The article appearing in our
editorial columns o f the issue of
March 19. regarding the necessi
ty of organizing a club to adver
tise and carry out the important
matters needed for the upbuild
ing of Mosier and the surround
ing country, was written without
our knowledge o f an organiza-1
tion here with those objects in
view. After conferring with a
number of those deeply interest
ed in the upbuilding o f town and
country, including some of the
officials of the club, we find that
the idea is generally endorsed, of
a meeting being called for the;

is safe to say that the ratio of
