While acknowledging the Justice of Olio Astorlan's position that taxation In Clatsop county 1b excessive, there are a few people In the city who, for the purpose of gratifying some personal enmity, are endeavoring to frown down the present movement in the di rection of a reduction of taxes. The wrgument UBed by one of these indi viduals Is that any unfairness is per missible so long as certain property owners are impoverished. It does not matter that men who are admittedly good citlzenB in every particular may also be beggared; it mattea not that the entire city and county be the suf ferers; make the taxes go high that this malignant jealousy con be ap peased, and then perhaps the disgrunt led ones will be satisfied. The Astorl an does not defend tax evasion, and believes that every dollar rightfully due the city for taxes and street Im provements should, and will be collect ed, but because there are a few men who wish to avoid bearing their share of the public burden is a poor reason to advance in support of the stand that the community whole should be made to suffer. In view of Judge McBrlde's recent decision it seems clear that the city's funds can be greatly increased by the collection of the cost of certain street improvements, and in all like lihood the city attorney Is alive to the Munition. A PKOPHET OF EVIL. The Cathlamet aozette naturally feels aggrieved that the days of the river pirate are over. It looks with dis favor on the good feeling which pre vails between the Astoria salmon pack ers and fishermen. It is doubtless sur- prlBed that our packers have been able ti dispense with the "combination," which this season would have poured money into the pocketB of up-river and Washington cannerymen at the expense of the old-established, well- or ganized concerns in Astoria. The Ga zette attempts the roll of the prophet Jeremiah, and deals out disaster in this fashion: "Astoria has been a canneryman's itraveyard for many, and when the season of 1893 Is closed the chances tn o that several more relics will be ad ded to the heap." Our contemporary should refrain from these doleful predictions. If It would visit our busy canneries it would be cured of such misgivings. It would there, see contented fishermen receiving solid gold for their salmon whether trade is dull or otherwise. Instead of the scanty market which the scat tered, canneries on the tipper river pro vide, the flshemen here can take their choice of seven solvent, independent canneries whose label are known and valued in tho world's markets. If As toria, be "the, wuiiu'i'ymun's erave yard" it is an uncommonly lively one just now. A good deal of money has been mode and a good deal lost in salmon packing here, but the business was never on & firmer basis than at For the Next Thirty Daj To meet imperative demands; I will ofler at such low prices on install ments, with easy payments, that piesem. it win add over a million dollars to the wealth of Oregon this year, despite the floo:ny predictions of the Washington shore Cassandra. SETTLER'S RIGHTS. In a public lfclter, Senator Dolph sets at rest, for the present, the expectation that settlers in Clatsop county and eleewhere will ue refunded the excess of J1.25 per aero which they paid on th assumption that they were buying homesteads contiguous to railroad lands. As these lands have since re verted to the public domain, the st tiers are, in equity, entitled to hav tna JJ1.25 per acre refunded. But It seems that equity dees not alway prevail In congress. Senator Dolph says: "Now as to the facts concerning th proposition to refund this $1.25 an acre to settlers who have paid the niaxi mum ratte within forfeited railroad grants. During the Fifty-first congress I Introduced a bill for that purpose At the first session of the Fifty-second congress I secured the report, and re ported from the senate committee on public lands a bill for the purpose. TIi report was authorized bj; a bare ma jority of the. committee, every repub llcan senator on tho committee votin for it and every democratic senator voting against it. I called it up in the senate and secured its passage through tho senate by republican votes alone. every democrat In the senate voting against it. It was sent to the democrat Ic house, and there was smothered and defeated by the democratic major Ity. Let the reader Judge who Is re sponsible for tho defeat of the measure and ' of the prospect for the passage of a bill to refund Ji settlers $1.25 an acre In the near future, with a demo cratic majority in both branches of congress. The tumble in rates which the Great Northern has caused Is appreciated by Astoria merchants. Instead of $3.40 per hundred on first class goods, from New York, they will hence forth pay only $2.48. The Great Northern railway Is well represented on this coast, Col. P. P. Shelby, the general mnager, whose headquarters are at Seattle, unites va ried culture with long experience In railroad management. He left tho Un Ion Pacific td take charge of the Great Northern's Montana division at Helena, where he was popular and successful. He was . transferred to a high position at the head office of the company In St. Paul, whence he was sent to Seattle, where the Great North ern has weighty interests'. Mr. C. Shields, who is superintendent of the western division, is widely known and greatly esteemed by railroad men. He was President Egan's friend and ad viser on the Kansas City road, but has returned to tho Great Northern. He enjoys tho fullest confidence of President Hill, who is a keen Judge of capacity and ability in railroad em ployes. FUNERALS. 15. W.
