FOREST FIRE PROTECTION.
Douglas,, Coos, Curry and JoscpliJno
Counties Better Patrolled.
GRANTS PASS, Ore., July 10. To
guard against forest fires in the big
fir and pine reserves of southern
Oregon, the national forest service,
through its southern Oregon divi
sion, is taking extra precautions and
placing larger crews In the woods.
Forest fires have done considerable
destruction to the big trees of the
reserves In years past.
Supervisor M. J. Anderson has es
tablished camps of rangers jn every
district of the reserves of Douglas,
Coos, Curry and Josephine counties.
More men are on guard this year
than ever before, and it is believed
that the breaking out of fires can be
prevented.
Once started It is impossible to
stop the forest fires, and the men
employed by the service will arrest
every violator of the forest service
rules, Only one fire has occurred
thus far this season, and this was a
comparatively small blaze in the fir
timber near West Fork, southern
Douglas county. Rangers put it out
before it spread.
To better protect the forests, tele
phone lines have been strung from
the headquarters In Grants Pass to
all the main camps and the camps
themselves are connected by wire.

MAT
WILL COME UP
County Commissioners to Pass
On Several Important Pro
jects Next Week.
Judge John F. Hall has returned
from Coqullle where he has been at
tending tho regular quarterly session
of the Coos County Board of Com
missioners, the session being ad
journed until next Monday until E.
A. Anderson recovers sufficiently
from his Injuries to be able to at
tend. The commissioners audited
bills and attended to some detail
work but left the larger propositions
until a full board could consider
them.
Monday, tho question of complet
ing the elevated plank roadway be
tween Marshfleld and North Bend
will be brought up for discussion.
There is a petition of remonstratnee
in against this proposed work. Some
of the commissioners are said to be
In favor of completing it anyway.
Another matter that will come up
.Is the request of J. H. FJanagan and
others who subscribed $5,000 or
thereabouts to construct the Penn
sylvania avenue drawbridge across
Coal Bank Inlet In order to develop
their holdings in Bunker Hill addi
tion, Bay City, etc., to have the
county reimburse them and take the
bridge oft their hands.
There is also a lively controversy
over a proposed road In the Coqullle
valley, some interests opposing it
and others urging its construction.
As yet, the construction of the
proposed drawbridge to open up the
road to Sunset Bay and Bandon has
not been brought up.
walks will be put in on Front street
The majority of the citizens favor ce
ment and concrete walks providing
the fill can be made sufficiently solid
to support them. Contractor Mc
Cann says that he can make a good
sidewalk on a plank base with an
asphalt covering providing the fill
will not support concrete,

StaufE who was Injured in a launch
accident July 4 th, is reported much

erely bruised so that it will be some
time before she fully recovers,

the sample products of what grows
in the Coos Bay country are now,

merce daily. Yesterday two strawt
berries weighing an ounce and a
quarter were brought in from Jack
