predict that the object OF the movement
for these gatherings Will be accomplished.
The central idea In having the eerles OF
gatherings OF businessmen 90 auspi'
ciously inauguratA In the first Of the
meetings was 20 bring our merchants,
manufacturers. and others together for the
purpose Of discussing questions bearing
upon Richmond's commercial and Indus
trial development. and thus make known
20 both home and foreign capital the
cijys advantages as a field for invest
ment in new enterprises. Last nights
meeting was thoroughly representative OF
all the important interests OF the city.
and the spirit that pervaded II and the
facts stated and the suggestions thrown
out by the several speakers demonstrated
the wisdom Of the latest effort of the
Chamber TO give proper prominence to
Richmond's business possibilities and
turn them 20 practical account
In discussing the scope Of the meetings
few days ago the Dispatch suggested
that Il would be within their province
20 consider such questions OF municipal
legislation as had bearing upon our COM
mercial and manufacturing interest. We
are glad TO see that the meeting last
night. acting in the line OF that sugges-
ton. took up the matter Of the proposed
discontinuance Of the electrc-l!ghts upon
the streets. and passed a resolution ask
ing that the Council make an appropria-
ton for carrying on the service.
