Members of the crew of the Osprey
the election appears to have cleared
the commercial atmosphere and
business In all lines, they tell me, is
picking up in wonderful way. A
duplication of the prosperity of a
year or so ago is apparently expected
by all and everybody appears to be
striving to do their share In bring it
back.
"I noticed that near Drain, the
Southern Pacific has a force of men
changing the public highway so that
it will not encroach on the right of
way selected by the company for the
T)raln-Coos Bay line. When the
right of way for the Drain-Coos Bay
line was obtained, the company used
part of the public highway at sever
al points and the understanding was
that the railroad would construct a
new highway at these places. It is
now doing this, showing that it is
evidently determined to retain the
right of way for the proposed line.
"At Spokane, report Is current In
railroad circles that the Northwest
ern, a Vanderbllt line, Is about to
take over the Northern Pacific. It
was reported a while back that Har
rlman had obtained control of the
Northwestern but this proved un
founded. Considerable credence is
given to the latest report about the
Northwestern and Northern Pacific
as the two lines would work well to
gether. However, It would mean
that the Northwestern would use the
northern route to get to the coast."

In a stupor part of the time. He has
been troubled for years with kidney
disease. The Osprey hade a quick
trip down and back, having left here

Simpson Lumber Company's Schoon

of Ten Mile Creek.
The Novelty, the lumber schooner
of the Simpson Lumber Company,
which was driven ashore and wreck
ed near the mouth of Ten Mile
Creek about a year ago, is being
burned. The wrecked vessel has
been lying on the sand and whether
someone set fire to the hull to obtain
the bolts and Iron work, etc., or
whether It was started by tramps Is
not known. Most of the removable
parts were taken from the hull soon
after the wreck.

RIG CATCHES MADE.
Fine Run of Salmon On tho Coqullle
the Last Few Weeks.
COQUILLE, Ore., Nov. 12. The
sllversldo season for 1908, which
closes November 20, was a success
ful one and the fishermen and can
neries are rejoicing over the large
catch. The season opened with only
a small run, and it was feared that
tho pack would be smaller than last
season, though for the past six
"weeks tho river has been teeming
with fish and the canneries were
swamped for a time, but they put a
limit of fifty fish a day to each boat
which has made It possible for them
to can all of the. fish which have been
dollvered.
The late rains caused a small
freshot In tho upper river and tho
waters have remained muddy ever
since, so that tho fishermen havo
been fishing dnytimo and only a llt
tlo night fishing has been done for
tho past few weeks.
It has been many years since
there has been as largo a run of sll
versldes In tho Coqulllo and an old
timo flshorman says that it leminded
him of tho early days when the ri
ver was teeming with flhh and that In
nil probabilities there will bo a small
catch for tho noxt two years.
Judge Lou ell Speaks Plainly Regard
ing Statement No. 1.
PENDLETON', Ore., Nov. 12. Al
though the United States senate is
one ambition In life for Judge Ste
phen A. Lowell, of this city, Judge
Lowell declines to be elected through
broken pledges or disregarded laws
In the following stirring letter to the
Oregonlan of Portland:
"Pendleton, Or., Nov. 6, 1908.
"To the Editor: I notice In your
Issue of this morning is an article
discussing the senatorship, mention
of my name as among several repub
licans who may possibly receive con
sideration at the coming session of
the legislature. I do not know that
the matter requires any attention,
but I desire to go on record while
the fight Is young and to say that
while it is the ambition of my life
to represent Oregon In the federal
senate, I do not care to reach that
high station over a pathway of brok
en pledges or disregarded laws and
I want neither silence nor word nor
act of mine to lnflue'nce any member
of the legislative assembly to violate
his conscience or his word.
"I opposed Statement No. 1 in the
primary campaign with such vigor
and Intelligence as I could command,
believing It unwise, impolitic and for
eign to the form of government un
der which we live, but it is now the
law of the state, made such by the
majority vote of the people, and
every law should be obeyed.
"I speak only for myself, and do
not assume to be the conscience of
the party or the mentor of the leg
islature. Respectfully,
"S. A. LOWELL."
Coos Rher Mnn Reviews the Tele
phone Situation.
To the Editor:
I note In your Issue of today the
accident to one of the bear hounds
belonging to E. H. Harrlman, though
perhaps there is nothing strange
about this, your comment that "a
telephone message notified Col.
Grimes of the bear hounds Injuries,"
etc., is certainly mystifying as I was
unaware that the wireless telephone
had as yet reached that degree of
perfection and as we, along the river,
have labored in vain for years past
to get telephonic connection with
Marshfleld through the former com
pany but have met with no result
other than that "they would take the
matter up" which they are doubtless
still doing.
The present company have made us
similar promises but as yet we have
had no evidence of much progression
along this line until your comment
informed us that the line is In and
working. Good! any similar news
will be thankfully received by all
residents along the river.
Yours for further progress,
C. E. EDWARDS.

Each recurring attack of rheuma
tism makes the disease harder to
control, but the fact that it is not
in itself dangerous causes people to
neglect it, awaiting a change or a
settled condition of tho weather for
relief. It Is often only after the dis
ease has become so serious as to In
terfere with business that tho suf
ferer will seek more than temporary
relief. Chamberlain's Liniment is a
remedy for rheumatism which any
ono can apply. It not only gives
prompt relief from pain, but in a.
largo majority of cases it brings
about permanent results. Tho first
application will surprise and delight
you as Immediate relief is almost
