V December 31, 190S. Editor T'meB: Your odltorlal or tho 30th lust., on the subject of railroads nn Coos fc? llmr vrnu UflfV In hiinot I tr Itnf I .una p!4dQutj,vrlttojn on the theory that ? "(food Hay people" are-Stin looking, 41n ho'po, to Mr. Harriman to build m railroad connecting this locality 'i fwlth tho outsldo world. I think you wo mistaken nbout that. Most of fthe peoplo of Coos Hay havo cor "srpQtBd tho hubit of waiting for tho "vtlottor that noror camo," signed by E.,11. II. and announcing tho purpose fqf tho magnate- to hitch Coos Day to )te star. It Is of no Inmortance w.hnt Harriman does and only a few HYfiry old timers aro saves to tho lmb.lt of Ilurrlman dofondency. Ro far as the Drain road Is concornod, myB only Intomlod to be a foodor to Iffiilnml anyway and will be prao- My no rollof to tho 120,000 peo- ho Hvo In Douglas, Coos, Cur- Meson, and Josephine counties. Coos Hay warti and m havo, In order to tako her placo as a great city, is a railroad due east to Hosoburg. Lot Mr. Harriman build his road and oncourago him to do It, If ho needs encouragement. Coos Day wants all tho roads she can get. Dut she must havo that road to tho east. Sho must bo ablo to got her Importations as well as her natural resources to Roseburg so that tho peoplo In nil tho coun ties montloned may have tho ad vantage of cheap freight rates. It Is a fact that It costs practically ten times as much to get goods ovor tho Southern Pacific to Roseburg from Portland than by water from Port land to Coos Bay. Yet tho water routo Is ono hundred miles longer. You can onally see what that means. Goods brought by water from Port land or San Francisco to Coos nay can bo shipped to Hosoburg ovor n railroad" between tho two Southern Orogon cities, so ciieapjv that tho pooplo of tho ontlre southwestern part of tho stnto will realize an economic revolution In their favor. Such a road would pay from tho out sot. Tho wrltor knows sovornl railroads which havo boon constructed through mountain districts a dlstanco twice ns great as between Hosoburg and Com Hay. Thoy woro built to sorvo n population ono third ns great as roslda in Southwestern Orogon. Thoy aro profitable. It is my opinion that tho G.000 pooplo In Hosoburg and 8,000 pooplo on Coos Hoy should tako stops to build this road whether Mr Hurrlmau bJllds or not. Tho whole Willamette valley is interest ed In such a connection between Coos Bay and Roseburg. Did you ever think what it will do for the Wllla motto valley? It would give a com peting market for, this Garden of Eden. It would make Oregon's ca pital city, Salem an important "and populous capital instead of a rural annex to Portland. It would ma'ko Eugene an Important city. Hut It would mako Coos Bay a great sea port and Roseburg a very Important manufacturing nnd distributing in terior city. Let's agree not to talk Harriman anymore. We have talked and talk ed, but ho makes no move. Tho only times wo hear about great railroad building by tho Southern Pacific is when somo Valo convention adjourns and then somo "dope" Is fixed up In Chicago and published In Mr. Har rlman's Oregonlan for tho purpose of putting Oregon to sleep again. Let's quit looking to Harriman. We don't opposo him. Wo havo nothing against him, but while wo want his road, wo want tho road to Roseburg forty times moro than wo want his. So, hereafter, when somebody talks about a road from Drain, let's Ignoro tho "brick" and talk the road to Roseburg. What's tho matter with Roseburg and Coos Bay, anyhow? Is it incompatibility? When one wants this road why don't tho other want It, and why don't both try and want it at tho same time and want It hard enough to get It. Tho tlmo Is ripe.
