FROM A SALEM ALDERMAN.
Tho Ways of the Natives How
Seattlo People Keep up Their
Oouraeo.
Bcattlb, Aug. L2, 1802.
Editor Jeurnal: Tho request
that you made of me to write n
Puget Sound lotterfor the Journal,
la oue thitt I would bo glad to evade,
us I am liable to display au enthus
lasmfor this section of tho country
that will subject .me ton charge of
dlsloyulty'to the "Wlllamotto valley.
They olnlm that this is "God's
couutry," with tho same nirof con
lldence which wo assume when
speaking of Salem and tho valley of
the Willamette, aud tho only course
to pursue, and keep on good terms
with the natives, is to ask them to
concedo that the boundary lines of
of this favored region extend at least
as fur south as the Calipooia
mountains. They will sometimes
concede this much, ut least until
your back is turned, but it is a con
cession which is to bo construed
singly as au aot of courtesy, which
it Is evident they feel should not be
exacted. Tho patronizing way in
which they speak of Salem, and
uven of Portland, and tho evident
sympathy which they feel for peo
ple who have to Jivo there is galling
to the poor Oregoniuu who is polite
enough to stand It. A good many
of them evidently don't know
whether Salem is on a railroad or
uot but most of them huvo heard
of Portland ns a sleepy-going town,
whoso population, according to Por
ter's celebrated census was consider
ably lees than that of Seattle, and
ono which can never hope to rival
this "Queen City of tho Sound"
either In population or In commer
cial Importance. Well informed
business mou'of course do not pre
tend to Ignore the Oregon metropo
lis. Tho gieat majority of tho peo
ple hero, however, have never
crossed the boundary lines of tho
stato of Oregon. They know, little
about Oregon and they care less.
The suggestion that Portland does
now, or ever will, rival Seattle, they
treat as an absurdity. Their faith
in Seattle is sublime and absolute.
They are for Seattle and the Lake
Washington canal first, last and ull
of the time. The Northern Pacific
fixed upon Tucoma,and the Almigh
ty fixed upon Seattlo us the location
forthe upbuilding of a real city, and
backed by a sublime faith that
Providenco is with them this town
has defied tho Northern Puclllo ana
all of tho corporate influence which
It could bring to boar, until it is
now conceded everywhere, except
Tacoma, that Seattlo is, aud is to bo,
tho great city of tho Sound. She
has reached this proud eminence
by reason of her superb location,
and because of tho faith and loyalty
and progressive spirit of her citizens.
They have wasted no time whittling
stovo boxes; squeezing tho Ameri
can engle in their breeches pocket,
uud predicting disaster for any man
or corporation who showed his faith
in their town by investing in pub
lic enterprises, With u population
far less thuu that of Salem today
thoy freely gave hundrods upon
hundreds of thousands of dollars to
cucouruge corporations and men of
capital to Invest their means In local
enterprises that have resulted in
making this a rich and prosperous
city. An nnonymous article recent
ly appeared In a paper published In
u Puclflc coast town of about 15,000
inhabitants, protesting ngulnst Pik
ing the town for vurlous subsidies
aggregating about f 300,000, for n
doon different enterprises whloh
the article named, Including threo
or four radlutiug branch railroads of
15 or 20 miles In length. A man
who Is Interested here', commenting
sarcastically upon this urticle, re
marked that Seiittlo had novur done
business In that way. Every sub
sidy named, If It had related to
Seattle, would huvo been raised be
fore such au article could have been
prepurfd, and the investment would
have been an enormously profitable
ono for the town, Seattle lias the
right of way on uny truck sho
chooses to truvel on, Sho never
starts anywhere without getting
there. If the general goverurnent
don't build the Luke Washington
canal, she will build It herself. Her
Imputation Is made up of recruits
from every section of the Union aud
of the world. It numbers among Us
UuMuwm and professional men th
bralnlwt giudtisles of the education
al uud commercial centres of the
East, There are men fully abreast
of the times, ambitious and full of
faith and energy aud without a
single deubt au to the future of
UmlUd or of tho Mate of Washing
ton, A dWzwiHililp of that kind la

yet they say that tho Great North
