OYSTERMEN MEET,
A Big Meeting and Much Interest Displayed
During the Sessions of the Associ-

DuriuS tno sessions OF the ASSOci-
alton.
Special to The PIONEER.
PORT NORRIS, March 15.-The day was
delightful one, everybody enjoying the
delightful outdoor atmosphere, and the
fact that the Delaware Bay and Maurice
River Oyster Association held it's annual
meeting here, made lively time in the
village.
Ihese meetings have grown to be in
tensely interesting to the people of this
locailty, lnasmuch as upon it's action de-
pends much OF the prosperity of the peo-
pie OF the southern part of the county,

was a change made in the Executive
Committee, Captain Harrison Hollinger.

ton, being turned down. He accepted
MS defeat gracefully, however, and the
Association was quick to see that mis-
take had been made, and it was generally
conceded that Hollinger would be elected
to-day.
There was large attendance of the
members of the Association, while all
ABOUT them were many who are greatly
interested in the proceedings.
The greatest Indignation prevailed
from the fact that the Senate had passed
the bill preventing oysters less than two
inches long being taken from the Bay.
1t was urged that this would he great
hardship upon the men, and resolution
was adopted protesting against such leg
islation.
1t was positively settled, however,
that something would have to be done to
protect the oyster or the business would
fail, and more than 5000 people would
be robbed of their support.
The Executive committee made an ex-
tended report of its work, but consider
able dissatisfaction was shown from the
fact that there had been much stealing of
oysters despite the expenditure of S6oco
1or watch boats. Some members claimed
that over 100000 worth of oysters had
been taken. Four hundred of the five
hundred boats are licensed.
After considerable debate it was re-
solved to add more watch boats and the
following schooners were engaged ::
PEARL" ebay Queen" and estate

The election was exciting and there
was general satisfaction when the follow
ing were found to have been elected ::
Collector. Benjamin Campbell; Executive
Committee, Captains Harrison Hollinger.
Charles McLain, w. T. Whitaker, Rich
ard Sheppard and w. w. Cosier.
The Oronoken Creek troubles were dis
cussed at some length, and it was decided
that the difficulties must be settled in the
Courts.
AT the close of the meeting everybody
seemed to be greatly pleased with the re-
suit and the new Committee is looked
upon as stronger than last year.

The Marriage Bill.

The strongest objection heard against
Lloyd's Marriage License bill in the SEN
ate is directed against the feature provid-
ing for license fees to go into the pockets
of the officials issuing the licenses. An
attempt will be made to change this so as
to turn all or a part of the fees into the
public treasury. 1t is not likely that the
clerical lobby will succeed in defeating
the bill, as the reputable clergymen Of
Camden have raised their voices en-
phatically in favor of whipping out the
Gretna Green scandal.
