THE GREEN EYED MONSTER.
Coos Bay's "Oregon and .Idaho
Development League," which was or
ganised as a side-show of the late
lamented "Fair," endorses federal
appropriations for Coos Bay, Tilla
mook and the Sluslaw, but the Co
qulllo river and bar are conveniently
overlooked. Bah! Specs are not
needed to see the jealousy of Marsh
field these days. Coqullle Sentinel.
Tut! tut! Editor Dodge! You must
bo wearing your green glasses.
Marshfleld is too busy building and
boosting these days to be jealous of
any place and least of all of Coqullle.
Marshfleld and Coos Bay has naught
lut best wishes, good words and a
helping hand when needed for all
iho valley and all of Coos and south
west Oregon. What benefits one is
to the advantage of all and an injury
to one should be the concern of all.
Take off those green glasses, put on
your specs and take dpwn the Good
Book. Therein you will find some
thing about a house divided against
itself. You surely do not wish to
encourage Coos to bo a divided house.
to suggest. Why not get Mr. Butler
to come out here and scrape up an
actual acquaintance with the Oregon
cow? We have just concluded ar
rangements which designate Oregon
as one of the finest stock-producing
states In the country, possibly the
finest in the Pacific west. We have
denoted something of the kind on
former occasions. Notably during
the exposition, In 1905. The Oregon
cow competed against the country as
an Individual at that time; and there
was no second best for Oregon In the
competition, either. And this triumph
was but a repetition of a similar ono
at St. Louis the year before. We are
about to demonstrate again that we
still hold the palm In the matter of
Individual exhibits; and every Orego-
nlan cow admirer woiId be pleased
to have Mr. Butler prove f6r himself
that seeing Is believing.
But, as to the aggregate activity
of this cow, that seems to be the
chief target for Mr. Butler's scepti
cism. Ho does not believe that she
is a money-maker because' he does
not find that virtue set down In the
government reports touching such
matters. He also says that our
boasting of her productiveness and
aggregate value does not accord with
the return of the tax assessor. As
to what appears In the government
reports, Oregon can show Mr. Butler
that they are not deserving of un
wavering faith. As to the sceptical
state of mind for which the tax as
sessor is said to be responsible, that
is a matter of which it would be wise,
perhaps, for the tax assessor to take
note. Reverting to the cow herself;
If Mr. Butler will come here and be
Introduced, we have no fear for her
reputation, even though he Is admit
tedly biased as a judge. Portland

SANDUSKY, Ohio, Sept. 8. W. H.
Taft as a campaigner will be given
a second tryout today. He is, to
speak from here to Cincinnati, after
addressing the old soldiers and will
make his first political speech in the
theatre here. His speeches will be
extemporaneous. His efforts are
being watched closely by political
friends whose duty is to pass final
judgment on his future assignments
in the campaign. Most of his speeches
will be made from the rear platform

THE OREGON COW.
Living back In tho offeto east Is a
certain Mr. Butler, who attracts tho
Oregon cow. Ho maintains that that
animal is not so numerous nor such
a wealth-producer us tho enthusiastic
citizen of Orogon would have tho
world bolleve. Ho charges that In
our cow literature; wo have over
stated the facts by a fow millions;
'that wo fall to mnko a showing any
where clso; and that from sources
which he Is willing to nccept as au
thorltntlvo, ho has yet to learn thnt
tho Orogon cow, ns cows are to bo
considered Nationally, Is not a negll
GlbJo quantity.
In answer to this, ovory Orogonlan
who knows aught of tho cow In this
stato; and who has ovon an Inkling
of what she has dono to onilch tho
state may Iiml defiance In tho tooth
of Mr Butler politoly withal, but
none tho loss assured of tho right
eousness of the cause espoused. In
fact, this sooms to be tho disposition;
and fiom the way It has boon mndo

Is a man worthy to bo convinced of
the error of his opinion.
