admirably They include the elimina-
tion of cars used for buckwheat and
smaller sizes from the regular allot-
ment to breakers; the establishment
of storage yards at central points: the
making of lower freight rates on the
small steam sizes so that the coal may
be marketed at a price equal to or
lower than that at which soft GOAL is
sold; and that more attention be given
to the adoption and enforcement of
smoke ordinances in cities. These sug-
gestions apparently are quite practica-

Besides the Hawaiian cable. Astoria
should also have a naval station and a
government dry dock The Columbia
basin is the geographical center OF the
Paciac coast Of North America. It is
the natural highway OF the worlds com
merce between Orient and occident
because, outside Of its central location.
the Columbia river affords the only pass
through the Co.,ll rs range from
southern California to northern Wash
ingtOn. 1t has one Of the finest river en-
frances in the world made so by
two million dollar jetty. Its harbor is
unequalled In the west. and beyond all
supplies the sine qua non for a naval
station-fresh water. 1t is superior to
Puget sound in two particulars. besides
Its central location 1t has fresh water
at low tide and does not border upon the
tsrritory OF foreign nation. Az to San
Francisco, 1t is conceded the naval sta
tion should not be located there. And
as between the Sound and the Columbia's
mouth there can be no comparison. or
course the location Of a naval station
here necessitates a good dry dock: and
these two will put our harbor and tettv
under the special care Of the limited
States. Were It not for the insane teal-
ousy of Portland there would be no
doubt about our securing both the nava,
station and the dry dock. The Astorian's
pamphlet 'The Seaport Problem Of the
Pacific Northwest" is creating n deen
impression upon Portland thinkers. II
It shall make them friends of Astoria
It win not only force an "open railway .
which was Its logical purpose. but It will
also secure us the naval station and dry
dock. Our senators and members OF con-
gress should be supplied with a number
