In Portland it is a foregone conclu-
sion that Astoria is to have a railroad
and that Messrs. Bonner and Ham
mond are to he the builders. Portland
ers, as a rule, are surprised, wheI
coming to Astoria, ITO hear the people
of this city saying doubtful things
about the proposition. Ye7terd'v's
Portland Sun contained a squfb to the
effect that upon good authority it was
reported THAT Mr.. Bonner had sold out
his interests in THE Astoria railroad
to Mr.. Hammond. The absurdity OF
the report is at once apparent to those
who know of the business relations OF
those gentlemen. The good authority
ofw ihich the Sun so knowingly speaks,
is probably the same from which a
similar rumor sprung in this city one
day last week.

A prominent lower river saw-mill
man said yesterday, that the Portland
mills were able to purchase logs and
have them towed so to 75 miles to that
city, at rate from so to rs cents
cheaper than the lower Columbia mills.
The only explanation he could give
was that they paid for them in Port
land and not at the logging camp as do
the lower river mills, hence they were
able to dictate the price.

WHY are SO many per-

WHY will women do so
many imprudent things and

WHY will men become

strange pains and broken
health when all can easily be
escaped?
WHY in fact, viii men
and women suffer when they
can become healthy and pro-
long their lives by the use Of
