In a Letter in Yesterday's Oregonlan He Points Out the Inconsist encies of Portland's Position. PORTLAND. Nov. ll-(To the Ed itorsMy lHter contained in your" is sue of November 4 is confined to the consideration of a transportation orob lem. It shows that the presidents of two transcontinental railroads have conceded the merit of our contention and were willing to extend common rates to Astoria and to the mouth of the Columbia river. In the last para graph of that letter are to be found questions regarding our claim, that are directed to the management of our only remaining transcontinental railroad. These questions are as follows: Would it not be for the Interest of Oregon generally, and to the western portion particularly, if common rates be extended to the mouth of the Colum bia river? Are not the rates now charged by the railroad companies suf ficiently liberal to Justify the delivery of our products at the cheapest ocean port without any additional compensa tion? Are not the views of the Ore gonian, Mr. Huntington. Mr. Mellen and Mr. Hill more progressive and more to the interests of the people of Oregon. by affording cheaper export facilities, than are the views of those respected citizens of Portland, who. through1 ap prehension that their Individual inter ests may be Jeopardized, seemingly op pose all extension and enlargement of our commerce, if conducted upon new lines not heretofore followed? These are primarily transportation questions, and must not be dodged, evad ed, suppressed or obscured by the in jection of other extraneous matter. Though hardly Incumbent, I reply In a general way, only, to correspondents. They must not entertain an opinion that the builders of the Astoria road are complaining or offering apologies for Its existence. We have no complaint to make nor apology to offer. My allusion to editorials contained in the Oregonlan, to the resolution passed by the Port land chamber of commerce, and to opinions of Mr. Huntington, Mr. Mellen and Mr. Hill was merely for the pur pose of giving answer to co-ordinate subject matter, which has been Improp erly Injected. According to Mr. Hughes, the aforesaid editorials, resolution and opinions do not count for much. The chamber may expunge the said reso lution, which was paffied at a special meeting composed of 214 members, but It cannot wipe out the Astoria road It is here to stay. Its builders did not depend upon town lots of Astoria, Port- Fisher's Opera House L. E. SELIG, Leasee and Manager. TWO PERFORMANCES. aturday Matinee and High! NOVEMBER 17, 1900 land or elsewhere to furnish the needed capital for its construction. We do know that Mr. Huntington extended the Central Facinc railroad from Its ord inal terminus at Sacramento to the ocean at San Francisco, and the Chesa peake Ohio railroad from its original terminus at Richmond to the ocean at Newport News. Dtes anyone question his wisdom In doing so? We do know that Mr. Mellen's views accord with a policy that has extended a common point to the entire west coast of Wash ingtonIncreasing the commerce of Puget sound 12M per cent, while that of Portland has remained almost sta tionary. We do know that Mr. Hill Is building two S4.000-ton ships not 2T.0UW. as stated In my letter and that his company in every way favors the deep water ports of Puget Sound in compe tition with the Columbia river. How clear and convincing is the ar gument of a prominent member of the chamber ot commerce and the port of Portland, which shows that Portland, among her past sins of commission, had forced a ruinous policy upon the O. R. & N. Co. by breaking the Joint lease, "which would have given Portland on disputed control of the Northwest, as well as the Oriental trade, and left the Sound without a Tacoma. and probably without a Seattle." Will not the refusal of the O. R. & N". Co. to extend com mon rates to Astoria still further con tribute to the growth of Puget sound ports to the detriment of Portland and the whole Columbia river valley? The following quotations are familiar at least to all members of the 1S94 chamber of commerce; they are as true and sufficient today as they were when uttered. They are suggested as appro priate answers to friendly correspon dents: "We shall have the Columb'a River railroad to Astoria, which will place pur railway 'common point at the sea board." "The advantage of the gate way of the Columbia river over every other route frm the Interior to the coast never will be fully asserted and established till a railroad be built along the river from Portland ta Astoria, so that the doctrine of 'common point' may be made to tell In our favor with all Us proper force." "Though vessels may come, and do come, to Portland, yet Portland is not on the seaboard. Till the 'common point' for our great route of commerce, the point In com mon recognized by the railways, shall be actually at the tea, we shall not get the full advantages of our position." "Thl& Is not a Portland scheme, nor an AMorla scheme, but an Oregon ! scheme." Let Portland deepen her channel to any depth she may dt-slre, but lt lot her citizens needlessly antagonize the producer and unwisely retard the state's growth by supporting and ad vocating the policy pursued by the on ly transportation company now oppos ing the extension of common rates to the mouth of the river.

South PoMon. view ttu curio, and. if able, tell the story it life. It ii a remarkable specimen. The pre servtln of every part Is rlawlesa. It Is :h form of a well built, athletic man, some thlrty-flve or forty years of age, apparently, at the time of death. Kx pt rts say that It Is probably not the body of n Indian, as the feature and ;he feot are not those of the American red man. It res-mlU more the re mains of a white man, but whether be nnteceded thi Indian or not can hardly be determined without an examination of the strata In which the body was found. A Herald representative viewed "the man of stone" and then hurried out to Cambridge, whers he found Professor (lordon, of the Peabody Museum, ready to li;en to the story of the curio and to accompany the newspaperman for an examination ot the fosalt. Protewior Ciordon ha recently returned from Honduras, where for the last nine months he has been making ethnologi cal nd archaeological Investigation, His opinion as an expert Is reliable. "No. It la not fake," said the pro fessor. In reply to a question. "It la easily demonstrable that It Is a true fossil. Furthermore, It's the only fossil of It kind ever found. The thing re minds me more than anything else of the casts which they ore getting out of Pcrrpeii. This specimen Is similar to thse from the buried city. The only ('Ifference Is that the mulus of the bod ies farmed by the hardened lava In Pol, pell are being tilled by plaster of ri.ris to make the casts, while here na ture performed the whole process. "It Is Impossible to tell offhand what Is the ag; of the fossil. That could only be leariieu by a careful study of the :"-atA, from which It was dug. Hun dreds of years and this Is quite proba ,ble the fossil is very. Very old. In that case this specimen might have great value In determining the predecessors of the Indians on this continent." The professor paused to examine one of the feet, both of which were bniken off Just above the ankle when the body was being exhumed. "Now. you see," he continued, "you can scarcely distinguish the location of the bones of the leg. This would In dicate that complete decomposition had taken place before petrescenoe was ac complished. This fact seems to prove that it was a long process, and to ar gue for the extreme age of the fossil. However, as I said, nothing absolute can be determined until a careful study of the surrounding strata has been made." Professor Gordon would not hazard a guess on the age of the thing, but ad mitted that might be a thousand years old. and possibly much more. He de clared that It wis not the body of an Indian, but resembled more that of a whit? mar. The features he pronounc ed well formed and regular, with a high brow. Indicating good Intellect. He ieem-d Inclined to the opinion that the feet were those of a man who had worn shoes, or at least sandals or moccasins of some sort. The Nevada State Journal, the local paper of Keno, gives this explanation of the formation of the fossil, which is practically the correct one: 'The stone man wps found in Spring Gulch, about three miles north of Rerto, In a two foot seam of clay, with gravel above and btlw It. The body was found on the outer curve of the gulch. opposite where an ancient stream had cut to bedrock. It la undoubtedly I he fiuutil ot ft man drowned In an old lake. The body became Imbedded In the mud at the bottom, which hardened a the water receded, and left ftn exact lm P reus Km ot the body which Inter decom posed and vanlnhed In git. Subse quently this cltty mould wtu fllKd with the dcpoaltlona of a stream which Inter flowed over the place." The body was petrified while lying In a retdful pose, the left side uppermost.1 The right hand reata illy Just over the heart, while the left Iks on the left thigh.
