Tho sentiment Is current In tho
city Unit the date of resumption
of work on tho Drain and Coos Hay
hatlroud will bo anuounrcd in Feb

at' Marshlleld, an is evident by an
article from the Coast Mall published
elsewhere. This papor held In an ed
itorial a number of weeks ago, the
Houthern I'acltlc never abandoned the
Drain line, and that whenever that
company deemed there was absolu
te, danwer of another line of rail
road penetratitiK the Coos Hay coun
try It would complete that road. With
llin work nearly completed on its
tunnels, and with tho right or wav
pretty well cleared from Drain to
Scottsburg, the company can build
tho road to the Hay easily within
oichteeii months and have cars run
ning over it, Hliion the estimate made
from the start was to the effect that
the entire road could be built within
a year. So If it is announced In Fb
runry that tho company will ngaiu iv
suiiip work on the line .and does kt ep
Its word, wlihiu the time stated above
Coos county will hear the whistle of
tlw branch line of the Southern Pa
