MOMENTOUS
TOPICS ARISE
Chamber of Commerce Holds
One Of Most Important
Meetings in History
FRAUCHT WITH INTEREST
Plan for City-0wned Factory
Sites and Tax Levy
for Publicity

The weekly luncheon of the Chamb-
er of Commerce, Tuesday at Hotel
Washington, was the best attended in
several months, and the meeting was
occupied with some of the most inn
portant topics from the viewpoint of
the progress of Aberdeen. A bill
framed by Edward c. Finch, which
has been introduced in the legislature
by the three representatives from
Chehalis County, is capable of far
reaching consequences.
Briefly, the bill permits cities of
the Second class to create waterways
by digging canals or otherwise, to be
owned and controlled by the city for
ever, with authority to condemn or
purchase the lands necessary, payment
to be made by an annual tax not ex-
ceeding three mills. The land on the
waterways are to be leased to manu-
featuring plants.
The plan, as outlined by Mr.. Finch,
contemplates the requirement of a
strip of land, 900 feet wide, through
the center of which canal would be
dug 300 feet wide. leaving manufac
turing sites on each side of a depth of
300 feet, to be leased at a reasonable
rental for not exceeding thirty years.
The bill copy of which reached
the Herald yesterday, has been ap-
parently we'll conceived, and is calcu-
lated to permit Aberdeen to secure
not only municipal owned docks but
manufacturing sites as well, and the
Chamber heartily endorsed the bill.
Another bill, also the child of the
fertile brain of Mr.. Finch, would ef-
fectually end the present state of af
fairs, whereby comparatively small
number of men are permitted to ad-
vertise the city while all participate
in the results. This act, which author

Is the Opinion Of a Con-

Oregon, California and British Co
lumbia. Mr.. Ewart is nothing if not
conservative.
The Panama canal will double the
value of Pacific Coast stumpage. This
prediction has frequently been made
since the construction of the canal
was undertaken and as the compile
ton of that great project is very
rapidly approaching it would look as
if there ought already to be some in
dication of the predicted effect on
timber values, if the expected in
crease is to be realized.

relief from the depression has been

There is every indication that the
recent improvement will be perma-

for the lumberman of the Pacific
Coast is just being entered upon. This
is due mainly to the general recov-
cry of business throughout the coun-
try and the resumption of buying by
the railroads, whose requirements
were for a long time kept at the min

The most important movement pO.
litically speaking ever undertaken in
Chehalis county, was launched Tues
day at meeting of the County Demo
cratic Central Committee, when "The
Democratic party of Chehalis county"
was organized. This organization, the
complete plans of which are printed
below, contemplates the gathering ill
to one organization all the progressive
voters in the county, every man and
woman who favors the old democratic
slogan, Equal Rights for All, and
Special Privileges for None," and who
are willing to assist in bringing this
democratic ideal into governmental
reality. All such will be invited to

cinct, it is believed that a great ma
jority of the 5000 votes in Chehalis
county who really desire government
of the people, by the people and for
the people, will in short time be
lined up on the side of the administra-
tions of Woodrow Wilson and Govern
or Lister, willing to assist those ex-
ecutives in bringing their ideal into
fruitition.
The Central Idea.
The central idea is to promote Dem
ocratic ideas-to encourage the people
to reason together-tO assist those
who fight on the side of the people
to keep posted on current events-to
protest against the expose of all move
ments inimical to the welfare of the
public-to distribute literature-to see
the party pledges to the people are
kept-and generally to make the Dem
ocratic party the instrument through
which the high aspirations of the AM
erican people can find expression and
realization.
Organization Completed.
The organization was completed by
the election of an executive committee
of nine members, who, following the
central committee meeting, met and
organized by the election of ]. J.
Carney, president; T. p. Horn, secre-
tary and Geo. H. Shaw, treasurer.

committee are, w. F. Wagner, of Sat

CHICAGO, Jan 29.-Criticism OF

burden of an address here last night

"The business of tomorrow" said
Col. Lewis, "is to correct the errors

lation. This nation has forgotten the
doctrine of state sovereignty in home
affairs, and in the fascination of the
unsurped national authority has
plunged into regulating the citizen in
his private conduct of his personal
affairs until it has regulated business
to the verge of confiscation and rele.
gated the citizen to the plane of a de.
pendent on government favor.

by the government to be dishonest
and his business to be a fraud. No
small business man aspires to equal

tional regulation has now become ma
tional strangulation Of many noble
men and many worthy things.
Wants Less Supervision.
What this country needs is more

government over the men. More lib

and personal conduct and less of ma.
