Prosperity, better and saner than tho United States has ever known be fore, is foreseen for the next decade by Prof. Henry C. Adams, for twenty years in charge if statistics and ac counts for the "interstate commerce commission. Prof. Adams Is recognized as one of the closest students of industrial and financial conditions in the service of the government. His intimate as sociation with the railroads and their operation has given him an in sight into conditions unequalled. The commission's statistician has reached the conclusion that business in all lines will return rapidly to nor mal, and normal conditions are to be -exceeded quickly by extraordinary prosperity in every department of in dustrial activity. ' Both capital and labor, In his opin ion, are on the dawn of a new day. Prof. Adams declared that the hold er of stocks Is about "to come into Iiils own." He regards the depression that followed the panic of last Octo ber as a blessing in disguise, in that it will insure economy by preventing the retlurn of reckless confidence that was engendered by too much and jtoo long continued good times. "JVe are now almost through the depression to which I referred," he said today. "It was preceded by a period of intense business activity. .Inevitably during such a period men Jose more or less of their caution. JEverythlng seems prosperous and . promising, and there is less care tak en to watch the details of manage ment and expenditure. So when tao ..-depression comes and revenues fall -away, tho managers cast about for -means to reduce expenditures. Thoy have beon finding out for the larger .part of a year past where to make economies, where they were per mitting part of their money to go I:i .rio (avoidable expense. They have i&een taking in tho slack, getting things on the safe and secure basis. It has beon a severe experience, but from tho standpoint of the sharehold- .et 1t has .been really a good thing. "The depression will end and business will be good again. Its vol- . ume In the next cycle will be greater .than evor. But tho lesson of this ) .vperiod of enforced economies will not be soon. unlearned. Tho increasing . revenues will bo paralleled off - against columns showing' reduced ex penditures in many ways.

Every Coos Bay business man fre quently hears this: "You charge too much." When a Coos Bay man gets out his pocket book how his children gather 'round him. Toll of a man who has done a good deed and fow show curiosity to knpw who he is. Somehow, a Coos Bay girl can never get her glove on over her en gagement ring. The more vanity a man has and the less solf-respect, tho better his chance to get along in politics. Some time some Coos Bay girl will commit murder when a young fellow tells her he is dying for a kiss. "Does your father know I love you? ' "No. Papa Isn't very well, and we've kept It from him." Bandon Organization Wins En thusiastic Approval of Large Audience. ( The concert given by tho Bandon Concert Band at the Masonic Opera House last evening, was one of the most brilliant musical events ov-r held on Coos Bay. We are such spendthrifts with language that now and then when a little extra demand is made 'upon the dictionary for de scriptive phrases there is a panic of words and we find ourselves bn 11 rupts In expression. Thero is no de sire to be extravagant in praise of last evening's affair but common courtesy requires the ncknowledg- BIG PICNIC ON LABOB DAY Coos Bay Unions Announced Program For Celebration at North Bend, Sept. 7.

Tho public has hoard much about railroad building Into Contrnl Oro gon, but it has seen entiroly too lit tle of It. Thero has beon talk of building to tho coast, and rights of way wero secured, sometimes nt vory low prices, on the plea that tho lino was an independent one. It now turns out that from tho first It was a Harrlman enterprise. But tho mo- .anent tho so-called panic came, nil work was stopped and the enterprise apparently abandoned. An investiga tion Is now in progress upon which is said to hinge the question whether or not the work is to be prosecuted. What Is true of this enterprise is true of every other' Harrlman rail road building enterprise in the state. When tho panic camo, everything was shut down tight. It is now stated that there Is to bo some money spent In building an ex tension In Central Orogon. We hopo so, but there has been so much talk like this that The Telegram will pa tiently wait tho outcome and actual ly see the line in operation before it wastes any enthusiasm upon projects that may never materialize. Oregon has steadily and persistently got tho worst of it in the matter of railroad building, and the chief sinner has boon Mr. Harrlman. Oregon has been an imperial domain, with no other outlet, and tho treatment it has received has not been calculated to please It, little Inclined as it has ever been to bo exacting or oven to demand what It was entitled to re ceive. But tho work cannot bo much longer delayed if not by one qprpor atlon, then by anothor. With prac tically four-fifths of tho state with out railroad communication, nn in dictment Is brought against tho ex isting railroad domination that is not paralleled in tho country. It is high time that thore was railroad building In Oregon. It is likewise high time thnt it was dealt out ungrudgingly, not a mile or two nt a time, but upon a scalo commonsurnto to our noeds. That wo nro entitled to it cuts no fig ure but tho circumstance thnt It Is good business policy should.

T'e progrnm was a pretentious one for any musical or ganization but there was no evidence of amateurishness in tho supberb and splendid skill with which it was executed two except! ing the technique and understanding of the trained musician to be render ed with tho intelligence that marks music of the highest order. The au dience was keenly sympathetic with the performers, but evidenced a mu sical knowledge and appreciation of the divine art that surmounted even their very evident friendly attitude. Emil B. Kausrud demonstrated his ability as a conductor by his perfect control of the musicians. He was at all times In certain command thus securing the dynamic effects of ex quisite harmony In going from tho most subtle nuances to the surge and fury of tremendous climaxes with all the gradations of phrasing and Individual expression from the vari ous instruments. In a program of such uniform ex cellence, the only standard of supe riority would be Individual taste. Every number was received with most marked aDDroval bv tho au dience and the encores were numer-X" ous and enthusiastic. Capone's.A . "Spring Blossoms," and Moszkows ki's "Serenata" were both very en inusiasucauy receivea.
