Engineer and 0. E. Goodwin;! assistant engineer. The occasion was a house warming for Major Morrow and members of his staff who arrived' on Coos Day In connection with tho work of tho new bar dredge on Wednesday, January 21. Tho enter-' tninmout and smoker wns a gathering of old frlonds, the least of w'.om are not Major Morrow and Louis .1. Simp-, sou. ! That Major Morrow Is confident of the grout work the now drodgo w'll accomplish was shown by his talk of ' last evening, but hu stated that re sults cannot bo expected Immediately and will require time. .Major Mor row said, In part: "it has often been said that tho greatest speeches have buen delivered in the shortest space of time, and while my talk here this evening will not ho great, still I shall tiy to make it as brief as pnsslblo., i "No doubt all assembled horo this ' evening aro expectant of groat work I from the new dredge. I wish to state, j hnwovor, nud with nil Justice to Cap tain Reed and his assistants, that it will be some time beforo maximum results en n be accomplished by the Col. Michie. She Is a now type of ! dredge nud tho government Is watch ing expectantly the outcome of hor work on Coos Hay. . "Tlio Mlehlo Is built to work on bars such bb Coos Hay. She will work , consistently while tho boat Is pitching but ti'cro Is a question that can he settled only by actual pereformanco, I and that Is whother or not tho Col. ' Mlehlo will work consistently when sho rolls, j "Sho Ih built to withstand oxtrn- ordinary strain, but whothor or not sho will endure the pitch mid roll motion without Injury to tho dredging machinery remains to bo soon, "While wo oxpoct to got considera ble work finished with tho dredgo tills winter, still wo must nwalt favor- ahlo weather conditions, and the men In chnrgo of this dredgo linvo recolved ' vory deflnlto Instructions to nwalt favornblo weatlior. Consequently, If the dredgo should bo laid up nt Em-1 plro for n short stretch, I don't want I nnyono to think wo nro killing tlmo, and If you should wrlto mo n note complnluliig about tho men on tho dredgo not doing their duty, I will i answer yon thnt they tiro doing ex- nctly as they woro told. The United States has had moro experience In bar dredges than all nations, nnd to day it operates five times ns many ns all other nations combined. "Now a great many people think t''"nt because tho Jetty out on the bar docs not protrude abovo tho water Mnt It Is performing no service. Whllo It would bo bettor if tho Jetty were a littlo higher, still it is per forming a good scrvico as it Is, and 1 bollovo that with tho dredgo and tho Jetty thoro Is no reason why wo should not havo thirty-five fcot of water on tho bar at low tide. "I had hoped I would bo nblo to see tho dredgo In operation on tho bar, but I must return to Portland. I hope, however, to be with 'you during tho coming summer for a period of a weok or ten days, at which tlmo I shnll hnve tho pleasure of Boeing tho Col. Mlehlo at work on tho Coos Day bar. "In conclusion I wish to sny that It Is n peasuro to return to Coos liny onco more and bo with you, nnd should the bar dredgo fall to como up to my expectations, I shnll bo on ly too glad to recommend tho re building of the Jetty." Judgo John I). Gobs wns the very nblo master of ceremonies nnd called on Louis J. Simpson for an address of woleomo to Major Morrow. Tho geiilul Mr. SimpRon responded Iti his usual cordial mnnnor nnd his talk was one of tho best of tho evening. Tho gathering had tho pleasure of listening to David Swing Rtcker, author, Journnllst nnd pedestrian, and nt present special writer for tho Or cgonian.
