The Salem Business Mems League is
about to institute the time honored Gus

mended that the armory be rented for

mercal club had folmerly voted $500
towards putting on the fair and in order
to keep expenses within this amount,
the armory win probably be used for
the afternoon and evening program of
Monday, July 8.
One cent postage came up for discus

dueed rate, while Walter L. Denton
argued that one cent postage was play
ing into the hands of the mail order
houses, as they could ship their mail
by freight or express to any large city
and then take advantage OF the ono
cent rate.
The Stevens bill was to have come up
for consideration but the matter was
postponed until the League Should be
more largely attended.
Solicitation among business men for
subscriptions for various enterprises in
the city was the principal subject dis
cussed. Many persons have beer solicit.
ing from business men witl)lt the ap
proval of the league. AS ono Of the OBJ
iects of the Commercial club was to
prevent or at least regulate soliciting,
the general opinion was that some ac-
tion should be taken.
