itested by many in the selection OF
prospective site for the edifice
there has during the past few days
been manifest awakening on the
part of our business men in regard
to this subject, and decided pref
erence for a Chestnut street location
is evidenced by many in private
conversation.
This opinion is seemingly due to
the fact that the great majority of
business men have not taken ad-
vantage of the free mail delivery
system, and cannot afford to do so
until such time as an evening de
livery shall have been established,
and the site located opposite the
Roosevelt building is generally re-
garded as too far from the business
center. This sentiment has not as
yet found expression in public. but
it the apparent opposition to the
site is as deep-seated as surface in
dications would denote it will in all
likelihood come to surface in the
Commercial Club meeting delibera-
tions this evening and at the next
meeting of the council, prior to a
formal decision of the matter.
The Enterprise acknowledges hav-
ing been asked to speak in opposi-
tion to the Central avenue site, but
we believe the proper thing for any
who may be interested in the mat
ter is not to shirk the responsibility
onto the press but to be present in
person at these meetings, and there
make known their opinions. There
has assurediy been no timidity on
the part of several who advocate the
site. and while the object of their
solicitation may not appeal to one
the earnestness of their work is GER
tainly to be admired.
