asteriak: Tho most noticeable feature of my present trip through this section is the increased kuowledgo I find regard ing Astoria. Everybody now knows where Astoria is, and a good many in quiries are made about it, particularly its railroad prospects. The next noticeable feature is the manifest fact that Yashington is ahead of Oregon; not in wealth or natural resources, bnfc in enterprise and growth. The reason is plain. Oregon clings to that cast iron policy that makes it n crime to own property and places a penally on the possession of money. Washington welcomes in coming coin, makes it easy to invest capital and induces people to send money into the state. Tho result is that capital .is flowing into this state, even from " Oregon, and is finding p'rofitable investment. The remedy is tho repeal of the fool law that taxes mortgages and that en courages fraud by allowing the ex emption of alleged "indebtedness.'' Ileal estate is held at high figures hero. After, riding over the place, and for ten miles on each side, it seems to mo that the only thing that makes real estate change hands at such high figures is that people aro willing to pay those prices. A thing is -always worth wkat it will sell for, and if Spo kane lots bring S1,000 a foot, that is evidently what it is worth. "When asked upon what they base their claims, Spokanites cite numer ous advantages, and first in the list mention the fact that seven railroads center here. Had Astoria one trans continental railroad, it would soon have two more, and lots in tho area bounded by the western city limits, tho Columbia river, west Sixth street and Summit avenue would be worth from S300 to S1,000 a front foot, also. A town without a railroad isn't in it, and nothing elso can supply tho de ficiency. I attended a meeting of tho Spo kane citv council last night "With tho exception that thero was no dis cussion about tho roadway, and that only one councilman spoke at a time, it was a good deal liko our council meetings tho same talk about street grades, and fire matters, and the efforts of sundry corporations to get more than their franchises entitled them to. Here, when they open or improvo a street, tho property on each side is assessed in proportion to its assessed value on tho city tax roll. Two men, for instance, each own a lot on the line of the street One lot is in the business portion, and is assessed at 25,000; tho other is further out, and is rated at S2.500. For tho first the owner is assessed ten times a3 much as the second for the same amount of worKi Spokanites claim that is fair, but admit that a still better way would be to keep up the streete bv general taxation. I have met a good many Astoriaus here. They are all doing well. D. A. Mcintosh is one of the lending citizens. has largo holdings of real estate which nave already made him wealthy, and will make him still more so. If thero aro any croakers or pull backs here I haven't seen them. Ev erybody talks for tho town. They have organized a fine social clnb hero and entertain visitors purely as a mat ter of business. Tho cook of tho Spo kane club was Cleveland's chef when his accidency occupied tho White house, and the club is justly proud of its cuisine. The place, as laid cut, is about tho size of Chicago. It isn't all built up yet, however; the city claims a popu lation of 27,000, and has ve'ry good ap parent reason for claiming &),000 in side of twq years. Just why it is that new cities spring up from nothing to 25,000 and 30,000 in a few years, while older and better situated places grow so slowly, is worth considering. In this connec tion it is also noticoable that all the rail road building north of San Francisco ii in Washington, the state that does not driyo capital away by short sight ed legislation, perpetuated by the folly of the Willamette valley coun ties. Astoria ha3 more resources aud better situation than this place, and under more favorablo conditions will grow as fast as this bustling city. Just when Hint era shall begin de pends largely upon ourselves. Wo havo. tho prestige of location and natural advantage, but lack one or two other -elements that in this regard go to make municipal success. Astoria has to-day inoro advantages than any other point in the northwest This ia conceded by all who havo given the subject impartial investiga tion. "Why then," it may bo asked, "is it that tho railroad companies are spending so much money and making so much extraordinary effort in build ing lines of railroads to new and un known points on the Washington coast?" I believe that tho reason is this: Tho railroad companies, find more present profit in acquiring title to large tracts of land and then by trending that way and creating value by their approaching tracks, dispos ing of tho land at an advance. They now adopt this plan in Washington. An emissary of the railroad seenres an option on several adjacent tracts. Shortly after it is announced that to a point which is surrounded by these tracts tho road will bo built The land is put on the market and the resultant profit at big figures forms an immediate source of income to the company. This, I believe, is the reason that the N. P., U. P., and tho other lines are now building to tho soveral points designated. They can make more money by creating now towns in which they own everything, site and all, than by acquiring property where they would have to pay, oven approx imately, what it is worth. Tho application, in our case, if my idea is correct, is plain. To secure transcontinental railroad connection Astorians must part with a portion of their holdings to make tho remainder ten times more valuable than the whole would be without a railroad. The rapid and permanent rise in real estate values in cities that have adopted this plan should effectually show the financial wisdom of such municipal policy. J. F. H.
