Have a home of your own Is a good motto and the present is a good time to get it. The watched pot that contains the paving material for Marshfield streets Is slow to boll. The Coos Bay Push Club seems to have gone to sleep. What Is need ed is a stuffed club to make the Push Club push. The end of the world Is being pro phesied again, but the modern mind has In It a tinge of Emerson, who said, on hearing such a report: "Very well, we shall get along all right without it." While you are finding fault with others, be sure the reform should not begin at home. If each person was himself perfect there would be no need of reform and cries of reform. "Never kick at any news published that is given without prejudice," Is a bit of good advice given by the sago editor of the Albany Democrat. A poor man can not deviate from regular hours of toil, regular hours of rest, and a r gular life in general. Only the idle rich can afford to be eccentric and dissatisfied. The discussion on the amount it costs to keep a hen one year brought out the declaration from a southern editor that it depends entirely on whether the hen plays bridge. Isn't that Editor the mean thing? Medford has just voted to bond Itself in the sum of $300,000 for a municipal water system and the city will go to work, without delay, and build. Medford is another west ern Oregon city that is forging rapid ly to tho front This is something Marshfiehl must be thinking about soon. NOW IS THE TIME. The Times agrees with nnd desires to ondorso the advice of one of its advertisers that now is the timo to build. It is an auspicious timo for anyono contemplating building to go ahead with tho.'r enterprises. Lum ber men generally state that tho in dications aro that prices will ad vance ns soon as tho rate question Is settled, as It probably will bo even tually, perhaps within a month or two. There Is nl least a good sign that now Is probably tho cheapest timo that will prevail for building, something which makes its own sug gestion. This Is not given In tho In terest of tho iunibor business, but in tho Interest of boosting Coos Bay. HEBE'S TO THE LADIES. Tho onterprlslng women of Coos Bay aro to play an acflvo part in civic improvement. Tho A. N. W. Club or Mnrshfleld nnd the Beautiful Amorlca Club of North Bond havo al ready proven their worth as active agents in tho promotion of progress along these Hues. No city can reach tho highest state of bonuty and symmetry without the delicate and artistic touch of worn nn's hand, or at least the work being done under her direction. Then here's to the ladles who aro to be of such valuable usslbtance In boautl fjiiig the city. LOCAL OPTION HELPSMIENE Prominent Lane County Busi ness Men Say it Has Been a Great Benefit. The following Is a self-explanatory letter which should be read carefully by every voter in Coos county before he votes on the local option question at the general election next Monday: EUGENE, Ore., Apr. 23, 190S. Gentlemen: Believing that Local Option as ap plied to Lane County, Oregon, has passed the experimental stage, hav ing been tried for nearly two years, you should now be ready to state from personal experience, whether or not the prosperity of the City of Eu gene Is dependent upon the presence of the saloon. As business men we respectfully request that you reply to the follow ing questions, with permission to use your name for publication, if It is so desired: First. "In your opinion, has your business suffered any since Local Op tion went Into effect two years ago?" Second. "Do you not think that the absence of the saloon Is desir able, on account of the University being located here?" Third. "Do you not think that the absence of the saloon Is desirable for the protection of our boys and girls?" Fourth. "Do you favor the pres ent conditions, i.e., a 'dry town'?" Fifth. "Do you favor the return of the saloon to our city?" Note. These signatures were all In favor of Local Option, and not one business man would sign In favor of the saloon. Note. With two or three excep tions, these signatures were secured for each question, the exceptions be ing principally due to the fact that some had not been here two years and could not sign for conditions prior to the time the law became ef fective.
