The "Minnesota Night" program
lefore the Chamber of Commerce Fri
day evening was one of the most en
tertaining that has been given before
that organization. In addition to the
regular program, Joaquin Miller,
"The Poet of the Sierras" was pres
ent and spoke briefly. Those who
participated in the "Minnesota
Night" program were Mrs. Hall,
John D. Goss, Isaacson Brothers,
Frances H. Clarke and a
chorus of the younger mem
bers of the Minnesota colony. Dr.
J. T. McCormac presided. While the
speakers of the evening paid every
tribute possible to Minnesota, it was
always done in drawing a parallel to
Coos Bay and showing how this sec
tion of Oregon might duplicate or
exceed the progress that has been
made In the gopher state In recent
years.
People Must Act.
John D. Goss said that the re
markable development of Minnesota
had been due entirely to the efforts
put forth by Its citizens along com
mercial lines In general and In rail
road building In particular. He de
clared that It was transportation
that made Minnesota what It is to
day. He said that Coos Bay and
Oregon boosters spent much time in
telling of the wonderful natural re
sources of this section and In this
connection he wanted to tell them
that they could talk of these self
same wonderful natural resources
until time Immemorial but the pres
ent Inhabitants and the rest of the
world would not get any benefit from
them unless someone got busy and
arranged for their development. He
thought that better transportation
facilities was the great need of this
section. He said the people could
hasten It and may be some one might
take the Initiative and build railways
like A. B. Stlckney or J. J. Hill did
in Minnesota. Unless something Is
done by the people themselves, he
thought that the future might wit
ness a duplication of the experiences
of a pioneer at Port Orford. He said
that he had met the old gentleman
recently In Curry county and asked
him how long he had lived there and
what he had been doing and the an
swer was that ho had been there
thirty-six years and had been watt
ing for a railroad to come. The rail
road hasn't reached Port Orford yet
and thoro arcs no indications of Its
coming immediately,
Coos Bay's Future.
Frances H. Clarke told' of the
development of Minnesota and the
growth of Its cities and towns. lie
called attention to the fact that Min
nesota and Oregon had been admitted
to the Union together fifty years ago.
The great distance that separated
Oregon from the world's market had
prevented Its development but Min
nesota being In the path of the
Growth of tho United States had pro
fited thereby. Ho said that tho next
twenty-fivo years was certain to seo
a greater development In Oregon
than tho Inst twenty-llvo years had
witnessed In Minnesota. Tho build
ing of tho Panama canal, ho believed
would bo a great factor In furnish
ing a market for tho products of Ore
Kon and In developing commerce on
tho Pacific coast. Coos Bay with Its
wondorful harbor, natural resources
and the great possibility of tho
development of agrlculturo and fruit
growing In tho fertllo lnnds that sur
round Is bound to enjoy a largo por
tion of tho fruits of this growth.
Mrs. Hall's story of the pioneer days
in Minnesota was a clever tnlo of
tho usual experiences In tho early
days of tho west.
Tho mandolin selections by tho
iBaacson boys brought hearty ap
plause and encores from tho audien
ces that filled tho hall.
Likes the West.
Joaquin Miller paid a pretty trlb
uto to Oregon. He said that In tho
past quarter of a contury ho had trn
"volled far nnd wide throughout the
world but In nil his trnvols ho never
found u placo that ho would rnthor
mako his homo than In tho west. Ho
said that ho was n native of Oregon
and always considered Oregon his
homo as ho had been a tax payor in
this stato over slnco ho could romoin
hor. Tho natural beauties of tho
country appealed to him even moro
than tho commercial possibilities.

BASEBALL TO
Y
ADVERTISED LIST.
All in Readiness for Season's
Play Bandon and Coquille
Tilt.
Everything Is In readiness for the
opening of the Coos County Base
ball League season next Sunday,
North Bend playing Marshfield at
Marshfleld and Coquille playing Ban
don at Bandon. All of the teams
have been practising more or less
and will be In shape to put up good
ball, it Is believed, from the start.
Manager Arthur McKeown Is en
thusiastic over the prospects for
Marshfield. A few days, a subscrip
tion list was circulated among local
business men and about $500 was
promised, some of the pledges made
by saloonmen being conditional on
the outcome of today's election. He
Is having the grounds and grand
stand put In the best condition they
have ever been In. The suits for
the team have arrived.
Saturday, the management of the
Bandon and Coquille teams got Into
a tilt that threatened for a short
time to disrupt the league. The Co
quille management claimed that
Bandon was Importing a half dozen
or so fast players from California.
The matter was finally adjusted and
all is moving serene now.
Manager McKeown of the Marsh
field team proposes to put Its affairs
on a business basis. In order to
this, he has Issued notice that the
Marshfield baseball association will
not be responsible for any debts con
tracted except on a written order
from himself.
Revised Schedule.
The baseball schedule, which was
revised on account of the bad
whather necessitating a postpone
ment of the opening, is as follows:
