THE ASTORIAN PUBLISHING CO.,
THE CHAMBER OP COMMERCE '
THE Astoria Chamber of Commerce
was organized for the promotion of one
thing only, namely, the advancement of
the business interests of all classes of
people resident In the city and vicinity.
In view of this, and also of the fact
' that Its officers devote time, energy and
money to the building up of the city
commercially and industrially, often to
great personal loss and inconvenience.
It should be the aim of every business
man in Astoria to become a member of
the Chamber and to co-operate with the
officers in the laudable object for which
they as individuals and the Chamber of
Commerce as a body are constantly
striving.
Organised effort on the part of our
business men is the sure way to accom
plish things for the city, because it in
dicates a rendition of harmony and
feeling of interest among them that
stands for something broader and more
patriotic than a lack of public spirit
made manifest by dwarfed . member
ship in the one body that should wield
the greatest amount of Influence in the
upbuilding of the city than any similar
organization.
The Chamber of Commerce numbers
among its members some of the most
progressive business and professional
men of the city; its officers are en
tbusiastic and enterprising, and the
field before them Is rich of resources
and inviting. But there is need of a
larger membership and it is to the
business men on the outside that this
appeal is made.
The interests of Astoria and the busi
nes men of Astoria are identical.
HON. Singer Hermann visited Tilla
mook recently to confer with " the
Chamber of necessary improvements to
the Tillamook bar and harbor. Hon.
C. W. Fulton of Astoria will be able
to enlighten -.he Hon. Binger Hermann
on other necessary harbor improve
ments also when next the gentlemen
meet.which will probably be abopt the
time congress convenes. " The State of
Oregon is fortunate in having two such
representatives at Washington. The
rivers and harbors committee will un
doubtedly learn something more about
the navigable waters of the state than
, ieretofore. ,
1 THE problem of advertising the Lew
is and Clark fa4r in a manner unique
and profitable Is perplexing the fair di
rectors, i The press "bureau should out
line a systematic ' program for the
important branches of the work and
ended Judiciously.: Experience has
undoubtedly will, end money should be
no object, provided it is expended judi
ciously. Experience has' taught every
successful business man that advertis
ing, pays. -' y.f,t .
THE state supreme court will soon
pass upon the constitutionality of the
Initiative and refendum amendment,
and already the most ardent champ
ions of the movement are expressing
the opinion that the high court will re-
verse the Judgment of the lower court.
' GENTLY, dear reader, gently! Only
' a ypdgyaphical error in saying that the
debt assumed by the Chamber of Com
merce Monday night was $214,560. The
-i amount Is 1214.50.
The selection of Senator Wehrung to
; to take charge of Oregon's exhibit at
at the St. Louis exposition is meeting
v with cordial .approval in the state press.

SAVED FROM A TERRIBLE DEATH
The family of Mrs. M. L. Bobbitt of
Bargeton, Tenn., aaw her dying and
were powerless to save her. The most
skillful physicians and every remedy
used failed, while consumption was
slowly but surely taking her life. In
this terrible hour Dr. King's new dis
covery for consumption turned despair
Into joy. The first bottle brought im
mediate relief and its continued use
completely cured here. It's the most
certain cure in the world for all throat
and lung troubles. Guaranteed bot
tles 30 cents and $1.00. Trial bottles
free at Chas. Roger's drug store.
"I suffered for months from sore
throat. Electric Oil cured me in twenty-four
hours." M. S. Gist, Hawes

BuckUn's Arnica Salve will kill the
pain and cure the trouble. ' It's the
the best salve on earth for piles, too.

A VERY CLOSE CALL.
"I stack to my engine though every
Jont ached, and every nerve was rack
ed with pain," writes C. W. Bellamy,
a locomotive fireman, of Burlington,
Iowa. "I was weak and pale, without
any appetite und all run down. As I
w,as about to give up I got a bottle of
Electric Bitters, t'nd ofter taking It
I felt as well as I ever did in my life."
Weak, sickly, run down people always
gain new life, strength and vigor from
their use. Try them. Satisfaction
