I'OIXT NEWS.
: : ; : ; :
With all its faults, we love it still!
Much is said for and against this
town and Its people, some of the re
ports no doubt arc true, others are
not.
Yes, Myrtle Point Is tho garden
spot of Coos county, a more perfect
townslte Is hard to find: true wo aro
not possessed of architectural struc
tures, boulevards, a great bay, nor
being the seat of tho county; we even
acknowledge that our streets should
be kept cleaner, but if wo examine
what our business men are doing we
find that In pronortlon to the popula
tion we have a full share of tho trade.
Let us sing our own praises. Here
we have the Guenin Hotel. Mr. and
wo have tho Guerln Hotel. Mr. and
small way. Their Joviality, Industry,
energy and good table kept the busi
ness crowing, one enlargement of tho
building followed the other ono and
now they can say they have tho most
complete hotel in the county. And
not only this; from the floor to the
roof, scrupulous cleanliness reigns.
Luxurious rooms for wealthy patrons
and more than comfortable rooms
for other guests, combined with
courteous treatment is their pass
word. Since father George and Tom,
the son, work together they form a
perfect double team. In addition
they have in operation a fine laun
dry, waterworks, steam heating and
many of the most modern improve
ments. Come and see them and if
you know of something better, they
are not averse to accept good sug
gestions. The new salesrooms of agriculture
Implements, Mr. Louis Strong, Sr., as
manager, Is doing better than the
most sanguine expectations vouched
for. In return, the farmers alert
enough to invest in labor saving ma
chinery, find it money well spent.
With an Increase of money earned
they aro very willing to pay the high
est rate of road taxes and in addition
to such voluntarily raise yearly con
tribution to better county private
roads. Ono of the best improved
roads is tho Coqullle-Myrtlo Point
road. Next to this, if not an equal.
Is the road from tho former up the
North Fork to Lee. This is a credit
to tho farmers and supervisor. The
people on tho East Fork have also
done some improving. Tho road
work on the Middle Fork and South
Fork have not been neglected; the
Catching Creek road leading to
Langlols deserves credit. To accom
plish perfect roads our solons In the
legislature must stop allowing dodg
ing of taxes by owners of large tracts
of timber land, who do not care If
the peoplo have roads or not.
Now let us return to tho town.
Our hardware stores show tho in
crease of business, tno narness-
makers. Mr. Pear's store Is filled up
to the last inch and still new goods
arrive. '
Our postofllco shows largo in
creases from year to year. Bringing
in dally mails and taking such away
keeps the help moving day and part
of the night.
Among tho blacksmith shops, Mr.
Charles Adams has no doubt tho larg
est and best eaulDued shop of this
kind.
Mrs. Benson's banking house Is
doing good business. It soon will
have a competitor, Messrs. Flanagan
& Bennett, who will soon bo ready
to open another establishment of this
kind. All this tends to Increase tho
development of old and now business.
When Coos Bay will be, as we all
wish It to be, when steam and electric
railroads compete with hundreds of
steamers on your bay, on our river,
carrying passengers and freight,
when fortifications and hundreds of
other enterprises largely Increase tho
population of our county, then the
value of this great and rich agricul
ture community will be fully reveal
ed to the world. Then wo will have
to feed you all, and tho best of It Is,
we
can do It.
