Address All Communications to ' COOS BAY DAILY TIME8 Marsliflcld Oregon 'ArNEW JUDGE FOR COOS AND CUIUIY. Whatever may be thought of the Ini tiative and referendum there is one Jaw upon which the people of the fetate will bo called upon to Tote which would have been submitted to 'them whether the initiative and refe rendum had been In force or not. It has always been the law that consti tutional amendments shall be sub mitted to the people to be adopted or rejected. The law referred to is that one Which provides for five judges and two "commissioners on the bench. It is not easy to keep up with the business and the court is said to be some Bix months bohind in its hearings. A case submitted today cannot bo decldod for at least six months. But the law also provides that the Circuit Court shall have pro toato powers and the effect of the change will be to abolish the county court so far as it attends to Judicial business. This change is both In the Interest of economy and public con venience. ' Coos and Curry counties are very much in need of soparato and more .efficient Judicial service. This is not V criticism on the Judiciary of the district, but simply an expression of a plain fact, namely, that these two growing counties should bo a sepa rate Judicial district with a separate circuit Judge and a separate district attorney. Coos and Curry counties are deeply interested in having the Judicial amendment to the constitu tion adopted as are indeed the peo ple of the whole state. At present, these- two counties are worso than frontier districts, because they have -to send across the mountains for both criminal prosecutions and Judicial action. If anything in tho system accentuates and makes positive the isolation of tho county, it is its re moteness from the Judge's home. The operations of the law are so slow that the largest nurse only can afford to wait for Justice and tho poor haveJ little or no chance in sucn a contest. How much the selection of a Judge 'who resides in the county and of a district attorney who can be readily called Into action, would improve the administration of justico, can bo easi ly imagined, Another thing which might be mentioned in this connection Is the very unfortunate fact that in all legal matterB affecting shipping tho people of tho Bay, have to go to Portland. It is costly, wearisome and slow. Not liptll the United States Court can have a southwestern division and hold court In Coos county can weex-" ,poct tho port of Coos Bay to have much dignity. While little can be dpno at present to Improve the legal conditions In Coos county In admiral ty matters, the people havo a chance to vote for very Important Improve ments In the court system. The busi ness and professional men of the state are united In their earnest ef forts to amend the Constitution In this respect and every voter should cast his vote In support of It. KEEPING UP APPEARANCES. Make your city advertise itself. Tho best beginning that n municipal ity can make, in considering an ad vertising campaign, Is to look well to Its nppearanco, attractiveness, and local improvements. Tho following suggestions are made: Clean streets are an exceedingly valuable advertising asset. lift tin main business htiuots 1k pim-d, if possible, otherwise surfaced and pro vided with drains. Cross walks should bo provided and kept clean. Sidewalks, preferably of cement, should bo maintained In good repair, 'Should bo of uniform construction and of uniform breadth and height abovo street level. Light tho business streets. Woll lighted streets aro probably tho most vnluable of all city Improvements from tho advertising standpoint. St. l'nul, Minnesota's, way of light, Dou vor'3 great white way and Los An geles with Its blazo of lights, and similar lighting Improvements on tho down-town business streets havo ad vertised those cities far and wide. Wreck dilapidated buildings on business stieots, If possible. Unat tructlvo vacant business property may bo hidden from view by high board fences, Campaign for n good business 'front." A neat and attrac tive business section is an Invitation to ovory visitor and means much when strangers talk of the clt,y,and discuss it with their friends. The local hotel and the city's ho tel accommodations aro probably tho most valuable of all Its advertising assets. A good hotel builds up tho city's reputation as good ns nothing else can. It means that every tra velling man will say when such a city is mentioned," Is a fine town. It has a splendid hotel." A good ho tel will bring travelling men and business men caught on the road In to tho city for the week-end. Especially with tho many beauty spots up tho Coos River and delight ful pleasure grounds and scenic at tractions, are good hotels Invaluable. Tho one chief obstacle to the build init ud of an enormous summer resort where nature intended to be tho natural stopping place for sum mer visitors. A public library speaks louder than anything else for tho intelli gence and culture of the people of the city or town. Unattractive approaches to the water front are a groat weakness. First impressions count with un usual forco. Broad, clean' and at tractive streets leading to, Impress strangers as nothing else can with the -push, progresslveness and public spirit of tho citizens of tho town or city. Rest rooms for women attract country trado and are a talking point for tho city or town. Drinking fountains for persons, at convenient street corners, are Inex pensive and a boon In hot weather. Fountains for horses and dogs are small matters', but they talk loudly for tho public spirit of tho municipality. A Full Line of SCHOOL BOOKS TABLETS AND SCHOOL SUPPLIES AT A. M.
