The Tacoma Ledger says "the
books of a leading shipping mer-
chant of Portland, shows that the
cost TO ship of l076 tons loading
at Portland,' exceeds the necessary
cost to vessel Of the same size
loading at New Tacoma S2,O2S.
In other words it costs t,ro doIIarS
q ton more to load wheat at Port
land than at Tacoma.
To be entirely candid the
Ledgsr should state the whole
truth, and 60 on to show the facts
in the case which are that the cost
of ship of 1916 tons loading at
Astoria, is.far less than the neces-
sary cost to a vessel of the same
size loading at Tacoma, a fact
which has been proved on more
than one occasion.

ASTORIA. OREGON:
The Astoria Railroad.

IL was reported on the streets
yesterday afternoon that a tele.
gram had been received bv the
Astoria chamber of commerce
from Henry Willard, in which that
gentleman declines to allow that
body access to the reports of the
surveys recently made by the en-
gineers between this city and
Forest Grove.
Mr.. Wizards statement that he
would give $4,000 in bonds to
any one contracting to build the
road included the proviso that the
road must be built in accordance
with the plans and specifications
Of his engineers. Declining to al
low "parties of the second part"
access to those plans and specif-
cations would argue lack of SINGER
ity on the part of Mr.. Willard. II
an Astorian were TO tell carpen-
ter 81 will give you $4,000 to
build me a house, in accordance
with certain plans | have" and
Immediately refused to let the
carpenter see the plans in accord
ance with which the house must
be built, the presumption in the
carpenters mind would be that
some one was tilling, and the
trifling party was not the carpen-
ter.
From London comes to us au-
thentic information that on the
10Th of Sept. the construction
bonds of the O. & G., were selling
at sc. So that the $4,000 in
bonds which Mr.. Willard xoys
he will give anyone contracting to
built the railroad from Astoria to
Forest Grove according with his
engineers plans and specifications
are worth about &2S,SO0, in cash.
