Bay people could have their choice of a railroad or a seat in the King dom of Heaven, they would take the railroad first and then take their! chances on salvation afterwards," re marked M. D. Wisdom, this morn ing. Mr. Wisdom and President W H. Wehrung, of the Oregon Com mission for the Alaska-Youkon-Pa-cific Exposition have returned from the Coos Bay country, where they went In the interests of the Oregon exhibit at the Seattle fair, gathering up specimens of the various kinds of woods indigenous to that portion of the state. They also attended tne Marshfleld fair and the Southern Oregon development congress. "There is no use talking," said Mr. Wisdom, "but a railroad line in to Coos Bay would bring about the most remarkable era of development of their manifold industries down there, I believe, in the history of the state. The people there are great ly aroused because of the failure of the railroads to build into that ter ritory, and if I am any kind of a prophet they will have a lino in their of their own within the next two or three years, if ihey have to take off their coats and build It themselves. "Marshflold held a splendid fair and somo good races, last week, and that country will bo well represented In our coming stock show and races liorp. They expect to prepare a rattling fine exhibit for the Seattle fair, too, and were very enthusiastic over our coming down there to take up this work with them." COQUILLE couple weds. M.
