A PASSAGE IN DEBATE.
Mr.. Humphreys Views on the judiciary
in Politics.

A passage in the debate in the Re
publican convention last night that at
tracted attention at the time and has
been talked of today, was A. 5. Hum
phreys remarks on the subject of
Judges of courts Of record appearing as
delegates in a political convention.
Some of those who had replied to Mr..
Humphreys objections to the plan of
party organization proposed by the
committee, had argued that there were
eminent lawyers and judges on the
committee. Mr.. Humphreys in answer
to this said he did not challenge the
ability or integrity of the members of
the committee, except, that in a per-
fectly good natured way, he would
challenge the propriety of Judge Carl S.
Smith or any other member of the jul
dietary appearing as a delegate in a
party convention and engaging in party
wrangles, and debates on party policy
on the floor of a party convention. In
his opinion the unwritten law in force
everywhere in the United States that
judges on the bench should not be dele
gates to party conventions was whole
some one.

factory. In speaking Of the catch up to
date. and the outlook, the superinten-
dent Of cannery said yesterday:
You can guage nothing by a Satur-
day and Sunday catch. The fishermen
will come in for a holiday and We ex-
pect to run half time or shut down at
the weeks end in the early season IN
less, Of course, there should be a phe-
nominal run Of fish. Then they would
stay out; in fact they couldn't well
get away.
The season so far has been Eatistac-
tory and the prospects are good. We
expect heavy catch today and. in
fact, an increasing catch all this week.
The real spring salmon. the chinook.
are beginning to run in numbers now
and will keep on increasing. The boys
are going to have a good season. de-
pend upon it."
None Of the canneries are overbur-
dened with Chinese. The scarcity Of
labor will be felt more keenly from
this time on. if the catch increases,
and 1t is puzzling some of the employ
ers to know just where the extra help
is to come from in case of big rush.

Chamber of Commerce Disposes Of q
Great Amount of Business.

There was an immense amount Of
routine and unfinished business before
the chamber Of commerce last night
and the members present went at 1t
with will. A great many letters were
read from the congressional delega-
tion and others with whom the cham
ber has been in communication rela-
tive to matters of interest and advan-
tage to Astoria and Clatsop county.
The matter Of encouraging the estab-
lishment Of saw-mills and other enter
prises was taken up and discussed, cul-
minating in definite plan Of action be-
ing decided upon. The committee on
manufactures was authorized to inves-
tigate the land situation and determine
just where sites suitable for saw-mills
could be secured. ascertaining the prob
able cost and such other information
as might be essential. 1t is proposed
to put the chamber in such a posi-
tion that it can at once direct pros
pectve investors to available proper
ties.
Preliminary arrangements are under
way for the production of an elaborate
pamphlet illustrative of the resources
and advantages Of Clatsop county. The
chamber has been in great need Of an
exhaustive work Of this nature for the
purpose of laying our advantages be-
fore the capitalists and manufactures
of the East, and if the desire of many
of the members is favorably consid-
cred, the proposed pamphlet will be
the most exhaustive and attractive
ever published in Northwestern Ore
gon.
A vote Of thanks was rendered The
Dalles Commercial Club for the recep-
tion given the members Of the chamber
who went on the recent excursion to
that city.

DANGER OF OCEAN WRECKS.

1t is stated that the Atlantic ocean

drift hither and thither, and as their
