A Happy Now Yearl A HAPPY NEW YEAH OUTLOOK IS imiGHT. T 111', first of tho year 191G comes In with prospects bright for Coos, County.

Through a period when tho wholo coust coun try hay felt tho tightening of f. nunco, Coob County has Btoadlly gone ahtad. Early this yonr tho Willamette Paclfio railroad from Eugcuo to Coos Bay will bo completed and trains wllf'tip running bo that tho locality will havo rail connections with tho rost of tho country. This will mean bo much t,q Coos County that' n now epoch of development will start, Tho lumber business I1 .nJ,.l,nl)0,'tiy,t.fctnr to Coos Conn ty. For most of tho pnst year tho lumber business has not been at Its host, but during Docombor tlio lumbor market greatly Improved and tho best authorities say that tho lumber business Btarta off much bettor this year than It did at tho beginning of 10 1 C.

Tho revival of tho lumber manufac turing business has caused a conse quent Increase In tho logging oper ations. Tho eastern part of the United States has enjoyed groat prosperity on account of war or d6rs and he benefit Is now being felt on the Pacific coast. Many pro diet that a fow montlis will sco tho lumber business nt Its best and that moaiiB that Coos County will reach a higher otato af prosperity than It ever did before.
