It has been learned with regret pat through the misunderstanding, pistalce or defection of somebody, ho "dredge Intended for Coos Bay," Bit which the congressional act pro- Idinp for it expressly designs for tho Jregon and Washington coasts, will Je built In Portland and not on Coos J. Simpson is Still Active in An Efforts to Induce Portland Finn " To Do the Work nt (Ills Point. "Colonel S. W. Roessler forwarded a recommendation to the department at Washington this morning that the bid of $S0,000 received from the Portland Iron Works for the con struction of a dredge to operate along the coast of Oregon and Wash ington coasts be accepted. He also suggested tho substitution of a steel jiv T'hnt flip wnnimn nnrMnn nf If feuld bo constructed cheaper hero ta"k,ln P'aco ,of wood' a lla(1 been called for In the specifications, which will entail an additional cost of $11,000.

But In spite of this the Pqrt- (aud Iron Works cot tho contract and 3fr somo reason Kruso & Banks were at put by the military department in rpoyition to figure on the plans and specifications. It is claimed by Bnntor Fulton that this dredgo was ic result of special lnhors with con fess on behalf of Coos Bay and there no doubt whatever that the claim true. But If it is to be used on 903 Bay, It would seem to tho ordln- mind that It would have been fnr litter to have It built on Coos Bay, rather than Incur the exnenso of ringing It down tho yulvo miles, .the Columbia one hun- Ired miles and tho coast two hundred alios. i be operated almost wholly In salt water. According to tho terms of the con tract the successful bidder must have the vessel completed and ready for service In eight months. She will be equipped with powerful machinery and will be one of the most service able dredges on the coast. An end less amount of work has been laid out for tho craft at Coos Bay, Tilla mook, Grays Harbor and at other points in Oregon and Washington. Portland Telegram. !

Tho manner in which Coos Bay has been Ignored in tho matter, since tho proposition originated on the bay, has caused considerable Indignation among local people. Tho latter be lieve that It would have been more foaslblo to havo tho body of tho dredgo constructed hero and tho ma chinrey could havo been shipped. It would also havo proven to out siders that Coos Bay can do some thing in tho construction lino her self. S Since the dredgo Is being built at Portland, It is folt that Coos Bay's chances to over securo tho use of tho dredgo nt an early date will not be probable. It is believed that the dredgo will havo cleaned out the Columbia river from Astoria to Portland, and all tho small harbors within reach of that river, beforo being brought to Coos Bay, tho southernmost port of both Washington and Orogon. Had the dredgo been built at this port, Coos Bay would havo had tho first uko of It, which appears altogether lmprobablo nt present. LATKH. SInco tho above was placed in typo it has been learned that with highly coinmondablo. public enterprise, L. J. Simpson has not yot given up the plan for having this dredgo built on Coos Bay. As soon as ho learned that the Portland Iron Works wns tho successful bidder ho Immediately entorcd Into correspondence with thorn making overtures for tho con struction of tho drodgo on Coos Bay and offering concessions tljnt would be advantageous to tho Portland Arm to havo tho work dono at this point. As the contract lias not beon olosod by the government thero havo been no developments along this new line of effort. What care I for the lees of life When I havo drunk the wine? How should I take the grass to wife, When sweet Red Rose is mine? Or, having danced the saraband . Within the palaco gate, And bent above the young queen's hands In stolen tete-a-tete. How should I stoon to meaner joy. Carousing at the inn A barmaid for my vulgar toy, A heartache for my sin? Nav standing at the nalace gate, s any beggar might, t II sing my love song as I wait into tho lonely night I'eirhaiuv an echo of my voice May find its way within, And help her to some queenly choice Where elee a doubt has beon. Whlie in some lull of music there, A memory may rise Of kisses on her royal hair, And Love's lost "Paradise. Fredrick Truesdell. O "That was a foolish discussion about the gender of tho Mllllcoma club," remarked the Scholar as ho took his scat in the Poet's Corner. I am surprised that two such erudite delvers In ancient lore as Jack Flanagan and Claude Nasburg should engage in it. Now if they hail only barkened back to the days when they wrestled with Greek verbs and Latin declensions they would have quickly realized that the word "Mllllcoma" is of undoubted Greek derivation. It is formed of tho two words Mil or Mel, mean ing "honey" and the other greek word, Koma or Coma meaning "rest." There you have It "Swect rost" and a very appropriate name It Is, too, for a club "sweet-rest." "Well, I should say so," remarked Bill Lawlor, aa he threw himself down on a luxurious settee to In dulge In "sweet rest." Thereupon the meeting elected the Scholar to the position of Club His torian and adjourned to the Goldlo room. Graduate of American School of Osteopathy Ktiksvtlle, Mo.
