HOME OWNERSHIP,
mi
lIIE TIMES has frequently and
earnestly urged everyone on
Coos Bay to secure a piece of
Coos Bay real estate and it has es
pecially advised people to secure
homes of their own. The Portland
Journal working along the same
lines, suggests the same splendid
idea. Almost any family, it says,
can pay for n lot and house In that
city within 10 or 12 years while on
Coos Bay it can be done In half that
time. True, the cost of living is
high, and Is increasing more than
wages, yet with care and economy a
homo is easily possible, and it will
ho in later years a very and Increas
ingly 'valuable possession.
This Is a good year and a good
time of year to make a start in this
enterprise. The vacation season Is
over. The harvests are being con
verted Into millions of surplus mon
ey. Lots are no higher than they were
last year, but they will ho higher
next year. It Is a good time to be
gin to make monthly payments on a
home, a place In which a family can
take pride, 'In the Improvement and
occupancy of which all will rejoice.
Nothing so stimulates and strength
ens the resolution to save a portion
of one's earnings as this monthly
necessits of making a payment on
one's home, the permanent abiding
place of wife and children, the dwel
ling in which tho family altars are
most sacred.
Homo ownership makes a man a
more responsible and a hotter citi
zen. It makes the wife a more con
tented, cheerful and better woman.
It gives the children greater pride
of tho right kind and a better chance
In the world.

HE EYE OF greod Is fixed upon
thf groat forest reservations of
tho nation. Timber cutters.
sheep and cattle owners seeking1 pas
turage without cost, and mining pro
moters have all in their turn tiled to
get their hands upou sections of the
forest lands, now grown immensely
valuable.
A tjplcal attempt at seizure was
that of one H. II, Yard, and the
Noith California Mining Company.

this at e t.i o d mineralized prop
erty. The timber thereon has au
approximate value of $5,000,000. A
Reologk.il stirves was ordered and
in coiibMiuonce the mining company
Toluutaiily relinquished $1,000 acres
and protested agalust the vacation of
11,000 acn, Having Umber of a val

which had held the loeatlous for
from two to live years, had under
taken no work of development. When
the hearings begun against It the
concern spent six months prospecting
and In that time roeovorod gold to
f'e amount of three dollars. Ap

Cwinpany. The forest reserve again
holds entire possession.
The case was, of course, one of
speculation on the part of the com
pany. If It lost out it lest little since
no work worth mentioning wa.s done.
If it hrd won there was $5,000,000
almost as a gift.

A California murderer was tried
and convicted of manslaughter and
a sentelice of twenty years in the
penitentiary was imposed. One week
later the murderer was freed, having
been released from penitentiary on a
habeas corpus writ. The jury had
returned the verdict of guilty and
sentence had been imposed on Satur
day afternoon. Saturday afternoons
are legal holidays In California. The
murderer had been improperly con
victed and sentenced, and was re

It is remembered that a New Jersey
court has decided 25 pounds of
pretty young woman is worth $25,
000. A young woman brought suit
for breach of promise, claiming big
damages, apparently not to her af
fections, however . She averred that
because of being jilted she had lost
25 pounds In weight. Her lawyers
claimed that $1,000 per pound was
a reasonable price, and the court
agreed with him.

hall Tuesday morning when the re
signation of W. B. Xethery as night
watchman was requested, and when
tendered, was accepted. John Hlc
knm was appointed by the council
to fill the vacancy. This action of
the city council was the result of
reports coming In that the night
watchman was sleeping a largo por
tion of the after part of the night
when he Is supposed to be especially
vigilant. The matter was called to
the attention of the council last
week and investigations were insti
tuted to ascertain the truth of the
charges.
"Marshal Hoberg, In pursuance of
orders from headquarters, had bus
iness in the neighborhood of the city
hall in the early morning hours
Tuesday and discovered the night
watchman enjoying a refreshing
slumber In the big ofllce chair. He
reported the matter and Mr. Nethe
ry's resignation was requested.
"Mr. Nethery was appointed by
the, council at Its last regular meet
ing held two weeks ago and he has
served" since the first day of the pre
sent month."

where the other follow doesn't stop

CIRCULATING LIBRARY
Realizing and responding to the need and requirements cf Marshlleld for a Library, we have
decided to Institute the first one ever established here and conduct It In connection with our book
department. This library will embrace all the very latest voljmes of Fiction as well as the stand
ard and clnssic works found in the best libraries. The fact that we will issue tho very latest
books the books that are fresh from tho press and that are being talked about today to our
library subscribers makes It even superior to city libraries wUro It Is often Impossible to get tho
late books because of the large demand for them. Wo -have at present ,
More Than 1000 Volumes
and 500 More Coming
From which you may make selections.
We have determined on a graded scale of charges of 15 cents to 50 cents for the late books.
Persons taking books will be permitted to keep them two weeks after which an additional charge
of
Five Cents Per Day
Will be made. The following Is the schedule of prices and names of tho class and character of
books. ,
