Ofllclnl Paper of Coos County.
CITY BOND ISSUE.
THERE SEEMS TO BE some
doubt and dubiousness about
the relief that will be afforded
the municipality of Marshfleld by
the bond issue proposed by the city
council. The chief value and one
worthy object justifying a bond is
sue would be to permit a continua
tion of the public Improvements of
the city. According to the views ad
vanced at the council meeting at
which the bond Issue was authorized
the councllmen seemed to think that
the Eddy bonding act which permits
the issuance of ten years bonds in
any given filstrict wo'nld be sufilclent
for these improvements.
Surface indications support these
views but experience has proven that
circumstances alter cases in financial
circles as well as elsewhere. The
Times understands that City Recor
der Butler has $10,000 of these
bonds on hand at present which he
is unable to dispose of. There is no
question as to the validity of the
bonds but it is merely a result of
conditions.
Large bond Investors do not care
to place their money In bonds that
mature so rapidly as those provided
for by the Eddy bonding act and
local banks and investors can evi
dently realize a larger Interest than
tje six per cent which these bonds
pay. Local contractors require mon
ey to operate and cannot accept ani
carry these bonds in payment for
improvements made. These condi
tions make the bonds a drug on the
HEN ANDREW CARNEGIE-
endowed the Hero Fund the
country had a good deal of
fun with him. A thousand imprac
tiblllties were suggested, prearrang
ed rescues, 'solicitations for medals
and money warranted to drive the
trustees Into the madhouse and the
ultimate disgust of the founder with
tho littleness of human nature.
Yet these forecasts have proved
false. The Hero Fund has turned
out to be one of the most worthy
philanthropies conceived in this
country. Perhaps the trustees have
,been worried by "fake" heroes, per-
jhaps bored with advice, but one
hears nothing about it. So if there
is anything of the sort it .can't be
very much of an annoyance. The
money has been distributed with fine
discrimination and none who wears
the medal has cause to be ashamed
of it, or to think little of the pos
session. Mr. Carnegie was wiser
than his countrymen thought and he
knew humanity better than they.
A similar endowment has been
made by the ironmaster to France,
one-fifth the size of the American
fund. The French journalists will
doubtless crack many jokes about It,
but they will come to respect it and
admire it and regret their scoffing.

THE BEST STORY OF THE DAY
A newly elected senator from tho
west was on his way to Washington.
He was thinking great things, when
the conductor came into the car
with his characteristic, "Have your
tickets ready," The senator began
to fumble In one pocket, then an
other. When the conductor came to
him he was still looking for the tic
ket.
"Did you have it when you got
on.'" in quired the conductor some
what Impatiently.
"Of course I did. This isn't my
first trip."
"Then you couldn't have lost it."
"Couldn't have lost it?" replied
the irate politician. "H 1, I lost
a bass drum once." ,
A hostess who is a thoroughbred
never apologizes for the look3 of
her house, or for anything she has
on the table.
Every, time you tell a bad story on
your neighbors, It's a pity some one
doesn't say to you: "Well, you
have no room to talk."
We fear all this talk in favor of
a safe and sane Fourth of July will
have as. little effect on the average
small boy as the plea for tariff revi

Aldrich.

same time, the more active member
from Texas has1 both delivered a
harangue in favor of tho ancient
free trade cause and offered a de
fense of his southern' cdlleagues' de
sertion. The stratagems of Aldrich
were expected, but none thought
they would succeed so well. This,
of course, was because the Demo
crats were expected to stand by their
platform. The "Iowa Idea." has been
