woqld voluntarily miat hi aubtcriptlon
$10 per month to help tbl advertining
campaign which he believed would be
more helpful to Atoria than anything

tho benefit of tho city, regardueit of
bow much money may have been ex
pended upon any paat effort. Hie ad
vertlnementa were read tafore tho lant
regular meeting of tbo Chamber at

they elicited a ulvo of band-clapping
applauae.
ManagMr Whyte explained to the

made up hi mind to come to Astoria
ha had then expected that A tor it
would bo In a position to devote the
aum of at leaW25,000 t year to ad
rertiaing. ' With that turn, the leaat
amount the manager believet the city
ahould consider for advertllng pur
poaea, ha believet that tho f ntnro of
Aatorla would be absolutely aaured and
that within two yean the proof of the
pudding would be In tbo eating. Mr.
Whyte doet not expect to accomplish
any feata of alijtbt-of-band r leperdt
maln, but believet that judlcloua, sen
tlblo advertising will do mora than any
thing elat to makt Astoria grow, .
The advertising which the Promotion
Committee will Immediately place, will
be placed through the G C Chapman
Advertising Agency of Portland, and it
will cover every part of the UniteJ
Statca, but moat of it will be placed In

tatet and In tho classified column.
Without reproducing the , advertise
ment In detail, It may be laid that

Among tho various thing the Promo

"If you had come west 10 yeara ago
you would have been a millionaire now.
Jut atop and think what Keinse did.
There are many menf la your city as

Another of the general Immigration
adg which will be inserted in all df
the daily papers of the big dWa un
der the .head of "Business Clia.Vces,"
reads r "You who have been clerks for
20 years, do you want to die clerks, or

grow up to be a real men and property
holder? Out west you can win a home,
make a good living and be Independent,

tion hog food. And as Manager Whyte
advertises, a cow can be raised here in
the all-tho-year-round-green-grass coun
try as cheap as a hen.
Potato farmers are given pointers
showing how they can make $600 an
acre off of Oregon land and always get
the very highest prices for their pota
toes. He also points out the fact that
Oregon butter is always at a premium,
as it should be, because of its par-excellent
quality.

The County Court, through - Judge
Trenchard, has been asked to contribute
a thousand dollars, as the law provided
to assist in this great work, and within
six mouths from this tlmo the advertis

little, and before the expiration of two
years, Astoria ought to know whether

year in this kind of advertising or quit
it altogether. Is Astoria decides that
it pays there will be no trouble about
