Business Mems Association

Inc IrCsS has recently been calling
attention to the fact that a Business
Mems Association should be organized
in this city. These suggestions have
caused considerable talk among our
business men, and some few have
thought Of the matter seriously, and
expressed their opinions freely upon
the subject, and the matter has only
to be worked up thougherly by our bust
hess men to have such an institution es-
tablished in Mcnasha.
Oshkosh and Green Bay have re-
Gently attempted this plan Of develop
ing their business resources and in
Appleton it has been successfully car
RED on for several years past. Wher-
ever any plan for organizing the
merchants professional and business
men generally into a working body,
having in view the advancement Of a
city. one adopting a substantial meth
Cd Of inducing new manufacturing
institutions to locate there it has
never failed to promote the financial
growth and wealth Of the place.
Menasha, as well as any city, needs
the advantages of such an organiza-
tion But it must be remembered that
the vigorous work IN order to accom-
plish such an end, must come from
our merchants, general dealers, pro-
1essional and business men Of all
classes who obtain their business from
the theft and growth of the city, and
the increase Of the population which
must inevitably follow each succeeding
new enterprise which brings in new
capital and employs men who expcnd
their money with the merchant. or
course it is of no particular Importance
to our manufacturers whether such
move is made or not but many Of
them will aid such project in the in
terests Of the city
Menasha has natural advantages but
it requires united action on the part Of
the people to advertise these advant-
ages, AID to offer inducements to
manufacturing firms througout the
country to locate here.
What this city needs, and now is
just the time TO agitate the matter, is
an organized body Of men who will IN
tcrest themselves in inducing capital to
seek an investment here advertising
our advantages, and giving attention
to ali matters that can benefit our
city.-Neaasha Press
The above fits our case exactly. 1t
requires 10 argument to demonstrate
the efficacy Of organized effort. 4
Bushwhaeker method of procedure
will never accomplish anything There
must be directness Of purpose, accom-
panied BY backing that appears for,
midable aud commands respect. With
a Business Mems Association our In
terests can lie represented in manner
that will carry conviction and our tu-
ture prosperity will be a matter Of
certainty. Random efforts or disunit-
ed action will accomplish but little, but
harmonious organization Of our bust
ness men with an eye sight to
prosperity Of the whole city can
accomplish much. - Iiausau Central.
The above is all worthy Of being re
peated and adjusts itself to our case.
Had our business men in the years
gone by had an organized association,
this city and Centralia. would be the
envy of all neighboring cities. We
have had opportunities without num-
Ter aud failure has always been from
a lack Of organized persona! effort.

A juvenile Circus.

In Lamar, Kansas, one day last week.
a party of lads who had been reading
Byron's "Mazeppa" concluded to have
some fun with a cow-the only wild
steed available AT that time. They
coaxed the COW into the barn, barred
the doors and drew lots for the Mazep-
pa. The boy who drew the short
straw, a wiry little fellow of thirteen
year, was tied securely upon the cows
back. The noble animal seemed to
take in the situation and to realize that
her reputation as an actress was at
stake. Her acting was magnificent,
indeed, for she brought down the house,
by sections Although the audience
all had parquette and parquette circle
tickets they thought they could LOOK at
the play better from the gallery, and so
they slid up into the hay-mow and tri-
ed to crawl out through the roof while
the old COW was chuyping about four
teen years growth Oft of Mazeppa and

That HandSOmpSt Woman

Mr.. K. 5. Dinges, general director for
the Forepaugh show, is at fever heat
OF madness, and it is not likely be will
cool off until the snow flies next fall.
The cause of this high pressure of
coloric was the publication in Chicago
evening newspaper of an issue Of mis-
statements regarding his circus. The
forepaugh management 1t seems, adj
yertlsed premium Of $4,000 to be
awarded to the handsomest woman in
America the recipient of such prize
to appear daily in the street procession
during the circus season ofthirtv weeks.
The afternoon luminary SAYS this is
only an advertising dodge: that the
young woman who is said to have
drawn the premium is an employe of
the troupe; and that the large colec-
ton Of photographs mailed to the man
agement by aspiring beauties will be
exhibited as a side-how Mr.. Dingess
holds up both hands raises himself on
his tip-toes, lifts his ewes to the sun and
swears by the sacred elephant in the
menagerie that this is lie. He states
that the management has received
about three thousand photographs;
that a board of judges, composed of
Philadelphia journalists have awarded
,Ae prize, that the woman will ride in
HE street processi ons in all the cities,
and that she has not been a member of
.-e troupe; and that it is not the inten-
a9n Of the management to betray the
aontidence of the many ladies whose
Photographs were received by expos
l5g them TO the vulgar and curious
-ale Of the populace. A Chicago girl,
-esIdlng on one of the south side ave
1ues, IS known to have been summoned
70 Philadelphia by Forepaugh, but Mr..
Hlngess viii not say whether she is the
Aan-someSt' or not.
