MARSH FIELD, Or.. July 30. (Spe
claj.) All of the pleasures of
lakes, rivers. n
tains and the sport of fishing, hunting;,
trapping and boating: are afforded the
visitor to the Coos Bay country. In
addition, there Is a variety of Summer
climate varying from the cool, bracing;
ocean breezes to the warm suns of the
mountains and valleys.
There Is probably no place in the
country where more of the outdoor en
joyments are to be found. Pleaaure
eeekers travel hundreds of miles to
reach any one of such places, white,
with Coos Bay as a center, one can
find, and within a radius of a few
miles, almost every imaginable kind of
vacation, from the most strenuous big;
game shootlnfr to quiet restfulness.
The resort features of Coos Bay have
never been exploited to any great ex
tent, probably because there was no
railroad Into the place to make It easy
of access, but from either San FVan
cisco or Portland it 1 a pleasant ocean
trip for anyone who enjoys sea travel.
The overland routes from Roseburg or
Drain to Coos Bay extend through one
of the most beautiful parts of Oregon,
from a scenic point of view, and now
that autos are beginning to supplant
the old-time stages it Is likely that
many more will make the overland
trip.
However, the fact that the country
has not been penetrated or disturbed
by a railroad adds much charm to the
resort, and to the sporting features of
the country.
Coos Bay has always been famous as
a trout-fishing district and deserves all
that has ever been said of It. Prob
ably the favorite place for this sport
Is the Ten-Mile Lake district. Several
lakes form a chain of large fresh
water bodies, very near to the ocean and
tome distance north of Coos Bay. The
lakes are reached by gasoline boat
and mountain stage. For fine lake
acenery the place is unexcelled and it
Is said of the trout fishing there that
it cannot be beaten anywhere. ,The
lakes are so large that the supply of
trout is practically Inexhaustible.
Many who have traveled far In search
of sport enthuse over the lakes.
Many Summer homes of various sixes
have been erected in the lake district
and the place promises to become a
famous Oregon Summer resort.
With Coos Bay as the outlet, there
are about a dozen, rivers and streams
that go back into the mountain coun
try. For boating In the little gasoline
launches there are miles of rivers that
can be covered, and all affording de
lightful scenery. The most popular of
these streams is Coos River. It is the
highway for a big dairy district, but
Is equally as noted as an outing stream.
The choice spots along the river banks
have become the sites qf Summer
bungalows and many of the local
people spend the Summer up the river.
There is fine trout fishing, as well as
boating and bathing and a warm climate
to be enjoyed. On the bay and tribu
tary rivers about S00 gasoline launches
are used and many of these are pleas
ure boats. They are the chief means
of the transportation to the resorts
and Coos River has its regular lines,
the little boats giving almost as good
service as an electric car line.
If angling for trout is too mild for
the sportsman he can have great -port
at deep-sea fishing. Strudy little fish
ing boats cross out over the bar
to the ocean halibut banks. Ling,
halibut, redfish. flounder and many
other varieties are caught. There is
enough danger attached to the sport
to make it interesting for the venture
some fisherman.
The ocean beach is one of the big
attractions of Coos Bay. There are
many fine camping spots, wonderful
rock caves to explore In low tide and
no end of shellfish to find. Over 20
varieties of clams, all of which are
eligible for a chowder or a fry. rock
oysters and enormous crabs abound.
Clambakes and camping parties are big
events throughout the Summer.
Another fine resort beach is at Ban
don. For a distance of several miles
below the city, the beach is lined with
beautiful and glganUo rocks. The city
Is to build a board walk leading to the
beach and the place la frequented con-
i -it'"' .

stantly in the summertime by the peo
ple of the city and the visitors. Several
Summer cottages have been built on the
cliffs overlooking the beach. It is here
that the beautiful agates, which are in
such demand by visitors, are found.
Probably no other part of the Oregon
beach is as attractive as that which ex
tends south of Bandon.
To find an entirely different -climate
and utterly different surroundings, one
has but to travel in an opposite direc
tion a few miles from Coos Bay and
reach the mountains. On all sides, the
mountains furnish fine camping places.
The scenery Is beautiful beyond descrip
tion. For one not acquainted with the
country, it is worth a trip to the moun
tains to see the bigrees, if for nothing
else. There are mountains close to
Coos Bay, but if one will travel for
about 30 miles back, the Coast Range
can be reached. Absolute wildness can
be found and, of course, a stranger can
not go back Into the mountains with
out a guide. But the stage roads have
been so improved during the' past two
years that auto trips or journeys on
horseback can be taken to the Interior
and all of the beauties of the moun
tains enjoyed. For a tramp on foot, no
place is better than to the Coast Range
or across it r. to Roseburg. As for the
camera enthusiast, he will get some
pictures that cannot be. duplicated any
where.. In the hunting season, the whole
county Is a paradise for the man with
a rifle. To find deer In plenty all one
needs to do is to get a tip from soma of
the oldtimers as to the best places, or
to secuie a guide. Some of the hunting
grounds are near, but many of the hunt
ers prefer to go farther back Into the
mountains and carry on pack horses
provisions for several weeks. There are
many shacks In the woods where hunt
ers can stay.
Besides shooting deer, it is no great
trick to kill panthers, wildcats or bears.
. If a man has two weeks' vacation and
wants to hunt and get as far as pesslble
away from everybody and everything,
he should take a trip into Curry County,
which Is the next door neighbor of Coos
County. The hunting there is fine and
he can lose himself, as far as civiliza
tion is concerned, without any trouble.

TROUT FISHING PZACE OK UPPBR . COO
For real wilderness, parts of Curry
County are the best to be found in
Oregon.
One of the finest hunting and fish
ing preserves in the country is in Curry
County. It is owned by Edmund Croft,
of Tacoma. Mr. Croft has 400 acres
of his own and holds a lease on 2000
acres more, all for a hunting pre
serve. He kHls everything from bears
and deer to seallons and wild geese,
and catches four or five different kinds
of game fish.
Duck shooting is another of the great
sports in the Coos Bay country. In the
season, ducks are killed by the hun
drds right on the bay and there are
doxens of other places farther back,
where the birds are less disturbed. The
sand hills extending along the ocean
north of Coos Bay make a favorite Held
for duck hunting. There are many lit
tle fresh water lakes where the ducks
gather and several of these have been
taken up and are held as private pre
serves or are owned by clubs. A dozen
or more Summer homes have been built
in the sand hills and because It is easy
to reach from the city, it Is highly pop
ular with the hunters.
All of these various sports and recre
ation places are easy to reach from
Coos Bay and are not expensive. It
really matters not what particular
kind of vacation one wishes to spend.
That is merely a matter of choice
after one has arrived here, and if the
seashore and fishing do not suit. It is
easy to turn to the mountains and
hunting, or to the lakes and rivers. If
the resorter chooses, he can always
get back to Marshfleld for a f w
days' rest at one of the best hotels In
the state, or even can make the city
hotel headquarters and visit all of the
resort points.
With the long-hoped-for railroad
into Coos Bay, these resort places will
doubtless be enjoyed by many outsid
ers who do not now attempt to come
because of the lack of railroad facili
ties. With such a variety of enjoy
ments, the locality can scarcely help
being a famous one on the Coast.

CAN'T PUT JISIDE WOMEN
She Will Go More and More Into
Business, Says This One.
PORTLAND, July 29. (To the Editor.)
The United States Government's recent
ruling against women In the civil service,
and the similar measure taken by several
of the leading railroads sometime since,
gives food for reflection.
The editorial in The Oregonian yester
day referring to the advancement of
Mr. Cortelyou and Mr. Loeb. mentions
that "doubtless a number of bright, com
petent women -began about the same
time, but for obvious reasons none of
these were transferred and retrans
ferred, . . . leading up to official
station, etc." By "obvious reasons" it
is presumed The Oregonian -means un
constitutional reasons. Through what
condition does such a reason exist?
The writer has made her living for a
number of years through the medium of
office work. She has demonstrated to
herself and to her employers, on divers
occasions, that she could "go on." but
when that crucial moment arrived she
was told: "We recognize your ability.
Tou can fill the position as well in every
respect as a man; but it is against pre
cedent: you're a woman." Many similar
incidents have come under observation,
including political "plums." "Unfortu
nately you are not a voter."
Women no longer are forced, through
utter dependence, to subsist upon the
crumbs falling from the table of a more
or less distant kinsman. The joy of
earning an independent livelihood has
been learned- Perhaps not one of all
these millions of self-respecting, self
supporting young women but would glad-

right man, according to her ideas. If to
some woman that man should never come,
then in her efforts to progress, what
moral right has anyone through mere
circumstance of sex to say: "So far shalt
thou go and no farther. It is too late."
Should the. drastic policy adopted by
the great railroad corporations and the
United States Government be followed
by lesser institutions, forcing women out
of the Industrial field they now occupy.
It will simply result in their more and

COLUMBIA'S SOURCE TO SEA
Veteran Steamboat Captain Recalls
Trip to Revelstoke, B. O.
PASCO, Wash., July 30. (To the
Editor.) An open Columbia River from
"source to sea" Is attracting serious at
tention along the entire length of that
river, but not one in a hundred of the
people living in the territory contiguous
to the Columbia knows the fact that
steamboats have been run the entire
distance from Astoria to Death Rapids
above Revelstoke, except for portages
at The Dalles, Celllo and at Kettle
Falls.
I suggest that as a matter of educa
tion an excursion be organised to take
a -steamboat from Fort Stevens to the
Big Eddy; -take the Oregon Portage
Railroad to Celilo; take another steam
boat from Celilo to Kettle Falls, walk
around Kettle Falls; take another
steamboat from Kettle Falls to Revel
stoke and, maybe, cross the Selkirk
Mountains to Golden, and on by steam
boat to Lake Wlndemere, the head of
navigation on the Columbia River. This
trip will require only three different
steamboats from Fort Stevens to Revel
stoke. If this trip be made, arrangements
must be completed for the steamboat
to start from Fort Stevens not later
than August 10, haste being necessary
to get the steamer up and back over
Priest and Rock Island rapids before
the river falls below an eight-foot stage
at Pasco.
I ran steamboats up and down the
river from the ocean 'to Okanogan.
River, except over The Dalles and Ce
lilo falls, and will gladly assist the
captains and pilots on the river and
the promoters in perfecting the details
for the trip, if they so wish.
The time consumed on the trip indi
cated will be about 48 hours, night and
day run; Fort Stevens to priest Rap
ids, including stops, 18 hours' running
and lining over Priest and Rock Island
rapids to Wenatchee; 10 hours, We
natchee to Bridgeport; two days,
Bridgeport to Kettle Falls; 18 hours.
Kettle Falls to Revelstoke.
I belleev that the full inspection ca
pacity of the different steamboats will
be taxed to the utmost by people along
the Columbia River who will pay good
prices to ride short distances on the
first steamboats to make this trip, if it
is well advertised, and if the Portland
Chamber of Commerce will get busy the
venture will be a success.
