Tho troubles of tho Larson Log ging company with tho Coos Bay Lumber and Coal Comppny over tho contract ior logging the lattcr's land is causing much grief for tho logging company's employes. Mr. Iloeck of tho company has just been to Port land trying, to adjust tho matter, but it is feared that it will havo to bo bought out in the courts. Tho com pany Ins about 2,000,000 ,eet of logs in tho water, and somo claim that tho mon's lions -on theso will pay them for their labor. It Is thought and hoped that tho follow ing statement In tho Coquille Sen tinel is overdrawn: "Arthur Bryant camo In from the Larson logging camp at Beaver Hill, Wednesdny evening, with tho Infor mation that tho camp Is perhaps hopelessly gono from a financial standpoint. Every ono of tho eighty employes will loso from $40 upwards in wages, as there is noth ing to levy upon but what is covered by Simpson's claims and mortgage. Ono workman had to make good a chock which ho had gotten for his honest toll and had it cashed by a friend, amounting to about $300, and ho loses "proximately $G00 addi tional in accumulated wages. An other workman loses $800. Thero aro omo Larson checks that havo been cashed by business men in Co quille und will perhaps never bo worth a pen's scratch. It Is too bad that so many needy tollers should bo forced to loso their hard-earned monoy," MBS. II. L.
