Clyde Lines New Steamer to
be Named city of
PaIatka."

The Clyde ST. Johns River line ha,
decided TO build new river steamer to
run between Jacksonville and Sanford
IN connection with the steamer "City
, OF Jacksonville.
The new steamer is to be an elegant
affair. 1t will be of steel, 1877 feet in
length and AZ feet beam.
Up TO the present time the company
has not decided on name for the new
steamer, and while Palatka has not been
specially requested TO suggest one, il has
been proposed that we do SO.
The suggestion was made by Secre-
tary RoySter of the board of trade lasl
Monday night. He made the sugges.
tion in the following resolution which
was adopted by the board quicker'n you
can say lack Robinson"
Whereas, the Clyde S. S. Company
has recently let the contract for a large
steel river steamer, 1877 feet in length
and AZ feet beam, the same TO be hand.
somely appointed in every detail and
placed in the ST. Johns River service,
and
"Whereas, the Clyde S. S. Company
has not as yet selected a name for SAID
| steamer;
Therefore be it resolved, that the
president and secretary of the Palatkc
board OF trade are requested 10 wrile Of
iicialS OF the Clyde S. S. Company, en-
closing copy of this resolution and re
quest them 10 name the new and beauti-
ful steamer the City of Palalka.'"
But that isn't all. Resolutions in c,ld
print never tell the full Story-there is
no way TO know the enthusiasm of their
reception except personal presence al
the time of presentation. The crowG
was enthused. They took TO the ideG
with whoop.
Think what big thing il would be
ior this city 10 have this steamer bear
ing the name of our new and up-to date.

ages.
The name would be big thing for
this city, but it would be bigger thing.
for the Clyde Line. Palatka is faS
growing city; it will be in years TO come
the greatest patron OF the line. And
with that name there would be instantly
established such a community of inter
eSs as could be welded in no other way.
Every business man should use all the
influence he can command to get the
name CITY of Palatka" indellibly stuck
to that ship.
We need fear but one competitor. l.
will be the town of Sanford. Now San
ford isn't one of your slow towns.
They do things up there. 1t was only
last week that they decided 10 borrow
$500, 600 on bonds with which to builG
brick roads leading into the country
True ii hasn't the people nor the posi-,

Holley and a whole lot of people who
have the nerve 10 claim everything.
Then there is some country tributary to

easy as rollin' off'n a log to show those
