Local Engineer Believes Hill's
Coast LinevWill Beat Drain
Railroad.
Sentiment on Coos Bay regarding
railroad construction is to the effect
that the Northern Pacific will bo
running trains Into this city before
the Southern Pacific road between
this point and Drain 13 completed.
This is tho firm conviction of a num
ber of men who claim to be on the
InslriQ rnunrrtlnir the work of SUr-
veyors w ho have been on tho coast
between this point ana seaside, at
tho end of tho Northern Pacific road
on the coast of Oregon.
"I know for a fact," said Engineer
Charles Codding, this morning, at tho
chamber of commerce, "that the Nor
thern Pacific has had men In tho
field between Sluslaw and Tillamook
for the past two summers. They
have been going over tho coast
thoroughly looking for a good route
for the extension of tho road from
Seaside down tho coast to Sluslaw
and to Coos Bay.
"The activity shown by the Nor
thern Pacific on the Oregon coast Is
proof that tho assertion recently
made by J. S. Dellinger, cf Astoria,
that t.his company would continue
Its road along tho coast, 13 correct.
There 13 no doubt that when once the
route has been secured tho construc
tion will follow rapidly because the
Northern Pacific rushes matters
when onee It btarts doing things.
"Meanwhile, tho Southern Pacific
Is attempting to corral tho trade be
tween this poit and Portland by put
ting on extra boats and with consid
erable success. The Czarina Is (o be
put on the run with the Breakwater
so as to secure all tho freight pos
sible and to holS the field for this
railway extension to bo completed
from Drain to Coos Bay.'
TO COIN NO MORE

St,
Gnudens' Design Abandoned No
Return of In God Wo Trust.
NEW YORK, Jan. 11. A Washing
ton special to a New York paper says
the last of the St. Gaudens ?2 0 pieces
has been struck oft. Mint Director
Leach said: "Wo had to change tho
die after tho first 8000 were struck
off. It was found that the high,
rough, edge was too subject to abra
sion, so wo milled the edge. Then
complaints came In that tho flguro
of Liberty was so high that tho coins
would not stack, so we changed tho
die again.
"Then some ono said that if wo
continued to deslgnato the dates by
Roman numerals there would not bo
room for them after awhile. On that
wo again changed the die and put
In Arabic numerals. That loft St.
Gaudens' design a whole lot disfig
ured. We had decided to abandon
the old die entirely, but demands for
the original coin became bo numerous
we let it .work for a tlmfe, but no
more St.. Gaudens' eolns will bo
minted."
"In Gpd We. Trust" will not ap
psar oa colus to" be minted beieafter.

Fifth Inquiry Made for Lost
Man in Less Than Six
Weeks.
Numerous enquiries are being
mado for sons In this section and
hardly a -week goes by that some
mother does not send to Coos Bay In
search of a son who was last heard
of In this place. The latest Is an
onauiry from Mr. and Mrs. J. S.
Campbell, of Norden, Neb., who have
not heard from their son Arthur
D. Campbell since last September,
-n-hon lir wna wnrlrlnf? fit n. local lum
ber camp. The letter was received by
Rev. w. It. F. Browne, ot tno juetu-
odist Episcopal church:
Norden, Neb., Dec. 31. 1907.
"Dear Bro. We have a son away
from home. He wrote us trom your
city about Sept. 1st, and we answered
the letter about the last of Septem
ber, and the letter was returned to us
uncalled for. Ho said ho was work
ing in the timber. We are very anxi
ous about him. We thought perhaps
if anything happened to him you
might know it. Ho will be 23 years
old next February if he lives. His
name is Arthur D. Campbell
Kindly enquire every place you think
It would be possiblo to get a clue as
to where he Is. We would be glad
to pay any expense that Is Incurred.
We remain
Youre truly,
MR. AND MRS. J. S. CAMPBELL."
This makes at least flvo enquiries
for lost persons in this county within
the past six weeks, and there appears
to be something radically wrong
somewhere. If he same number
were missing from every spot in tho
United States in the same length of
time, nearly every citizen of tho
union would bo lost Inside of a year.
It Is thought that most of the men
missing at this point have written to
their parents, but owing to tho con
dition of the mall service the an
swers have been delayed or lost al
together. Another feature of the
missing sons; Is that In nearly
every case they were lajjt
heard of as working In tho log
ging camps, and In that case they do
not have writing desks provided for
their use, and it may bo that thov, be
came slack in their correspondence.
BOOSTER LYON ABROAD

Marshfleld chamber of commerce,

ELECTRIC POWER FROM
THE MIDDLE FORK
Development of Energy From Coos
County River Being Investi
gated. E. V. Hawley, a grandson of Orvll
Dodge of this city, is here on a visit
and to look up the possibilities for
electrical development in this section.
Mr. Hawley Is principal of tho elec
trical engineering department of the
agricultural college at Corvallls. He
has begun investigating tho possi
bility of developing electric energy
from tho Mlddlo Fork at a point
about six miles south of Myrtle Point
and Is confident that there Is suf
ficient power going to waste there
which, If put to use, would bo a great
factor In the development of the val
ley. Ho has been interviewing tho
business men and property owners to
see what encouragement would bo
given to such an undertaking and has
met with gratifying success here. On
Tuesday he left for tho Coquille and
the lower river to Interview the peo
ple and if ho finds sufficient en
couragement will return in the spring
and further developo tho project. Ho
also Intends to Interview tho people
on tho Bay for tho same purpose.
He Is confident that thero is power to
light the various towns of Coos coun
ty, furnish power for tho various in
dustries and generate a current ror
an electlc lino. A flumo to carry tho
water from ono level to another
would bo the method of generating
the power. Myrtle Point Enterprise.
