an article on the fate-war PROPOSE
ton as II exists between the river
steamers and the Astoria & Columbia
River railroad. The article, II appears,
is particularly interesting from the
errors IL embodies and the facts which
It does not contain. At least, this is
the way the article is sized up by
persons connected with the manage

railroad. The statements would, in

says he knows nothing of any such
arrangements as is referred to. Others
Of the road who are in a position to
know whereof they speak, express
themselves more forcibly by denounc-
ing It as blank lie. The article runs
as follows:

be good news to the merchants of AS
toria, who have been losing great
deal OF business on account of the low
fares prevailing which induces many
Astorlans to come to Portland to do
their shopping, but from what can be
learned the conditions on which the
rate war is to be settled are not so
favorable as they might be. The
cause of the trouble between the rail-
road and the steamboat lines is not
fully understood by everybody, and the
following explanation. furnished by an
interested party, may be of public in
terest. When the railroad was put in
operation. clear through, the company
discontinued making connections at
Astoria between their trains to the
Seaside and the steamboat lines.
Seasiders going to Astoria by boat on
transferring to the railroad were SUBJ

onable charges for excess baggage
from Astoria to the seaside, and If they
had box of provisions 1t was not al
lowed to go as baggage, but had to be
shipped as freight, and, of course. be
delayed.
Passengers felt as il this was done to
get even with them for coming down
on a boat, and were told that II they
had come down by rail there would
have been none of these extra charges.

per cent, and wished to handle their
summer business via Flavel or Astoria,

officials have large holdings of land at
Flavel and II would therefore suit them
better to have all passengers trans
ferred at Flavel. 1t is understood that

AFRIKANDERS GATHERING

Worcester, Cape Colony, We'd
the Afrikander Congress tomorrow is
expecte.. to be fully 1000. The hotels
are already filled to their capacity.
The Afrikanders ridicule the idea Of
trouble. They say they can surely air
their grievances without resorting 10
violence. They are greatly incensed
at the posting Of guns in positions
commanding the meeting place. The
slopes surrounding the town are
crowded with artillery and troops
with cannon have been posted on Gal
lows Hin and Surprise Hill.
The government is distributing
broadcast a leaflet showing up the
falsity of many of the anti-British
stories and pointing out the hopeless
ness of the Boer resistance, as the
British hold $4,000 prisoners and all
the principal towns in the two repub-
lies.
