WE RESPECTFULLY suggest consideration of the plan of furnishing forth an annual bonus, say of $5,000, as Coos Bay's ' bid for progress, and contribution to her own upbuilding, In the best way that shall present Itself, year by year. This will beat frittering away i similar amounts In pleasure-stunts and advertising schemes and yield Immensely of profits yet unknown here. Such a sum held out each year as the regular sign and signal for new business, new men, and new blood In the community, will be worth 1,000 per cent to us In a few years. Make the sum of our bonus to stand for at least 10 per cent of the invest ment we Invite, and then go for eve rything In the manufacturing line that can be brought, and wrought, here. Give it, annually, fn sites, or '' cash, or other practical ways, to ' It Is. a sign of old age when the bring in new industries and more ploasantest thing about a picnic is a people, and once It Is known that rain to prevent it. wo are committed to such a policy of . common-sense and commercial snap, I There are too many Coos Bay wo will never lack the best of ap- people who look upon their friends plications for the use of the ad- solely as a soft place to land, vantage; Such a scheme would soon i make the city famous as a live and Harrlmnn can now see the mis active center, and the doing of It take he made In devoting all his will work no hardship we are not time to getting rich Instead of fat. already familiar with; only it would p, , ", ' throw back to our counters and if everybody Is now satisfied that wage-envelopes the splendid access bee sttngs will cure rheumatism, the of business and profit so much de- sired. The whole matter could be nego- tinted through our own banks, one after tho other, under the direction of the Chamber of Commerce; and the first success would ensure the others. If we could not get any thing in, we could send something out, a lumber laden ship, or a boat load of dairy-products, or some other strong advertising medium of the county and section; anything to compel resognltlon of Coos Bay as one of tho ports and dopots of the raclflc world and the Coqulllo Val ley as rich In resources of many kinds. Give the matter thought and let It simmer until Its real advan tage becomes apparent, as a trade and business policy, nnd thou go at It. Not ono dollar of It will ever be regretted or lost; and every dollar of profit will bolong to the place, as "well as tho redundancy In tralllu and trade and wide advertising. COOS DAY'S FUTURE. I Tho entorprlslng citizens of Coos Day do not propose to lose any of tho ndvnntago already gained in the way of harbor Improvement, and tho Port Commission at Murshlleld has guaranteed $50,000 for the maln- tenanco or tno government dredge Oregon, which Is now at work In tho harbor. There has been a inurked Improvement In tno channel over Coos Bay bar since work was begun, nnd tho results achieved hnvo been of a nnturo that fully warrants tlnuntlon of the efforts of tho people Railroad connection may bo postpon ed for a short tlmo, but no region having ns good an entranco from tho sea and so many varied rosourcos hack of it can fail to prosper and In tlmo railroads will enter tho Coos Bay country because they can no longer afford to remain away from IL Portland Oregonlau. liET THE PEOPLE KNOW what you want through tho medium of THE TIMES WANT AD. and you will obtain what you deslro In a eliort space of tlmo. very I With the Toast and Tea COOD KVKXI.VG. Why not rejoice more? Count up your golden mercies; count up your opportunities to do good; count up your "exceeding great and prccioiu promises." Selected. The Cause of the Straggle. When I've enough to eat and wear Why should I strive for more? i yj, you no!e ,y neighbor there Just pushing by my door. He owns a motor car, while I On foot must travel still; I fain would have as much as ho, And some day soon I will. Today I own a motor car; What further do I need? My neighbor passed me but this morn In one of greater speed. He laughed at me as he flew by, Aml j-n not re3t untn gt as Ills, And some day soon I will. My car Is now as fast as his, But I'm not satisfied; "Is fortune's triple, so they say, While mine's not multiplied, I'll treble mine before I quit, Although the pace may kill, I want as much or more than he, And get it soon I will. And thus the source of discontent, The thought that makes us sore; We can't enjoy the things we have If neighbors but have more. Though health may fade and strength depart. And we grow short of breath, To be as rich as some one else, We struggle on till death. Selected. A Coos Baj man is so contrary that cheese physics him. doctors might try the same remedy tor hives. If grandchildren annoy a grani- mother, she Is careful not to let any one know it. A grandfather isn't so particular. The Deseret News, which says, coi- lege bred is half a loaf" should in common fairness admit that not all loafers aro college bred. A publisher announces that "Tho Danger Murk" Is to appear In the fall. After that, ho hopes, tho dollar mark will bo more In evidence. A writer on etiquette enters objec tion to tho use of tho world "Hello" nt tho telephone. Perhaps "Ah, there" would suit him better. That Chicago man who rocontly nto a Panama hat wasn't economiz ing very much, when you remember tho cost of genulno Panama hats. A Kansas man stopped In the road to pick up a horse shoo nnd was run over by an automobile. Now ho probably has ono pet superstition less. Tho Wrights are having almost as much trouble with tholr flying ma- ehno ns BOIno Coos nj. mon haVo 'wlth U0,r moto,. boiUs am, aut0. ,nouijPg "Elijah" Snuford Insists that tho ond of tho world will some on tho con-'morning of Soptembor 1.5. Now, If we can only put off our creditors till tho 10th! A Kansts man shot nt his wife be cnuso "sho had too much religion," but ho will find tho law paying just as little attention to that excuse as to tho ono that ho had too much ammunition. A Mount Cnnnol, 111., woman be- gan Ufo as a Bird, and In hor teons sho married a Martin. After his denth sho hecamo n Crow, and after his demise sho chose a Robin, Rob- tbed of her mato once more, sho so- lected a Buzzard. The end Is not yet, but she can no longer be re garded as a chicken. The manufacturer of beauty lo tions naturally regards every wo man's face as part of his fortune. From the way the housefly buzzes around, it has not yet taken that de claration of war very seriously. A New Orleans man killed a bill collector the other day, and now he will have a lawyer or two running up another big bill for him. The Nevada man who cut his throat because he was getting too fat probably never thought of cut ting out a few meals dally. This denaturing process appears to be reaching the limit. Xow some one in Kentucky claims to hav found a kickless mule. "If the baby is cross, play the piano," says the editor of a mothers' journal. But but perhaps the neighbors would prefer to hear the baby. The marriage of Mr. Gunn rnd Miss Hunt In Washington the other day was not exactly one of those quiet affairs we occasionally read about. t By the time the doctors get through with him, Mr. Harrlman may be rid of that pain in his back, but he will feel an occasional twinge In his leg. Wo fear the New Yorker who fell In a dead faint when Informed that he was the father of triplets Is In the habit of taking his little troubles too seriously. The Washington man who has suc ceeded In producing a crowless roost er deserves honorary membership In the society for the suppression of useless noises. An eastern editor writes at some length to prove ,that there Is danger In fiction. To discover that there is also danger in truth, it is only neces sary to call some man a liar. "Perhaps I shall raise onions and potatoes on my Virginia farm," says Mrs. Howard Gould. Go to it, Katherlne! That would be an Im mense Improvement over what you ,lmve been ra,slns ln,New York-. "Don't be afraid of death," says the Lincoln Journal. "It is really the best friend we have on earth." Yes, but what good on earth can that friend do us after we are unJer It? During a convulsion a pntlent In a Now York hospital coughed up a gold cuff button and a watch chain. But he will have to cough up more than that before the doctors aro through with him. An exchange comments on the fact that twice as many men as women die suddenly. Nothing surprising about that, for the only thing a nor mal woman will over do suddenly Is to change her mind. Senator Tillman says ho trembles for tho future of the nation. Draco up, senator! It Is not always easy to explain that shaky look to suspi cious persons who have experienced the morning after feeling. An eastern exchange brings tho nows thnt tho authoress of a book entitled, "There Is No Death," has married a prominent undertaker. Now there will have to be an occa sional death If her husband Is to mnke a living. A Northern Colorado paper con tained the following nd one day Inst week: "Wanted A young man to tnko care of a pair of mules of a Christian disposition." Where In tho world did that man get those mules? A man in Chicago has been heavily lined for taking another man's um brella. The much-tnlked-of millen nium may not bo so far off after all. "Tho perils of Ice water," says a New York physician, "aro greater than the perils of alcohol." Now if tho porlls of buttermilk are greater than the perils of Ice water wo can see our finish.
