CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.
Is Planning for Vigorous Campaign
for Additional Manufactures
and Population.

AT meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Chamber of Commerce was
called Thursday afternoon, by Presi-
dent E. C. Miller, for the purpose of
outlining definite plan of work for
the chamber, and to take steps to-
ward adding materially to the men,
bership of the organization as well
as its monthly income. At present
the membership dues barely meet
fixed charges, leaving nothing for
publicity work.
President MILLER, who has taken
hold of the work with enthusiasm, is
close observer and is perfectly fam
liar with the methods adopted in
other cities for the promotion of
prosperity, and advanced several sug.
gestions for the improvement of the
Aberdeen Chamber of Commerce. The
membership is not one-fifth what it
should be, and would be if all who
profited by it's work were in it's
ranks. Aberdeen, in common with
all cities, has its full quota
OF shirkers from the labor
aud expense of the work that has
made many of them wealthy. and
probably always will have. But
there is large number of citizens
who are willing to assist in making
their holdings more valuable. Yet find
the present monthly dues more than
they are able to pay. To accomo-
date those, the bylaws may be amend
ed so as to provide for classified
ton of membership so as to embrace
all in the good work who are willing
to contribute according to their means
to the upbuilding of Aberdeen and
the Grays HarbOr country.
1t was decided to move the head
quarters of the chamber to a larger
room on the same floor of the Finch
building, Room No. 535, and to begin
at once a campaign for additional
members.
The matter of connecting South Alb
erdeen with the new southside coun-
ty road was brought up as an urgent
matter, and was referred to the CON-
mittee on municipal affairs, which
will meet this evening in the office
of City Engineer Ewart, and endeav-
