A NATIONAL CHAMBER OF CON-.
MERGE.

It Is an undoubted fact that a great deal or
the talent Of the country Is now given excIu-
sively 70 manufacturing and commercial pur-
suits This is well; but so closely do our
business men devote themselves TO the most
direct means of making money that they are
content TO leave the work of government to
others They hardly take the trouble to 20 to
tie polls, and teldom think OF taking part in
primary meetings; and thus have not that
influence in shaping practical legislation for
tue benefit of the material IN ,erests Of the coun-
try which they should have. Active, prac-
tIcal men in business pursuits dislike to enter
tAe political arena-except where some special
interest Is involved-and il Is almost hone
les. to expect a change in that respect
But there is another means of bring
Ing their influence to bear Ii has been
suggested In several quarters that a CON-
vention of delegates frem all the boards of
trade IN the United States, should be ARRANGED

forming National Chamber Of Commerce
ne idea Is a good enc. The friendly meeting
OF representatives of different sections vould
bring about better understanding, and An
important part Of their business would be the

Improvements In such questions as the tariff
banking and currency, &c, a mutual inter.
change OF opinions would be of ADVANTAGE ana
q discussion OF these points by practicsi men
would undoubtedly have q good result. Con.
sress would naturally take into due csnsidera-
ton, suggestions emanating from such a bodv.
and by holding their meetings IN tbis citv
during the sessions of the National Legislature
the dignity and importance of the National
Chamber Of Commerce would have their full
effect.
