Tho ono nt Sa lom Is a conforenco over tho Oregon-Washington luuil grant nd the ono In Coiiulllo Is for tho reorgnn izntlon of tho Coos County Good Iloads Association. Botli present problems that nro vital to tho progress of tho com munity. While tho land grant con forenco Involves moro wealth, It is to bo doubted if it is of more con corn to tho residents of Coos County than tho road problem. THIS diverse Interests Involved In tho disposal of tho railroad granted lauds nro nlready cmmorlng for their various selfish cndB.

Such niothods will destroy any influence and any vnluo that might othorwlso be attached to an expres sion of the peoplo of tho state ns to tho disposition of these lauds. A controlled and directed gathering of delegates will be no more a popular expression of tho people's will and wishes than tho old-time conven tions.

That It may bo such an expression both In action and appearance Its direc tors should not attempt to hurrah and hamper It by controlling Its ut terances and Insisting on naming the speakers. Tho conference should voice In some form tho wishes of the people and It will bo well for the peoplo to watch tho proceedings and tho methods used In formulating its recommondatlouR.
