H0QUIAM PLANS
TO SEND CROWD
Weekly Lunchen Of Chamber
of Commerce to Be Well
Attended.

The regular luncheon Of the Aber-
deem Chamber of Commerce will be
held tomorrow at the Hotel Washing
ton and indications point to a large
crowd being present from the west end
cities. Hoquiam will send large
delegation as will Westport, Hump
tulips and Moclips. 1t is thought that
the bad weather will make it impossi
BILE for others to come.
One of the most important matters
to be taken up is the Port District
election, which is set for December
12. This matter needs all the atten-
tion the clubs can give it and plan
of education must be decided on.
AS the plan originated in Hoquiam,
it is expected that the Hoquiam del
egation will have some further in
formation to offer on the matter.
The proposed improvements to be
made on State Aid Road No. 9, will
also be taken up. This is the Hump.
tulips-Quiniault road and it is the in
tention of the two commercial bodies
to map out plan for expending the
money, when it is given to the coun-
ty for use.
Other matters of Importance are to
come before the meeting and a large
crowd is urged to be present.

Season Over State

That Grays Harbor will have a
special attention from the state fish
commissioners Office next season, is
the information given out by Depu
ty Fish Commissioner Clarence W.
White, who has been spending several
days on the Harbor collecting licenses.
White says that on the Columbia river
he is not compelled to hunt up fish
ermen for their licenses, but instead
the fishermen come to his office for
been neglected, and the license money
collected, is only secured after hunt
ing the men up and making the de-
mand.
This has been banner year in the
fish business said Mr. White, "and
everywhere the run has been enor-
nous. Our office has been worked to
it's fullest capacity and we have lit
tie time to make side trips. Next
season, a deputy will spend his time
on Grays Harbor and give his atten-
ton to the work here. 1 am glad
to see the Importance of the fishing
on Grays Harbor coming before the
people and within another year the
citizens will begin to realize that it
is one of the greatest assets the Har
Dor has.

THE COMING
ELECTIONS
Form the Absorbing Topic Of
Discussion in the City
Today
WOMEN FAVOR CHANGE
Joint Discussion Tomorrow
Night and Mass Meeting
Saturday
WOMEN FAVOR CHANGE

The question of the adoption of the
commission form OF government in
Aberdeen has been the absorbing topic
of discussion in the city during the
past week, and will hold the public
mind until next Monday, when it will
be determined at the polls. The ladies
have taken up the discussion serious
ly, and last week it was the topic at
the meetings of the Friends in Coun-
Gil club and the Aberdeen Civic I'M
prOvement association
The ladies have awakened to the
numerous difficulties that beset their
every effort for legislation along moral
lines under the present councilmanic
ward system, and the probabilities
are that the women vote will be con-
trolling factor at the elections, and
SO far as the Herald is informed their
sentiment favorS the progressive
change almost unanimously. If this be
true, and the ladies turn out to vote,
the commission plan will carry by a
very heavy majority.
At the meeting of the Aberdeen
Trades & Labor Council, Friday even
ing, Editors Clark and Carney We're
invited to discuss the Allen law. Mr..
Carney was present, but Mr.. Clark
failed to appear. In his absence, Mr..
Carney took up the objections raised
by Mr.. Clark in the Grays Harbor
Post, and showed their flimsy char
acter. The council listened attentive
ly for 40 minutes, and rendered the
speaker a vote of thanks at the close.
The features of the Allen law that ap-
peals to the Labor Union are the in
itiative, referendum and recall, direct
legislation being one of the cardinal
doctrines of the unions, and it is be-
lieved the vote of the union men will
be largely in favor of the Allen law.
This week the Aberdeen Progressive
club proposes to keep busy. The de-
bate tomorrow evening, in the city
council room, between Judge F. w.
Loomis and J. ]. Carney is attracting
considerable attention and the hall
will be filled to it's capacity. Extra
seats will be placed in the room in
order to accommodate the crowd.
Next Saturday evening mass meet
which a number of short addresses
will be made, several of them by
ladies who are taking an active part
in the movement. This meeting, like
all others, will be public, and all are
invited to attend.

Aberdeen Eleven Looses to
Seattle Saturday in Close
ly Contested Game
BLACKWELL'S STAR PLAY
Queen Anne Bunch Was Too
Heavy for Aberdeen
Lads


SEATTLE, Nov. 12.-Using the for
ward pass to good advantage and out
CHASING their opponents at nearly
every stage of the game, the Queen
Anne high school gridiron warriors
won from the Aberdeen High eleven
Saturday afternoon, on the university
campus, score 10 to ).
The Grays Harbor boys didn't nave
much of show against the heavy and
fast Queen Anne players, who out
weighed their opponents nearly ten
pounds to the man. The local team
made most of their gains through fake
Crlss-cross plays and on-side forward
passes.
Aberdeen Plays Plucky Game
The Aberdeen bunch played good
game for the size of their team. but
they canddly admit that the best team
won, a team that outweighed them,
outtricked them, and all but outgamed
them. Atcheson, quarter of the Seat
er on the winning eleven. Time after
time he shot through for gains, 20
to 80 yards at a time handled punts
with great precision, and starred as a
kicker. his punting averages being
close to thirtyfiv yards.
The local team had things their
way the first half of the game but in
the latter part of the third and fourth
quarters Aberdeen took decided
brace and came near scoring two
touchdowns, which, however, they tai
lied one in the last part of the third
quarter, the visiting eleven, through a
series of forward passes and straight
line bucks, succeeded in getting the
ball within the seven yard line of
Queen Anne's goal The Grays har-
Dor boys had two downs to make goal
but the heavy line of the local team
held them.
Aberdeen Comes Back
In the third quarter both teams
came back full of vim. Aberdeen
again kicked off to the locals, who ad-
vanced the ball fifteen yards. Then
Queen Anne rushed the ball down the
field on line bucks and short passes.
A forward pass, Baker to Dutton,
brought the pigskin to Aberdeen's fif
teen yard line. Two straight line
bucks netted about eight yards. Bak-
er made a long end run and. after
lodging in and out of the visiting
players, barely put the Dall over the
line for touchdown. Score 10 to ).
Aberdeen came back strong in the
last quarter, the Queen Anne goal be-
ing in danger on three different oc-
casions. After an exchange of punts,
Aberdeen had the spherod within
fortyfive yeards of the local teams
goal. Blackwell then made the sensa.
tional run of the day, making a forty
yard dash around the end for their
only touchdown. Blackwell failed to
kick goal Score 10 to ..

COMPLAINTS AGAINST LIQUOR


 HOUSES-J w Canning has filed complaints before the city recorder charging the California Wine com pany. the Arizona Mercantile com Tany, and the Melczor Brothers com Tany with selling liquor al retail without a license. Warrants have not yet been issued for the reason that under the territorial statutes a spo- cial form of summons is required. which the city attorney has not vet had time to devise. one of the fea- tures being that the date of appear arce must be set not less than five days after the serving of the sum mons It is not charged that these houses sell liquor by the drink as is generally understood by retailing" but the complaint is based on the sale of small bottles. Under the ordinances "whoesa'irg" means sell ing liquor in quantities of quart or more. It is the contention of the com plainant that if the defendants desire to sell a pint bottle legally they should take out saloon licenses which costs S1,000 per annum.
