CPOKANE Is having more than Its
ordinary sharo o trouble, accord
ing to tho Spokesman Keview of that
city. The complaint Is made that Its
gas and electricity is of an inferior
quality. Says tho Spokesman:
"Corporation Counsel h. II. Ham
blen Is preparing a now ordinance to
be Introduced by Councilman N. S.
I'ratt and to provide for a city In
spector of electric lights, gas, electric
wiring and gas Installation. Tho or
dinance will provide a penalty for Its
violation.
"Tho new ordinance is tho out
growth of a declaration made by
Councilman I'ratt recently that tho
quality of gas furnished consumers
In this city Is far below tho lcqulrcd
Htuudard and tho expressed belief that
tho same is true Of the electilc light.
Most of tho coiiucilmcn were agreed
that tho quality of gas furnished is
far inferior to what it should bo.
There uiih less complaint about the
electric lights, although tho belief
sounicd goneral that tho candle power
of tho aio lamps Is below requirements.

pOH several days past mysterious
pasteboard cards about two
inches wide and two feet In length
liavo been making their appearance
around Marshfleld and North Bend.
On tho cards are printed the words,
"It Will Bo Built." No ostentation
marked the Initial appearance of tho
cards; fow peoplo knew tho meaning
of tho Inscription on the long narrow
pasteboard when first they began to
make their appearance In store and
olllco windows. Inquiry developed
tho fact that tho words referred to
tho Coos-Douglas electric railroad.
Soon everybody came to know this
and gradually tho first feelings of
surprisO and curiosity died away Into
nonchnlcnt acceptance and the mys
terious card boards lost their glam
our. Now after what has doubtless ap
peared ot outsiders as weeks of inac
tion on tho part of Coos Bay people
regarding the olcctric road has cul
minated and Coos Bay can send tho
news broadcast that $50,000 lias boon
subscribed for tho proposed electric
link botween Douglas county and
Coos. That leaves a total with tho
Lane quite nnturally takes the po3i
tion that when the city of Portland
give3 awny n franchise its wording
should bo straight, clear, and to the
point, and not hidden In a variety of
catch phrases.

CENSUS ItEPOKT.
A CAREFUL study of the lumber
and timber report of the Census
Department published elsewhere In
these columns will not be amiss. The
department has compiled some
highly Interesting figures dealing
with saw mills, logging camps,
values of timber and sawed logs and
the growth of tho industry. It is
pleasing to note that the figures com
piled by the department show that
since 1900 the most rapid growth of
tho logging Industry has been among
the Pacific Coast states. Nothing
could Illustrate more clearly the de
velopment of this section of the
United States.
