Astoria must always remain the
greatest port in Oregon because
Providence in shaping the Pacific
Coast made il such. In year after
the dredge Chinook is put to work
you can have 40 feet OF water across
the bar into the Astoria harbor, Ten
years from now it will take that much
water to handle the ships that will
then be carrying the commerce Of
the Pacific Ocean, The Olympia is
now being built with $4,000 tons dis
placement and 37A feet draft and
even that big vessel probably does
not mark the limit OF size in maritime
construction. And il will never be
possible to accommodate vessels Of
even half this size with a channel
any further up the river than Astoria
THE Farmers Union understands
this freight situation, very evidently
judging from the suit they brought
before the Interstate Commerce
Commission asking for the same
rates of freight on their grain to As.

be able to boast OF one Of the largest
saw mills in the entire country.
One of the results will probably be
to build UP the Tongue Point section
Of the city at much more rapid
rate.
But perhaps the most important
result will be to accentuate the adj
vantages of Astoria and the lower
river for lumber mill and lumber mill
product sites. 1t does not seem that
a man would have to be very smart
to understand that logs can be towed
cheaper down stream than up stream,
yet A. B. Hammond has been the
first large, successful lumber man to
utilize this knowledge turning an abb
stract theory into dollars and cents,
And now that he has given Astoria
the largest lumber mill, other lum.
bermen will Of course sit up and take
notice. Most anybody can do a smart
thing easier after he has seen some
one else do it.
A. B. Hammond should be given
the glad hand when he comes here
few days hence and Mr.. Mcleod, his
manager, could we'll afford to hustle
out and take bigger part in local
community affairs.

stock Of suits; the latest and largest

However, there is a general busi-
ness quietude throughout the country
and merchants are sitting still, wait
ing for things to improve
But Wise wont wait; he's not of
the waiting temperament; so he in

He has pinned in the breast pocket
Of each suit and overcoat check for
from $3.50 to $40 which will be de-
Quoted from the price Of the suit or

HAMMOND MILLS WILL.
Be THE LARGEST
NO OTHER PLANT ON THE
COAST WILL EQUAL THIS
CONCERN.

The purchase of the 900 feet Of
river front property Immediately ad'
joining the Hammond Lumber mill
holdings on the west is a transac'
ton OF greater importance to Astoria
than it is generally understood TO be
by the public.
In a word it means that the Ham,
mond Lumber mill is to become the
largest on the Pacific Coast.
The capacity OF the plant is 10 be
enlarged from approximately 10000
to $4,000 feet for l0-hour cut The
capacity for a 20.hour run will be
fully $4,000 feet and It is expected
that ii will run 20 hours per day con
tinuously. and there win probable be
expended in making these improve
meuts as much as $lS0,0O0, the con.
tract for all OF which has already
been let even down to the driving OF
piles, so it is understood,
There viii be some innovations.
such as automatic sorting tables.
The wharf and booming capacity
will be doubled and altogether the
Hammond Lumber mill will become
the largest on the Pacific Coast. The
company will have 1000 feet of water
front. much of which will be from 28
to 80 feet deep at low tide, easily ae-
commodating the largest lumber car
-rying vessels now to be found in the
trade. A. B. Hammond is expected
here about May from San Francisco
to look over these improvements per
sonally.
The American Lumber Company
from which the Hammond people
bought the tract, have held il for
about 10 years Frank Patton is the
president and c. L. Houston the sec
retary. Originally there were 100
feet in the tract but the Hume Lum-
Der Company, when they owned the
Hammond mill several years ago
bought 200 feet of it to make slight
addition. The tract extends 1000 feet
out from the shore line.
The transaction is one of the
greatest importance to Astoria in re-
cent years because it means much to
