"Good evonlng, have you written your Portland wholesaler a personal invitation to .attend the Orecon-Ida- move toward bigger sales next sea son and principally It will be a step towards securing a greater and a better Coos Bay which every ono here Is hoping for." "There are somehlvc boosters here who hae written who got into the game on the Jump, and who have got results. Geo. N. Bolt of the Coos Bay Cash store, was one of the first of these and a letter that he mailed the latter part of Ia3t week brought an answer yesterday. "This 'particular letter was ad dressed to M. Seller and Company of Portland, one of the largest wholesale firms there and this Is what thoy- wrote Jn reply: " 'We are in receipt of your kind personal invitation of July 27th to attend the Oregon Idaho Develop ment ?La"fues?hIc1i will meet in Marshfield Aug. 2,0th and 21st, 1909.

We fully realize that Marshfield Is Just ns much a part of Oregon as Portland, or any other city, and we sliould all hang to gether for our mutual Interest. " 'We likewise realize that Coos Bay has a gr,eat future before It and has one of the finest harbors on the coast with unlimited resources, and only needs adequate transportation to mnke It grow by leaps and bounds. " 'We shall at all times leave no stone unturned to help your success in every way possible, for what helps one helps all.'

WIT CITY TO PAY THE COST (Continued from page 1.1 tine and let the others suffer the consequent delay. The city engineer was ordered to prepare plans and specifications for the construction of a sewer on Cen tral avenue from Fourth to Sixth street. Mrs. C. W. Tower was refused per mission to have tho building now oc cupied by Cook's grocery remain In the street alongside the present site for sixty days while a new building is being constructed. The streets are to be paved and It was decided the building would be in the way. Chairman Savage of the Fire and Water Committee, was instructed to sell for less? adjust the tiouble over the new fau cets placed along the waterfront to supply fresh water to the fire engine in case of fire. The Pacific Board of Underwriters have written Mayor Straw that the wiring of the city hall Is defective and tho building must be rewired. The finance committee was instruct ed to have this done. Bills for repairing the North Broadway sower were held over. It sems that the cost of the work will have to be paid out of the general fund and Councilman Albrecht In sisted that the abutting property owners should pay for it. . Hugh McLain was ordered paid $403 on his North Broadway Impro vement contract. Owing to an error in the original assessment, there will probably hae to-be a deficit as sessment. The first assessment was not as great as the engineer's estimate. "CASTI KWOOK" at the P. K. Road the TlmpR Want Ads. rice j Alliance Company Leases Couch Street Property and Will Remodel It. The Portland Telegram says: "Both the lower and upper floors of the Couch-street dock have been leased by the California & Oregon Coast Steamship Company, owner of the steamers Alliance and Nome City, and extensive Improvements to the structure will be started immediate ly. The upper floor will be given an additional width of about 70 feet, carrying It into the river the same distance as the lower floor now ex tends. "A spur from the United Railway line running rown Front street will be built into the dock, enabling the shipping houses to send freight in there by tho carload lot without 'using teams. Alterations will be made to the lower dock so that the grade of the driveway leading into It will be considerably lessened. Even after the spur tiack has ben com pleted freight will have to be taken to the lower floor by teams. 1 "The dock extends from Burn sklo to Couch street, a distance of 300 feet When the proposed changes have been brought about It will be one of tho most modern docks In the up') r part of the harbor. Heretofore the " mpany has only held a lease to ! lower floor. The upper wharf v t? seemed for the purpose of giving the concern ample ioom during the high-water periods, when tho lower floor is inundated. In tho meantime, it will be sublet to various Interests. The Improvements will be made by the owners of the property, Allen & Lewis. "It will be only a matter of time (Until the California & Oregon Coast ( Steamship Company will have an other freight and passenger craft i mining out oi Portland to ports down the coast. The matter of In creasing its steamship service out of hero was practically settled some j time ago, and It is believed that the wui-k oi uuuuing (lie additional craft will soon be stnrted. However, nothing of a definite nnture has beeu given out relative to this matter since the visit of George D. Gray, president of the line, several months ago.
