Thesecretary read the call for the mee t

aertain the feeling of the members
as to the advisability of turning over
the funds of the Whitman Historical
association, to the newly organized
Walla Walla association, or continue
on the original lines marked out by
the founders of that plan. He said it
was also desired to get an expression
of opinion as to what disposition to
make of the property ot the associa

discontinue active existence. He said
that the most valuable assets of the
association, consisted of lots 5 aud (J,

Everything is in sight for the men who
can be coaxed into running for office,
aud who gracefully yield to the bland
entreaties of admiring friends and al
low their names to appear. Here and
there is heard of one or two who open
ly sav thev want certain nominations,
bnt in general the practiced politician
stands coyly, considering tuat it is
manners to wait to be asked.
From governor down to justice of
the peace, the list is to be filled. The
legislature will elect senator Mitchell's
successor, which adds interest to the
situation.
For governor on the Democratic side
there is but one candidate, but one
possible nominee, and his name is
Pennoyer. On the Republican side
there are several men to choose from.
Whether for president or governor
or anything else, the Republican party
always has a large and eligible list

For secretary of state, is Geo. W.

Mr. Hobson's idea and suggested the
reading of the resolution that had
been adopted at a previous meeting
anil which this meeting had been
called to pass upon, either accepting
or rejecting the idea. S. B. Smith
moved that the resolution which had
been read by secretary Holden, pass.
J. H. D. Gray seconded the motion.
The question having lwen put, Mr.
Holden thought that while it would
have been gralifving to the venerable
originator of the Whitman monument
fund, the late V. iL Gray, to have
seen a 820,000 monument on the exact
spot where the martyred Whitman fell,
yet he saw no possibility ot such laud
able idea being accomplished. He
therefore favored tho ratification of
the resolution.
Colonel Jas. Taylor thought it was
not proper to thus transfer the funds.
With equal propriety they could be
transferred to an institution at Port
land, or Astoria, or any other place in
Oregon or "Washington. At the time
of the massacre this whole couutry
w;is comprised in the territory of
Oregon. Ho thought that the monu
ment fund should be used in exact ac
cordance with the original intention
and made to commemorate not only the
name and fame of Whitman, bnt of all
those who perished at the hands of
the Indians al the time of the massa
cre. As to the Powers' bequest he
thought that should le kept, aud the
proceeds devoted to the establishment
or a library at Astoria. '

gone to the scene of the massacre, in

PERSONAL MENTION.
A little better knowledge of geology
would enable a young aspirant for
journalistic honors to know that pe
troleum is not found in sandstone or
soapstone. Almost any one, however,
will learn by experience, if he lives
long enough and has much experience.
Whenever any petroleum is found in
thissecbon, the full particulars will
lie found in The Astokian, but we do

tional yarns as facts.
Wliile indulging in the national

Celestial empire whose eyes are cut on

to appear before the city judicial tri
bunal to answer to the charge of opium
smoking, and consequently the dollars
to the number of five which he had on
the previous evening deposited for his
appearance, he will nevermore behold.
The Alaska salmon catch of 1889 is
the largest yet known, says the Alas
kan. Six hundred and thirty-five
thousand two hundred and sixty cases,
representing fully 6,000,000 fish, were
shipped to San "Francisco, and the
number of barrels of salted salmon
was G,930, containing 200 pounds
cfjeh. The total number of salmon,
therefore, was not less than 0,250,000,
taking five pounds as the average
freight of the fish in the marketable
cofiditioa. The value of this catoji ex
ceeds $3,000,000.

A Resolution Adopted.
At tho meeting of tho AV. C. T. U.
Thursday afternoon, the following res
olution was unanimously passed.
Resolved, That the ladies of this
union read with pleasure tho manly
and excellent letters of Mr. W. B.
Adair in reference to the exclusion of
prize-fighting or any form of pugilism
from the proposed athletic club of
Astoria, and they desire to publicly
thank this gentleman and all others
who courageously uphold the right in
this community in the face of the
overwhelming tide of evil which sets
against it so discouragingly in our be

Brenham 'A'an Dusen said that

fund, and in the Whitman fund
AV. AV. Parker suggested that when
the Walla AValla society had pro
gressed far cnongh it would b? well to
trausfer the fund on certain conditions,
as, for instnuce, when tint association
had expended $00, then this associa
tion expend or transfer an equal
I amount.
J. AV. Welch favored the transfer
because the graves would then be pre
served and taken care or. He sug
gested that a committee of five be ap
pointed to draft a resolution relative to
the matter.
S. B. Smith said he had moved the
original motion to get it before the
meeting. Ho thought it would be
anomalous to have the monument re
moved from the scene of the events
that it was intended to commemorate.
There was one of the historic scenes of
the Northwest; there had been enacted
a bloody drama, and what place was
more fitting for the monument in re
membrance of those tragic events than
on the very spot where they had been
enacted? He favored the ratification
of the resolution. After further desul
tory discussion Judge Taylor drafted
the following resolution, which was
nnanimonsly adepted:
Rcsolci'J, That a committee of two
consisting of the vice-president of this
association and another member to
be selected by him, be appointed to con
fer with n like comraitteo from tho Whit
man Historical Society, and that Buch
committee bo authorized to negotiate
with said Whitman monument society,
through its committee, for tho trausfer
of the funds held by this society, for the
erection of a monument to tho memory
of Marcus AVhitman, and his associates,
when said Whitman Historical Society
shall have secured proper grounds there
for and raised the additional sum of
five hundred dollars, to bo used exclu
sively for tho erection of such a monu
ment. Previded: That in transferrins such
fund, it shall be done in such a manner
as to give full credit therefor through
this society, to the pioneers who have
been instrumental in Taising the funds
now in the hands of the society for that
purpose.
Capt Gray moved that a committee
ot three, consisting of F." J. Taylor, S. B.
Smith, and W. B. Adnir lv nnnninfvl
to take action regarding the associa-1
tion's property in upper Astoria, and
make report at the annual meeting of
the association.
B. Tan Dusen was elected treasurer
of the association. Capt Gray moved
that tho money now iu the AVhitman
fund bo transferred to AV. S. Ladd,
the treasurer of that fund, to draw in
terest; carried. He then spoke re
garding the perpetuation ofthehis-
lime and place of meeting be desig
