A nlan to secure transcontinental railroad connection has finally been de cided upon by the property owneis, wiiu have been discussing ways and means to accomplish the much-to-be -dettred object. About fifty of the largest own era of realty attended the first meeting, which took place In the chamber of commerce rooms. Dr. Alfred Kinney in the chair, and B. Aran Dusen, ivre tary. It was decided to make a united effort to secure the immediate con structinn of a railroad to transcontl r.enU;! connection.

An engineer has been enga&ed to I,-.-cate the right of way around the friri from John Day's to Smith's Point. The sub-committees . will call upor the people for deeds, ad It is hopcO that all peraons that can contribute will pet promptly. The committee desires to close a con tract and have work commenced Im mediately after Uie Holidays. The co-operation of the press unl the citizens of the county Is eai neatly so licited. The following is the form of deed . which has been drawn up: Know all men by these presents: That we, in consideration of one dollar, ano other valuable considerations, to us paid, do grant, bargain, sell and conve) unto the Astoria Savings bank, of As toiila, Oregon, trustee, l'i successor, and assigns forever, the following ue feribed real estate, to-wit.: tugether with the tenements, heredita ments and appurtenances thereto be longing, or in anywise appertaining.

M, um properly ovneri were lied down ;o diMling with th.i iHinon wiiy, to ,i,e oxi.iii.siin, as jt happened, of one or two others who ex- pressed themselves as willing, and wi: were certainly able, to build the road Several' parties have recently asked about the possibility of raising a sub sidy, and the property owners finally decided to devise a plan by which a subsidy could be raised so as to be open to all. At the Initial meeting, which was held cn the 9th Inst., the manner of raising a subsidy which might be In such shape as not to confine the dealings of the subsidy trustees to any one pariy, was freely discussed. The result was a decision that the chairman or the meeting should appoint a com mlttee of twenty-one to represent all interests a committee the personnel ot which would be such that no dissalis- taetion could arise, and one In whom the confidence of the public general! would be placed. r IT t-v. - ii. j-age, r. j. Taylor, J. O. A Bowlby, and C. H. Thomson were an pointed a committee to draw up a form of deed. These gentlemen carefully went over the entire ground, considered all circumstances then existing and likely to arise, and the result was the draft ing of n form .of deed which they onsm-r will be acceptable alike to the subscriber to the subsidy, and to those with whom the latter may have to deal The object of the committee Is to raise i subsidy of such nUt-actlve propor tions that attention can be compelled in money centers, and to satltfy all parties the road will be built both to Astoria and to Flavel or a point near there. No time will be lost In securing the ight of way along the water front. and the signatures to the petition to the government for permission to cross Young's Bay. Mr. Kennedy, than whom no more reliable engineer Is to be found, has generously come forward with an offer to survey, gratuitously, the water front and make the necessary map, and has also taken in hand the preparation of the plans for the bridge; nd it is rightly considered that his work will be accepted without quesiion by any railroad men in the country or in the world. A blue print of the wa er front will be completed by Mr. Kaymond today, and can be seen dur ing the afternoon at the Real Estate Exchange. The bridge plan will be fin ned in the course of three or four days. At the present time Inquiries come from three sources, asking for informa tion about a railroad subsidy, and one of the parties Is now on the way here. second will be on hand about the lime the subsidy Is raised, and still a third, from whom a letter was received Wednesday last, will be on hand be fore New Year's. The property owners can now con atulate themselves, for the first time, on being on a thoroughly business footing, and it will be strange If, be ore the close of the year about to dawn, Astoria does not have transcon tlnental railroad connection.
