ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN
REAPS HEAVY RESULTS
John H. Whyte. manager of the As
toria chamber of commerce, has ln the
laat 11 months received 12,000 letters of
inquiry from people ln all parts of tha
world who are considering removal to
the Pacific coast. The letters were ln
response to an advertising campaign
planned and executed by Mr. Whyte in
newspapera in various countries, ana es
pecialiy In tha eastern and middle stales
of America.
Astoria Is making a rapid growth,
both in population and. Improvements.
The sentiment of the people Is aroused.
and they are considering tha building
or a seawall rour ana a. nair mues long
in front of the entire city, from Tona-ue
point to Smith's point. It Is Intended
that the wall, shall be built or logs, and
the area back of It filled with dirt from
the hills and slit from tha river. This
would enable the removal of the piling
upon which most of the business portion
of the city Is built. Tha seawall han
been designed by O. B. Ilegardt of
Portland, formerly ln tho -government
engineering aervlce. Mr. .whlte aald:
"It Is believed Astoria can build this
wall for between 1800,000 and 1500.000.
and there is no question that it would
be a great benefit to tha city. The peo
ple will vote on the question next De
cember. It is proposed to Issue 60-year
bonds to finance the project.
"Astoria's promotion and publicity
work la going along very well, and sat
isfactory results are being aecured. The
city spent 112,000 In the last year for
the work, and will Increase Its expendi
ture for the ensuing year to 115,000. A
terra cotta manufacturing plant to em
ploy a large number of people Is among
tho .certainties, and a number of other
large concerns are 'seriously considering
Astoria as the moat desirable place on
tha Pacific coaet to locate." -.
The greatest victory of Astoria boost
ers is seen In the Weinhard hotel, five
stories -hlsrh. 100x165 feet l id dimen

What can be done to stOD Portlander
from crowding the Vancouver cars ant
forcing Vancouver people X0 stand up I
from the business section of town tol
Woodlawn?"
The resldenta of Woodlawn seem tol
take particular delight in traveling on
the Vancouver' cars. On the evening
trips leaving Portland when Vancouver
resldenta are returning home after
spending th day in Portland, tbey ar
forcod to stand up to Woodlawn, mors
than half the distance to Vancouver.
One evening last week, 18 peopl
al a-hted from the car at Woodlawn.
Thev would rather walk from the Wood
lawn station on the Vancouver line,
which is several block from a major
ity of their homes, than to ride on th
Woodlawn csrs provided for their use.
The only appnrent reason for this Is
that the Vancouver cars make no'etops
long Union avenue, cutting down th
running time to Woodlawn about four
minutes, in tne morning tne situation
ts practically h same. The teachers
at the Woodlawn school. 10 or 12 In I
number, crowd into th 8 o'clock trip
of the Vancouver cars. The Woodlawn
cars go Just aa near to the school build
ing This trip Is the connecting ona
with the north bank train and la nat
urally a crowded one. This morning th
school teachers held down comfortable
seats while between 15 and 20 through
