being cut into suitable sizes and bark

stones in stream OF water and thus
reduced to pulp. In the chemical
process the barked wood is reduced
to chips and cooked in large digesters
with chemicals which destroy the
cementing material of the fibers and
leave practically pure cellulose. This
is then washed and screened to
render it suitable for paper making.
The chemicals ordinarily used are
either bi-sulphite Of lime or caustic
soda. A little over hall OF the pulp
manufactured last year was made by
the sulphite process, and about one
third by the mechanical process, the
remainder being produced by the
soda process. Much Of the mechan.
ical pulp, or ground wood as it is
commonly called. is used in the maxi
ing of newspaper 1t never used
alone in making white paper but al
ways mixed with some sulphitc fiber
to give the paper strength. A cord Of
wood ordinarily yields about one ton
of mechanical pulp or about onc-half
ton OF chemical pulp.

EXPERIMENTAL CHANGES.

One Of the home-charms of AS
toria, is the swift and radical adapta-
ton of our people 20 the warm and
brilliant changes incident to the COM
ing Of summer; the quick rallying to
the genial bidding OF the warmth, the
light and lustre, of the exquisite days,
as they play over the magnificent
land and water scapes that are our
heritage; the sudden submergence OF
the Crouch" the complaint, the
dubious and hopeless utterance; the
anxious and perturbed> look; and the
rising Of the happier aspect and
cheer inseparable from the smile and
word of the newer view of things
everywhere.
OF course, we are no different from
our fellows; but the Astoria summer
is different. 1t is the ideal season Of
the Pacific slope and finds its perfect
expression here at the mouth of the
Columbia by every element of the
guage that is used to determine that
arch-conditions. The con6guration Of
fguration of the land; the great fun
mel Of the majestic river which draws
the passing ocean breeze from its
vast habitat and cools it with the
mountain temperatures that cling to
the Columbian waters even as they
pass into the huge seas; the lay OF
the hills that meet the winds from
oversee and overland, and holds
them in suspension until they take
on the delicious warmth that glows
inspiringly, yet never enervates nor
sickens.
No wonder our people cheer up
and take on the livlier impress Of the
sunny hours at hand; they are enough
TO inspire the broadest possible
change in temperament, feeling,
speech, habit and inclination; and
we want the thousands up in the in
terror, Portland included, to come
down and share the beauties and
charms and "perspirationless" quail
ties of the Astoria summer.

COLUMBIA BAR soUNDINGs.

Everybody in any sort OF touch
with the great national improvement
embodied in the Columbia river jet
ties, is hoping the developments from
the soundings now underway on the
Columbia bar, may prove the further
marked and genuine success OF the
huge undertaking; that the record
OF depths attained to in 1908, may far
exceed any yet made; that certain
evidence may be secured showing
sharp reductions of the curvatures OF
that grim old barrier over the records
of the past, and that the work is
yielding sure and signal results.
The records Of 1907 were distinctly
good and indicated that the real pur
pose of the jetty had been wrought
up to, and that the action OF the big
rock-arm was what the engineers had
devised; and we shall rejoice in the
news from the surface that shall con-
firm this state of affairs.
The task is, or should be, drawing
toward consummation, and is being
watched with larger and broader in
terest than has been given it in years
and what of tentative concern has
been felt is giving way to more
pronounced regard, and always with
the best hope for. specific and fixed
achievement.

PORTLAND HOLDS IT NoWl.

There was day in the dim past
when Astoria bore a name for
"roughhouse" proclivities and people
and records, that, as far as it went,
was among the justihable attach
ments to this city's reputation; but
Portland, with her usual faculty for
absorbing all things that make this
city and section distinctive to any
degree whatever, having relieved us
of the agencies that contributed to
that condition and repute, is now, ac-
cording to dispatches from there,
the "wickedest town in the State" ad
for her size and scope, parallels poor
old San Francisco in the raw degen-
eracy of her popular morals and po-
lice conivance Herewith.
The news is shocking, of course;
but, once big community starts in
to arrogate to itself all the peculiar
attributes that belong to sister cities
over the same state, she must take
over the good and bad and make the
most Of them; and Portland doing
this with remarkable success. As
toria gladly yielded her the palm in
this relation a long while ago; and
counts herself practically free from
all such debasing fame and function
and in granting the metropolis the
distinction she has attained to, does
it with a thankfulness she have not
felt for her interference, for many a
long day
The fact that Portland is the only
big city in the State, adds emphasis
and color to the rottenness where
with she is charged, and leaves her
without competition in the ugly
premise; with no other city in the
realm to share the notoriety nor to
qualify the extraordinary and subli-
mated pass to which she has arrived.
We regret It, of course; but there is
a touch Of justice in the mere pos
sibility Of evening up the measure Of.
