COAL HURXIXG i Coos Day coal Is coming more and more Into demand and now that j'ortland has discovered that It Is of -a3 good quality as any boat or car brings to that port, It Is a certainty that a much larger business will bo done In that line In 1908 (presiden tial year) than In any othor pre owling year. Coos Bay makes reg ular weekly shipments of coal to (Portland and San Francisco and, no matter what the state of the lumber market, coal will' bo In great demand 3n good times and In hard times. The Oregonlan of the second In stant contnlns the following editorial comment: "Tho Southern Pacific will place another steamer on tho Coos Bay ran, and expects to Increase materi ally tho business between Portland and Coo3 Bay ports by bringing full cargons of coal to Portland, return ing with general cargo from this city. Coal :it the present time is the most tmpo. Lint staple nrodrceil In Coos Hay, i'ud, as this port has need of tl-o li.fi In steadily Increasing quan tities, establishment of a frequent scrvit c will bo of mutual benefit to Ttiolli ports. The Coos Bay coal is said to be equal to any othor grade brought to Portland, and tho prefer ence to which articles of homo pro duction are always entitled should bo eliown it." ! t WITH THE $ TOAST AND TEA GOOD EVEXIXG Funic.

EDITOR TIMES: I was pleased to read recently In the columns of your paper an article calling attention to the tobacco evil among the young boys of Maishlleld. It may bo news to many of your readers to know that It is not only unlawful to sell tobacco to minors but It Is also unlawful for them to smoke In public. The fol lowing are quotations from tho Ore gon code In reference to this subject: Unlawful to Furnish Minor Tobacco Without Guardian's Consent. Section 1980 of the code of Ore gon provides that: "It shall be unlawful to sell, bar ter, trade, give or in any 'manner furnish to any minor under the ago of eighteen years, any tobacco, cigars, or cigarettes in any form, or any compound in which any tobacco forms a component, without the writ ten consent or order of such minor's parent or guardian; and when such minor has no parent or guardian, then in that case consent may be giv en by the county court, setting for the transaction of county business, upon proper application in the coun ty in which said minor may have his residence. Any person violating the provisions of this act shall, upon conviction, bo fined In any sum not less than five dollars nor more than fifty dollars." Unlawful for Minor to Smoke in Pub lic. Section 19S1 makes the following provision: "It shall be unlawful for any minor under the age of eighteen years to smono In any cmfwyphr years to smoke or In any way use any cigar, cigarette, or tobacco in any form whatsoever In any public high way, street, place, square or resort. Any minor violating the provisions of this act shall, upon conviction, be fined In any sum not less than ono nor more than ten dallars, or by im prisonment at tho option of the court, for two days for each offence." Thus It will bo seen that It is not only unlawful to sell tobacco to boys but It Is also a violation of the law for boys to use It in public. I think you might do something to abate this evil by giving publicity to these facts In your paper. ANTI-NICOTIN. Business Directory Doctors. D" GEORGE AV.
