The Unions have not always been right. They have made mistakes. Not every strike was fully Justified from a business point of view. Nor have they all been Justified from a moral point of view. But the Unions have been right fully as often as their opponents. Indeed, their opponents have sometimes been foolishly and even maliciously stubborn, while malice has rarely been attributed to the Labor Unions as a collective motive. The celebration did not develop any radical of rabid expressions. By that It Is not meant that what was said would not have been regarded In some respects radical, some years ago. But sentiment has changed materially In the last ten years and what might have been considered as advanced thought at that time may be merely commonplace today. The sentiment expressed by ono of the speakers to tho effect that If the merchants refused to handle Union Label goods, the Unions would have to establish a store of their own, was ono which all the eastern cities are familiar with. It simply meant that In a metropolitan city Union Label goods could be obtained. If the Unions care to establish a Union Label store nobody can doubt their right to do so. If a new comer should propose to start a new store of any kind nobody would regard it as radical but would encourage ti Why not? The more the merrier. The Union has the same right and would be entitled to encouragement In Its enterprise as much as any other. Flexo Ready Roofing. Best made. Send for sample and prices.

Tho old city of Marshfield stands n the shores of the best harbor on! Ihe Pacific coast between Pueet Sound an dthe Golden Gate. Its tftlzens have been making this claim ior more than forty years and the naim it true, within tho last year r two the neonle of Marshfield jl&avo been spending money to-adver- jisu vjoua uny to me worm anu to Induce tho outside public to come Sere and Invest their money and help build up the city and dovolop the xountry. There nro six thousand (people on tho Bay many of whom have been hero or In the neighbor hood for years. Some of them own lirge tracts of land within the limits mf the peninsula cities, whinli, they xcep fast hold upon with the full ex pectation that it will make them rich. They believe the value of this land will bo greatly onhnnced by outside people coming In and build ing up around It. They consider It . snap. They have tho confidence o hold on, but they are singularly Inconsistent,, for they have no con fidence to Invest In any Improve ments. The extensive advertising of the Bay which the citizens have raised much money to pay for, is resulting in an influx of people. When the3o people como by tho urgent Invita tion extended to them they find their accommodations so poor and their reception so Ironical that they aro inclined to leave without look ing around. There is no hotel with modern conveniences In this large community of 0,000 people and tho citizens have not sulllciont confidence Bo build one. If the citizens can't Jiavo conpaenco wnom tio they ex sect to have' it? Yet it is a fact that alio attltudo of tho peoplo on this Aotel question belles all tho profes sions and claims they mako for tho Juture greatness of tho country. What aro thoy nfrald oft? There Is no Httlo pluco of a thousand people in the mo3t barren deserts of tho arid districts where tho people have Viccit bo lacking in enterprise as to fall to provide hotel accommodations , for the traveling or visiting public. Everywhero elso tho world knows that tho man who travels can mako or break a town and if no can neither 3Mi good rest nor food ho will de bujouco that town. Nobody can Kvunk Coos Bay, hut thoy can break a Tot of peoplo who have stretched themselves financially in expectation that outsiders will como hero and flmlld up the city. If you can't ac soinmodato tho traveling public with proper hotel conveniences you will find that evon Smith's mill can only result In making a saw mill town. Tou do not oven glvo your invited quests notice to bring their blnnkcts rind fetch a tent. Thoy would do -'""Crat It' thoy thought this city wore :x wilderness like Ton Mile lake and would enjoy thomsolves. But as alley have boon invited with a grent flourish of trumpets to a city of practically C.000 people, they de 33itd on your hospitality which they aru willing to pay for, but oven tiioiiey can't buy it on Coos Bay. You say this Is harsh language, at Ib Justified, however, and you will admit It. You have not failed to Sutld your hotel becauso you lack snoney, for thero Is an immense sur plus In your banks and some of tho jrstates which hold largo tracts Iero, have sold town lots enough to iuild several hotels. You havo not lfsJIed to pay becauso tho hotel would not bo a good Investment, be cause the crowds of peoplo who aro unable to get accommodations In tlho city nnd who nro ablo to pay wi-11 for them, go away grumbling tfvery day. Then, too, you know that hundreds of peoplo are coming am tho chenp colonist rates this fall. "You know, also, that tho Industries -which nro bolng actually .established aero will require two thousand peo ple nioro IiibUIo of eight months. What Is tho matter then? Is It fcllndnrss? Is it somobody's Jeal ously? Is It nnrrow rurallsm? Is H cownrdlco when thoro Is nothing So fear? Tho Times would llko to atrllco llro on this proposition. Do you suppose It can, or Is thero no aro in this flint? CURREN BROTHERS CONTRACTORS All Kinds of Work Done PHONES 543, 149 and 271 North Bend, Oregon - The Steamer I M. F.
