THE L STORY.

\ Portland correspondent Of Friday
sends the Historian this clipping. together
with the accompanying communication:
The British bark Chelmsford, eig7 tons.
is loading railroad iron at Grimsby, Eng
land. for Portland. This iron is intended
for the Astoria-Go b railorad. and is
part Of the 1000 tons recently purchased
by Mr.. Hammond. The British ship Tul-
wood. glls tons, is also at Grimsby. and
the British ship Brenhilda, 1897. IS at
Maryport, loading with iron. 1t viii re-
ouare five OF six vessels to bring the en-
tire amount.
MAN. Of even date. VIII you please re-
print 1t. and ask the Oregonian if these
ships are to load, and clea- for Portland
bring the iron up here, ard discharge II
her, and then hav it go back to astoria on
barges, or are they to arrive at Portland
first, via Puget Sound. and thea go en- to
Astoria, and discharge? Is It not a fact
that these ships are 20 load. clear AMI
discharge at Astoria before coming to
Portland? II this is so, should not As
toria have and get the credit, and should
1t not be made known to the public that
the ships are for Astoria. and Portland
not be allowed to get the credit and
advertising that belongs 10 Astoria, as
she is doing by sending out such items
as the attached unchallengsd? Astoria
needs just such facts made public, so
that the world will know that she is a
port. and is going to have a arilroad in
the near future"
This offence is such an old one and such
a favorite game with the Oregonian that
the Astorian is sick and tired Of correct
ing and exposing 1t. Were 1t not tina
the thing touched. at every repetition, on
a matter absolutely vital to Astoria's in
terests we would long ago have ceased
TO recognize such contemplate efforts to
injure our city's standing abroad and to
bolster up the false and ridiculous claims
OF Portland to being a port" Only a
few months ago it was shown in these
columns that the oregonian was spread
ing broadcast the untruth that three YES
sells loaded with some 5000 cases Of salm-
on had cleared from the United Kingdom
from Portland. when as a matter Of fact
every case was packed, put aboard, and
shipped direct from our owl wharves, one
hundred miles nearer the ocean.
The Chelmsford. Tulwood. and Bren-
hllda that the clipping under present
discussion refers to are not booked to
unload cargo ct Portland at all, but at
and 50 will all the vessels loaded
with railroad iron that follow them. Ac-

THE DAVIS RESOLUTION.

There is this important difference 10 b,
observed between the Presidents Ven
eGuelan message and the Davis resolution.
introduced In the senate on Friday. name
", the first does not cnuuciate the Mon
roe doctrine. and the latter does. Mr..
C~leveland's position is, in eject, that
England may not acquire territory on
this continent unless she can get IL with
the free consent OF the country from
which it is taken.
The Davis resolution declares that no
European power shall extend its present
holdings or control Of territory in North
or South America regardless OF whether
the American nation directly involved
consents or o r. Cleveland would
commit US to a mere sentimental protec-
torate over the ackle and erratic Spanish
governments OF the South. which could
be invoked. evaded, or openly repudiated
by these countries whenever It suited
their ehangeable and ~treacherous within
or purpose TO 10 so.
Such a relation to the South American
states would be contrary to the spirit
and traditions OF our government. and
could no; possibly se,ure our Republic
against The hostile encroachmen,s OF de-
signing monarchies in .he Old World.
which is the very gist and point OF the
Monroe doctrine. The Davis resolution.
on the other hand, Is n bold and stall
wart affirmation OF our determination 10
uphold our rights as an independent ma
ton against any attack however indirect
and insldioUs on the part OF any other
nation or the combined nations OF the
world.
II u perhaps be conceded that nel-
Their the presidents position nor that of
Senator Davis has ever been a recognized
or admitted doctrine OF international law.
but there is this distinction between the
Cleveland M the Davis position: that
under Cleveland we would occupy the
ridiculous role OF a national Don Quixote,
and be entirely subject to the caprices
and tre2chery Of a lot Of picayune Spanish
governments in any endeayor TO uphold
our rights or dignity. while under the
Davis construction our ability TO defend
our assumed right and independence
would rest solely on the valor OF our own,
so far invincihle Drawn AMI muscle, in
conjunction with the size and carrying
power OF the cannon we know how IN
manufacture.

A NEW FIELD.


That a new field OF Industry for Clat-
sop ranchers is opca and ready 10 oe oc-
cupied is the belief OF many who are
posted. In other columns OF this issue
appear articles concerning the introduc-
ton OF Ksfir corn into the United States
and the establishment OF a packing house
In Astoria The new grain seems to be
particularly well adapted 10 hog and
poultry raising, and It would appear to
be worthy an experiment in this territory
where ordinary corn nj be raised sue
cessfuTy. II Is a ~well-known fact tina
poultry annot be SO well iattened on
wheat as on corn. and the meat OF fowls
raised on corn is much swester, as well
as fatter. h a that OF those raised on
wheat Everybody knows that hos and
homlny are inseparahle porkers fat

have tougher and larger bones and pro-
dGce a hne. firm neat. Besides, wheat
is ordinarily too valuable to feed to hogs
The meat OF hogs fed on wheat is sweet.
but not so firm as that OF the corn-fed
animals
The time was when on an average about
one car load ger day of hams and bacon
arrived from the east in Portland for dis
tribution in this part Of the state. Port
land enterprise has gradually induced the
raising OF hogs in the valleys east and
south Of that city. and a packing house
was established which raised the nome
raised product Now only three or four
cars per week are said to arrive from
the East. The pertinent question is
asked, why not pack Clatsop hogs in As
toria? A large field for home consump-
ton is cpen here. The farmer would
receive good revenue for his product and
always have a market at home where
his animals can be sold at a small cost
for transportation. On the completion of
the Astoria-Gob road this fall there
will be large numbers Of ships loading
at this port which would be also large
purchasers Of pork.
With kafir corn, a little labor on the
part OF ranchers. introduction of hog
raising on a large scale, and a packing
house in Astoria. there would be formed
a three-sided combination that would put
money in the hands OF the farmer. the
merchant. the capitalist and the laborer.
Is not the experiment worth trying?
