At any rate they now have a habit of accepting defeat and ex pecting it when they go up against the president. If he Is to remain pas sive, he will not get the nomination. Men who pretend to be friendly and are secret enemies, will not under stand the passive receptivity of the man who has repeatedly declared that he '-will not be a candidate More than this. He doesn't want It. If Roosevelt refuses to accept and persists even in the face of unani mous urgency, he will go down In his tory as one of the greatest of presi dents. But the remarkable record which he has been able to make In practically tvo terms and which have raised hi3 reputation to the pinnacle of glory can be named, too. Tho strong, strenuous man does not always continue in fashion. He has his day and then the mood of fickle humanity changes, and thev want somebody else. Pos3ibly Roosevelt has so endeared himself to millions of admirers that he wjll always bo a popular hero. He deserves to be if anybody does, for he has hld high the standard of honor In politics and business and has not been content with merely insisting on honesty Rut he will not gpt tho nomination if he is a merely passive candidate. DREDGING AM) DREDGING. There Is great activity on the shores of every navigable stream In the west on the subject of having the stream dredged and made navigable at the expense of the United States government. This activity Is In creased by the interest which the government of President Roosevelt is displaying in that subject. Water transportation Is the cheapest kind and has the advantage of being with in tho reach of comparatively small capital. It Is the only real competi tor of the great and exacting railroad systems of the- United States. But while -river navigation is ex ceedingly desirable, it is not absolute ly; IndlspensiblP. The ocean is the world's greatest highway and it is all the more so hpcause it is practi cally impossible for great combina tions of CTPltal to control, absolutely. Its freight carrying business. The vorld has an Imperative need for harbors and especially is this so In the long sea coast between Puget sound and Golden Gate. While the rivei'3 are clamorous for dredges, Coos Bay Is being overlooked. At the last session of congress some hope was held out to this district that a dredge would bo built at fed eral expense for the exclusive use of Coos Bay. It was needed. It would compensate fully for Its use In this harbor which i3 so much needed. But it was prettily arranged that while It a3 Intended for Coos Bay exclu sively, the appropriation should name It for the Pacific const, and that a tacit, that is reserved understanding was entered into that while Coos Bay and no special locality were men tioned, the war department would sond it to Coos Bay Now as far as the war department is concerned Coos Bay has not enough political pull to he on the map and it is not at all probable that Coos Bay will see that dredge. Let us be honest with ono another. In order to get the government to do the work it should, Coos Bav people should do enough of the preliminary Improvement to mako It plain that It Is a capacious and safe harbor and that It has the confidence which Its people assert. There Is always a sus picion among average congressmen, whose constituencies are anxious to get appropriations for their own navigable livers that a place like Poos Bav is graftinf when It asks help. The proper thing to do is to keep demanding federal nssltance, but to organize the Port of Coos Bay and issue bonds to Improve the harbor independently. It is not pro posed to be extravagant In that direc tion, but $150,000 expended would mako it certain that such ships as the Roanoke and George W. Elder would visit this bay regularly Many ships like tho "Nan Smith" would be added to the merchant mar ine Of Coos Bny One hundred and fifty thousand dollars well spent in dredging the channel between Marsh field and tho sea would add millions to the value of Coos Bay maritime business and give some big facts which Coos Bay's friends In congress could shoot Into the committeo on rlvero and harbors.
