A: The Coos Bay Times represents a consolidation of the Dally Coast Mall and Tho Coos Bay Advertiser. The Coast Mall was the first dally estab lished on Coos Bay and The Coos Bay Times Is its immediate successor. Official Paper of Coos County. THE PASSING OP THE DREDGE THE DREDGE Oregon has been ordered to cease work in Coos Bay and will be transferred to tho Columbia river. The particular point to which it is now designated Is Vancouver In Washington. This cannot be laid to the door of Port land for Vancouver is rather a rival of Portland and is in the state of Washington. The engineering de partment of the United States gov ernment is thus willing to leave the project which was 'started at Coos Bay half completed and if it were not that the people of Coos Bay are of a disposition not to be beaten, we would say that the work and the money spent for the accomplishment of tho work of dredging the channel from Marshfleld to the sea was wast ed. The dredging of tho bay from Mnrshfleld to Porter has been par tially accomplished and the people are glad to give Captain Peters cred it for what he attempted to do and really did as far as permitted, with skill. But now Coos Bay suffers an other political insult by having the dredge which was designed for her and which she should have and which our very powerful congress man promised to retain here, taken away. But evon If the work of the dredge should bo lost, which it will not for tho peoplo will not allow it, the pres ence of it on tho Bay has been a splendid object lesson. Wo have soon more real change take place for tho better through tho operation of tho dredge than through anything else which was occurred. Marshfleld 1b now no longer a swamp but has been raised by being filled In several feet and tho grade of many streets has been also raised. Tho good work should not stop. But as far ns tho "Oregon" Is concerned It Is finished. Thero is so much yet to be done that another dredge is demanded. For tunately tho strong advocacy of tho organization of tho Port of Coos Bay has resulted in our being in legal ehapo to get money for nnother dredgo and It Is expected that immediate- measures will bo taken for tho purpose. Tho Commission Is well convinced and the peoplo nro prob ably a unit on tho subject. Tho Commission should bo careful, how evor, to mako such a dredgo self- sustaining, if possible It Is not con tondod that It will bo so at once, but It Is moro than likely that tho privato dredging which It will havo to do such ns lining tide lands and streets etc., will put much money in tho trensury and doubtless, In tho end, pay all tho operating expenses of tho dredgo. In this samo connection It should bo homo in mind that other ports havo many sources of rovenuo which will bo present hero also. Tho port Is In condition to tnko charge of tho towage and salvage features and to mako what monoy It can for tho further Improvement of tho Bay. In Glasgow, Scotland, tho port is oper ated by a corporation and tho rove nuo from dockage, towago, pilotage, dredging, etc., pay big dividends on $228,000,000 invested. The commis sion should not loso slp of these sources of rovonne. It Is a matter for solf congratula tion by tho people of Coos Bay that wo aro no longer dopondont entirely on tho outsldo world for help. If tho governinont will not help us wo will holp oursolvos. Whou Napoleon was n young nontenant of artillery, his general sent him to Paris with a let ter which said, "Hero is a young Lloutouant of Artillory. Advauco N EVEN THOUSAND tons of freight, shipped by steamer, from New York, thence across the 'teliunantepec uy rail and re- shipped by steamer, was laid down In San Francisco In twenty-one days, or less than the usual time by rail. In spite of the two transfers and tho part rail shipment, the cost was con siderably less than by an all rail route across the continent. The value of tho Incident is its bearing qn water transportation, as contrasted with rail haul. It Is mentioned here to remind Oregon people that the commercial thought of the world is turning to the water haul, as a means not only of quick, but cheapest transportation. Lately the Transmlsslppl Congress, by un animous 'resolution, appealed to Con gress for a $500,000,000 bond issue for Improving waterways. Commer cialism is Itself adopting the water haul as far as It can, as seen In the roundabout and complicated ship ments from New York to San Fran cisco via Tehuantepec. The whole country is waking up to the realiza tion that we have for fifty years been drunk with the Idea that railroads alone were the true means of trans portation. We aro Just learning than in its last analysis the railroad haul costs eight times as much as the ultimate water haul, and In some eases far more. It Is the cheap water haul on the great lakes that made tho Iron ores In the Superior district accessible, and according to the sta tement of the president of the Waterways Commission, has changed the whole pourse of our civilization. Everywhere the Impulse for Im proving rivers is active, and the mo vement promises to become a para mount policy of tho country. A na tional career is about to be entered upon in which the steamboat and the barge are to become powerful factors In the moving of heavy freights. Coos Bay has been given impetus by this tremendous leverage and a railway while of benefit to Coos Bay Is vastly more important to tho In terior towns, that It would touch In extending the advantages of tho that you will get satisfactory treat ment at all times.
