Piano Tuning. Parties desiring
pianos tuned should call on Prof. D, Van
Horn, the old and leliable tuner. Prof.
Van Horn itas tuned pianos tin Albany for

quired first by years of experience in a
pianoforte factory. He has no equal in
the valley. Leave orders at Will & Link's,
and do r.'ot buy a piano or organ without
consulting him, thus being sure of secur
ing only hrst-class instruments .

ASTORIA BY THE SEA.
The lnillng Seaport f the N. w.
Astoria has no equal north of San
Francisco. The splendid work accom
plished by the Ft. Stevens jetty has given
a safe entrance to the river and now at
extreme low tide, there is Iwenty-seven
feet of water on the Columbia bar, and
even tills Is becoming deeper as the jetty
extends farther out to sea. The distance
from sea In to the harbor limits of Astoria
is but 10 milts, vi that lhccot of bringing
a vessel in from sea is less than at any
other port on the co.ut.
rollouing is i he present towage rates
and distances from sea of the six principal
seaports of the coast :
Port. Dist. from sea. Towage in and out
Astoria 10 miles $200
San Francisco... 10 380
Port TownM.-nd.iun " 300
Portland 119 ' 500
Seattle 145 " 41x3
TVcoma 173 " 600
The rales above given are for a i,3co
ton vessel and are taken from the publish
ed tariff of the tug boat companies. It Is
Impossible for a vessel to go above Asto
ria loaded to full capacity on account of
the numerous bars in the river, and the
wheat ships that are chartered in Portland
are compelled to take part of their cargo
aboard from lighters at Astoria. All this
extra handiir.g is avoided by loading the
vessels at Astoria,aud witli the erection of
elevators at Astoria, which will be accom
plished inside of one year, the inland tow
aSe lig'iterage and pilotage that now bur.
dens the commerce of the Columbia river
w ill be done away with.
The deadly teredo which causes the de.
structlon ci such a vast amount of wharf
and boat prope'.ty on Puget Sound, is un
known In Astoria, and in tha fresh waters
of the bay, barnaclts, moss and other im
pediments which foul the bottoms of ves
sels while on a long sea voyage, speedily
become detached leaving the hull as clean
as though It had been In a dry dock. This
advantage is noticeable in the fact that
vessels from the Columbia river make the
run to Liverpool and Queenstown on an
average of from ten to thirty days less
time than irom any other coast port.
A man requires but a limited amount of
knowledge pertaining to Western geogra.
phy to enable him to understand why
Astoria will ultimately become a great and
important .city. Cast a billet of wood
adrift in the Columbia river far up beyond
the Okanagon country, on the line of the
British possessions , and it will immediately
begin a journey unaided by naught but
nature, past that region of undeveloped
wealth in the Colville district, past the
Immense wheat fields of the Big Bend
countiy,on down through the rich Yakima
reservation to Pasco, thence through the
great cattle region ot Eastern Oregon,
down through the narrow gorge whlcl
confines the mighty current of theColum
bia at the Cascades, past the fertile farms
and dairy ranohes of the Willamette river
and lower Columbia, until at last its on
ward course is checked by the flood tide
sweeping in from the Pacific at Astoria,
the natural 6caport for all the immense
region traversed by this
magnificent commercial highway,
the Columbia river. But it is not the
river alone from which Astoria's future
greatness is insured Start a car rolling

tiarciscu vj mc nrcr snu tne law 01 grav
uMiiuu win unng mai car sown 10 the sea
level at Astoria with the least possible ex.
pendlture of artificial force. That earden
spot of the Westei n world, the rich and
fertile Willamette Valley, is tributary to
Astoria for the same natural reasons. The
vast region bounded by the Rocky moun

north and California and Nevada on the
soutn, nnds but one natural and easy out
let to tide water and that is by followini
the Columbia throush the heart of th
Cascade mountains thence on dnwn tn A

Astoria is the larcest cltv in tha United
States without any R. R. connections, and
at the same time combines a first-class
seaoort with unexcelled river navigation
