The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1907-09-24
WILL ENTERTAIN
SEATTLE MEN
Senator Piles viii Visit Wal.
Ia Wa||a Thursday

From o'clock until 10 Thursday
morning, Walla Walla will entertain
a large delegation of Seattle business
men who are touring the state in or
der that they may meet as many of
their customers personally as they
can and also to see the country east of
the mountains and to get some idea Of
the general condition of affairs on this
side of the range.
Secretary Moore has received let
ter from them stating they would re-
quire but little in the way of enter
sonal and business friends during the
greater Fart of their stay in the city.
For those who do not occupy their
time in this way, there will be some
means afforded them to look over the
city and see what Walla Walla is.
The secretary of the Seattle chamber
of commerce has written, however,
that they will require little entertain
ing and that they will take care Of
themselves for the most part.
There is talk, however. among the
business men of the city, of having
some brief demonstration of some sort
for the visitors, to show the visitors
their visit is appreciated and that
Walla Walla is a first class enter
tainer. Just what the nature of this
entertainment, if any, will be. has not
been decided. In fact there has been
i.ue it is the general opinion of the
business men of the city that some eff
fort should be made to make the Wis
itors feel they are appreciated. 1t is
matter of regre. to the local mer-
chants that the distinguished visitors
cannot stay longer. but as they cannot,
the best use possible will be made of
the brief opportunity to entertain.
Among the number of the Seattle
people who are to be visitors in the
city for a short time, is Senator Piles.
He will accompany the Chamber Of
Commerce on it's tour and consequent
ly will be in the city for few hours
day after tomorrow.
