SEATTLE, THE
"EMPRESS CITY,"

THE following Is a verbatim
copy Of the resolution In
trodueed Ia the Chamber of
Commerce at Wednesdays
meeting by James 6. GivenA
to change the sentimental title
OF Seattle from the "Queen
to the Empress City" The
resolution Is a copy Of an edi-
toriai that recently appeared
IN the Post-Intelligeneer:
Whereas, Il h the custom among
cities to adopt. IN addition to their
kgal names, titles OF character, 50 to
speak, and SEATTLE has been called the
Queen City: Bot this Is not title OF
Seattle's character, and for that reA-
son the Queen City is, il not mis-
nomer. only partly expressive Of the
eitys trk Character The vast domain
tributary to Seattle, and from which
she derives her wealth and power, Is
not mere qusendom, eonpfehending
within its limits the ARIA and people Of
one country, bot it IS an empire, reach
ing oct to many people and embfac-
ing many lands. To the south, where
rolls the Oregon Lies vast territory
sending its wealth to Seattle's Golfers,
TO the west the wonderful state OF
Washington. Ssattle's native land; to
thu north the li1nitiess regions Of Brit
ish Columbia, and to the northwest
the unnsasured fields Of Alaska, from
which pour increasing floods Of gold.
These constitute the imperial domain
OF SEATTLE, and over them her sway is
supreme and her control is permanent;
Whereas, In the earlier days, when
the pioneers looked upon the peerless
beauty OF S<attle's site Upon the Sound,
IT was natural enough that they should
cali her the Queen City, for she
was queen Of beauty, but in these later
days she has grown beyond the limits
OF queenship and has risen in imperial
might to the title OF Empress City,
therefore, be it
"Resolved, That this Chamber Of
Commerce designate as the subtitle OF
SEATTLE the name Empress City;' that
this be hereafter adopted, instead OF
Queen City, by which subtitle it
has been formally known"
