Citizens Of Boise
Must Unite
NEED OF POPULAR
ASSOCIATION FOR ALL
Cultivation Of Public Spirit That
hGGomDlishes Results DutU
OF the Hour

There IS need in Boise Of a more
thorough and complete organization of
the citizens for the public advancement.
A popular association, with nominal dues
that would bring in closer touch all
the citizens OF the town. The Com
mercial club IS doing a splendid work
and is busiIy engaged upon many prop
ositions that viii be of vast benefit, but
owing to its character and the cost of
membership and dues must needs be
limited to the more prosperous Of our
citizens.
There IS woeful lack of fellowship
among Boise business men, that coop
erative spirit that accomplishes great
results This IS particularly noticeable
by the newcomer or the man endeavor-
ing TO establish a new business. There
is solid, substantial character 10 the
citizenship Of Boise, to the leading men
of affairs, which is not surpassed BY
any other community; and when these
men really want to accomplish results
they do things, self-reliantIy and well.
The splendid business blocks Of Boise.
for instance have been erected by Boise
money; the large financial and other
leading business concerns Of the city
have been built up by Boise capital The
progress has been slow but certain. The
foundations OF the successful houses Of
Boise in majority Of cases were laid
IN the early days. New conditions now
confront US, and these must be an
awakening to this fact.
The city Of Portland, Oregon. has ex-
panded more in the past FIVE years than
in all the previous half century of its
growth The character Of its business
men more closely resemble those of
Boise than anywhere else in the North
west Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane
sprung to prominence in decade. and
If looked for time as though Port
land would be distanced, but that city
has caught the new spirit and with the
tremendous backing Of its solid and sub
stantial concerns that have grown and
developed for fifty years is easily as
ierting her supremacy. Such a new era
should be ushered IN in Boise and as a
irst step a popular $4,000 club should be
organized Who VIII be the leaders in
iuch an organization?
