ik BRIGHT FUTURE
FOR COOS 61'
Dr. McCormac Expects Early
Realization of Hopes For
Country's Development.
"I want to tell you that everything
points to the early coming of the
railway and also to urge you people,
who are now here, to get a hold be
fore the rush comes. I don't mean
that you all should make real estate
Investments because there are lots of
good business opportunities In nearly
all lines and the opportunity for you
Is now. Coos Day is a young man's
country. The building of the new
hotel now underway and the per
manent Improvement of the streets
which is nearer realization than ever
before are two of the things that are
going to help bring the transforma
tion. "There are big things to be ac
complished here. One of them that
comes to my mind just now is the
coming need of a fine waterworks sys
tem. The present one will soon be in
adequate and we will have to have a
greater and more sanitary supply.
Clear lake, eighteen miles north of
here, has been secured so that It may
bo turned over to the city for this
purpose. The merging of the cities
will soon come and with it the power
to Issue bonds to secure these much
needed improvements for a growing
city. The movement at North Bend
to erect a new school there will be
postponed I hope until the school
districts are merged and wo can ar
range for one great central high
school."
Dr. J. T. McCormac, president of
the Marshficld Chamber of Com
merce rather surprised those in at
tendance at Friday night', meeting by
the above bit of advice or rather sug
gestion In a talk at the conclusion
of the evening's session. He preluded
it with a summary of the situation,
especially as to the railroad, all of
which was permeated with the con
fidence and enthusiasm that has
marked his thirty odd years resid
ence here.
Fruit Inspector M. G. Pohl, L. It.
Robertson, It. T. Durett and Mr.
Saltmarsh of Portland were the
speakers that evening, all making Im
promptu talks.
Tolcpliono Men Talk.
The talks by Messrs. Durett and
.Robertson were of particular inter
eat as Mr. Durett heads a syndicate
which proposes to establish a new
independent telephone system on
Coos Day while Mr. Robertson is the
manager of the Pacific States Com
pany which already has an exchange
here. Mr. Durret's talk was along
the line that he addressed the Marsh-
field city council Thursday night,
outlining what he proposed to do.
Mr. Robertsifn followed him briefly
and told of what the Pacific Slates
Company proposed to do. lie said
that the Pacific States Company hud
plans prepared for rebuilding the
system hero and putting In a modern
exchange that would be, largo enough
for a city of 25,000 population but
thnt the work had been delayed b
tho llnaiicial flurry. However, he ex
pected it rushed ahead now as soon
ns consistent. In addition to this,
ho said that If there was any parti
cular sentiment for having the tele
phone company owned by homo capi
tal, tho Pacific States Company would
ho glad to consider negotiations for
the purchaso of their holdings hero.
To Advance l.Viiit Inti'ivMs.
Dr. M. 0. Pohl addressed the meet
ing on tho boundless possibilities of
fruit culture and truck gardening in
this section and of tho development
of tho country that tho development
oi mo industry would mean. His ad
dress was particularly strong in urg
ing that tho Marshlleld and North
Bend chambers of commerce arrange
a cordial reception and public meet
ing for the president and director of
the Oregon Horticultural society
when they visit this section In June.
Ills recital of tho wonderful fertility
of Coos Day soil and tho favorablo
climate for fruit and vegetable grow
ing was warmly applauded.
l-arge Holdings a Menace.
Mr. Saltmnrsh of Portland, in a
brief Impromptu talk, dwelt on tho
ovils of largo land holdings. He said
that ho understood that about cino
fourth of Coos county was held by a
fow moil and that most of theso were
not doing anything to develop their
property, merely holding it as an in
vestment with tho expectancy of real
izing largo sums on it in tho future
whon tho rest of tho country Is
developod. Ho said theso Interests
were a monaco and should bo eli
minated. Tho largo Interests that
work for the development of tin lr
juildlngs are beneficial to thw vlclnt
tloa where their land lies, Mr. Suit-

$ (IMUm THE OllEGOMAN APRIL U!, IDJKS)
Preaches Against lioppickliig.
OREGON CITY, April 2S. (Special) Rev. John M. Linden,
pastor of tho First Baptist church, has instituted a vigorous cru
sade against tho members of his church picking hops, stating that
It is encouraging tho liquor Interests. In a sermon Sunday night,
before a crowded church, he said. "It requires a quickened con
science to crystalllzo action against hop-picking, which is part of
tho process of beer-making."
a Suggestion
What do you think of the prohibition side of the ques-
tion? It's in the sermon. t
In 1907 Oregon hop growers raised and marketed FOUR ?
MILLION DOLLARS worth of hops.
If Oregon is voted "dry" no market in the world will
take Oregon hops. $
If Oregon votes for prohibition. Oregon brewers will t
have no use for barley or hops.
Do Oregon hop growers want to pay FOUR MILLION
DOLLARS a year for the experiment?
