OTHER VIEWS
ON THE DEPOT
One Nay to Settle the Matter SuG-
gested by Prominent Ply
sician of the City.
Dr.. Jay Tuttle Says That az Advantageous
Trade Might Be Made. bnt That II
Perhaps CannOt Be Accom-
plished at Once

That there are different opinions con
cerning the method OF settlement of the
depot question, was evident yesterday.
There are not few business men who
believe that the question OF location IS
not one of such great moment: and that.
in fact, II makes little difference where
the depot Is so long as there is one some
where in the city. Not few others are
of the opinion that the site at Alder
brook would be far superior, both for the
merchants and property owners at large.
In conversation with an Astorian rep
resentative yesterday, DR.. Jay Tuttle said
that he had been strongly in favor Of the
Scow Bay site, but that recently. since
studying up on the matter. he was pretty
well convinced that Alderbrook was the
better place 10 put the station. II do
not think that 1t will injure the general
business of the city or impair the value
of property centrally located. II the depot
is placed i'll Alderbrook. The immediate
vicinity Of any railroad station is not
desirable for anything othr than ware
houses, and / think that 1t would be
found that Astoria will do just as well II
its principal station was located some
distance from town.
There is a way. however, in which l
think the Scow Bay site might be Sc
cured although have rot the authority
to speak positively upon the subject.
From what l have learned 1 am salts
fed that If the property owners at Alder
brook would make a proposition to ths
Clatsop Mill Company similar to that
which was made by the Taylor estate, Of
fering them ample room on deep water
near Tongue point for mill site. tina
they would accept it and vacate the pres
ent site in favor of the railroad COM
pany 1 believe this solution of tho
problem has not before been broached.
and as l have said. it is not certain thai
It would succeed, but it is worth trying,
II this trade was made. the other holders
of Scow Bay property could soon be ar
ranged with. and the central location for
for the depot could be secured without
difficulty"
