These words, in- Jecd are pregnant with meaning and 'all of prophetic Import for what -ust bo some day tho ultimate out- i of tho baj'si destiny. As Mr. .-pDith. very truly suggests, nothing i j revent this result, but tho iu- ijfTerence of tho peoplo may delay (l will not bo regarded as a crltl- t.i of Mr'. Smith's views, wo hope, if "vvo talco the liberty to express K aarao views in amplification of hi. Xor tvIII It be regarded as impertinent ," Tre suggest, that Mr. Smith is in tl position, if ho only knew it, to TSiArten very materially tho accom plishment of the plan of a harbor a tiijIo and a half wide. What Coos "Say wants and wants badly Is leader ship. The peoplo are ready to do anything they think they can do. Tfaqy are not Indifferent, but most of 'm frankly admit that they have wbti engaged In lines of work which 'jsaUe them unfamiliar with building Klts. They want a leader in whose sasracity and energy they can have ii Bfldence. They want somebody to '"n them what tho first stop is which vill onablo them to reach tho ob- jf.iu How can they got together so a xo work out their problem? ' A harbor a mllo and a half wide -e-qnires concerted action on tho part ' the people. They must net to- ?U)er. They must, bofore they can ai anything, get togothor and consoll- ' in na one community. For oxam- -Trtv: Tho mud, which Mr. Smith says b. no impediment to dredging, is "-vHirally, easily romoved. But le- T"?)y some two hundred acres of that -T'wl bolongs to certain individuals ao luwo diverted a title, succoss ru' from tho United States govern- -joeut. Tho owners do not feel able j" give up those flats for nothing nnd Hi Tnust bo evident that they will not, ii'r will tlio United States govern ment buy them. Such Is not tho gov 'jarnaiont policy. Tho several cities off the bay must unito on tho bur zroush plan Tho sniuo plan on which j-tf-clty of Now York has consolidated tho same plan which A. H.

Thoso bonds so Joil will no doubt bo accepted by iJve owners of tho flats and when tho wo hundred ncres nro dredged out & will bo possible- to leave fifty acres it au Islond which will bo worth tho winds, tho cost of dredging and much amoro, in othor words, If tho men who havo lnrio Interests horp, and .inrtJcularly Mo?srs.

HITS A THIEF The man who "knocks" tho busl- b that paj his salary la a thief Bt i-eprotjenU the worst form of dis- ijtufciay found In iho cntogory . Ba- t:- him the employoo who pllfera tho u i8 hanul88 and roipeotnble; -a- burglar a gentleman, and th Uiway robbor a knight orant with it --ilo around his head. Words that would adequately do- scribe him havo yet to bo coined. You can only understand his villainy ap proximately under tho white light of comparison. Take everything in the commercial world that Is absolutely bad, view it in the worst possible light, and tho man who "knocks" tho business that pays him is indefin itely worse. For this crime against business ethics there can bo no ex cuse, no palliating circumstances. nothing that will vindicate tho crim inal in tho eyes of fair minded men A man who knocks the business that pays him is a cringing coward of tho most contemptible kind. If ho wero not ho would have manhood and courage enough to quit and seek an other position. Many a firm has been temporarily embarrassed, many a man has been forced into bankrupcy because of tho irreponsiblo or malicious utterances of somo trusted employee, some knocker who was paid to servo tho business not to throttlo It. "If you must "knock" quit. Get out out of that position and draw your salary from other sources be foro you opon tho attack. Don't bo a traitor," says an exchange "It is doubled) oil, cowardly, vlllalnly to be tray a trust in that way." Sherman said, "War is hell," and overybody but tho jingo agrees with him. Yet no other crlmo undor war conditions Is so soveroly punished and so loathed, oven by thoso who profit by It, as tho crlmo of tho trait or to tho causo ho has espoused. If in hell tho traitor Is tho lowest and most detested, what is his social standing on earth? What would bo his commercial ratlug where charact er Is an nssot? If you "knock" tho business that pays your salary you aro a traitor of tho dcepost dyo and tho scum of tho oarth would suffor moral con tamination by social contact with you "I came all the way from Iowa to seo your bay," remarked a new ar rival to Capt. O'Kelly. "Somebody's been stringing vou stranger," replied O'Kelly. "It aint mine." "I like to hear your wife talk." re marked one Coos Bay man to an other. "She has such liquid tones, as It wero." "You bet she has," replied the hus band. "Her talk simply drowns every other sound." "The lot is only fifty by one hun dred but you can build as high as tho sky," remarked the Real Estate man. "Then the purchase price includes tho sky," remarked the prospective purchaser. "Prosperity is a relative term." says tho "Small Chango" man In tho Portland Journal. "Somo men with a million would not think themselves prosperous, while others would see prosperity in a week's receipt for board and lodslnc in advance." J WHY SJO t-OLE ZJY IN SENGSTACKiLN EDITION?
