For Coos Bay It has ne-n ovontful nnd Is In every way the most prosperous In Its history. U Is silso prophetic and what It has fur nished must bo, In tho order and na ture of things, fulfilled. What has been accomplished Is not apparent to one who was no famlallar with conditions In 1900 but to those who aw tho city In tho summer of that year and havo witnessed Its growth since tho Inst Now Year's day, Marm Uleld Is almost a miracle. It has watlsfled tho most glowing expecta tions of Its most sanguine friends. That this has been and Is duo in 'i largo measure to tho locution of tho O. A. Smith mill In Us limits, Is very 3Vlilont, but It should not bo over looked that other roiourccn thin timber nnd other Industries than lumbering hnvo Homo attraction bi.h for capital and population and that a vciy hugo portion of tho lncreaso in both respects Is traceable to such , JittructiuiiH.

Tho P'nungan & lUi'iiiiftt Dank, tho Kim Trust and livings Dunk, tho Rogers, tho O'C j.i especial concern of tho people of Coos Day cities has not received much practical attention In 1907 but It Is believed that with a little activity tho people can get the large govern ment dredge for use In widening and deepening tho channel and can havo $25,000 to pay operating ex penses. This is one of tho fruits of 1907 and tho people have only them selves to blame If this opportunity slips away from them. It Is what 1907 devises to 1908. 1908 Is but an Infant In Its cradle and cannot take this gift unless the chambers of commerco act in its behalf. If Coos Day doesn't want this dredge there are enough other places on the coast which do. Tho harbor of Coos Day should feel that although 1907 has been without practical and actual benefit that It has placed 190S In a position to make memorable Improvements. iF'HBw-13 Berryman in Washington Star.

ROSEDUKG, Dec. 31. Few Rose burg people realize that this city is the headquarters of the largest sub sidiary branch of tho forestry service In the UUi.eu States. Apace with the rapid development of the service, tho local branch has grown under tho guidance of Hon. S. C. Dartrum, now superintendent of the Southern Ore gon district, until It has reached business proportions probably great er than that of the local United States land office. While the land office receives a larger number of visitors, its correspondence and scope of duty falls far short of equaling that of the forestry office. With an office force of seven clerks Supt. Dartrum is housed in the upper story of the new Roseburg National Dank building. He has four offices, affording a total floor space of about 000 square feet, and this lacks a good deal of being sufficient for all There is a public entrance room, the abstracting and draughting room, an office for private consulta tion and a room for making blue prints. No offices are better equipped for their requirements. Supt. Dart rum prides himself especially on his filing system and facilities, also on tho equipiunet for making blue prints. Taken as a whole, there seems to be nothing lacking in the WE MAKE GAS ENGINES AND BOATS Speed Lannchts and Enginet a Specialty All Clanes of Boat and Engine Repairing Promptly Attended to Shop.in the North Bend Woolen Mills North Bend, Oregon 11.
