Douglas Island news., 1901-01-02
FROM EVERY CLIMB.

It was once said of Chicago that it was the most cosmopolitan city on the globe, and perhaps that is the case. However, our little city of Douglas is in fair way to outstrip her if we are given credit for the difference in popu- lation. The inducements to laborers offered by the mining companies oper- ating on the Island have brought hither men from almost every part of the known world. A stranger might almost believe that he had landed in one of the European countries, as he listens to the different languages spoken on our streets.
 We interviewed Postmaster Stubbins the other day and elicited some infor- nation that is in itself interesting. We asked him the question, "How many nationalities are represented on Doug las IsIand?" We knew that his knowl- edge of the business done at the post office would aid him in answering the question.
 Stubbins hesitated a moment and then began to name them. We seized our lead pencil, and the following is | Al =, 1T

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
VERY MUCH ALIYE.-AN INTERESTING MEET NG.-THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ENDORSED.

A large per cent of the members Of the Douglas Island Chamber of Com merce were present at the regular monthly meeting last Friday evening at Ohman's Hall. President Bach was in the chair. After the transaction of the routine business the question of the action of the Douglas City Fire De- partment in restricting the use of the water from the city mains was brought up. After remarks by several of the members, a resolution was passed heartily endorsing the action taken and pledging the efforts of the Chamber to it's enforcement. Many other matters of interest to the city and community were discussed, and the secretary, Mir. Henson, was instructed to correspond with the proper parties.
 The Chamber of Commerce is a young organization but our citizens feel that it will fill long felt want on Douglas Island and are giving it their hearty support.
