VISITOR TALKS FINELY
OF ASTORIA
AN AUTHENTIC ACCOUNT OF
WHAT MAN SEES IN THE
FUTURE.

do | think Astoria is going to be
a place OF great Importance in the
near FUTURE" replied one OF the big
gest investors Of the Northwest resi-
dent in Spokane and Los Angeles
who recently visited this city and
went over all Of the possible invest
ment opportunities with Mr. Frank
Patton Of the Astoria Savings Bank
and chairman Of the Promotion Com
mittee OF the Chamber OF Commerce,
Il certainly think so and | speak
advisedly,' said the visitor, because
| have given the Astoria situation
careful study for many years, am
coming back here again in a little
while and will give this interesting
locality my best attention from close
range.
But | don't mind telling you why
| believe Astoria is to be great port
and a big city. The reasons are so
simple should think everyone in
Astoria capable of making an intelli.
gent investment would know them.
Tn the first place Astoria has ac-
eomplished wonders during the ten
years il has had a railroad. more
than doubling in population and
quintupling in taxable values. For
one railroad and only ten years Of
time this is certainly pretty good
headway,
Il feel confident from my investi.
cations that Astoria will have two
more railroad lines within very
short time the Hartman system
from Portland. Hillsboro and 'Tilla.
nook through Jewell to this city, and
the Northern Pacific from KeIso to
the mouth Of Deep River on the
North Bank OF the Columbia and
thence north through South Bend
and Cosmopohs 10 Gray's Harbor
Why, expect to see ferry in oper-
alton from Astoria across the Colum-
bia TO the North Bank where there
will be another good sized city in a
few years. But the North Bank City
would be entirely Of advantage to
Astoria and in no sense a disadvant.
age. 1t would help every merchant
and every owner Of property in As
toria and do no one any harm.
"The completing Of these two rail-
roads will make Astoria more cen
trail point for any kind OF trade and
commerce than Seattle. Certain in
vestors used to claim that Seattle
could not be a big place because it
was out at one side Of everything
that it was isolated, but that sort of
talk has no foundation in fact, as the
history OF Seattle has proven, the
same proof having also been furn-
ished by such important cities as
New York. New Orleans, Galveston,
San Francisco and Los Angeles.
Furthermore it is down on the
cards that a coastwise railroad will
be built all the way from Seattle
through Astoria to San Francisco.
Then the perfect summer climate of
Astoria and vicinity will make Clat'
sop county one Of the most popular
resorts to be fourd anywhere And
the biggest towns Of future Oregon
will very likely be those along the
coast, making Astoria's trade terri

AFTERNOON SPENT
WITH NO RESULT
HIGH SCHOOL CLAIMS NOT YET
ADJUSTED.
Matters Stand Where They Did Before
and Will Likely be Settled
In Court.

The meeting of the High school
board Saturday afternoon and briefly
mentioned in yesterdays paper, was
not productive of any particular re-
suit. The members of the board and
the attorneys representing different in
terests spent the better part of the
afternoon in session and when the
meeting finally adjourned. matters
were practically in the same shape as
when the meeting started.
Readers will remember that some
time ago proceedings were instituted
by Howells & Graham, plasterers, for
the garnishment of a certain amount
of the money due Contractor Bell for
services rendered. In addition to this
claim there were other claims, the
total aggregating about 5000. The
claimants were j. j. Cottrell of Phoenix
for brick. p. c. Roche company of Los
Angeles and the Wood Stone Manufac-
ing company of the same place. In ad-
dition there was a claim from the L.
W. Biinn company of nearly $4,000
The total amount that Mr.. Bell has
coming from the board is $S,463.79 and
il seems that Mr.. Bell has transferred
this claim against the high school
board to the Blinn company in whole
or partial payment Of that bill. This
method leaves the small accounts I'M
cared for and from the proceedings of
Saturday. il is evident that the board
proposes that even the smallest credi-
tor shall be settled with before final
settlement is made with the contrac-
tor.
The Saturday afternoon session was
a lively one. Assistant District At
torney Lyman was present represent
ing the interests of the high school
board. Attorney J. II. Langhston rep
resented Mr.. Bell. Charles Woolf of
this place was present in the interests
of Howells and GRAHAM, and L. ].
Knipe. superintendent of construction,
was present for the purpose of supply
ing such information as was pertinent
to the matters under consideration.
After spending a good deal of time in
an effort to bring the matter 10 some
conclusion. a motion was made that
the amount due Mr. Bell be paid the
Blinn company less the smaller
amounts due the lesser creditors. This
motion was lost and the meeting forth
with adjourned. Mr.. Bell it is under
stood left for Los Angeles that eve
ming. AS il stands now it appears
that the matter will probably be set
tied in court. At any rate. for the time
being. the high school board still holds
the final payment up, pending some
sort of. satisfactory settlement.

ATHLETIC MEETING.
All Schools of the Valley Represented
At II.

Saturday afternoon an athletic meet
ing was held at the Tempe High school
to further the development of the Ath-
letic League of Arizona which has
been in process of formation. The
schools represented were: Phoenix In
dian school, Phoenix High school.
Tempe High school and Mesa High
school.
After considerable dispute and
wrangling a constitution was adopted.
Bylaws were then drawn up and also
adopted. A copy of the constitution
and bylaws will appear in this paper
at a date sometime in the near future.
The most important business was
the fixing of the different seasons for
the contests in different games. They
are as follows: Track season starts
October and ends December /. Basket
ball for men was also agreed upon to
be played by few of the schools. Its
season starts December l and ends
January Is. The rest of the year will
be consumed in baseball. In some of
the schools this game will last until
almost the close of school. But in the
Tempe Normal the board prohibits any
contests in the last quarter of school
so that baseball in the Normal will
have to be finished by April l.
The next meeting will be held in
Mesa next Saturday and the regular
round of business will be commenced
also the election of the officers will be

LARoED.
Three-Ring Circus, Trained Wild AMI

Judging from information at hand,
the Hagenbeck-Wallace Shows must
be the standard Of excellence by
which all other amusement enterprises
should be measured When these
shows exhibit here September p. il
Is said the foundation for this asser-
ton Of superiority and magnitude will
be apparent. The Hagenbeck-Wallace

enterprise that is more comprehensive
than any other tented institution In
its augmented form it embraces be
sides the great Wallace Circus and
original Haeenbeck Trained Wild Ami
mai show an East Indian Exhibition
and Hindoo Festival that would rival
the Feast Of Belshazzar and cast into
Oblivion the Oriental grandeur and
slories of the famous Arabian nights.
In enlarging for its zenith Of greatness
no effort or expense was spared to
build an institution of such tremend-
Gus scope that failure at reaching the
coveted ranking position in the amuse-
ment world would be impossible That
success has attended the effort is now
matter Of record.
Three practically distinct shows
each radically different from the other
have been blended into a harmonious
whole. individually. either from the
standpoints of extent or worthiness
they would compel the attention and
admiration. and presented together
they make for a proposition that is as
gigantic as it Is irresistible.
