Jan. 4. Editor Astorlan The business men and the citliens of Astoria have an example set them by the proceedings of the chamN-r of com merce published In the Seattle Post-In-tclltgcncer of January 1, Wl, which It Is wise and well for then) to emulate. Every Individual In Astoria should read the account of these proceedings, and especially the editorial In the same Is sue of the "P. I.," headed "Seattle Spirit Around." Kwry word In this editorial applies aptly to the situation under the present condition at Asto ria. Seattle eltlmns (or the good of their city have undertaken to raise one hun dred thousand dollars In nuh, and in a very short session of the chamber of commerce thirty-two thousand of thl amount was 1'.UI, as Is shown by the list of subscribers given. Astoria's chamber of commerce has a duly to perform, which Is more vital to their future Interests than the obligations undertaken by the Seattle chamber of commerce, and It does not require a sin gle dollar In cash subscription, for the only obligation necessary Is for the entire community to band themselves together as one man, acting with one purHie, with a full determination that they will never yield until their rights are recognised. From a moneyed standpoint how much easier Is thU duty for the Astorlans to perform than the tusk so recently undertaken by the Seattle people? Astorlans should not tu t In any spirit NERVE FOOD If you have neuralgia, Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil will feed the nerve that is crying for food it is hungry and set your whole body going again, in a way to satisfy nerve and brain with your usual food. That is cure. If you are nervous and irri table, you may only need more fat to cushion your nerves you are probably thin and Scott's . emulsion of cod-liver oil will give you the fat, to begin with. Cure, so far as it goes. Full cure is getting the fat you need from usual food, and Scott's emulsion will help you to that. We'll ttr.i yoa a Bttls to try, V yoa CV. SCOTT & BOWSE, 409 feed meet. New York of malice or Mailt, nor be prompted by any such sentiments, but simply take a firm. Immovable, cool and determined ttaml that 11, i;uts porta Hon line which I trampling their rights under foot should from this time on be refused any of Astoria's t rattle or support until they shall hsve con ceded what Justly, honestly and fairly, and from every business standpoint be longs to the community. If such a pol icy as this works a hardship on the O. It. & X. Co., they have but to do their duty by the Astoria people, who will then as cordially and as loyally upiort them In eviy way. In this move, prompted only by the (list law of life, and that Is .. , .eservatlon, Astoria Is conducting herself In an hon orable way, and If this policy is pur sued with courage an I unity of ac tion, the result will eventually redound to the best Interests of not only As. torla, but that of the transportation line Involved, Stop for a moment, and consider what the business men of Seattle would do under simitar circumstances. One glance at the pictures of the members of the chamber of commerce commit tee would convince any reasonable per son that these men are upright, fair and honorable, and ready to do their duty at any and ail times, but Ihry would never consent to submit to have the rights of Seattle trampled under foot, and thy have with tlvm that entire city to a man. In Astoria are men equally as able, loyal and ready to protect her rights as can be found In Seattle or anywhere else. Now la your time and opportunity to hv to the world that no transportation line or organization of any kind will be r 111 It ted to impose on your rights or lake from you what honestly. Justly and fairly you are entitled to. Is It any wonder that Seattle has succeeded and overcome every ibsta cle while for years the Northern Pa cific and Tacoma fought and dlscrlnl nateii nitalr.st her. but sh has ridden victoriously over all these drawbacks, and stands today the most enterprising city of the Pacific coast, none more alert or ready to protect her rights or Interests anywhere else In the world. Follow this example, make a "S-nttlc move" and carry It out In a "Seattle way." which means to win. A. B. J. A.
