Excursion to the Skagit Valley
and the Fairhaven Mine
This Afternoon

An excellent program for the enter

lists has been arranged by the trustees
of the Chamber of Commerce. All the
details were satisfactorily settled at a
meeting held yesterday afternoon. A
very persistent attempt was made by
officers of the Oregon Improvement
Company and other astute schemers
at Seattle to induce the party to change
the program and upset all arrange
ments here by spending the day at
Anacortes and in the Skagit valley
not reaching Fairhaven until late in
the evening and leaving early Wednes-
day morning. This was finally frus-
trated, the party agreeing to spend the
entire day and evening subject to the
plans of the Chamber here. They will
arrive on the City of Seattle this morn
ing and will be met at the dock by
committee consisting of A. II. Clarke.

tertalned by Superintendent George r.. |
