The council passed two good ordinances
at its last meeting, and one very bad
one. The ordinance for the improve
ment Of Exchange street will Especial
ly meet with universal commendation.
This street has long been an eyesore
and disgrace to the city. More than
cne visitor to Astoria has been heard to
express astonishment that street right

aIlOw-d to lapse into such a condition;

man Of progress in thus Fastening to put
Astoria in line with New York and other
cities all over the country in this mod
ern revival Of one Of the most wholesome
municipal customs or regulations Of the
seventeenth century. Both these ordi-
nances should and doubtless will receive
the hearty approval Of Mayor Taylor.
But the ordinance providing for the re-
moval Of the electric light at Bond and
18th street should not be allowed to be-
come a law. There is not only no real
excuse for abolishing this light, but on
the other hand there are more good rea-
sons why It should be maintained than
could be urged. perhaps. for any other
light in the city The light was estab-
Iished on the unanimous prayer Of every
adjacent property owner, and # has prob
ably been the direct means Of saving
more than one human life. 1t is true

SOME WRONG IMPRESSIONS NEED
ING CORRECTION.

II appears that in the last eigh: months
s.ts7 tons OF tsa have been landed at
Tacoma for shipment Eastward; AMI one
Of the local papers says that about %
uer cent Of all the tea and about % per
cent OF all the raw silk sent TO America
are now unloaded at the docks in that
city. This seems to show that Puget
sound is rapidly becoming the principal
gateway for the Increasing commerce OF
the Orient
The above item from the editorial col
umns Of the st. Louis Globe-Demoerat.
a paper having larger circulation than
all other papers put together in the Mis-
sissippi valley. shows how Puget souni
Is being advertised in the East.
1t is just that kind Of advertising that
Astoria needs and has got to have, If
this section expects to get a share Of the
immigration which is about to commence
from all portions OF the country TO the
Pacific coast. 1t may be true that IS
per cent Of all the limited Oriental com
merce now coming to this country IS un-
loaded at the Seattle and Tacoma land
INKS on FukCA cOAnAt NAA a4A NA~A 1HN~A
either OF those places becoming the gate
way for this commerce is the sheerest
nonsense.
When Astoria's railway IS completed
this city will have such advantages as a
port OF entry and export for the Asiatic
markets that the far inland and out-of-
the-way towns on Puget sound will not
be heard Of as sea ports on the Pacific
coast. And Astoria, without a railroad,
would long ago have been the great OBJ
jective point for the commerce Of this
coast II Portland had not pursued the
dog-in-the-manger policy. which has
forced shipowners and shipmasters to
steer past the only safe and accessible
harbor on the entire Northern Pacific
coast. and encounter the dangerous and
tortuous entrance TO these small towns
away in the interior Of the state Of
Washington
Nearly everybody in the East who has
become interested in the Pacific coast, and
is now casting longing eyes in this di-
rection with the expectation Of living
here some day. imagines that Tacoma.
Seattle and Portland are coast cities.
and that the sound of the booming surf
is the perpetual music of their streets.
They do not know that a large majority
of the people who inhabit these villages
never saw the sea in their lives, and
that the sight Of an ocean vessel at their
docks is as unnatural and incongruous a
spectacle as a naked Hottentot would
present in Broadway. New York.
These erroneous impressions need to be
corrected. and the property owners and
citizens generally Of Astoria must raise
the means and devise ways to do It at
once. The Globe-Democrst gets its ex-
aggerated ideas OF Tacoma from its local
papers, and there is no better way TO en- .
tighten the Globe and other newspapers. .
as well as their readers. concerning the
the facts about Oriental commerce and
the only seaport on the North Pacific
coast, than to send them a daily journal
Of the happenings and developments now
going on in this vicinity. such as is pub
lished every morning in the Astorian.
