IT ft f fl IPERKY LAUDS , ISJEC1N Boise Jurist Presents Graphic Picture of the Coos Bay Country and Cities. Judge K. I. Perky of Boise, Idaho, who has been spending considerable time in Coos Bay recently, looking after his Investments here, most of which are in what is known as Boise addition, is circulating the gospel of opportunity as held forth by Coos Bay. The Boise Capital-News of re cent date had tho following Inter view from him concerning the Coos Bay country: "I found a most beautiful little city, situated on the hills around the bay, with ranches nestling all round tho bay and river, with the trees in bloom, the ferns nodding their grace ful leaves and tho evergreens of many varieties keeping watch upon every hillside; with the beautiful myrtlo trees; with the bay and river constantly alive with the launches , he bid the Past Grand Chief of Honor of the ranchers who bring their prod-1 welcome to the lodge and to the uce to market in this novel way, with hearts and homes of Coos Bay. Tho the passenger steamers plying up and response by Mrs. Herrln was equally down, with the fisherman making , eloquent, gracious and witty. This Ws dally catch, and with the steam- was followed by Interesting and en ers from San Francisco, from Port- tertaining little talks by S. B. Cath land and from Eureka, loading and icart, D. L. Rood, Mrs. E. Mingus and unloading their cargo bringing in 'a tribute to "Our Grand Chief of numbers of passengers and much Honor." Mrs. Hattie E. McCormac, merchandise, and returning loaded by Jas. T. Hall, in which the speaker with coal from the coal mines of .plucked the fairest flowers In the Marshfield, which finds a fine market all along tho coast, and is the only coal mine in this country which loads its vessels from its own dock. "I attended a meeting of tho Chamber of Commerce while there, and listened to speeches from num erous parties who are all united In feeling that this is to be a metro polls of the coast. "With tho harbor deepened, for which an appropriation has been rec ommended to congress; with the sec ond largest lumber mill In the Unit ed States, and with unlimited mate rial to work from, with its own ves sels for shipping, now employing over 1,000 men, and expecting to Increase this number to 4,000, many of these with families, will have to Le provided with homes; and with coal mines, whoso supply seems to bo Inexhaustible; with most fertile iand, especially suited to dairying and fruit growing, their pride being that they have no wormy fruit; and with factories starting for tho utiliza tion of the nutivo lumber, some of which is the beautiful myrtle; with all modern improvements; with a people who believe in their country and know the reason for the faith that Is in them; with a climate that varies but a little over 12 degrees tho year mound, one can understand why they are expecting so much from their country. "While in this delightful spot, 1 had the pleasure of meeting several Idaho people, and all wero prosper ing and happy, hopeful of tho future for Coos Bay, but with an abiding lovo for tho sage-brush country, and none of them but with words of pralso for Idaho, her delightful cli inato and her many opportunities. Idaho seems to have a place In the hoart3 of her pcoplo all her own, which no prosperity, no pleasures of other places seems to bo ablo to put aside. 'Plirt ncnaiinnln fin Mw ivi 1 lirtn d never seems to have been blighter, as tho company has contracted for much of the pioducu along the right of way and they aro more than hope ful of Its completion in the near future. Tho entire country around tho bay is one garden spot and most picturesquely located; many modern homes, many having their prlvato launches, and summer homes down 'a cozy corner In tho cabinet of pleas tho river, whero nature seems to ant memories. liavo done her best for making a spot for recreation, and with prosperous commercial conditions, they seem n favored peoplo in many ways."
