It la to be regretted that owing to some ulterior motives the commute of the chamber of commerce were in duced to Ignore 'the newspapers of their own city ,and give Us patronage to a monthly publication that la un known outside of the city In which It la published. Such actions tend only to create bitter antagonism against an organisation which 'is In a position to assist materially in the advancement of the interests of the city and coun ty. There was certainly no Justlflabla excuse for the actons of the chamber of commerce sending away from horn for Its printing. The Astorlan has en. deavored to assist the organization b) the publication of descriptive articles of the granj natural resources of the city and county, all of which have met with the approval and Indorsement of the members, with possibly a few ex ception The press of Astoria have never antagonized the chamber of com merce but has always endeavored to assist them In the advancement of the city and Its future growth and pros perity. It Is for this reason that the press of the city do not consider they have been treated right. To give ad vertising matter to an obscure publics Uon is evidence that they have no con fidence in their home papers, and it 1 this that has antagonized the entire press of the city against the organiza tioa. ' The press of Astoria has always worked for the upbuilding of the city .and county. It has spent more time and money in one year In endeavors to advertise the natural resources of Clatsop county to the world, than has been spent by the deceased since its earthly existence. For this work It has never received so much as a thank you from the members of the late defunct, and never has one cent been contrib uted to even pay the postage on papers sent east at the request of people con templating coming west to locate. In all of the large enterprising cities of the coast, all commercial organiza' tlons devote their energies to building up home Industries and home Insti tutions. They not only advocate pat ronizing home Industries but instead of sending money out of the city to ad vertise the resources the money is in variably given to the home newspa pers or home job offices and very lit tle, If any is ever sent away from home. The result is that every one of those citieshave grown and expanded. Thou sands of eastern people have Invested In business and homes. Time was 20 years ago, when Astoria had a larger population than Seattle or Tacoma. Boards of trade were organized in those cities and the home newspapers were paid to get out special editions which were circulated all over the east The result is that after 20 years, As toria has Increased from about 60 JO to 12,000, while Seattle has Increased from S000 to over 100,000. Astoria could have been as large as Seattle If It had a commercial organization composed of the live, energetic business men. '" Three months ago the county court, by repeated requests, endeavored to, Interest the chamber of commerce In making a display at the Lewis and Clark fair of the products of Clatsop county. The matter was entirely lg. nored by that body, and no action was taken until It was entirely to late to secure any space,- and the fault lies entirely with the chamber of com merce, due to a laek of progresslv spirit that should have actuated all deliberate bodies, with the result that Clatsop county will be about the only county in the state that will not have an exhibit It being the county where Lewis and Clark first landed and which is replete with many historical inci dents, more so than any other county, ,a large majority of the citizens feel that their interests and the interests of the county were not properly rep resented, and It ought to have bad the best exhibit of any county at the fair. With the money that has been foolish ly expended by the chamber of com- ?ierce In Itinerant publications, which ave produced no good results, a splen did exhibition of the grand natural resources of the county could have been 'nVadeV but It seems as though the nonprogressive spirit had actuated thai organisation, and It is certainly n credit to the county that an exhibit will not be made. Astoria needs a commercial organ. Iiatlon. The old Push Club needs re vlvtcation. During Its existence of three or four years. It accomplished a great deal of good for Astoria. Almost every manufacturing Institution that has come to Astoria during the pu( few years has been through the rn erglea of this club. It was organised on account of the people being dis satisfied with the nonprogressive spirit of the chamber of commerce, and was an obselete, antiquated out-of-date or- canisutlon. The newspapers of Asto rla have no use for the chamber of commerce. Their interests are not identical The press is endeavoring to build up the city. UP IN A BALLOON Arctic Explorer Sends Message for Assistance. BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH WORKING FOR A CLEAN CITY. The Improvement clubs and kindred organisations are taking up the work of cleaning and beautifying the city In an earnest and hearty spirit They can do a great deal toward accomplishing this purpose, both as organisations and through the work of their Individual members. After all, the work Is an Individual one, and the best results can be ac complished only If Individual property owners are themselves enlisted In It. Every one Is Influenced mors or less by public opinion and by the opinion of his neighbors.' aid it needs aroused public opinion on this subject to ex cite the individual action which will result In bringing about the much needed Improvement ' Something can be done In this direc tion through exciting a spirit of emu lation. Beatutifully kept home grounds with abundance of shrubs and flowers, are both an object lesson and iii-tpiration to others in the neighbor hood to do likewise. If half a dozen people In one neighborhood set ear nestly to work to beautify their grounds, In a brief time there will be few places In the vicinity which will not show evidences of Improvement The primary step, in all cases. Is In the removal of the unsightly rubbish piles, and following that the preven. tlon of any further accumulations of the kind thereafter. In this work the city authorities can assist It should be made a mldsemeanor to dump gar bags on a vacant lot no matter in whose ownership It Is, or at any place save the garbage dumps provided by the city. Every one of these distressingly un sightly vacant lots has become so through thoughtless trespass thereon of people who, as a general rule, live In the vicinity of It. One dumps soma rubbish on It; and another, seeing that this has been done, followed suit, un. til the place is recognised as the com mon dumping ground of the rubbish or garbage of the neighborhood. Th owner of the property himself Is rarely responsible for this condition, which has been created In disregard of hit rights. For this reason there Is an element of fairness In the plea for the people in each block to themselves clean up the vacant lots in their vicin ity. Some of them are responsible fo the condition which has been created and all are distinctly Injured by it. All will be benefited by the cleaning up and the adoption of the rule to keep vacant lots , clean hereafter. Seattle P. L 80 800THING. Its Influence Has Been Fslt by so Many Astoria Readers.

Here's what one Astoria citizen says: Mrs. Helen Lewis, who lives at No. 52 Astor street, says: 'I consider Doan's Ointment th best remedy of the kind I ever used. Every winter for the past 10 or 12 years I was trouble with a breaking out around my mouth and Hps. Some times the cracks at either corner of my Hps were so sore that I could hardly speak. I could look for this an noyance as soon as cold weather com. menced, and It annoyed me until warm weather set in. Nothing I could do had any effect on It I finally read about Doan's Ointment and got a boa at Charles Rogers drug store on Com mercial street. A few applications oi this wonderful remedy cured It up completely and I had not had any trouble since. It is now over three months since I used it" For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents per box.
