The morning Astorian. [volume] (Astoria, Oregon) 1899-1930, 1903-09-22

The Hotel World, in an editorial on
the value of good hotel, has this to
say. William f. Curtis, the famous
correspondent, who has Travelled in
every country on the globe, and been
boarder at the Waldorf-Astoria, New
York; the Cecil, Lcndon; the Conti-
mental, Paris, and enjoyed the comforts
of the kalns of India and Persia, de-
clares that nothing helps town SO
much as a good hotel. He quotes the
trifing influence the building of new
courthouse OF other public building has
on town compared with that of
modern hotel and places the new hotel
above every other effort to advertise
and help town to dignified position"
No man is qualified to speak more ac-
curately on this subject than Mr.. Cur
tis and his observations have appli-
cation in Astoria A modern, up-to-
date hotel here would fill a long-felt
want and there will never be a more
auspicious time for one to be built.
Portland's hotel Accommodations are now
Inadequate for the travelling public and
with the 1905 fair coming on, it will be
swamped. Portland may may build
more but 1t is hardly probable that 1t
will build in time, any more first-class,
or even second-class. hotels.
Astoria is in position to catch the
overplus. The fair grounds are on the
A. & c. railroad, and every Astoria
train win be in plain view of the
crowds. A large sign should be erect
ed opposite the grounds telling how
long run to the city founded by John
jacob Astor and to the Pacific ocean
and the same sign should give assur-
ance Of good hotel Accommodations. AS
torla is in position to reap immediate
and future results from the coming
fair, but the erection of hotel is nee
essary to secure fullest results.
Aside from future prospects there is
demand for a modern hotel now. II
need not be as large as the Hotel Port
land but of proportions to meet the de-
mands and Of modern equipment. Such
building, hotel men say. should be
good Investment in Astoria. It's worth |
