WHt D0E3V T HAMMONO EXTKNDBD TO NEHALHM. W. S. Rf-ld Thinks Amoria CannK Orwir Very Fa Without a Railroad Into the vulley. PORTLAND, Aug. 7.-EiHtor Asfrtan: Tie grwwinar of cities depend, largely vpon the IndlvH.ul enerr.les of the cn emigre of the community 00-openulng feather, t.ven wh:rt nauira! advuniires are mCiim: th-tn. as, witness the growth of Portland In Its early da. But whfn we add to this the extra natural resour ces In and surrounding Astoria, why la K that even with rran-cantl.iental raUway-i-onoalion he moves so slowly. Trom experif n. e of A.or!a I can answer this question. It is becatise of lack of ci:r,-ratl n and ' un&ed action of '.W pi Jaiplng agnlnt hope that srne Vi.'larJ will apiwar ai d place As ttrtu, as be did Portland, uixin th. pinnacle of progress. That la why As toria people hope-1 that Mr. A. B. Ham. mond, after he built your railroad, As toria to Coble. wO'xd follow with his ymlkjrte in building up everything else to nuke Astoria a large city. Wl;r I caiaa: h;'.p tWrkfrr trt were Mr. HamTrsjnd at the small ex. penoe of t3TS3 to build 'i mile from his CUwop CT:y Jun.-tlon to the Neha. 'm. aikUng that small sum to tbe thr million of dollars he 'el's me be has alrtady spent for A-t'ria s benell:, he would with that extension alon. yield thr.-e times his railway's present revenue, and doable In a few year th. pufmUoioa of Aflturia. l'et remember he and Ms syndicate have don. all they agreed to do and rellgt usly performed their contnvM and there Is no obligation i-pon blm to do more. k Is true as Mr. Hammond say. that the Xehulem timber resource wJU alone, if deveSmied. douMe 8h potation of your caiy. and K is also true, as' th. fl'.es of ih As:or;an con testify In 1W and 1SU. tht I es-peoiiily urged to the liOard of dirvctors of the A. & 8. C. ra'J y that th?lr co-operation in taking their railroad to the Xehalem river would, add three drnea the wealth to Astoria that a dlres: line Into Portland would do via the Columbia river. To say that Astoria can load 11' to H shtis at one time w.':h lu.nh-r as Port Blakely now Joes without rhe Xehalem valley Is aosoa lifte'.y IrrpofWe, and K seems ooolish for any iier-on to make that assertion, I hold th' wlthon a railroed to Xeha. k-m the city of Astoria wl'.l remain as she Is now, or at the best carry oat th Dutchnan's motto of moving an Inch an hour. But give Astoria Ihe local raiL v ay.' ett!ir via Votings river or up the Lewis and Clarke, as an lndepsnd.-nt railroad company direct inoo Astoria tiuilt Is to say If 31 r. Hammond Is not to connect the Xehalem with his own seaside line at Clutvop junction (for no third ixirty wviuld build to 'the latter and let Mr. Hammond divide the transporia Hon business with him and pay terminal facilities to cross his railroad brlilge, and I fiKirsiivtee that in a very few years Astoria will have a larger export and foreign trade than Port Btakely has to day, and the same facilities and rates per railroad to eastern and western slates as Seattle. How are we to get that XeKilern railway you will ask? By co.op-ritlon of the people of Astoriti, alone In uniting upon one route and back ing some cttpaJist who iwill build It for rhem. But Is this co.opera.t1on ps:.Me? I tan hardly believe It. Why? Because already although I have over IIOO.OHO of my money Invested In the old grade be. yond CUt sop City.
