PORT OF COOS RAY.
That was an important and highly
commendable act of the Chamber of
Commerce the other evening to sug
gest some definite action toward the
formal establishment of the Port of
Coos Bay. Without the necessity of
spending a great sum of money the
setting up of the Port of Coos Bay,
ly Its .own people will be a long step
toward the accomplishment of many
another good and expedient thing
for this city and section. It Is a, mere
matter of popular authority that Is
wanted to make this a fixed and use
ful adjunct to our commercial devel
opment; a matter of progressive vot
ing and subsequent careful over-'
f -sight.
As n nnrt. In the lecal sense of the
I term, Coos Bay will be in a position
s to do much more for herself than at
present, and, we can advertise the
rliarbor with direct and definite pur
pose and to ends amply provided for.
s'As It Is, our waters are but an un-
Tcgulated haven, a marine station
safe, commodious, accessible, but ut
terly unadaptcd to the huge scope of
usefulness that might be wrought,
not for ourselves entirely, but for
ho whole Coqullle valley and later
when the railway comes for the great
-section cast of the mountains.
A port commission may be made
tho clearing agency for the widening
nd deepening of the harbor and all
ther great and small accessories in
ho way of permanent Improvement
pand commercial expansion; and, ns a
roasls for such development, wo know
Sot nothing to compare with this busl-
jiioss-llko and appropriate action
on i
itho part of Coos Bay, who of all peo-.
lo on the earth are entitled to what
enflts npp Tfaln to an organic port.
iVo urgo It In tho best of faith, for
Alio common good, by way of its es-
ontlallty, and for tho security it
svill ndd to our future demands, ac-
lons and interests, as they unfold
h,vlth tho Immense future of tho
fiNorthwest.
Wo do not havo to Invest much to
nit ourselves In the Initial attltudo;
,vo may tnko our tlmo at working
nut tho details of establishment and
Equipment.

The Quarrel of Friends.
From "Chrlstabel."
Alas! they had been friends In youth;
But whispering tongues can poison
truth;
And constancy lives In realms above;
And life is thorny; and youth is
valn;
And to be wroth with one we love.
Doth work like madness in the
brain.
And thus It chanced, as I divine,
With Roland and Sir Leoline!
Each spoke words of high disdain
And insult to his heart's best
brother;
They parted ne'er to meet again!
But never neither found another
To free the hollow heart from pain
ing. They stood aloof, the scars remain
ins, Like cliffs which had been rent
asunder;
A dreary sea now flows between,
But neither heat, nor frost, nor
thunder
Shall wholly do away, I ween,
The marks. of that which once hath
been.
S. T. COLERIDGE.
A really good drygoods man makes
every woman who calls at his store
feel that he finds a certain something
about her to admire.
It is said that a young married
couple of Marshfield will soon be
able to afford a carriage, but it will
be a baby one.
'TIs a funny proposition,
But the truth, without a doubt
When a fellow's "on hi3 tippers,"
He's alzo "down and out."
When'a man tells his sweetheart
that ahe is the nicest girl In town, he
has to tell her, when ho meets her
the next day, that she Is the nicest
girl In the world, or she will say his
love Is growing cold.
Every woman who hears of a
baby's death believes that If they had
sent for her, she would have thought
of something that would have saved
It.
A boy at school learns to read
about three weeks. After that,
never learns a thing. Take a
in
ho
boy
out of school after he learns to read,
and he will know about as much as a
man as the boy who graduated at a
college. ,
A certain Coos Bay girl's corres
pondence must be a great cross to
her. She is worrying that "some-
thlntr is tho matter" when she doesn't
hoar from hor friends, and worrying
because she has letters to answer
when she does.
You don't know what you can really
do,
'Til necessity kicks you black and
blue
'Til you havo to swim or you havo to
sink,
Then you'll plod and plan and
scheme and think,
And fight as you never fought be
fore. It is minted of J. E. Oron and not
having heard any official denlnl It Is
probably true. It seems that ono
ovoning sometime since tho youthful
ruler of tho Oron homo gavo evi
dence of somo slight distress. Tho
baby was only slightly ailing and re
membering tho dnys of his youth, J.
E. gavo tho youngster a dose of cas
tor oil with very bcneflclnl results.
Later, ho was tolling the story to
somo friends ns ovldenco of his
sagacity, when ono of thorn, a young
matron remarked, "But castor oil Is
such an old fashioned remedy."
"Yes," J..E. replied, "and babies
nro old fashioned tHlngs,"

Cqos County School Directors
Pass Resolutions Opposing
Proposed Plan.
(Special to The Times.)
MYRTLE POINT, Ore., Sept. 2 2.
The recent convention of the dis
trict school directors of Coos county
here went on record as unalterably
opposed to the proposed plan of fur
nishing free text books to students
of the public schools. They also de
clared In favor of having the school
funds handled by the county treas
urer to be paid out on warrants
from the secretaries of the vafious
districts instead of having the clerks
act as treasurers as they do at pres
ent. Resolutions to this end were pas
sed and copies have been forwarded
to the members of the state legisla
ture from this district by Inez W.
Bunch who acted as secretary of the
directors convention. The resolutions
were as follows:
"Inasmuch as school clerks are
compelled to assume large financial
responsibility In the care of the
school money, and Inasmuch as the
county treasurer Is th2 proper cus
todian of public funds, be If
"Resolved, That it is the sense of
this convention that our laws be so
amended as to keep all school mon
ey in the hands of the county treas
urer to be paid out on warrants
drawn by the clerk of the school
board, In accordance with law.
"Resolved, That it is the sense of
this convention that it will not" be
to the best Interests of the schools
of Oregon to have free text-books
and the representatives to the legis
lature from this county are request
ed to not support any measure look
ing to the adoption of such a meas
ure." l'EXDLETOX IS AROUSED.
Incensed at Giving of Franchise
to
Paper Railway Company.
PENDLETON, Ore., Sept. 24.
The franchise recently granted by
the City Council to the Oregon &
Washington Electric Company, under
the supposition that an interurban
lino was to be constructed between
Walla Walla and this city, has
aroused a storm of protest from a
large number "of citizens and property-owners.
Meetings of protest have already
been held and It was stated by the
leaders today that 'the referendum
would be Invoked upon the measure
and the franchise annulled.
It is alleged that the Council was
clearly duped into giving away a val
uable franchise which would leave
the city helpless In the hands of the
holders of the franchise, who are not
bound to give anything definite in re
turn. It is also alleged that the
Walla Walla men who secured th.?
franchise havo no intention of build
ing the road and have not secured
the amount of right-of-way claimed

County Sheriff After Alleged
Boot-Legger.
WEDDERBURN, Ore., Sept. 22.
Sheriff Tyler is away on business in
Coos county, presumably to assure
tho appearance of a Coos county
man at the next term of Gold Beach
court. It Is common gossip that a
certain Coos county citizen was in
dicted for dispensing and selling in
toxicants to Curry county's thirsty
citizens. Somebody, we don't re
member who, but it makes no matter
anyway, suggested to tho Radium
that tho powers will not countenance
any butlnskl business and believe In
protecting home industries.
To tho show going people I wish
to say that I guarantee my shows
