HIGH PHIC12S.
The disposition on the outside of
ie C003 Bay country Is to deny what
fro called the high prices which are
apposed to be asked for real estate

tonished when he learns that both
wn lots and farm lands continue
be actively exchanged In the oaen
arket notwithstanding the sun-
Bed high prices. If he comes from
wa, or Minnesota or Wisconsin he
pints out that he can buy the best
fzrlcultural lands in those states at
iom ?35.00 to $100 per acre. If ho
imqs from Des Moines, Minneapolis
Milwaukee ho assures us he can
ty lots In those cities cheaper than
i can in Marshfleld and North Bend.
There Is no question as to farm
Inds that he is right. He can buy
lorn cheaper In the states named.
Vt when he comes to Investigate
osely he finds that there are some
lints of difference between Iowa,
innesota and Wisconsin land and
tat of this region. The cereals are
good crop and the summers of
ose states are very good, If cy-

re the dairy farmer has a better

skid In Holland where such lands as

gher price for his dairy products.
hero In Iowa, Minnesota or WIs
nsln will one acre of land keep
ree cows? Yet there are large
res of Coos Bay's tributary coun-
ry which will do that.
I Again, Coos Bay and Coquille
fghlandsl are Ideal fruit lands. The
tavensteln apple can bo and Is
used on such lands In greater ex
fllenco than anywhere else In I he
orld. It is not possible to supply

nds will afford profits to the hor-

The Eastern man also expects that

tlflc success and that it has been suc
cessful t6 a marked extent In com
munication between ships at sea and
between ships and coast stations.
How far it has been profitable In a
purely commercial way wo are not
able to say. That It has a great fu
ture Is as plain as that the telegraph,
the telephone and other modern In
ventions developed greatness from
conditions as open to derision m
wireless.
When a project Involving some In
vention of world importance begins
Its career It Is nearly always met
with contempt nnd its struggles
against prejudice and suspicion are
sometimes pitiful. Such was the case
wun tno uen leiepnone wnose siock
was, in the beginning, ridiculously
low, being at one time readily ac
quired at 25 cents on the dollar. At
present every share of stock in Bell
Telephone which was purchased at
that time represents $0,000. It is
not worth while to discuss the mat
ter. Whoever puts money Into an
enterprise of that description casta
bread on tho waters and It may come
back so watered as to be a very big
loaf. And It may not come back at
all. Wireless telegraphy will some
day be a great and paying institu
tion. The government of the United
States and all Its departments rec
ognize Its exceeding value. That it is
now controlled by United Wireless
seems to be a fact, but whether
united Wireless stock becomo3 a
valuable as Bell Telephone did will
depend on the way It Is managed.
The same Is true of any business.
Most of them In the Initial stage will
not bear jumping on to. One thing
we can be quite certain of. If the
United States government could and
would take charge of all these wire
or wireless teiegrapns, wnetner
Western Union or United Wireles3
and operate them as a part of Its
postal system or under some new de
partment, It, wouia save us tne
trouble of Investing our money In
the hope of striking luck in that line
of gambling. We could then pay toll
and let the government invest the
toll In developing the system.
Past Candidate Parker's Wall
Street Democratic National Com
mittee of which Tom Taggart Is
chairman hns decided to prod Mr.
Bryan into a plain, old time political
declaration of whether he will be a
candidate for president next year or
not. What they want Is to have the
old political horse-race style of com
petition between self-styled, barrel
tapping candidates for the nomina
tion. There are some competitors
being groomed notably are Folk of
Missouri, Johnson of Minnesota. But
these are not the men Taggart and
his kind want. What they want is
to pull In a Wall street man while
tho people are excited over the
"horse race."
Who says Harrlman has 'forgotten
Oregon? The great man is now at
Klamath Falls. He is buying rights
of way for new railroads in every
direction and is preparing to build
them too. Mr. Nier, one of his rights
of way agents, is now at Ten Mile
lakes purchasing the rights oe way
between Coos Bay and the Umpqua.
It Is nlso renorted that the right or
way between Natron and Klamath is
being bought up. No, Harrlman has
not forgotten Oregon, but We is lia
ble to do so any minute If the people
let him.
The news items tell the same old
story about crowds coming daily
into the city and being unable to get
rooms at hotels and In some instances
falling even to be fed. The story Is
told ngaln of yesterday's happenings.
Still the cry goes up for a hotel
anU still there is no hotel of suitable
accommodations. Why in tho name
of humanity and tlfe good name of
Coos Bay can't tho great city (2B)
get a hotel and Keep us luiure citi
zens comfortable?
Have you seen TJanlel's comev?
Get up about 3 o'clock in tho morn
ing and look at it.

The "Gh1)1w Tone" has boon famous union;; piano users for inoro tllnu
fifty yours. It gives the rate nnd delightful combination of SWEETNESS
WITH POWEI5, a pure, silvery singing tone under the light touch. u
rich, full resonance in the fortissimo passages. Hut this is not nil. Tho
tone of

wltli use. Age cannot niaUo it weak or "tinny," the hardest use does 'not
effect its richness or depth.
This is because of Gabler Construction mid Gablcr Workmanship,, tho
