ASToRIA'S SOLE BENEFIT.

The Chamber Of Commerce of a city
like Astoria serves the same end as
do the lungs of an individual II sup

which the civic body thrives, ana ac-
cording to the regularity and volume
Of that breath, does the corporation
build up, or lanquish The heart OF a
city is. of course. her wealth and its
energetic application by prideful and
energetic citizens.
Given the resources and the public
pride, any community will flourish 81
long as the means and the popular
interest are kept from stagnating. So
it is here. Astoria has much to thank
her chamber of commerce for in the
past. and she has much yet to at
tain, and unless this active agency IS
kept in working shape and fed con-
stantly by the fires of local ambition,
she must expect to be passed by, as
all mute and inert things are.
There is a movement on foot to
merge all the active agencies of this
municipality into one large, organic,
useful and effective Chamber Of Com
merce, and for the good of Astoria,
We hope her citizens will stand by
the new departure and make the name
of Astoria felt in source of public
benefit known. For some time a hand
full of interested citizens have kept the
old chamber from actual dissolution,
