Tho question of erecting a new cUy hall in Marshfleld which has been talked of more or less for the past couple of years promises to be brought up for definite action in the near tuture; J. W. Dennett in a let ter to Mayor Straw the other day called the city executive's attention to the matter. Concerning his view of the matter, Mr. Bennett writes as follows: 'Kindly permit me to call our at- Itention to a matter which suggestsl Itself more forcibly to my mind re cently than formerly and that is that the population of Marshfleld and the valuation of the propetty therein and the amount of the City business i tut the officers and crew prevented jhas out grown tho-present City Hall a panic.

The survey of tho Coos Day, Ore gon and Idaho Railway has been transferred to another company, ac cording to the Portland Telegram. Beyond the transfer of the survey to a newly incorpora ed company, little new is told In a lengthy article con cerning the project in that paper which tells of Chief Engineer Haines' previous connection with and the sub- misses that he may represent the Northwestern or some other big sys tem. Pres. Francis H. Clarke of the old company is now en route to Port land but before leaving Mr. Clarke did not mention the transfer or Inti mate that any change would be made that would affect his connection with the road. Concerning the matter, The Telegram of Saturday says in part: "Articles of incorporation were fil ed at Aalem today, for the Coos Bay & Oregon Central Railroad Com pany, capital $4,000,000. The pur pose of the organization, as set forth in the articles, is to build a rail line between Coos Bay and Dolse, Idaho. C. F. Hendrlckson, Sam Connell and J. H. Cole, all of Portland, appear as the Incorporators. "Further than this, the record shows nothing and the participants in the new enterprise say little. But it has been learned that an actual survey has been made from Coos Day to Roseburg, and It Is also rumored on the basis of good authority that preliminary surveys are being press ed up Into tho Cascndo mmmtnln range. It is also known definitely that Engineer F. A. Haines Is In charge of the preliminary work, and that this new company has taken over the rights and interests posses sed by the Coos Day, Oregon and Ida ho Railway, which has been busy for tho past year In thereach between Roseburg nnd Marshfleld. "None of the incorporators for the new project will discuss tho possible backing. They cannot build the line, it Is conceded, and they have no local connections capable of doing anything effective, but it is explained that a representative of the company will go East at once and make such arrange ments as are necessary to have active construction work to commence this summer."
