NO BETTER INVESTMENT 13 THE COUNTY i LOTS SOLD ON THE INSTALLMENT PLAN ;: THE FJLCIFIC KELSX ESX&TE v?5" General Agents. sgmiauoceeagBaBi 32 $ E "8 Ossgok Crxr papers are agitating the matter of having the corporate limits of the city extended so as to in clude the Canemah and Green Point additions. They claim that the ealth of the city would be increased and the rate of taxation lowered. Tex thousand eight-page folders ooataining a write-up of Eugene City are now being distributed by the en terprising Board of Trade of that city. The Board of Trade of this city is doing something in this line, but would it not be better to do still more? There should be a supply of literature descriptive of Astoria and Clatsop county's great advantages kept on hand, and every one who leaves the city for those points from whence comes immigration, should bo given a supply to distribute where it will do the most good. Nothing better could be desired for the welfare of Astoria than the news oir the local page contained in the brief dispatch is true. Immediate re sumption of work on the railroad and its completion to a connection with through lines, means a brighter day for this city and marks tho commence ment of a successful era far beyond any which Astoria has over seen. It insures growth, prosperity, an increase of business, and the opening up of this port to the proud position to which by nature it is intended, but which it never can reach without tho construction of a through rail road. AS USUAL. "irioi Don't Seal tie 'ColuiMan' Yon Don't Gel tie Hews, " JL VERY FEW COMTAJtlSOXS. Yesterday morning the callow youth who tries to edit the Columbian thought he made a brilliant point in his squib headed "As Usual," where he tried to make a mountain out of a molehill. Just to please the child, let usr" suppose he scored a point. Now for the other side of tho case. In the same issue of that paper on the fourth page was an article in ref erence to the Belgians trying to civil ise Africa, which was printed in The Astoeiax of the 20th, just three days before. In tho same column was an item concerning the old whistling buoy on" the Main street dock. That was pub lished in The Astobtan of the 21st, or two days before. That same day we gave nearly a full column of the cruise of the Manzanita, which was not seen in the columns of the Colum bian. Yesterday's issue of the Second street organ failed to have a word about the sale of 4,000 acres of timber land in this county, for which $11,000 was paid to 25 residents of this city, yet it was given in full :i these col umns. This paper, also, had yesterday morning, full particulars of tho rail road move towards Frankfort, of which the boy seemed to be oblivious. "We gave a full account of the now church at Knappa, of which the youth had but a few hues. His geographical knowledge is very limited or ma brain (what J'ttle there is of it) must be turned, for in yester day's paper, in the second column on the fourth page, he speaks of hay on Second street as extending "east and west from the sidewalk to the street car line, and north and south from Thompson & Boss1 to Thatcher & Howell's." Buy a compass, young man. 'Almost every day The AstobiAn has important local news which is not found in tho Second street jour nal, but we never refer to it, for it Bounds childish, yet if the callow youth has a single item which is not found in this paper, he brags about it like a little child over the possession of one toy more than his fellows. "What is published in The Astoman is all the reliable news and the people know it, but they look with suspioion on the windy articles in the Prevari cator. If the publisher of the Culum iaator tried as hard to tell the truth sad five the news of the day -as he tJoee'ionnd something to growl at in The Astorian, he would show more aeose and publish a better paper. Some people, however, will live and learn, and die fools at last "If you do read the Columbian, you don't get the news." ADVICE TO MOTHKBS.
