"A minimum of 58 men is requir ed for organization of coast artillery as a branch of the National Guard service found that such a foice could be readily mustered at Mash field, Ore., if necessary, one platoon might be organized and stationed at North Bend, a short distance from Marshfield and on the bay. Ther.e does not seem to be any build ing at either of these points suit able for an armory at this time, but assuranco was given that an armory would be built by local money, if necesbarj . and rented to the state at a small cost. Inasmuch as the gov ernment supplies in the neighbor hood of 6000 worth of stores and equipment to each company, It is necessary that a substantial building be provided for the care of this property. "The ono objection that Coos Bay is a considerable distance from actual fortifications at this time does not seem to be an important one. Cost of transportation to the Colum bia River forts Is compmatlvely small. For the time being, or until such time as Coos Bay becomes equipped with batteries, tho field of service for a Coos Bay artillery com pany would necessarily be at the mouth of the Columbia. The men would bo taken there each summer for practical Instruction. For the proper training of the company at Its home station theie would be no dif ficulty in having non-commissioned officers nsslgned from Fort Stevens or Fort Columbia. All In all, tho proposition of organizing on Coos Bay looks most favorable and I shall so report." General FInzer spent about ten days In the Coos Bay district, during which time he visited the entrance to the harbor and looked over tho artillery' work. ADVERTISED LIST.
