Oregon Hindu, If he Is a menace, does not mean to be. There Is nothing on Coos Bay for these poor, Isolated refugees from desolation and famine. Thero Is no need to feel or express any passion against them. They will go away again and their unhappy lives will continue to bo unhappy. Tho Hindu Is not himself a menace. Tho cor rupt, selfish, greedy Interests which have been guilty of bringing them to this country and which nro ready to undermine American labor or destroy American Industry are the laboring men's enemies. Tho Hin dus are victims. Violence against them is cowardly and uncalled for, and it Is gratifying to feel that the unions and workingmen generally realize that skilled labor is in no danger, and that the Hindu cannot compete with any form of labor which Is now active on Coos Bay.

TAINTED COIN LOOKS GOOD TO P0CATELL0 Boise, Idaho, Nov. 13. Tho city of Pocatello Is torn asunder by bitter strife on the saloon question. Some time ago tho county attorney of Ban nock County ordered tho sheriff to closo the red light district, and the order was compiled with. This ac tion deprived the city government of Its principal source of Income, li censing of these resorts having been in vogue thero for many years. In order to retaliate on tho county an ordinance has now been intro duced in the city council prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquor in Pi catello and the ordinance has passed Its first reading. If passed this or dinance will deprlvo tho county of Its chief Income. Efforts to compromise have been unavailing, and members of the council assert tho ordinanco will bo passed this week. Tho county attorney says ho will remain firm, and that the red light district has gono for good. Business Directory been EMPIRE Considerable agitation has Indulged in certain quarters with regard to the name which tho con solidated city on Coos Bay should tear. The general opinion was sup posed to bo favorable to tho name Coosbay or Coos Bay. It seems, however, that a large number of citizens would prefer another name. They say the bay Is composed of water and is an arm of the sea, but that the city is not water and is not an arm of tho sea but rather a municipality on that arm. How nbsiird therefore, it is to call the ity a bay. But then tho question comes up what shall be the name of tho greaV seaport which Is to be? The name should be euphonious, suggestive, inspiring and easily re membered. It should also bo un usual. Coos without the bay has been suggested, but few seem to take very kindly to that. A large number of the older resi dents of Marshfleld and North Bend liavo at one time or another lived in Empire, well known to fame as Em pire City. Thy like the name and It is quite often asserted on the street and in public places that the name of tho new city bhould b.e Em pire. The na:ne is really quite as well known in the East as Coos Bay. They say that tho city should bo Empire and the hay Coos Bay. Em pire on Coos Bay is a very sounding aiame. It would bo known every where as tho Imperial City. It Is not the purpose of the Times to adiocato either ono of these names or the other, but it would like to know whether tho citizens of tho peninsular which Coos Bay enfolds in its watery arms prefer to have jthls city called Coos Bay or Em pire or any other name. It will therefore arrange to take a vote of all who may bo interested In tho question as to what name tho voter prefers. In Sunday's issue will ap pear a ballot In which will appear the name Coos Bay, Coos, Coosbay and Empire and a blank left for tho voter to write In a name. Ho will sut out the ballot nnd put a cross against tho name which ho prefers, nnd then mall tho same to tho Coos Bay Times. It Is not merely a matter of interest to citizens of the proposed city, but also of tho whole district nnd of all who read tho Times. This proposal is to bo made Jn this manner for tho purpose of ascertaining tho sentiments of tho people nnd tho votes will bo received at tho Times office during tho week and tho result will bo determined y count each day, and tho final re sult announced Sunday, November twenty-fourth. THE BANKS Tho people of Marshfleld were not disturbed at the announcement that the banks had decided not to permit withdrawals by depositors to any larger amount than $25 per week during the "holidays." They under stand that It was merely a move to prevent money from being taken away from this locality and shipped east. Most of the more intelligent ones recognized this as a measure 01 cooperative protection and expressed full approval of the action of the banks. Tho present financial situa tion Is regarded as the most un usual, extraordinary and inexplicable In history. It Is believed to bo un justifiable and traceable to the ar bitrary action of New York finan ciers who have expressed their dis like of President Roosevelt and have not hesitated to lay the whole re sponsibility at his door. Yet every body knows that Mr. Roosevelt's ex pressions and acts have been di rected against "successful dis honesty." It seems that successful dishonesty is getting back at Presi dent Roosevelt. Yet notwithstanding the facts that banks have concluded not to allow withdrawals of cash in greater sums than $25 per week tho financial sit uation is Improving throughout the east. Tho large receipts of gold from Europe In New York City have restored confidence In a large mea sure and the stock markets show an upward tendency. All that Is neces sary is to be patient and in a few days the situation will have cleared and business will have resumed its normal condition. The Steamer M. F.
