Recommendation
i We wish to acknowledge the kind
assistance given US by the County
court and its appropriation OF $500
II seems to US in view OF the efforts
Iput forth by the citizens Of Astoria
that the county may rightfully aid In
carrying forward advertising and pro-
motion work, as any benefits derived
are enjoyed as much BY the county as
by the city.
The committee has learned from It's
experience that one Of the great prob
lens which we must meet and over
come is the clearing off Of stump
lands. We most cordially recon-
mend the plan which we have begun
Of leasing these lands to practical
farmers for term Of ten years, Civ.
ing them all they can raise for clear
ing and cultivating. We also rec
ommend to the attention OF those
who are interested in clearing off
lands, the method Of burning stumps
by means Of blower, Porter Brother,
the contractors, say they believe this
method will solve the problem. ANY
farmer can operate one and the total
cost is about $500
We recommend that persistent and
organized work be done during the
coming year towards securing, II pos
sible, completed good road all the |
way to Portland SO that automobiles
may come from the Oregon metropo-
lis to Clatsop Beach. With the con
Meeting road we now have across the
soft sands, the most important auto
mobile races Of the Northwest could
be held on this beach thus greatly adj
vertising Clatsop county and Astoria.
These races would especially benefit
The hotels Of Astoria and Seaside.
We recommend that the Clatsop
Beach Chautauqua If possible be held
Turing the coming season. The
ground for that purpose has been pur-
.hased and the necessary buildings as
iured This cbautauqua might be taxi
IN up as private enterprise and
made to pay The promotion COM
nittee might further It If sufficient ,,
unds are available. as one plan has !
'een submitted and which will be
vailable at any time whereby a com.

OREGON ELOPERs BEAT THE Rec
ORD.-The Oregonian has an extended
account of the elopement of probably
the youngest couple that ever I'M
daunted faced the perilous Sea of
matrimOny. The wOuld-be groom
was only four years of age. and the
girl was one year his junior. They
were found wandering on the street,
hand-in- hand. intent upon getting
married and visiting a moving pic
ture show by way of honeymoon.
The grOom had a dime in his hand,
to pay the parSon. all the expenses of
beginning housekeeping. Missed by
their parents. they we've by request
taken in charge by an officer. The
bride had to be carried away, kicking
and screaming that Annie wants to
stay with her Jesse

THREE bankers confined in the
Western Penitentiary in PennSyl-
vania Us malefactOrs, spent their
time lately in exporting the books of
the institution, and found a shortage
OF $26. 900 in its accounts. There is
nothing surprising about this. The
only wonder is that SO many of these
Shrewd frauds could have found
lodging place in an institution as to
develop facts that create suspicion
OF the utility Of its refOrmatory
power. The Superintendent was
simply on the wrong side of the
prison door.

AT the meeting of the American
Bankers lately held at Denver, dead
men tOnk an active part in the delib-
erations and social functions. 1t
seems that they passed without de-
lection as bankers of various parts of
the country. some Of whom were
dead. These usurpers. knowing that
they would not appear, assumed their
names, registered at the convention.
answered at rOll-call and voted on
resolutions and accepted the hospi-
tality of the Association; were wined
and dined, probably better than they
were ever before in their lives. 1t
seems We have entered upon an era
of graft. which will inevitably be
succeeded by period of general sus-
picion and distrust.
