"l)ow Make Statement Concern Ing Stenm-dtlp. Editor Times: The withdrawing of the steamship M. F. Plant from the Coos Bay run Is a blow to the county, one that will take a long time and united ef forts on the part of citUcns to over come. While the "Plant" lias not been losing money the fact Is she has been making very little. The Oregon Coal and Navigation Company, as a ! whole on account of the mine being worked out had no disposition to open another because of the rea son of the "Employers' Liability Act" that has been passed in this state and also because the stock of the company Is divided into estates so H seemed best to soil rather than to attempt to carry on the business. The company finds the balance sheet for IU 10 shows a heavy loss, the last six months of the year being larger than the first, and naturally with this condition there is no chance of making up any of the loss and the company do not feel like taking it and so closed down the mine and will make one more trip with the steamer, at which time it Us expected that all the freight that j they are under obligations to move will be taken care of. Personally, nnd ns probably the largest Incoming shipper, I feel like Coos Bay Is losing lior best friend nnd we will not realize the loss ns much nt first as we will ns time goes on, and we find ourselves Just lllce Gray's Harbor, up against n steam schooner lumber service with Its consequent Irregular service , nnd delays. As I stated before it will take the united efforts of every one. whether they ever ship or whether they go on n boat, to overcome this loss, It It can be, under the present conditions. To explain, I will give this illus tration which of course Is private history, but something we will all have to look squarely In the face. Coos Bay Is not loyal to her old friends nnd in her zenl to grow is apt to down an old friend to help out a now, irrespective of whether there is room for the new or not. As an Illustration which enme under my notice, perhaps more than to anyone else, the persistent rumor that the Plant's stenm had been cut down by tho Inspectors to such n point that she could hardly stem a tide. As you know this has been talked of so long that nine out of ten people believed It and nt the last we hardly sold n ticket to anyone thnt did no bring It up. The facts arc tho Plant has been running hero five yenrs and In thnt five yenrs has made 254 round trips, nlmost 51 trips n year, She Is allowed today the same steam pressuro thnt she had when the first arrived on the coast. She haa never had an accident that could bo laid to faulty machinery nnd weak boilers or a poor hulk, and no Inter than last Saturday was Inspected by tho United States Inspectors and passed with tho statement that sho was In better condition than five years ago, and the only recommen dation that they made for the ship was two additional floats for the life rnft to conform with the new law, three tins of broad for tho life boats and about 150 feet of new flro hose and one half hour's work on the boilers. Tho company feel highly elated over the condition of the ship and think that she needs no apolo gy. " In the last five years the Plnnt has passed ovor three quarters of .,' ..... . " "...
