According to tho Myrtle Point Enter- jnso, the editor oi tho coast ai.ut, is a "braying donkey," "headles!," (twice) on "ass," and a "well! excrescence," and tlio Coast Mail iUelf is an "inflic tion." Wo lay this frank estimate be foro oar readers for their entertainment, t is nearly no fanny as llw Enterprise' account of the late tragedy here, re published in the Mail a few days r.uo, which mainly accounts for this outbreak A fellow can always get soma fun out of tho Enterprisa by stirring itttp a little. . is H IMPOP.TANZ DEVELOPMENT. Tho di'patch pchlithctl in the Mail yesterday morning and tellis of the bonding o! tho Sprecklea interests in Cco3 county to tht'tircat Centra! ie the most important "?i:ce of news that has developed lately. Wile it has been ex pec ted, It Is a gratifying confirmation of tho theory that the Great Central means business. A gentleman who wa9 in Portland a couplo of weeks ago informs tho Mail that tho deal was made at that time, though it has just reached publicity; aleo that the Southern Pacific was after the same property end it was only after a Pvcly fight that tho Great Central secured tho option. It is a good thing for Coos Day that the S. P. did not suc ceed. TfJE LOSING FIGHT AGAINST UN IONISM. Tho reports from the Anthacito coal field e indicate that the operators are loth to accept tho arbitration idea, and some at least intend to keep up the fight against tho union. This Is another il lustration oi tho fact that the great coal companies, like oil great companies who arc, in a position to do so, wish to bring their employes down and ke'ep them down to the lovel of eerfe. Without their union, the miners are helpless and entirely at the mercy of tho operators. As Individuals thoy are pow crless to better their condition, and it is as individuals that tho operators nro de termined to" treat them. Do away with concerted action, and tho minor's psy will bo redu:cd to tho starvation level, if it is ndt atlhat point already, and the minor can work or starve, or both, as best plcaccs him. In this fight ngcingt unionism tho op erator are houud to lose.

TO CLOSE MARSHFIELD STORES ON SUNDAY Movement Inaugcraled.by Ministerial Union Willi Good Prospecctof Success. Uov.F. G. Stransa, Rov.Thot. Irvine and Itcv. B. F. Bcnglson, of tho Presby terian, Baptist and Swcedish Lutheran Churches respectively, woro circulating a Sunday closing-agreement among the merchants yesterday. They wero meeting v.ith good eucccsB, and when seen by the Coast Mail man had the signatures of tho thrco leading drygoods merchants among the fifteen or twenty which they had already ob tained. Only two merchants had de clined to sign ; ono because ho always closed on Sunday any way1, and tlio oth er becauee ho wished firtt to consult an absent member of tho firm. It is to bo hoped that every merchant in town, largo and email, will eeo his way clear to join this movement. There Ib no ucod reason why merchants and clerks should not havo one day of rcs out cf the seven. If all will join, nono will loae any thing, the peoplo will con sumo tho same amount of goods and tho trade will ho distributed tho same. Of course,!? a few hang back it is likely to block tho whole Echemo, and all will bo obliged 1o forego tho needod rest and and recreation.

It., tho Portland Tele gram has theco significant ut'ernncro! This is an orn of Btroimmis ouduavor among thu great transcontinental railway systems of tho country to reach tho Pa cific Const in anticipation of the trado expansion which is to follow upon the opening of tho Orient. While thero haa been a good deal of surmtie, ni to tho innvoments ol certain railivaya toward securing turmlimls In tho Paoltlu North west, no cnterprlso of groator momont or with more promise of actually going through has appeared than tho Groat Central Hallway Company, which hns begun tho actual construction of a road fioin Coos Bay to Salt Lake, a distance of a littlo over 1000 miles and through eomo of the moat advantageous territory that is to bo found. Tlio Great Contral Company' rntiy. into tho Hold ;of Oregon atitlvittafc vns mado (pnlotly end without oitontatlon until it3 plans had boon p;etty com pletely laid. Within another year it looka an if tho constsuclion oi tho Salt Lake lint will bo well advanced. Coos Bay will probably wltnuM areator activ ity in tho noxt I0 years than any place west of tho Rocky Mounlulus. That the coming of tho new lino wllldovolop tho wonderful fertility of tlu soil and neglected rcaourcos oi Southern Oregon and add to tho permanent riches of the state goes without tho oylng. It is difficult for thoso who have never mado a cloo examination of tho im- monee Coos Bay country to rcallzo what lies In storo for tho people of that hith erto isolated section. Thero aro but flvo good harbors on tho Coast, exclusivo of Alaska, where dsop-watcr vessels can ontcr and anchor with porfect safely San Diego, San Francisco, Portland, Coos Bay and Seattle, Tliure Is certalu to arise on tho basia of certain powerful young industries thoro a great seaport city, that will vie iu grandeur aud greatness, population and wealth with tho largoet centerB on Pacific watore. Coos Bay will ho tho cantor of de velopment, through railroad connection, of tho vaot rich country betweon Port land and San Francisco, a dlstanco of over 700 milcc. It ncijds only a railroad from tho East to cause It to crow by leaps and bounds. As n reaalt ol tho oporatlono of the Great Central Hallway and its allied corporations thoro is now a great activity among speculators in townslto trade, lots and lands on tho bay. A numbor of industries, it is said, will conn bo es tablished, among them being a large paper pulp plant capable of turning out 20 ions of finished paper dally which bo oj tublishcd near iho torroinua of tho road.
