Plan For Community Railway caluw.x: v max avihtks to the nn:s coxcrcitNixa PROJECT FOR STREITT KAIIAVAY MX MARSH FIELD AND XORTII HEXD. Sacramento, Calif., July 11, '11. Editor Coos Bay Times: Two or three months ago tho writer sent to some of tho leading citizens of Mnrshflold and North Bend, Includ ing your commercial Association, a plan for tho construction of tho pro- nosed lnterurbnn rond between the city of Marshfield and North Bend by tho pooplo of tho two cities nnd nlong its line. While tho plan is not muni cipal ownership, It Is along tho gener al lines of municipal ownership. It nmv tin morn nronorly called com munity ownership. Tho writer docs not claim tho dis tinction of creating something out of nothing nor hnB ho a got rich quick or frenzied flnnnco scheme It is rathor a return to safe and sano prin ciples. Tho valuo of bonds is tno security behind them. A safe se curity would bo whero tho property would sell under tho hammer for enough or moro than enough to pay face value for Its bonds nnd othor obligations. Tltero is no wny of put ting a margin of security behind bonds oxcept through tho acquire ment of property or values over and above tho amount of money expend ed In tho construction of tho rond. Tho location and franchises gives tho road an added valuo na woll as tho Industries nnd fncllltlcB that la built up along tho lino of a rond. Thla is one of tho most Important questions boforo tho public today. Many states havo nassed laws requiring a physi cal valuation of tho railroads within Ol IIIO llllliuuuo niki.au its borders. It Is only too true that lea of tho enhancement in tho vniuo tho stock and bondB of theso rondBJof property If thoy wanted to dispose wore heavily watered at tho time tho of their bonds quickly, could add ronda wcro financed and constructed, tholr own guarantee to theso bonds Theso roads built up great cities for n limited tlmo during tho infancy nlong thctr lines nnd tho valuo of of tho road. Tho construction of tho much of Its property was enhanced rond will onhnnce tho valuo of prop In valuo many thousand foldB. In orty along tho lino of proposed road most cases whore tho stocks and from two to four times tho cost of bonds wore wntercd tho valuo of tho tho road. iifnnorlv nt tlimn rOndfl liaVO CaUglltl TImrn innv lin n nnrtatlfttl (n ttltt g.a v,'ja ,, w- ... , jiiutu I.. ..J . .,.... w .. rtip and even passed by thq Inflation fmn,iB 0f BOnie whether tho pcoplo of: i x wi .I1I l. 9n(tMt (m vtirtof 4nl i. t a . poiru. it win uu luiuiu i wbv ... coos xiay can rniso ono nunurou ana ... -. 4Y.(V Mia I.PABAnt Vflllin fif thill.-- il 1 .t.li-,.

Undor tho plan suppllod as nbovo mentioned tho writer cuta out mi tho Burplua and unnecessary oxpon - sos.

Tho rlghta of way and franchises that promoters succeed in getting tho people to glvo them la their stock In trade and on which they arrange the sale of bonds. As a general proposition the rights of way, franchises, concessions and locations may bo regarded of equal value with tho actual cost of the road. If bonds are only issued to cover the money expended in con- ronda obligation, ir as in mosi "tontlon to lt8olf tUnn doptlnR thla tho obligations is double tho actual; Pns,rlictin of this short structlon of road and its cqulpmont theso bonds mny bo regarded as hay ing two dollars of security to ono oil obligation. S Tho plnn of tho wrltor for tho fl nnnclng nnd construction of rond la based solely on sound buslnoBS prin ciples and Instead of trying to got tho people to furnish tho money to build tho rond and glvo It to tho promotor, the wrltor is willing to tako the place of tho promotor and build tho road and equip It and chargo n reasonable commission foe his services. Under his plnn tho patrons or poo-4 plo to bo Berved by tho road la ex pected to subscribe for tho bonds of tho road. With overy dollnr of bonda subscribed for an equal amount of stock la given. This gives tho sub scriber to tho bonds a chanco to soil his bonds and hold on to hla stock: nnd through tho stock control tho road. Now It would not roqulro moro thnn thrco or four months to construct tho road between Marnb fiold and North Bend. Tho holder of bonds can soil them and whon tho rond is In opcrntion ho can find a buyer for his stock if ho wants to soil It. Tho wrltor haa enough fnltb.
