fgMi'jw THE DAILY COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, OREGON, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1908. 1 K Getting Ahead Of The Slu arcis S(p LOW deep whllo lmfgurdf sleep nnC you'll hivvc corn to soil and keep," wroto Benjamin Franklin.. If there is any feature of your life or business which has never been properly ex ploited in the advertising columns of tlio newspapers th opportunity is open to you to profit by Franklin's suggestion. Many of tlio ricli men of todny were the pioneer advertisers in their respective fields not so many years ago, turning tho virgin soil with tho plow of publicity while their sluggish competitors roetfully clung to tho antiquated Mice methods of another generation. "Plowing deep" is an advantageous policy under any circumstances; but 14 is ten-fold remunerative if the chance- offers to do tho plowing before others begin. Personal Notes.

Nevada Man Proposes Innova tion That Will Cut Schedule In Half. From Coos Bay to Roseburg by Auto In 10 to 12 hours Is to bo tho next innovation to which the people of this section arc to be treated. A Nevada man is financing the pro position and everything points to ita successful consummation. In regard to It the following dispatch of recent date from Roseburg Is given: "The latest project to bring the Coos Bay country nearer to tho out side world is an automobile passonger line from Roseburg to Marshfield via Myrtle Point. A company headed by E. S. Renfroo and Mel Thompsou of this city, with plenty of financial backing, has been organized for the purpose of operating a lino that will shorten the time to less than half. It takes stage coaches between 18 and 24 hours to make the trip one way. "The new company expects to open the new service about Juno 1 witb two heavy passenger cars of 00 horse power each. Mr. Renfroe has been In the auto stage business In Novadn. "The company proposes to use the Thomas flyer passenger cars. These will carry seven passengers. The plan is to have a car leave either end of tho line in the morning and make the round trip each day in summer. When the roads get muudy they will cut the time to a one-way trip a day. The distance from here to Marshfield via Myrtle Point Is about 85 miles. A light car will bo sent over the rough est parts of tho road every day or two to see that everything is in good shape. This car will carry somo ot the baggage when passenger service Is heaviest. "Mr. Renfroo will leave In a few days for Goldfield, Nevada, and bring back two 60-horsepower Thomas flyers. He says that he has traveled over rougher and muddler roads in Nevada than the Coos Bay road. "Mr. Thompson is an expert me chanic. He will have charge of ona of the cars and attend to tho repairs of all. The Coos Bay people will bo delighted if this project is successful for their nearest outlet Is Roseburg-, and it takes them a day and a night at tho best to make tho trip. "Unsuccessful attempts have been made to reach Marshfield with antos along tho beach from tho Siuslaw at Florence. Another vain attempt was made to come in from the south up tho coast from Gold Beach. The roads along tho lino now proposed are generally very good. Tho most difficult part of tho road is on the coast slope and much of that has, been covered with boards or split fir saplings, making It pqrfectly safe for all heavy carriages." SOCIALISTS MAKE THEIR NOMINATIONS Milk Famine In one family In North Bend, at least, there threatens to be a milk famine. About a week ago two milk cans belonging to Rob ert McCann went astray and they have not yet returned. Mr. McCann will be glad to receive tho prodigals back. Knights of Pythias Tho Knights of Pythias met Monday night at North Bend and gave J. C. Chambers the second degree. Joe Hodson, J. J. Durrant and R. McCann of tho Marshfield lodge attended.

At tho regular meeting of local branch 39 of tho Socialist Party ot Marshfield on February 2, tho party made nominations for all tho county offices at tho coming olectlon, except that of county school superintendent It was decided that this local will support tho nomination of another local for this ofllco. These nomina tions are to bo voted on along with, tho nominations from other locals in tho county at tho mass convention called to meet at Coqulllo on Febru ary 14. From their manner of handling tholr meeting and nominations a vis itor would infer that local 39 Is not experiencing any panic from tho lack of material for county officers. Sot eral of tho nominees tried to offor ob jections but wero howled down In every Instance. After tho regular business of tho meeting was disposed of tho debato scheduled to take place was pulled off. Great interest and attention marked tho debate from. start to finish and each of tho four speakers wanted to take another pull at tho subject, but tho chairman de clared tho debato closed under the rules. Tho speakers demonstrated that they aro closo students of Social Economics and surprised somo of tho visitors boyond measure A visitor was heard to remark, "You can't toll how far n toad can jump till you punch him." Hot lamales and hot drinks at Tho Piliu. Tho "not-neoded-now" things should ho taken to tho want d. markot.
