THE CHAMBER OK COMMERCE.
The past year and a half has wit
nessed a complete revolution in the
appearance of the city and spirit of
Its people. Marshfleld today Is so
entirely unlike that of the earlier
slate that people who have not seen
It frequently are much surprised. It
lias now much the appearance of a
.city. Its streets are, many of them,
graded and paved. Its old buildings
2iave been renovated and painted.
Jts corners have been improved by
the construction of elegant brick or
'cement buildings. It has a hotel
under construction which will be the
tallest, best equipped and finest as
ifar west in tho United States. It has
imany miles of new elevated road-
-ways and hundreds of new resi
dences. The largest and best equip
ped saw mill on the Pacific coast has
been built and is in operation. Sev
eral large carriers of freight have
T)een added to the merchant marine
of the port. A dredge costing one
$rrmdred thousand dollars has been
constructed for the port and will be
In operation shortly. Many small
.private factories of one kind or an--other
have been started and metro
politan stores have been established.
iNor is this all, in the same time
that the city has shown this marked
improvement other great accom
plishments have been scored. The
Tbay, tho district, the county and the
coast as well as the interior attrac
tions, Iiave become famous. They
ihavo been advertised rationally. The
.-.attention of capital has been chal
lenged to some purpose. A fruit ex
hibition a year ago In Marshfleld
stirred .the horticultural world of
'Coos county to great efforts and
jproved that for certain kinds of
'iruit, notably apples and strawber-
Tles, the Coos Bay country and the
(Coqullle basin, wore without a su
j3M3rIor on earth. An inspector was
'-detained for this district under the
3aw. Fruit growers associations were
formed. The orchards which had
Jjeun neglected were pruned and
finado productive. New orchards
f-lnradreds of acres wore set out.
The gravensteln applo of Coos Bay
f. .and county became famous. A
'iflalry Inspector was appointed. The
vdrtby conditions were improved and
. the prospects of development in that
direction enlarged. Out of the fruit
tfhlblt of last year the first great
ffulr under the auspices of the South-
- era Oregon Pair Association, has
irown. Thousands of people visited
tJln (city during fall week, thronged
Hb -paved streets, spent money, noted
jihe improvement and went home to
"8lp the praises of Marshfleld. The
i -people of the city are to bo congra
1 tnlated.
lHas jthe itlmo now arrived to stop
t this' development? Shall wo quit
3rnproving? Shall wo disband the
V-tfonces which have, through coopera
tion, taccompllshed theso wonders, or
Stain wo continue tho great work,
.Jiulld asrity of .no moan Importance,
davelop. ilic-country to Its fullest and
make vtzs&a. port which shall be ono
t of 'tbjr five greatest on this coast?
J?low was this great change accom
plished?. The plain answer Is
througli the cooperation of capital
and iho pride of Marshfleld people In
jthejr own city.
An Important factor in this co-operative
work has beon tho Marsh
iSeld Chamber of Commerce. It has
he3ned to concontrato tho energy of
tiho Tcoplo and direct them In tho
channels of roal achievement. Tho
iCbnzn&er has had a hand In ovory
umprovemont which has beon ac
complished. But there Is greator
work to bo done in tho coming year
than was done last year. Tho dredge
Is coming. Somobody must arrango
tor salo of tho dirt removed from tho
liarbor so as to get tho funds to keop
It bore. Tho apinoprlatlons expected
(this fall by congress must not lonvo
Coos Bay out of tho list. Thoro are
railroads to bo encouraged and fos
tered and tho Times Is not dreaming
ikCnot that thou iimooth the ap
pointed path: '
I ask not any joys the years afford,
I ask not even thy averted wrath.
LET me but learn to smile
Let me face lightly any blow that
falls;
Hear bravely with my bondage all the
while
And hug my freedom within prison
walls.
THUS when the end draws near
With lifted head let me the potion
quaff, r S '
And so as ono who nevcr'lcarned to fear
Pass on to meet thy Judgment with
laugh. ' ' ' '

And, then, lots of people get down
right mad If you don't talk about them.
The way some women talk is enough
to make a married man feel bald
headed. v
There are pcoplo who nre'ensy to
catch, but they make up for it by be
ing hard to lose.
THE .ENGLISHMAN'S SOLILOQUY.
The world is such a bubble, don't you
know
Full of trial and of trouble, don't you
know,
You come into the world and cry,
You grow older, and you sigh,
Older still and 'then you die,' don't
you 'know.
And it's all a horrid mix, don't you
know,
Business, love and politics, don't you
know;
Fashions, follies, 'cliques' and sets,
Clubs, parties, sighs and frets,
Struggles, sighs and cigarettes, don't
you know.
Business, ah! that's trade, don't you
' know.
Something lost or something made,
don't you know;
You trouble and you mope
And hang your highest hope
On perhaps the price of soap, don't
you know.
Love, ah! yes, you meet a girl,
don't you knoy,
And get In such a whirl, don't you
know,
Get down upon the floor
And adore and implore
And it's all a horrid bore, don't you
know.
Politics, oh! that's a lark, don't you
know,
Just a nightmare in the dark, don't
you know;
You perspire all day and night
And after all the fight
Then perhaps the wrong man's right,
don't you know.
Fashion, Ah! that's dress, don't you
know,
And the cause of much distress, don't
you know,
To determine what to wear
When to go and whero
And how to part your hair, don't you
know.
And there's really nothing In it, don't
you know,
For you live but just a minute, don't
you know,
And when you've eaten, read and
felt,
Heard and seen and said and smelt
Why all tho cards are dealt, don't
you know.
You've one soul and that's all, don't'
you know,
One stomach and that's small, d'oVt
you know,
You can only wear one tie,
And ono oyeglass in your eye
And one coflln when you die, don't
you know.
Don't kick unless you know how to
kick and where.
People are called fickle who are real
ly very sincere; but, then, they get
very sincere so often over so many
different things.
It is hard to show
also unnecessary.
a fool anything
The man who would rather be presi
dent than be right Btands tho better
chance.
Self praise comes easy, but, like
many easy things, Is quite valueless.
It is easy enough to be honest, but
you need to keep in constant practice
It is a toss-up between tho man who
thinks ho can sing and the man who
sings he can think.
The freckled girl reflects that other
women may think they have beauty
troubles, -but,
A Salaried Bluff.
Oh, what a large, (Imposing cinch
To be the weather man.
Who tries to lay tho future bare
And does the best ho cant
And, though he makes a few mistakes
Most every day or two.
His Job Is not In Jeopardy
If guesses don't come true.
He peeltf'hls ancient weather eye,
And with a careful glance -At
signs and tokens in the sky
lie writes and takes a chance.
Some days are wet and some are dry
They are not all one style,
And bo he can but get it right
Most every little while.
It does not hurt his feelings, though
The weather may be dry.
When he has promised that a flood
Shall drop down from the sky
Or. though around the 2ero mark
The temperature may play,
When ho has promised we shall have
The very warmest day.
For all he has to do Is make
A venture and look wise. '
No matter If he draws a blank
Or carries oft a prize.
His salary goes on the same
As though he were hot stuff,
Ills capital and stock in trade
A fine, Impressive bluff.

when it declares that one railroad,
not Ilarrlman's, is so near to mate
rialization, that tho Chamber will
shortly be called on to help in a
purely rational way. The people of
Marshfleld cannot stop now. The fu
ture never looked better or required
more constant attention. To close,
tho Chambor would bo a disaster.
To continue its good work is a ne
cessity and without detracting from
tho great work which each citizen
has done Secretary Lyons Is entitled
to tho full credit of having closed
an unusually brilliant year, in this
most important and indispensible
department. His work should be
continued. It Is only just begun.
