City meeting of the Republican State Gen.
trail Committee for the Fifth Congressional
District It was the initial formal meet
ing of the committee, and all its members
William l.. Toplitz. G. s. Laumeister, A.
L. Stefson and John E., Richards. of San
Francisco, w. B. Lawrence of San Mateo.
James w. Rea and William Moir OF Santa
Clara County-were present.
The meeting was called to order by P.
Alexander Bergerot, chairman of the Red
wood City meeting. He stated the general
purposes for which the committee had
been called into existence and directed
their attention particularly to the Red
wood City resolution which recommended
that the method and supervision of select
ing district delegates to the State and dis
trict conventions be left in the hands of
the various county committees.
The committee proceeded to effect it's
organization then, and James w. Rea was
selected as chairman and John E. Rich
ards as secretary. Then followed gen.
eral and informal discussion of the pow
ers of the committee and the manner in
which these powers should be exercised
by the committee as whole and by its in
dividual mem bers.
During this discussion, which lasted for
some time and covered the ground pretty
thoroughly, the prevailing consensus OF
opinion was that the details of the selec-
ton of delegates should be relegated to
the local organizations of the party.
1t was finally decided that, in order to
give the members of the committee an
opportunity in which to consult the wishes
of the constituents of their various local
tiles, an adjournment should be taken un-
til next Tuesday morning at IL o'clock,
and such action was duly taken.

opportunity of conveying his dreams to
impressions of nature-a delightful occu-
patton which Mr.. Mersfelder declares has
influenced his brush and inspired him to
creditable efforts.
"a Foggy Morning in the Oaks" is one
of the large paintings. At first glance it
resembles Keith, but a second look dis
closes the different technique and treat
ment of color. 1t is painted in a gray key
and represents an opening among gnarled
and massive trees, with The cold, foggy at
mosphere dominating everything. The
color scheme is in gray-greens deepening
from the misty light to dun shadows,
In all, though inclined to be impression
istic, it is strong picture.
Another characteristic painting with
quality" as its chief motive is "The
Restless Sea"-a large canvas portraying
the ocean in angry mood. The artist is
happy enough in his idea of color of ocean
waves, and strong in his light effects, and
besides the murky, stormy distance and
overhanging sky are really impressive.
The most striking picture is Evening
in the Forest" There is in it something of
the earlier style of treatment. attractive in
a way and unconventional, and the subject
offering vast possibilities in the effect of
sunlight bursting through an open space
has been conscientiously studied. A food
of evening sunshine touches the trees and
reveals some of the colors of autumnal
foliage. This is the center of attraction
for the eye, and il is treated with lumin-
Gus brush. Behind are the shadows, blue
and dark, and over all an air of mystery.

was received here to-day from the South

points for the event. Notwithstanding
this a large number of visitors are ex.

centers by line of her own, and owing to
Eureka's westward position the distance
from the coast to the Orient would be
much shortened.
Martin Wallace of Portland affirmed that
Portland had taken the matter in hand in
earnest and would Immediately put on
better and larger boat, which would make
Eureka its terminus. Although terminal
rates could not be guaranteed to start
with they would surely come. He assured
the chamber that nothing that San Fran

Navigation Company to pull off the

clared that Eureka's emancipation had
