For the sake of the little children, at least, if for no other reason, this curse should not occupy the most conspicuous place In Marshfleld. Where then shall it be located? The question Is Insulting. Neither the paper, nor the authorities, nor the people care to extend patronage so far as to aid In the selection of a lo cation. We do not even help our business men who pursue the most legitimate lines to find a place. How much less then should honest people be expected to select the place on which a curse must rest. It must find its own place of least resistance, out not on the water front nor in the high places. Business Directory GKTTIXG IX AM) OUT. The communication of Mr. Eddy in another column of the paper does not show the best way into the Coos Bay country, but it does show that tho thousands of acres valued now at very near a million dollars, which were transferred to pay for a good wagon road, did not accomplish much in that direction. But let us say to Mr. Eddy that the road from Rose burg to C003 Bay Is not the only road. There are others. Let us also say to him that we are not boasting too much nor with a choking feeling of pride when we assort that tho Drain road Is a better one. It is, however. In case he goe3 out which we ljope so good a citizen wont think of doing let him take a pleasant launch ride the length of the bay and then a stage ride the length of a delightfully picturesque beach, over which the surf rolls playfully around the horses feet. Let him en joy the steamboat ride to Gardiner the little white city, where he may stop at a neat hotel. Then let him steam up tho Umpqua to Scottsburg and there stop over night and In the morning go by stage to Drain. 'We assure him that at Elkton on the Drain stage road he will be able to get a famous meal and It will com pensate him for iho rigors of the stage ride. But there aro other ways also to go to Portland or San Fran cisco from iilurshlleld. Tho ocean trip is one which can be mado as easily from Coos Bay as from any other place and if ho likes the sea and lt3 voyaging he will find it bet ter than the stage road. Most peo ple who come into C003 Bay love to stay here. Having arrived they do not wish to depart. The climate, the scenery, the people and the prospects aro fluctuating. While these methods of transpor tation are not ideal they lead to an Ideal country. The thousands of people who have come in hero and tho large volume of business done prqve tho richness of tho country. Tho proof of the pudding Is in tho eating and. we who have eaten stay to eat longer rtnd to eat more. Still there Is a solution of this railroad question, too. Somebody said that tho people of Coos Bay had long been waiting for a railroad to "break In." If they keep coming and stay ing and prospering as they seoln to be dolns now, they wont wait for a railroad to "break in" but will build d railroad and "break out." Tho Uoseburg-Coos Bay line was to bo a "break out" railroad but it passed into the "break In" list and broke bofoie It began. Wo might assure Mr. Eddy and wo think ho is ready tJ agree to tho proposition that while Coos Bay needs a railroad, she does not need it half so much as tho outsido world needs one to her. Sho can become a city of 15,000 peo plo on her own resources if sao never gets a railroad. But tho evidences aro very satisfactory that railroads aro on tho way. There aro 200 men at work on tho Drain road and great stores of material at Drain and Gardiner for building It. It may take two years, but it may also take less than two years to bring It into Coos Bay. There Is good reason to boliovo that If Coos Bay people would organize and obtain rights of way for a Btcam railroad to connect with tho Northwestern that tho Vanderbllt lines would also como In within tho tlmu it takes the Drain road to como In. In other words tho Northwestern could bo used as a "break out" road because It could ho commenced nt this end with ample help from tho stockholders of that company. There Is reason to expect that tho Hill in terests will speed in this direction heforo long. So Coos Bay peoplo can bo happy and they aro. COOS HAY'S MUCK. The people of Coos Bay have rea son to congratulate themselves on the success which has attended the operations of the Utter Brick com pany in making brick from Coos Bay clays. It has been frequently as serted that good brick can not bo made here and consequently the buildings nave been tnus lar con structed of wood. Result very high rates of Insurance. Now the case Is different. The largo buildings going up may be assured that good brick home-made and at a reasonable price will bo available. This is regard ed as a fortunate discovery by many of the people who have been familiar with the failures heretofore scored In this line. But the fact Is now plain enough that It was not the clays which were at fault, but the machinery and the process. Even good brick makers can not make good bricks without the tools. The addition to the list of Coos Bay's re sources of good brick clays means the Very pronounced enhancement of Coos Bay's wealth. It can not be over estimated. Doctors. E. E. STRAW, M. D.

Tho tono of Xow For the Open River to Eugene. (Etieone Guard.) Senator Fulton declares ho will work to secure the opening of the Willamette river by federal appro priation from Eugene to the Colum bia. He thinks this improvement entirely feasible and supplemented by free locks at Oregon City would prove a boon to the Willamette val ley. Senator Fulton Is right and his efforts should be appreciated and en dorsed by the Commercial Club and Merchants' Protective Association of this city. With river steamers and barges plying on the upper Willam ette as far as Eugene, there would be no need to-further agitate the rail road rate question, or discuss the car shortage problem. The present unsatisfactory transportation condi tions would be abolished forever. With tho aid of our delegation in congress It will only be a rratter of time when congress must recognize our right to substantial recognition and assistance, and wo can hasten that-'time by actively taking up tho work. Lot our commercial bodies appoint open river commUteo3 to have special 1 phone charge of this Important work, ana get busy backing up the efforts of Senator Fulton and his colleagues.

Attention was called In tho col umns of thin papor a few days agb to the unfortunato condition of tho moral atmosphere in tho vicinity of tho now oxtonsion of Front street. It is one of thoso matters which it is bard to mention nnd which It Is not desirable to have to mention, boeauso tho stain would ho mado too prom inent by constantly pointing it out. Tho comment which is being made by peoplo in regard to it is oven now vory unpleasant. Tho places which offend in that section will havo to bo suppressed.
