Address All Communications to COOS BAY DAILY TIMES MarsWleld - ,.-,- Oregon TCHE STATE TO BUILD RAIL ROADS? Of course the state will go slow about accepting Governor Chamber lain's suggestion for a state-built xoad across Central Oregon or a road built by private capital with state suaranteed bonds. No doubt it might bo possible to amend the con stitution under the initiative so that 'the state could embark on railroad xschemes, or do a thousand other things now wisely forbidden by, the constitution. It may be an advantage of course to be able to amend the jconstltutlon to suit every new notion or fancy or need of the public mind; ljut it Is likewise the chief menace and danger of the Initiative. If the constitution is in anybody's way, change it. We havo no constitution In Oregon guaranteed to last over nfght, says the Portland Oregonian. There have been state-aided and .county-aided railways in the past, lusually or uniformly with loss or dls ssster to the tax-paying public. Unl--versal experience is against it. It is ibad business and may spell bank ruptcy. If the state builds a rail--road across Central Oregon, there "will be no argument to advantage ragainst building a railroad to Coos JBay or Tillamook, to Klamath, or to -any nook or corner of the state that wants a road and would undoubtedly Jbe benefited by its construction. 'The suggestion that the legislative Tower of taxation against the rall- Toads and railroad property be used as a means of bringing Mr. Harri- anan to a proper sense of his duty -rand accountability to the people of 'Oregon is infinitely wiser and more feasible than the scheme for the state to go into the railroad business. COOPERATION IS URGED. ' What the people of Coos county -want to do is to all pull together. ""What is good for one part of the county is good for the whole county; and what is good for one town is good for cveiy town in the county. 'The thing to do is to lay aside all r petty Jealousies and work together as n united people for the develop rment of the wholo county and the sooner everyone realizes this fact, the ' sooner will the desired results be ac complished. Coos county Is the rich est part of Oregon, and then there to other counties through which a irallroad would extend, when coming Into this one that would make it a dividend paying proposition at once, ilf Mr. Hnrrlman or any other rall Toad magnato would just take tho time to investigate tho situation, tho Tallroad would bo forth coming as -.soon as they could push it through. While Coos Bay and tho Coqulllo val ley aro dovoloping rapidly, yet they cannot reach tho zenith of their pos rslblllties until the railroad is com pleted through this section. Bandon IRutorder. .'A POINTER FOR FRUIT GROWERS Tho owner of a chorry, and pear orchard in one of tho fruit sections of Washington lias posted notices of warning about his placo as follows: "Cherries all gone. No use to tear vvt pants climbing through tho linrbed-wiro fonco until tho pears aro Tlpo." On being Interviewed a3 to uvhy ho chose that way Instead of ap pealing to tho usual methods used fin such enses, the orchardlst replied: "Well, I romember that when I was 5 a 'boy I stole chonlcs and wouldn't have liked for any one to have had me arrested. I never destroyed any thing, nnd now I don't caio so much for tho cherries as I do for having tho treos broken down." SEE MR. HILL. Tho Governor told tho Coos Bay peoplo that he could glvo thorn no ronson to hopo that Hnrrlman will build them n ratlrond. Now ho might go and hold a conforonco with Hill, nnd sco what encouragement can bo had from that souice. Port .land Telegram. THE DAILY COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD, With the Toast and Tea GOOD EVENING. H "It is not what stays in our H memories, but what has passed H X into our characters that Is the M J possession of our lives." X .PHILLIPS BROOKS. The Old Record Broken. How dear to this heart is the phono graph's singing! What fond recollections my memo ry stir! Sweet Jane does the winding and turns on the music While I sit and tell her the tunes I prefer. But, oh, how it tears my nerve sys p tem to tatters, , Oh, how it deranges my comfort and bliss, When Jane idly slips on an old broken record Which reels off a song that sounds something like this: "The old oaka - ka bucka -bucka-bucka- , Ir-r-r-r-r-r-r bou-wow-wow (crick ticket) " , " (crick, crick, crick ooooo) Tha hunk-k-k (b r) w-e-lel." My stock of canned music I hall as a treasure; For often when callers appear on the scene And topics are scarce, It Is truly a pleasure To bring out our dear little talking machine. The time passes quickly and every one's iiappy; The phonograph pleases till Jane, so remiss, Forgets about winding the works of the treasure, Which drawls out a tune that goes something like this: "Be eee 1-1-i-It eeeeee ver s o Ha-ha hum b-b-b-b-bl e T h e rererere s n o PI pi pi place 1 I k e h o Exchange. Some Coos Bay people are always asking advice but never taking it. A man thinks doesn't know. lots of things he Do a hundred things right and you can spoil them all by doing one thing wrong. Experience will teach some Coos Bay men in one lesson what others will he years in learning. Some Coos 'Bay men are like lit tle ' boys they like to have a great big rag tied around a little sore. If there is going to bo money lost the best friend you have in the world would rather see you lose it than to lose it himself. If you should be kidnapped how much do you suppose your best friend would give to get you back?

If a man Is honest enough to admit the truth about himself, that should be enough without asking him to tell it.

Ever use the library? Isn't it a fact that you read wherever you happen to be? A woman never admires a man as much after he has made a confidant of her and told her of his love for another woman. Mary Helen, 4 years old, is very brave, and is usually perfectly will ing for her mother to leave her after she has put her to bed and has given her her favorite doll. But one night after she had been left a. short while she called loudly for her mother. "Why, Mary Helen!" her mother asked, "what is the matter with you?" "I'm tired of staying up here with nobody but God and my dolly. I want somebody with skin on," she sobbed. Boarding House Geometry. A scientific friend of mine has drawn up a boarding house geome try that strikes mo as being note worthy, said a youth with a third story "front." Some of his definitions run as fol lows: 1. All boarding houses are the same boarding houses. 2. Boarders in the same board ing house, and on the same floor, aro equal to one another in the matter of price, but not in the matter of outlook. 3. A single room is that which has no parts and no magnitude. 4. The landlady of a boarding house is a parallelogram; an oblong, angular figure which cannot be de scribed, but is equal to anything. 5. All the other rooms being taken, a single room is said to be a double room. Among postulates and proposi tions the following are worthy of consideration: 1. A pie may be produced any number of times. 2. The landlady may be reduced to her lowest terms by a series of propositions. 3. A bee-line may be drawn from one boarding house to another. 4. The clothing of a boarding house bed, although extending in definitely In both directions, will never meet. 5. Any two meals at a boarding house are together less than one square meal.
