The dredging of Coos Bay is short ly to be undertaken. The guaranty ot this promise will be found in the fact that the people of Coos Bay or Marshfleld, North Bend, Empire and all who reside where they can Geo the waters ebb and flow are putting their own shoulders to the wheel and propose to perform this great work themselves. The Coos Bay Dredging company is being formed and the committee appointed at n. mass meeting of citizens Is now ready to receive stock subscriptions. Tho now company i3 organized on a basis of 573,000 capital. There are 7, GOO shares which aro to bo sold at $10 per share. The incorporators are E. Mlngus, Henry Sengstacken, Eugene O'Connell, J. E. Oren, Wil liam Grimes, James II. Flanagan, J. T. JilcCormac and L. J. Simpson. Al ready C. A. Smith has subscribed 910,000, L. J. Simpson has sub iicrlbed ?10,000 and other subscrip tions amount to three thousand more, 'i'ho people are asked to subscribe for Crom one share to as many as they can afford. As it Is the people's tnovcraent tho result of a mass meeting which everybody attended Und at which everybody was enthu siastic there Is no doubt that the full amount will be subscribed. The mail who owns real estate on Coos Bay knows that his real estate has no value except that which tho oea. channel of the bay bestows. Who men who have largo interests Should not be expected to do all this work. Tho people do not expect It. Tho C. A. Smith holdings arogreat but tho holdings of all tho people pro Many times greater. Tho Smith company has done much. It has al "vays been ready to do its part. Now lot tho peoplo of Marshfleld show that they aro not only ready to do theirs but that they aro big enougn tind wiso enough to know and under stand tho bourco of their prosperity. This subscription books are open at tho Chamber of Commerce rooms and everybody should go and sub scribe without bolng hunted up and Importuned. The amounts subscribed aro not &lvon to but aro Invested In this com pany. If over a stock proposition promised good returns to tho stock holder, this does. Thoro aro somo 922,225.09 availablo from tho gov ernment fund for dredging and Col. Itocssler has recommended that it bo used for dredging tho Inner bay. Prlvato parties aro ready to mako contracts with this company lnvolv 3ng many thousand dollars worth of work. Tho prospects aro that It will 4jo ono of tho most profitablo nud necessary enterprises from tho viow liolut of prosout demands ovor Inau gurated ou coos Hay. It Is good as a. mere Investment and It is a tho.i sand tlmos bettor as improving the value of Coos Bay ns a world harbor imfl. tho valuo of ovory foot of roal cjsWit In tho vicinity of tho harbor. ri.'ho moment the drodgo begins opora 'Uouk, that moment the history of Coos Buy begins and she will mako an Impression which cannot bo for- tfioUim. It you lmvo only ton dollars Vroros It In tho dredge. If you lmvo jnoro Invest It. This movement Is but the initial one. Tho consolidated and united peoplo of the C003 Bay district will insist on carrying the work forward at the public expense. That 13 the way It must bo done. When tho city of Coosbay is organized under a proper charter it will have full power to raise money by taxation to Improve tho harbor. It can issue bonds and raise money by the sale of them to widen and deepen tho channel. The dredge will be ready when the city of Coosbay needs it. It will have all tho work it can do all the time and until it has to bo re placed after being worn out in the service of tho public. HARRIMAN STOPS ' EXTENSION WORK FRANK WILSON PROVES ALIBI Linn Counly Man nt Cnnvfordsvillo Day of Brown Tragedy. Albany, Or., Oct. 16 The Trank Wilson who is now at Crawfords vlllc, Linn county, does not appear to be the slayer of Harvey K. Brown, for he proves an alibi in the fact that he was at Crawfordsvllle when Brown was killed. This he affirmed over tho telephone this morning, and his statement was verified by Crawfordsvllle men. Furthermore, ho never heard of Frank Tucker, who charged the crime to Frank Wilson, "born and mised in Linn county." Frank AVilson, of Craw fordsvllle, is the only man of that name who has lived in Linn county In recent years. Talking over the long-distance telephone this morning, George Fin ley, a leading citizen of Crawfords vllle, told the Oregonian represen tative that AVilson was at his house now, and had been there the past two weeks, arriving before the Ba ker City tragedy occurred. "AVilson," said Finley, "lived right here in Crawfordsvllle until about four years ago, and has been In Prinevlllo ever since, until I wrote him to come homo this fall, as I cojld sell his timber claim. He is now here attending to the transfer of this property." MAN AV1IO KILLS BANDIT FREE Gust Liniley AVill Not Re Tried for Murder of Jake Terry. Bolllngham, AVash., Oct. 16.
