Mr. Mclteavy also spoke of the netlon of the last Wash ington legislature In ordering that sal aries of fish ollicials be paid out of the state hatchery fund, and expressed ihe hope that the work of propagat ing salmon would not hereafter be Interfered with In this manner. The rush Club fisheries committee hns asked W. II. Barker, of this city, to use his Influence with the s-Vund cannera to have them urge Mr. Lit tle's retention, and, although the task semis a hopeless one, the effort will be made. Columbia river cannery men will alao petition the new gover nor In thla reapect. The committee takes the atand that the matter la one above politics and urges that merit should be reco gmled.

What proved to be one of the most enthusiastic commercial meetlnga ever held In Aalorla to .k place at the Tush i tub last night. The chamber was park"! with members of the club and Invited guests, and the program pre pared by the oiricers was au excellent one, A communication from Johnson Urns A i''i., of Armour. S. !.. asking In formation about Astoria land values, i rop posslbilltl-s. railway farei, etc., and a similar communication from Ed ward Hassan, of Allagheny, Pa., who wishes to bxate here, were referred to Secr-iary Lyman for teply.

New menilx-rs were admitted aa fol lows: Charles Heilborn, Jr . J. II. Sey tr.i ur, K. A. Taylor, Albert Dunbar, Samuel Schmidt and Andrew V.ung. The Installation of officers followed, l'resid.-nl Carnahan taking the chair. Mr. Carnahan named the following chairmen of the different committees: 1 -egislatlvr. O. C.

J- K- Gr.uke. roads and agriculturv. It M. Gaston. The president then called upon the chairmen for expressions with refer ence to the work that was to be ac complished Mr. Hamblet spoke of the necessity of developing the lumber In dustry, and said his committee would In- satisfied only when Astoria had its full quota of mills. Mr. t'ark.r said he had an ldi-a the transp r a:lon c .mtnir.ee would ax.n become involved, and that it would do Its best to hold tip its end. Mr. Whipile promised that the waya and means committee would work faithfully, while Mr. Gor don made n similar promise for the fisheries committee. After a brief statement, Mr. Gordon called uti Mr. Mclteavy. Washington's deputy fish commissioner, who made a most Inter esting address, the subatance of which apiieara elsewhere. Mr. Gratke's state ment for the printing and advertising committee waa somewhat of a sur prise, as most of the members had not appreciated the importance of the work which the committee hopes to undertake. Mr. Gratke faid judicious advertising was now the lever which moved the world; that use of print ers' Ink was to business condl!ons what steam Is o the engine the mo tive power. Mr. Fulton, the other committee chairman, was not present until after the business session. President Carnahan suggested to owners of factory site that they turn the sites over to the club's commit tee on manufactories, which has In Mew an aggressive campaign for a greater Astoria. On motion, a committee on health and sanitation was aided to the list of standing committees. The feature of the evening was the address of C R. Thomson, who spoke of "Ittbllc Spirit In the Community." Mr. Thomson said thnt an active nrtd orgiinlze.l public spirit was n'osolu e ly essential to the well-being cf the community. First, he said, stlck-to-it-lveness Is necessary; second, public approval of laudable work on the part of commercial commit teea encourages greater effort; third, thei shouliJ be proper rewnnl for the men who do things; and. fourth, a systematic plan of procedure. Including the work in cident to greater membership nf com mercial bodies, should be adopted, lirlefly touching upon the principles upon which society Is founded Mr. Thompson showed that co-operation la essential. In the East, he faid. the country Is practically developed, while here In the Northwest, where the pos sibilities ore equally as great, there Is presented nn opportunity to build up large Industrial centers that can not be found elsewhere on the face of the enrth. Mr. Thomson's address was very Interesting and was a treat to members. Profeasor J. C. McCue next addressed the club, taking for hla subject, "Arhb-vemeriis Past and Present." Mr M'-' V- i-p ,k of what had been done, but dealt principally wbh that w hich Is to be done. M ist Important or nil, be said, was the Iwl and Clark fair, and he urged upon Asto riuns hearty co-ojeratlon with the peo ple of Portland. Jp akng of the re gatta, he stated that the committee had always felt It had not the prop er support from the merrhanta that there was not always the propert spir it of co-yf-ratlon, although funda were readily subsrrlbed. He recommended Incorporation of the regatta committee, and that It be made a atandlng com mittee of the club, so plans could be laid ahead. Mr. MoCue'a addrera waa also quite interesting. The members and guests then par took of a dainty spread, prepared by Mr. Whipple. Full Justice waa done to It, and It wis very late when the com mercial enthusiasts departed. ADMIRAL EVAN.,1 CHOSEN.
