Astoria Is beginning To so ahead more
rapidly than ever the CITY y-by-the-Sea
did before. The continual announce.
ment Of new enterprises. new railroads,
greater shipping facilities, the interest

three months.
New buildings are going up in every
quarter Of the city. Street improve

pecially on the elevated portions Of the
city. Downtown stores are being paint.

Ing TO show itself on the part Of prop
erty holders, many Of whom showed
nothing but apathy heretofore.
Only few short months ago the man
who could knock the city the hardest
was regarded with envy by citizens who
did not know how to WELD good ham
mer. AS "every knock ii boost" the
unfailing result has come. The people
Of Astoria have heard so much knocking
that they have grown sick Of it. They
have grown to resent II and this is the
sign Of better things.
The man who knocks on Astoria at
present soon loses any friends he may
have in this city. The people are get
ting patriotic for the town and they
will not stand to hear Astoria knocked.
They have become SO confident in its
future that it is reflection on their
intelligence when some fresh" article
starts to beIittle the city and the efforts
Of the citizens to place il where IT

distributing point in northwestern Ore

the greatest interest in the railroad man
euvers which have selected this section
for the carrying out Of huge projects.
Even the Portland papers have become
convinced that they cannot ignore the
city any longer and yet tell the news Of
Oregon. During the past two weeks
quite number Of columns have beer
regretfully given to announce the doing'
of the railroads in this section
Everything points toward rapid
growth in the manufacturing and ship
