The daily morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1883-1899, 1899-01-22

We think the freight rate Of the o. r.
& n. Company on wheat from Wana
Walla to Portland is about AO0 ton.
The distance is 2l5 miles and the grade
is true water level. The SAM. rate is
charged on the Northern 10 Tacoma. over
which the distance IS 22l miles and the
grade ridgy and mountainous. II the
Northern can haul wheat at that rate
over It's steep grade, the o. r. & y. Com
pany, with 70 miles less distance and a
down grade. should be able to haul It
for a fourth less at least Let the Oregon
legislature see 70 it that this plainly just
reduction is made Then the o. r. &
N. Company will have no reason 10 fight
an "open railway" to Astoria. on the
pro-rate Of 800 q ton with the A & c.
r. r. Astoria is 3i5 miles from Walla
walla but the down grade far oyerbaI-
ances the "A miles Of greater distance
than Tacoma. The Push" club and the
chamber Of commerce should get up the
exact freight rates from all wheat points
and furnish them to the legislature. Let
rs have strong and steady move all
along the line. The enemy" lives in a
glass house. A few dornicks will create
commotion that will help the people.
When siloa's pool was stirred the people
were healed in ye olden time. The Ore
gon legislature should inquire what the
o. r. & N. Company does with that sur
plus 25 per cent freight charge on wheat.
1t viii be found that 1t is used to pay
for towage and lighterage Of the CoIum-
bia river grain ships, as bonus to hire
them to go up to Portland. What? Do
our farmers pay $lOO a ton to main
tain Portland as the seaport They do
exactly this thing But If our open
railway" to Astoria were forced, that ex-
ira dollar would bring their wheat TO
this port, where It would be worth $3.50
ton more than it now brings 10 the
farmers. Let the Oregon legislature
get a move on.

Il IS said that the plans are prepared
and the capital all ready for the con-
structton Of SIX ships at san Francisco

By Senator Hanna, is passed. The Great

put on a half-dozen great freight and

modaie It's trade 10 the Orient II that

being swiftly made to establish German

The Astorian IS an admlrer Of the ore

Mr.. Delrs fair and temperate letter and
indicate wherein It's positions may be un-

than some Of the newspapers OF this

tect OF greater importance.
We hope to have a general expression
from all the press OF Oregon. Washington,
