Associated Industries
MOVING to Portland?

1t is understood that the Office of the
Associated Industries of Maine, which
has been located in this city in the
former Soule building, Market Square,
for the past several months, is soon
to be moved to Portland. The change
is to be made within very short tima
If the matter is met with approval at
the executive meeting of the organiza-
ton which takes place in Portland to-
day. The change will doubtless be
made so that the office will be in
working order in the new quarters BY
the first of next year.
Judge Benjamin F. Cleaves. secre-
tary Of the Associated ,~-.. ..es. was
out Of the city Tuesday and no def
mite statement has yet been received
from him in regard to the change. The
president of the organization is a
Portland man, many Of the Offices of
the largest concerns with which the
organization has most frequent deal
ings are located In that city, and
while the capital is in this city, it
may be deemed advisable to move the
Offices to Portland.
The local people will regret the de-
parture Of Judge and Mrs. Cleaves
and son, who have many friends in
this city. Miss Amorel Hanks. Mr..
Cleaves' stenographer, will doubtless
go to Portland to be employed there
in similar capacity If the offices are
moved.

Industrial Future
Of City Of Augusta

Judge BENZ. r. cIeaves to Speak on
|. This Subject at December Meeting
I of Chamber Of Commerce To Be
Held Thursday Evening Of This
Week.
Do the people Of Augusta really de-
sire to see the city grow along in
dustrial lines? If so, what steps must
be taken to guarantee its future? Is it
necessary to build more houses? Is
it necessary to pass ordinances gua:-
anteeing exemption from taxes? Is
! 1t necessary to have an open mind
attitude towards investment in new
| Industrial enterprises? These ques-
| lions, and in fact every phase of the
situation, will be fully discussed at
! the December meeting of the Augusta
, Chamber of Commerce.
| "A great deal Of dissatisfaction was
shown over the result last summer
when a bona fide factory proposition
was turned down because of lack Of
housing. lack of available local capt.
/ tai, and fear of competition for en-
ployees. Many a citizen who failed
, to attend the meeting was free in his
criticisms of the Tack of'punch" fer
those who did attend. Since that
| time nothing has been done to con-
vince the people of Augusta that in
! dustrial growth can be induced
/ through cooperation of all classes
Meanwhile Gardiner, Richmond, Win
throp and Lewiston have added new
industries to their communities ard
| Maine has demonstrated her indus
! trial advantages to the whole world
Factory managers have become con-
| WINGED that they cannot compete with
the smaller cities and towns in the
/ production Of goods at low cost SIM
ply because high rents and high costs
; for foods and other essentials mean
high labor cost. Add to this the
fact that Maine has cheap power
and plenty Of It already developed
and ready for use and you have two
big reasons why industrial expansion
Is imminent.
In order to get at these facts right
the Forum Committee of the Augusta
Chamber OF Commerce has invited
benjamin F. Cleaves. executive secre.
tary Of the Associated Industries of
Maine, and a resident Of this city to
make careful analysis Of the situa-
ton as 1t exists in Augusta and to

The movement to place the Revolu-
tionary soldiers stones on the lot at
Mount Hope was reported by Mrs
Swift. The plan Is a most admirable
one as in many instances in country
cemeteries the stones are in a way
to be forgotten or neglected to some
degree. The ancestors are most agree
able to the plan Of assembling the
stones in one lot, where they may be
cared for and form perhaps more
lasting memorial.
