Astorian is to have a new industry at once that bids fair to place her among the foremost manufacturing cities of the Northwest a modern high class clay product plant which will be in time equal if not superior to any enterprise of its kind on the coast. The general reader perhaps, may be a little skeptical as to the claims made by the promoters of this enter prise for you have not yet had the opportunity to see the results of the test work that has been made under the auspices of the Chamber of Com merce. Those who are interested in this matter are kimjly urged to be present at the meeting of the Cham ber of Commerce tomorrow night. At this meeting will be exhibited various clay products made from your own clays as follows: Drain tile, possessing unique qualities, not only for drain tile but for a type of clays used in the manufacture of unglazed earthenware flower ppfsand kindred clay products. Brick of all kinds including face brick, paving brick and common builders will be exhibited and other various characteristics discussed from, a scientific and commercial stand point. promises a great future for the enter prise. With such an array of basic colors as pure whites, reds, blacks, buffs, the blending for desired shades can be assured. - Such practical matters as colors, hardness, reproduction and the prob able cost of the various finished products to the market will be taken up in detail at the meeting Monday night. Suffice to say for the present, however, that the probable cost of brick to the market will be very rea sonable f,or all common builders, but the established market price will doubtless govern the price of No. 1 face brick. These cost matters arc usually left to the determination of the management of the industry. The sewer pipe type of clays will represent also what can be done in the fire-proofing, roofing tile and terra cotta lumber branch of the clay product business. Terra cotta products can be manu factured from clays located in As toria in combination with other clays found in the immediate vicinity of the city. These clays have excellent working qualities, burn with slow fire shrinkage and are suitable to mould and shape into thin walls that will mature, or vitrify at comparatively low heats. This is an item of much importance to stockholders as it would.be a great saving of fuel and furthermore, reduce the cost of pro duction in other respects to a minimum. No announcement of recent years could rival in importance to this city the possibilities of an up-to-date clay product industry, equal to the iron and steel industries. Bank balances will increase and there will be anladded amount of money along all lines. The Chamber of Commerce is to be congratulated for its efforts to establish this genuine home industry. This city has been for the last 25 years trying to get a The artistic qualities of these brick brick plant.

It is now up to the interested citizens, if they desire this industry here, to further encourage the project to a successful termination by their financial support. Capital has been offered from out siders but if they get control of the industry its location might be a1 ser ious proposition to the welfare of the city of Astoria. It is presumed that Astorians want the industry and its monthly payroll. Now is the time for action and to get in on the ground floor, as you will receive first con sideration at all times. Hence, it cvi denty is advisable for the home peo ple to take the lead in this assured enterprise. It should be the policy of the com pany to stick close to manufacturing lines and other mercantile interests supply the various wants of its em ployees. Live and let live should be the motto. Patronize first thos who patronize the entirprise, in "hon or preferring one another." You will not be slighted but given a fair show to go in with your eyes open. You will not be asked for much $15,000 will finance this proposition for a dry-press brick plant with daily capacity of from 14,000" to 15 000 brick. You will be asked to sub scribe for stock at $100 per share to be paid in full when the proper amount is fully subscribed. No stock gambling scheme, but straightforward square dealing on honest business principle is what is wanted to build a plan tright to run right Incorporation under the laws of the State for the above amount will afely start the enterprise. Articles of incorporation can provide for an extension of the plant when ncces sary without further legal proceed nigs. When stock is subscribed to warrant going ahead, directors will be chosen by the stockholders who will, manage the enterprise. The ele ment of non-productive capital and idle equipment will at all times be avoided as much as possible. In this connection those who wish to further investigate as to the stand ing and' character of the party doing the test work and promoting the en terprise will find on file with the man ager of the Chamber of Commerce, J. II. Whyte, a dozen recommenda tions which you are invited to look into. Some are from bankers, large busi ness houses, professors of colleges, preachers, editors, attorneys at law, brick factories, and note in particular the one from the general manager of the street railways of Oakland, Cal. These recommendations are from parties in the East and in the West. Note also the further qualifications of a college degree of bachelor of science which speak for itself. To build a plant to manufacture both face building and paving brick, would require more capital than the above mentioned sum. It would mean the manufacture of brick by both the dry-press and stiff mud process. The latter process however, requires an extensive and expansive system of drying the products of the waste heat plan from hot kilns. But when the dry-press process is once installed and operated suc cessfully circumstances will doubtless warrant in a short time the extension of the plant to not only include pav ing brick but terra cotta, drain tile and other clay products as orna ments, flower pots, etc. Full to Overflowing k 14 (Continued on Page 8.) "One Touch of Nature Makes Whole World Kin." the When a rooster finds a big fat worm he calls all the hens in the farm yard to come and share it. A similar trait of human nature is to be observed when a man discovers something exceptionally good he wants all his friends and neighbors to share the benefits of his discovery. This is the touch of nature that makes the whole world kin. This explains why people who have been cured py Chamberlain's Cough Rem. edy write letters to the manufactur ers for publication, that others sim ilarly ailing, may also . use it and ob tain relief. Behind every one of these letters is a warm-hearted wish of the writer to be of use to some one else. This remedy is for sale by Frank Hart and leading druggists.
