AT THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
The second meeting Of the Astoria
Chamber Of Commerce for the month
Of April transpired last evening at the
Bond street rooms, with about forty
prominent citizens in attendance, Pres
ident ]. w. Welch, presiding, and
James Wallace acting as secretary in
the absence of F. N. Clark. Manager
]. H. Whyte was also present.
The routine affairs of the chamber
received the usual dispatch, and the
main features of the session were
some very wholesome talks on near
and pertinent matters by some Of the
best takers present.
Manager Whyte put the chamber In
touch with all he had done since his
arrival, and outlined some Of his best
plans for the immediate future, all Of
which was pleasantly received and
endorsed. He Is making a thoroughly
good impression and Is counted to do
lot Of genuine good for the cause he
represents. His allusion to tle pend
ing visit Of Mr.. Hammond made a
good impression and much Is looked
for when that gentleman shall have
come and made known some Of mis- big
projects, in which this and adjoining
communities nave so definite an In
terest.
Messrs. Folsom and Fields Of Boise,
Idaho, were at the meeting and each
had a good word to say for Astoria
while telling Of the means and meas
ures employed by their own live city
in dealing with the problems Of prog
ress. All they said was thoroughly
well received and was fully appreciat-
ed. They are representative men
and seem to have the cult of local
boosting down to scientific and re-
sourceful point.
Several other addresses were made
by some Of the leading men Of the
city and the evening was probably

The people of Ocilla will probably make mis-

the official organ of that county. Ocilla is not
large enough for two papers and the same reason
for two does not exist as it does in Fitzgerald.
The Courier will of course be moved from Irwin

published and edited by good boy who has de
voted every day of his life to Ocila and who is a
scion of a man who was loyal to the town to his
last day. and who contributed every whit of his
energy and ability to that towns best interests.
We know these things count for but little

doubt feel that it is to their business interest to
make that paper the official organ of the county
altho it was pulling against Ocilla while Wallace
