IMPORTANT EVENTS Opportunity to Advertise the Re sources of the County) EVERYONE SHOULD RESPOND Astoria Day at the Lewis and Clark Fair and the Good Reads Conven tion o Juno 21 Should Attended by a Largo Delegation from Astoria. . "HW There are two Important tvents scheduled for this month that are of paramount Importance to Astoria and Clatsop county, and It la to be hoped that more Interest will be ovlncd than has been characteristic of Aaiorlans relative to making an exhibit at the E2 mm" ,Jil"Ul.Jl'l day at Me tne tair, set to,- fciuuruay June 10. This Is the day set IWt by the exposition management, not tor a display of the products of Clatsop county, but for a display of the usual enthulasm for which this city and county are noted, and which has won for Astoria a reputation of being rep resented at all public events, and who are always accorded a royal welcome in any of the functions of the state. The Importance of a large attend ance at the fair on Astoria day can be better realised when It Is known that Clatsop county has no exhibit at the fair. If there was any county In the state that should have been represent ed; whose early history Is so closely allied and blended with the Incidents which the fair represents. It waa Clat- sop county; and there Is not anomer county of such relative importance In the United States but what would have had an exhibit which would have ben one of the leading and most attractive features at the national exhibition. The government has made provisions for a aalmon exhibit; the Atorla school teachers, with their euat enterprise have made a school exniDi.. ana private Individuals and companies have made an exhibit of the timber re sources. By so doing Clatsop county was the recipient of charity, pity and Hon. not characteristic of an sntprnrislnr community. All these matters will be noicu by the Eastern visitors who have Informed themselves of the history, objects and purposes of the fair. Another Important event is the good roads convention which meets in Port lad on June 1J1 inclusive. If there Is any county on this coast that needs the Inculcation of lessons on th Im portance of road building. Clatsop county stands prremlnent at the hfad of the list. There has been money enough spnt on road building, but the oractlcal results are deficient. At this convention all the modern nppllanc will be on exhibition. All of the new and modrn roads will be Illustrated by the actual construction of road An opportunity will be offered to as certain the cost of various kinds of roads, a matter that will be of pecul- j lar Interest to Clatsop county. Thr will be. a discussion of road improve ment and the experiences of prominent men from all sections of the country .'hm there. Is something to show for the money expended. Mayor Surpremant. who always take an active Interest In all matt'rs that pertain to Improvements, has start ed the ball rolling by appointing s committee of five to attend the con vention, and It Is to be hoped that all will attend. Th county court at Its meeting next Wednesday will no doubt appoint five to reprint the county, and it is probable that the fhamler of Commerce will appoint five, that being the number that each of thse bodies are entitled to. Clatsop county does not m-ed any more county plows nor rock crushers, but a knowledge of road building to the end hat its magnifi cent agricultural lands may be peopled hv the 4 iternrlHinK farmam of the east, who will take advantage of tne many Induct merits that can be offered whfn they can buy a farm acommible to the market by modern roads. While it is nrobably true, that road building In Clatsop county Is expen slve, yet th" am was true of road building In the Willam tte valley ar.d other sections of th"' state, neaiiy all of which have good roads and this Is the (rrea'CHt Inducement a county can off.r to Intending Inventors. Tlie farm lne Industry of Clatson county has ben neglected In the efforts to build un the salmon and lumber Industries, but history Is authority for the state' ment, that the most prosperous cities In the wot id are those back'd up by agricultural Industries, and particular ly In Clatsop county, where a failure v i imv, Two Piece m vr w $10.00 Per Suit j& P. A. STORES j& Keeps a Dressy Shop for Dressy People. of cropa was never known. It la an Im portant matter worthy of more study and consideration than has heretofore been accorded It. Clatsop county needs farmers and It must have- thtn. and the first work is the building of good county roads. Lands can not be clear ed nor Improved without roada. Crop ran not be marketed without roads. Farmers will not locate In a county where these conditions do not exist The sooner that the people of Astoria and Clatsop county reallie the Impor tance of these questions, the sooner will they be.
