He said the road would bo built within three years. He paid great tribute to Coos Bay and its. pos sibilities and said that one reason why Coos Bay was being held back was on account of the jealousy of Portland and San Francisco.

Thoy think, howover, ns nil Intel ligent citizens do, that n public lib rary Is a necessity which will soon bo domanded by tho peoplo In gener al, but that during tho present woll nlgh universal financial stringency It can bo loft lu tho background for a brief period. Coat sweaters for children misses, nt Ladles Emporium. and Bay, surveys and purchase of right of way would havp been amply suf ficient. Was lt necessary, or is it reasonable to suppose that thousands of barrels of cement would have been bought and stored along the line of the road, If it was not the intention to use It? Is lt reasonable to suppose that "the structural steel for all brfdges between Drain and Scotsburg would have been landed at Drain, If the object was simply to fool some body; such an idea is simply ridic ulous. Upon tho other hand, there was every reason for suspending con struction, difficulties with, contractor Loss, who was unable to comply with tho terms of 'his contract, the scarcity and unusual high price of labor, and last, but not least by any means, tho antagonism met with on Coos Bay. Tho inhabitants of this portion of the universe may as well understand that if Coos Bay over expects to havo rail way connection with the outsldo world, it will never be secured by calling Presidents of railway corpora tions, arch railroad manipulators and fakors, and when a railroad Is built to Goos Bay, the officials of the road will not call a mass meeting of citi zens nnd request thorn to establish grades, indicate route to bo adopted and fix tho locntion of their bridges. Coos Bay has almo-t reached tho limit of hor growth without a rail road. Let' tho people consult their best interests, nnd when overtures are made by those who are financially able to do something for us that means our commorcinl salvation, they should at least be accorded courteous treatment.
