CURRY COUNTY TO
ESTABLISH PORT
By Majority of Three Proposal
to Improve Harbor at Port
Orford Is Carried.
GROWTH WILL BE FELT
Despite Opposition of Timber Com
panies and Non-Resident Prop
erty Owners, Clty'g Major
ity I Sufficient.
PORT ORFORD. Or, Oct. 11. (Spe
cial.) The proposal to establish a port
commission at Fort Orford carried
here yesterday by a majority of three,
with complete unofficial returns from
all precincts. The election was the
most hotly contested this district has
ever known.
When the returns came In last night
Curry County generally celebrated and
speeches were made from the historic
Haf.le Rock, on whloh Captain William
Tlchenor landed his men 60 years atco.
I'ort Orford precinct gave the com
mission a majority of 101. while Unit
lols precinct was opposed to the scheme
by a majority of 99. The three out
side precincts gave a net majority for
the commission of one.
IM-al Feeling Strong.
The returns will be canvassed Im
mediately and indications point to con
slderab.e local feeling, as every voter
In the county has received long letters
from Coos County residents who own
land In Curry County, warning them
a vote for the port means puttinp a 10
per cent mortgage on their homes.
Various timber companies which own
large tracts In the district to be af
fected by organization of the port were
among the most staunch opponents. J.
M. Upton, a Marshfield attorney, who
spent a week hero opposing port or
ganisation. Is supposed to be repre
senting the Smith Lumber Compnny
and other non-resident owners known
to be) In opposition.
Growth to Be Great.
S. P. Tierce. Joint Representative
from Coos and Curry counties, led the
opposition for resident farmers and
Joined forces with Mr. Upton, who
spoke for non-rcsldents.
W. H. Meredith, of the Tort Orford
Commercial Club, permitted both men
to address various club meetings and
debate the proposal with club mem
bers. In this district both the Port
Orford Tribune and the Gold Beach
Globe advocated port organization.
The result of the election means that
bonds will be sold by the county for
the Improvement of the harbor here.
At present It Is Impossible for vessels
of any slxe to enter and obtain a safe
anchorage. With the manner In
which this country Is being settled. It
Is apparent, say those behind the
scheme, that Port Orford will at once
take front rank among Coast cities.
Rapid development of every kind la
now looked for In Curry County. With
the execptlon of property owners In
land, the sentiment In favor of a port
and a greater Port Orford Is general.
