THE DAILY COOS BAY TIMES, MARSHFIELD. OREGON. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1908. 1M K V REAL ESTATE'S NEWEL D9MD0 (Continued from page 3.) -world of pluck and energy to say aiothlng of a big load of money to anake a city there. With the harbor tout of mind, one might wonder at even a lunatic stopping on that is land for a day, but there is the secret. They have a magnificent har bor. Right off the wharf, which does not extend more than seventy or eighty feet from shore, the water is Hfty-five feet deep and a great por--tlon of the harbor will measure more -than one hundred feet in depth. It js from one to two miles wide anJ several miles long and completely landlocked. In the four weeks I was there I did not see its waters rough enough to make it unsafe for the frailest rowboat. The Grand Trunk people claim they will have their road completed In 1911, but 'others say It will not be done before 1913. The unders tanding now is that Prince Rupert lots will be ready for sale May 1, 1909. The only chance I see to make a little money is to be on the ground sit the opening, select something i;ood and make a quick turn in the boom that is very apt to follow for a short time. Then there will be a long dull spell until the road is com--pleted and then another boom. The values must naturally be only specu lative until the city is built and there TVill be no use for a city until the -road is finished. The eyes of specula tors the world over are on Prince Itupert and I would not be surprised to hear of some wild doings next spring. They tell me that for wild booms the crazy "canucks" "have got rjs beat a mile. It is generally Re lieved that the property will be dis 7osed of by auction and if it is sold that way, I will not be surprised to see some very fancy prices paid. This belief is based upon the state ments of Homo people as to what they thought certain property was worth. If such people back their judgment with money at the opening there will bo little chance for an advance in property values for several years fol lowing the first sale. "Be upon the ground and select your property personally and do not "buy from any company or agent. Of course, this advice applies In most cases, but it is particularly applicable to Prince Rupert. There will be soon lots there which will not be -worth ten dollars In ten thousand rycars. "My opinion as to the first boom -at tho opening, the slump and depres sion to follow and then the revival at Vh& complctjpn of the railroad Is con curred In iy nearly all persons who prrsscd themselves freely to me. ' "As for mo, I am just a little sifraid to tackle tho proposition on sthe first boom. If I did not get out quickly I would have to carry my load four or live years and I would rather have tho other "sucker" do that. One would play a safer game by waiting and buying six months be foro the road is completed. "While In the north, I stood one day on a bridge over -a crek of clear -witer and watched a run of salmon. I nover snw anything like it. There wore thousands of them, all of one -.size, or nenrly so, and weighing about twenty pounds each. They filled the stream and wero so crowded that -they had not sufficient room for free action. I could have taken a pitch fork and loaded a wagon In a fow .minutes.

Ed Hunter was painfully but not seriously pinched by loga at Hester's camp last Friday. . He was brought to the hotel in this place. There are always pathetic matters that are called Into court, and the term Just passed was not lacking in that line. One of Coos County's most respected citizens was dragged into court for the first time in his life by jhis grandspn. We learn however that the young man got worsted to the tune of ?200 costs, which may be a valuable lesson to him. Fred Johnson and Glenn Barker killed a brace of bruins on the lat ter's place near Falrvlew this week. One was slain Tuesday evening, and it was a monster specimen of the black bear family who had all but killed a sheep a short time before. Orvil Dodge, the delegate selected by the council and mayor of this city to attend the Trans-Mississippi Con gress which convenes at San Fran cisco nest Tuesday, expects to leave therefor either loday or tomorrow, via Roseburg. Captain Ott Willard of the speedy Wolverine, moved his family back from Bandon Tuesday, and they are again quartered on the place just south of Coqullle. Vernon Davenport, formerly of this valley, a son of J. A. Davenport and wife, Is now clerking in a store at Slsson, California. He left this section early last spring. Allen Collier and Jas. Thompson are planning to leave for Douglas county Sunday morning in quest of China pheasants and other game. They may be' gone three weeks. Pioneer Walter Drane came in from his mining claim on Bolivar Mountain Saturday evening, traveling on three legs. The old gentleman was so unfortunate as to sprain his ankle, and had to give up develop ment work and come home. Mike Summerlin was down from tho ranch on the North Fork early in the week, and reports that he Is still waging war on the many panth ers, wildcats and other varmints of his section of the country. Zenla C. Strang has added to his place on tho North Fork by buying a piece of land off the well known Woods ranch adjoining. Zeina's place up there is leased to his brother-in-law, Robert Wagner. John Galardl surrendered his lease to the T. P. Hanloy place, six miles down the river, on Sept. 15, selling his portion of the stock" to Mr. Han ley who is again In charge. John is undecided what he will engage In next, but will continue to live on the dairy until spring. An old-tlmo Coqullllan in the per son of Ward Felter arrived in town from Portland last Monday, and took the beat the same afternoon for Ban don to visit his brother, John T. Felter. Eighteen years have passed slnco the gentleman last saw Co qtiille, and of course he sees many changes. IIo now lives in Portland nnd is engaged In tho mining busi ness. Rev. E.
