noise.

A MEMORIAL TO CONGRESS-
From the Astoria Chamber Of Commerce.

At a recent meeting of the Astoria
chamber of commerce the following me-
mortal was ordered sent to Congressman
George to be laid before the house of rep
resentatives:
To the Honorable the Senate aud House Of
Representatives, Of the United States Of
Americd an Congress assembled:
Your memorialists, the Astoria cham
Der of commerce of Astoria, Oregon, re-
spectfully represent TO your honorable
body:
That the very large and rapidly increas-
ing business of both passenger and freight
traffic, by steamships and sailing vessels,
between the Columbia river and other
ports Of the world, demands that the life
saving service at the mouth of the Co
lumbia river and along the Pacific coast
be increased to meet the requirements of
the increasing commerce, and that full
crews be maintained throughout the en-
tire year at the more important stations,
including the mouth of said Columbia
river.
That the life-saving station nOw at the
mouth of the Columbia river Is manned
by crew during portion of said year
only for the reason that the appropria-
tiOns heretofore made by congress for the
support and maintenance of the life-say-
ing service have been insufficient TO allow
of a crew being kept more than six
months of each year.
Therefore, your memorialists pray that
your honorable body will make addi-
tional and adequate appropriations for
increasing the number of hfe-saving sta
tions on the Pacific coast, and for the
keeping of crews at the more important
stations: and as In duty bound your me
morialistS will ever pray. etc.

OREGON TEANsCoNTNENTAL.-A special
dispatch from New York to the Pioneer
Press SAYS: 1t is stated on excellent au-
thority that, although the matter has not
been officially announced by the direc-
tors, the report that the next Oregon
Transcontinental dividend will be passed
is probably true. If not passed the divi-
dend will be reduced. The officers of the
company refuse TO talk on the subject,
which lends weight TO the assertion.
Ii is accepted as a fact on the
street, and is in great part the cause of
the heavy decline in the Willard proper
ties. This has been used by the shorts TO
extricate themselves from tight pinch.
The mystery surrounding the Willard
properties Is as great as ever, and must
be removed, to some extent, at least, be-
fore any degree of confidence can he re-
stored.-OreQ0nidn

Something for AstOrIs to ThIat or.

The secretary read a letter from r.
Peterson of Gray's harbor, calling atten-
ton to the lack of transportation facili-
ties between Portland and that section,
and suggesting that the trade of Pacific
and Chehalis counties is well worth the
attempt of merchants. in this connec-
ton il was stated that recent incorpor-
alton proposed 10 build narrow gauge
railroad from Ilwaco, and to place steam
ers on Shoalwater bay and Gray's harbor.
Now that steam connection by sea is sus-
pended for the winter, the necessity of
land service is keenly felt. Members of
the board exhibited much interest. and
expressed their willingness to assist the
corporation by taking stOck.-Porfldnd
