Handley St Haas are our Portland agents and copies of the Astorlan can be had every morning at their stand on First st'eet The tables are turned on the people of Astoria. In place of the stereotyped question "What Is Hammond going to do?" the Inquiry now Is, "What will Astoria do? No man who heard Mr. Hammond' plain anlfl buslnees-llke statement at the subsidy committee meeting yesterday can entertain any shadow of dou'bt as to his Intention and ample ability to place Astoria on tk more than even footing with her envious rivals on the Sound and else where. The responsibility of determin ing when and how It sha'l be done is now shifted from Mr. Hammond's shoulders onto those of the property owners and business men of Astoria. The problem of whether they can get the. railroad this year, or when they can get tt. Or whether they shall get It at all, depends for Its solution sole ly on the enterprise and action of the people of Astoria. The piteous plea that Portland obstructs the building o the road; that the men connected with It are mere go-betweens, without financial ability themselves or relia ble backing, or that they are seeking only to get a foot-hold In order to tie up operations in the Interest of other roads, can no longer be urged. Mr. Hammond has succeeded In rais ing every dollar of money necessary to complete the road. He Is his own principal, and It Is largely his own money that he proposes to spend In the enterprise. In other words, he is fully authorized, thoroughly squlpped, and entirely ready to begin and finish the construction of a railroad from Astoria to Ooble, and now only awaits the assurance of Astoria's ability to perform her part of the contract to go ahead. But how long he can b thus kept on waiting orders Is a ser ious and Impressive question. He pro poses to do business and Insists that the people of Astoria shall also do likewise. It will be their fault, not his, if the large sum of money he has accumulated Is allowed to lie Idle for any length of time, Instead of 'being at once actively employed in giving As toria an outlet to the world. There Is, however, no oocasion for any consider able delay. With the confluence and enthusiasm now manifested on all sides, the subsidy committee has only to strike while the Iron Is hot, and wonders can be accomplished In a week, ten days, or thirty days. If the citizens of Astoria bestir themselves, and each Individual makes It a point to lend whatever of aid and encourage ment Ilea In his power to the efforts of the subsidy committee, the great Columbia grain fleet of the year 1895-6 will load Its cargoes at Astoria's wharves. Bomo Idea of the prosperity that Astoria may reasonably expect to en. Joy Immediately following the com pletion of our transcontinental connec tion Is to be obtained from a reading of the following portion of an able ed itorial In yesterday's Oregonlan: "Dur ing the wheat season now drawing to a close, the superiority of the Colum bla river and the city of Portland ai the export center of the raclflo North weat has fceun fully maintained. In fact, the -proportion of the crops of Oregon, Washington, and Idaho ex ported front this city shows a gratify ing increase over former years. He twei-n $0 and 10$ ships of large average rvglster have been chartered or loaded at this port, as against 30 to 35 sim ilar vessels from Puget Bound." Vh!U Mr. llammondi might tie wll ling to evjnmence the actual work of tjiiu.iiiiH ii." t ftr'y ii... ii a l-rnper guarant ss to the right of way, It should foe rneiribred ttiat the jn-ople of Astoria must bear the ex pmife of procuring the right of way, and It Is safe to say that the first shovelful of dirt thrown, with the ex oitrncnt following Mr. Hammond's J 'live preparations for the work, n i;ll add moo per cent to the sup i ..Til value of every piece of tand re quired for the right of way. :t has been suggested by one who I' ts had considerable experience In the voi of securing railroad rights of v.a;, that the cheapest, most saitlsfac t ii y, and most expeditions method of getting the right of way (between As toria and Gable In shape to turn over t Mr. Hammond, or to Justify the pp.7;ile In giving him a guarantee to g.i ahead with the construction of the rjR'l, pending any necessary condem nation proceedings, is to divide the fifty-eight miles of distance to Goble Into sections or districts small enough to be completely covered by a survey, or's party In one or two days, and then designate a surveyor and agent for ca?h of these districts to go over the entire line simultaneously and take relinquishments, or determine in what cases it will be necessary to sue for condemnations and secure the data re quired therefor. Mr. Hammond's depositor the money In one of tho Astoria banks to take up $75,000 of options on property discon nected from the road he proposes to build to Gable, establishes a commu. nlty of Interest In him with the peo ple of Astoria, and is a most positive guarantee not only that the railroad will be built, but that he foresees a future of magnificent growth and pros perity ahead for the city. A gentleman right fresh from the East said yesterday that there are but two places In the whole United States now offering special Induce ments to the Investment of capital and the right sort of Immigration, and of these two places Astoria is one and the chief. There Is reason to believe that with in three months after the work on ths railroad (begins 6000 people of the best f-lass will be added to Astoria's pop ulation. Astoria will attract more attention in the next twelve monthB than any city In America. CURE FOK HEADACHE. As a remedy for all kinds of headacne Eleotrlo Dltters has proved to be the very best.

Mr. Williams, speaking of the labor expended In bringing the machine that bears his name to dts present parfec. tlon, says: "Some four years ago, when engaged In experimental work on the Wllilams, I was putting In about 16 hours per day of hard work and worry, and came near 'breaking down.
