THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
EVOLVES A PLAN FOR AS
TORIANS TO SEE FLEET GO
ING TO THE SOUND.
A plan is being worked upon by the
Chamber of Commerce the object of
which is to enable the members of
the Chamber of Commerce, their
wives and families, 13 see the greitt
naval fleet of battleships as it steams
acfOi thft txean in front of the mouth
of the Columbia River, en route from
Seattle. W. H.
h?tlll UIIViVW
Little, the agent of the Loop Lum
ber Company of San' Francisco is
asked to furnish the ship that will take
the people of Astoria across the bar
and it now seems altogether likely
that the plan will be brought to a
successful culmination. .
Some of the smaller vessels of the
navy will visit Astoria during the
Recatta to be held during the last
days of August, but this will be the
only opportunity the people of As
toria .or any of the people of Oregon
will have to see the greatest navy fleet
on earth, unless of course they make
a special trip either to San Francisco
or Seattle.
The sDCctaclc from the mouth of
the great Columbia will be especially
interesting, because it is a grander
sight to see the fleet in motion than
it is to see it at rest. The Chamber
of Commerce will take steps at once
to have the fleet steam slowly by the
mouth of the river, and if possible, to
