The Speeches Were Bright and Over flowing With the Coiitideiiee of Victory on Election Day. ' Last night the larg) hall underneath gymnasium was crowded with citizens of Astoria who met to ratify the action of the Republican convention and Inci dentally to listen to the views of- the Republican candidates for city offices. Tne gathering wtisone in which business men largely predominated, and all through the proceedings there was a Bplrlt of business that augurs well for .the result of the election on the 11th. All the old cam paigners were there, and It was a Repub lican crowd through and through. The enthusiasm was apparent too, and It broke out at every opportunity giving confidence to the candidates "unaccus tomed to public speaking," and renewed eloquence to the warhorscs who have "been there before." The candidates were lined up for Inspec tion on the platform, and they mude a 'inbstantlal showing. There was confl donca everywhere, and the determination to fight for the election of good men showed Itself a dozen times whenever any allusion was made to that Important phase of the present contest. Dr. J. A. Fulton, chairman of the Re publican city central committee, was vot ed to the chair, and "it didn't take him long to get down to business and tell what he knew about the condition of the political atmosphere. He utarted out by contracting tha methods by which the two parties hid nominated their candi dates. After describing the open and above-board manner In which the Rf pub llcans had selected their man, first by electing delegates In a largely advertised muss meeting, tnd then by nominating I he candidates after two weeks of hard thinking and an earnest desire to get the city should be carefully watched, and Its interests guarded at every turn, and this he proposed to do, If the people saw in to elect mm. Mr. II. C. Thompson said: "I believe that the next few years are going to mark an Important epoch In the history of Astoria. As our population Increases the limits of tho city will be extended. there will be calls for new streets, more lights, an enlarged lire department, ana the erection of new city buildings. I be lieve all these things should be given grave consideration, with a due regard to the finances of Astoria and the pockets ot our taxpayers. If elected I will work to the best of my ability. I believe that a councilman has many and varied du ties. He should find out the necessities or tne tax-payers, he should attend all city meetings, and should familiarize him self with the city oharter so that he would be able to vote Intelligently on all sub jects. It was his business to suhserv the Interests of the residents of his ward regardless of his personal Interest. That I will do If elected. I didn't seek this nomination. I thank the delegates for tendering it to me, and If I should be successful at the polls I shall feel grate ful to the party and serve the city to the uesi or my aDiiity.'i Mr. W. F. McGregor said: "I have been before you previous to this campaign, and I come atraln to ask the support ot the voters of the Third Ward. I had no desire to re-enter the council, but a num ber of my friends finally persuaded me to accept the nomination. Business men that had the time to spare were scarce in our enu or tne town, and I accepted It. I don't claim to have much ability as a councilman. I am a buslnes man who has been successful In business, and I think I can handle the business of the city in a competent manner. - Being a candidate I am proud to stand on a re publican platform. I will, If elected, do everyinmg mat l tning Is right and just iu me interests oi Astoria and her cilt zens." . Mr. Charles W. Fulton, who was In the auuience was tnen called for and was greeted with cheers as he ascended the platform. He began by combating the statement that Republicans should take no part as a party in city politics. If the party represented the . principles of i., unu mese principles were worth having, they were lust as srnnA an Just as meritorious when applied to city j wiien uppuea to state or na tional politics. Mr. Fulton then nr.J ed to pay his respects to the "Citlzenn- ticket, and showed how, while howling against rings, the men running the "Ci tizens party had developed it Into the runenest ring mat had ever been knnwn in the state.

"Along about the first of November,'' he said, "the mysterious mutterlngs of an evening sheet showed that there was something in the wind. Then In the mid dle of the month all the old Democratic stnd-bys-llullinlx, Thomson, Kinney, Bergman and one or two hybrid Republi cans, went off and were missing for two days. There was an Impregnation taking place. Finally on the ISth of the month, the long expected accouehment came about, but, whether it was a boy or not, nobody knew till next day, when li was discovered that the Citizens' pnrty had been hatched In nn odd corner of the Kinney building. .Mulllnlx was the pnpa, and the editor jf the evening sheet was the mother.

Dr. Fulton then went on to remark that he wanted the meeting to judge for l'selt of the merits. of the Republican candi dates w ho had I n n nominated In nn hon orable unil clean manner, nnd who were m the platform to speak nnd tell thase present what Id -as they held about city government. The chairman then Intro duced encn or the candidates In turn. tint i'. J. laylnr, who was received with loud and prolonged applause, came lorwnrd nnd said: "I am proud to be here tonight nnd to ny to yon as a Republican that, with probably one txceptlon, the party Is in 'he Held this yenr with a ticket of which It need not be ashamed. You nil, or nenrly nil of you, know me. Those that know me know who I am. Those tlrnt don't can ak their friends nnd neigh bors and find out. I have been before the neople before, and my record In the pub lic offices thnt I have filled can speak for itself. The Republican party mei during the present month and openly, fairly and above-board, nominated thlB ticket. What is It composed of? Most of the candidates are bright young business men, who have lived most of their lives 'inong yon, and who hold your respect and confidence. They know the city's wants anil are live men. Mr. Thompson, mmlnee for councilman in the First Ward, is a school director now' serving hi? 'coond term, and a rnnn who has given ntlre satisfaction to everybody. The leennd Ward nominee, Mr. F. L. Parkci, ' young, popular, and bright. He has ecu nssesscr of Clatsop county and has occupied that position with the yen greatest credit to himself. Mr. W. F. McGregor, who has received- the Third Ward nomination Is, like the other two, prominently Identified with the business nterests of the city. He hus been a cottiicllmitn before and has made a splen did record. Astoria Is on the verge of a rent change. e are going to build tip l big city around us, nnd I tell you li is Important that the people elect buslnes ni-n, Identified with Astoria, to look after her Interests. There Is another licket besides our own In the field, gen tlemen. What Is It hero for? To ele,ei some Democrats to otllee who couldn't get there uny other way. This yeni .hey begun to find out that the people were on to their ways so they threw Into .heir ticket the names of a few renegade liepublicaus. Hut they haven't fooled tin public on this occasion. There two tick-,-ls tire before you. All thnt you have to 10 is to choose between them. Somt people say that we ougtjt not to cam politics into city elections. We huvt .ud tho other way, and have found that somehow or other the Democrats Imtiti .iiateiy get hold of all the positions. Well, ,ve are tired of that kind of hypocrisy, and are now In the Held fair nnd square with a Republican ticket." Mr. Taylor then concluded by calling .lie attention of the meeting to the merits if each candidate In turn, and finished uu excellent practical speech by asking all Republicans to get out and work for .he success of the party. Mr. Hab.n, candidate for police com missioner, came forward nnd paid: i have held the position of police com missioner now for four years, and some .leonle think that I have been there long enough.

Mann concludvl by giving an amusing acount of his official experiences, and showing that It didn't always pnyi financially, to be a successful candidate. Messrs, Henry Nelson, Charles Lirsen. H. Bell and Chas. Holt were then called upon In turn. All of them made short, eurnest speeches, and all met with a splendid reception from the audience. Mr. F. L. Parker In rising to speak said that he didn't believe In making prom'ses. He didn't know what he was going to do If he got Into the council, for it was Im possible to forecast the matters tbat would come up for consideration. But he felt s.ife In promising his friends and the voters of Astoria that whatever mat ters he might ! ca!!el on to consider. and decide about, he would ha-d'e in a .Artful tted hnr manner, strtvfng to jive satisfaction to his constituent and the city of Astoria, The expenditures ot mr. jnmes w.
