And more often a business house is sized up by Jhe stationary it uses. A cheap letter head or a poor bill head gives a mighty poor first impression and makes business harder to transact.' Good printing costs no more than poor printing. The first inv pression is half the battle in business. You wouldn't employ a "sloppy" sales man; why put up with "sloppy" station ery, that gives a wrong impression of the importance of your business. Let us do your printing and help you to make that ten strike. The J. S. DellingerCo. ASTORIA, OREGON B. B. PARKER, "proprietor. H P. PARKER, Manager. PARKER HOUSE EUROPEAN PLAN.

Attorn Whallty 8Utd That H. 'Hawgood Aotuallv Hid Monty In lank to Conttruot Road at Raaton ablo Prlco Poop la Fully ProUetod. Tha apodal committor appointed by tha CnamUr of Commerce at the reru lar moetlnt lant night to lnvtlat tha propoaltlon offered by the Port land, Oregon and tkneoaat Railway Co. to build a railroad out of Clataop City up tha Nehalom Vally, and to com pleta and operate the flrat IS tnllea to Humbug Mountain by tha flrat day of November, held a lengthy eeaalon yea- ttrday morning and thoroughly threh ed out the Important matter. Chairman John II. Whyte' prealJed and there were preaent he other (our membera ot the . committee -B. Van Duaen. 3. T, Ro. P. J. Taylor and P. U Parker. J. 8. Talbot, the euper Intendont ot construction and right of-way agent for the new road, Judge J. Q. A Bowlby, who will repreient the road locally a an attorney, In all probability! and J. T. Whalloy, the road'i attorney In Portland, were pr nt during the aeaalon. Numerou queatloha were aaked of Meaara. Talbott and Wballey anJ the propoaltlon which they represent waa unreaervedly laid before the commit tee, and In auch way that a very aplondld Impreaalon aeemed to be left In the mlnda of all the committeemen. Judge Taylor for the committee pointed out how the right-of-way blanka might be worded to that the futleat poaxtnle protection would be offered to those who would be called upon to give the r!ghta-of-waya. How ever, It waa pointed out by Mr, Whal- ly that theae blanka already appeared to afford the utmost protection to all who might be aaked to atgn them. In fact, the deeda for the rlghta-of-way are not aaked for until auch time aa the road la completed and In operation. which aeema to be about aa fair as any proposition could be. But to make the propoaltlon all the more fair and considerate of the best interests of local people, Attorney Whalloy suggested that the president of the new road be communicated with by wire for the purpose of ascertain ing whether or not facta were not ex actly aa he had stated them, namely that the president, Mr. II. Hawgood, of Los Angeles, actually had the money in the bank necessary to build and equip and operate the road In case no fancy prices were forced for rights-of-way. This telegram was accordingly framed up 'by the committee and Manager Whyte sent It direct to Mr. Hawgood. iAs soon aa a reply Is received the committee will be in possession of about all the Information on the ques tion that it aeema possible to obtain. And if this reply is acceptable it ia quite likely that the committee will report favorably to the Chamber of Commerce tomorrow night at 8 o'clock on the occasion of the adjourned meet ing called' to glvo the railroad enter prise fuller consideration thnn was possible without a committee invest! gntton and report. It was atated that the money for the preliminary work of constructing this nv railroad waa furnished by H. E. Huntington of Los Angeles. Mr. Hnwgood waa the chief engineer for the Huntington California Railroad In terests for a number of years, , . , .. It la expected that there will be quite a largely attended meeting at . trie Chamber of Commerce rooms, tonight when final consideration lj given to the railroad proposition and Messrs, Whalloy and Talbott will be present to anawer any interrogations. It now seems likely that Astoria will have an other new railroad sooner than many had anticipated. From Clatsop City Into Astoria at this time, the new road will operate over the tracka of the A. & C. railroad, but so soon as the bridge permission, is given to the com pany by the legislature, it will enter the olty over Up own track. Rev. G. E. Rydqulst, pastor ot the First Lutheran church of this city, called at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday afternoon and made ar rangements, to, take, some of; the lit erature of the Chamber with him for distribution, when he goes east in a few days, first, to visit various places In Wisconsin, Michigan and Iowa and ultimately to, attend the exposition at Jamestown, Va. , , Not only will Rev.
