THE COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, OREGON, TUESDAY, MARCH 5, 1912 EVENING EDITION. ! 4 1 j T, i; - BARNARD OH MORE DELAYS ill SERVICE IB BAR IRK FORECASTS ERA OE big WARS Contractor Says That Coos and Douglas Counties Neglect Mountain Section. Rosouurg, Or., Fob. 20. Editor Coos Uay Times: Referring to Jutlgo Hall's nrtlclo In Tho Times of tho 2Gth, would Bay tlmt I am vory sorry this mnttor lind to conio up again, but ns I was Instrumental In gottlng tho sorvlco back on tho old Coob Uay wagon road, I naturally fool somo prldo In giving Marshflold a good mail sorvlco. I think Judgo Hall Is correct about tho amount of monoy spent on tho old Coos Bay wagon road In tho past two years, but that leaves tho wrong impression, as practically nil of this has boon usod botwoon Sltkum and Sumnor, and this Is whoro it was ncoded tho most, as that soctlon is all tributary to Marshllold if tho road is so thoy can travel It In win tor, and is in very good shapo now, oxcopt n recent slido on Drowster grado which I think was romoved as soon ns pos sible I think Supervisor Farrln is also corroct about tho number of mon working on tho road last Thursday, as I was told at Sltkum that 12 mon woro working on Brewster grado, only four miles away. Why woro not somo of theso men clearing a snfo trail so that you could got your mall on tlmo and in good shapo? As you know, It Is about 10 miles oyer tho mountain without a Iioubo, partly In each county, for tho past two yoars tho Myrtlo Point road has boon kopt opon for wagons all win tor, and Douglas county claims It cannot keop up two parallol roads to Coos county. And of courso all of tho Roqoburg business comos ovor tho Myrtlo Point road, and titoy fcol liko putting it In as good shapo as possible I neglected to say that Mr. Far rin is not tho supervisor of tho moun tain district, but tho supervisor wns notified tho day tho slldo camo In, and I understand that ho said last Monday, ton days uftor, thnt I had niado so much fuss about it that ho would go up and opon a good trail. In tho mcantlmo wo hnvo crossod It with 15,000 or 20,000 pounds of mall and nt loast two citizens of Marshllold know tho chances wo took. Ask Mr. Qoorgo Sheridan or William MoMullon they can tell how It was. When I formerly had this contract both counties sent n crow on tho mountain In tho spring and ilxed up tho road as best thoy could for tho summor. Tho past two yoara neither county has dono this. For two or throo months Coos county has kopt two mon In tho ennyon most of tho tlmo, but Mr. Haines of Mnrshdold can toll you tho condition of tho road last Docombor and about how much two mon could do on ton miles of It in winter', but only ask a safo trail in wlntor. Thoro woro onough mon working for tho county within a fow miles of tho slldo to hnvo takon It out In onp day, and thou ono man could oaslly havo kopt it opon. Tho fact of tho matter is that tho mountain has boop practically nbandonod by both counties for two yoars and it la Im possible (o glvo n satisfactory mall sorvlco ovor It, unless It can bo quick ly cleared after storms and' slides. Yours very respectfully, C. P. IUHNARD. from Congressman Hawloy and Ma jor Morrow. Congressman Hawley says that tho United States engineers nro absolutely opposod to doing any thing on tho Jotty project until tho bnr (1 red go Is tried and Major Mor row's letter says that tho bids on tho bar drodgo woro not within tho Hm it of tho appropriation. Congressman Hawloy's letter is as follows "I havo just had a conferenco with Hon. James II. Davidson, a member of tho commlttoo on rlvors nnd liar bors, who has boon giving special at tcntion to tho restoration of tho north jetty. Ho is an influential mombor of tho committee nnd mado a hard fight for an appropriation at this tlmo. Tho ohlof of onglnoors, how- ovor, took tho position that sluco tho bnr drodgo had boon authorized to tako caro of tho situation at Coos Day bar, he could not recommend any thing for Jetty improvement until it wns seen whnt tho dredgo could do. I regret that ho took this position. Wo did all we could to sccuro an ap propriation for tho restoration of tho Jotty. I boltovo In tho Jotty and slnco tho onglnoors aro not willing to ro- Btoro It, I havo takon tho only courso open to securo Jotty work, and that Is a survey for Its restoration nnd ex tension, as provided In tho present rlvors and harbors bill. This will lnvolvo a dolny of a year, I regrot to say. When tho survoy Is bolng mado, I will depend largely upon you and othor Influential pooplo on tho bay to soo that tho onglnoors aro fully convinced of tho necessity for Jotty work. I used tho tologrnm giving It to Congressman Davidson, who linn boon diligent In our Interest receiv ed concerning tho shoaling on tho bar and tho dangers to navigation, nnd hnvo also usod tho othor data sent mo with both tho commlttco nnd tho engineers, but without tho recom mendation of tho Chief of Engi neers, tho commlttoo did not mako tho appropriation. Ho Is standing by tho drodgo proposition. I bollovo In tho restoration and oxtonslon of tho Jotty, as I hnvo stated above, as tho solution of tho problom of naviga tion on Coos liny, and will do what ever I enn to securo an npproprlntlon for this purpose" Bids Too High. Rolatlvo to tho bids on tho bar drodgo, Major Morrow writes tho Port of Coos Uay Commission ns fol lows: "In reply to your tologrnm of tho last Instant, I will stato that tho bids for tho proposod son-going drodgo for Coob nay, 'Col.
