Peter Loggie, Dr. Mingus and
J. W. Bennett Take Up
Bar Improvement.
HAVE WRITTEN
The committee named at the re
cent meeting of the commercial
bodies to the Bay to try and llSve
the United States Engineers chwfge
their recommendation fpp Improving
4he Coos Bay bar from a bar dredge
to tho jetty proposition, have writ
ten Major Mclndoe concerning it.
Their letter was forwarded Novem
ber 2 but as yet they have not re
ceived any answer to it, probably
owing to Major Mclndoe being still
confined by Illness. The committee
was composed of Peter Loggie, Dr.
E. Mingus and J. W. Bennett. Their
letter to Major Mclndoe follows:
"An emergency has arisen by
which at a meeting of the Marshfield
Chamber of Commeice, the under
signed were appointed a committee
to bring the matter to your atten
tion. And by reason thereof, we re
spectfully submit that the emergen
cy referred to has occurred at the
entrance of the bay, by reason of a
portion of the north Jetty being sub
merged or removed by the winter
stornjs so that the sand from tho
shore north of the jetty was washed
-through the broken places, creating
.shoals, which unless attended to,
Avlll seriously Interfere with the
navigation of the entrance to the
harbor. -
f- "The Committee has discussed the
hiat.er with the captains of the
steamers Breakwater, Plant, Nann
Smith, Czarina, and A'llance, who
are navigating the entranco continu
ally, and in addition, have- talked
tho matter with Captain McGee of
the tug Columbia and also discussed
the matter with parties who have
been Interested In the navigation of
tho harbor for many years; and we
respectfully submit that wo believe
we are representing the honest be
lief of all with whom we have talk
ed that something should be done
forthwith by your depaitment to
wards repairing and reconstructing
tho north jetty so as to prevent this
and from washing through the
breaks.
f "We would also represent that re-
cently one of the vessels above re
ferred to struck something while
crossing the bar which has carried
away her rudder, and it is believed
by many on account of the depth of
water that the rudder must have
been carried away by one of tho
rocks which had been washed from
the jetty with the broken parts
-above referred to.
"And it has also been said and
our congressmen concurred that
Upon this emergency being made
clear by your report and the prob
able cost of repairing and recon
structing the north jetty, could be
accomplished for two hundred thou
sand dollars less than the cost and
operation of the proposed sea-going
dredge, for which an appropriation
of five hundred thousand dollars has
been recommended by your depart
ment, that the congressman could
probably delay that appropriation
aud get what your engineer depart-
w ment would recommend that Is ne
cessary for the repair and leeon
strue'lon of tho north jetty, by rea
son of this emergency. It was tho
wish of those attending tho mass
meeting when your committee was
appointed, that tho committee per
sonally call upon you, but by rea
son of your rt'cen illness and the
fact of you being about to take a
racatlon, tho committee has decided
to submit I lie mattor to you in this
way, so that you can puss the de
Kalls over more easily to some of
ycur assistants In case you are un
able to give It attention. The com
mittee also regrets being compelled
to ask j on to give tho matter any
thought at all un U you havo en
tirely recovered, but understanding
that you are again ot the olllco for
a short time and tho linpoitnuco of
this emergency to the nalgatlon of
Goos Bay, wo respectfully submit
this condition of nffaiih to you as
we got It from tiO best Informed
rocldPits here regarding tho naviga
tion of Coos Bay."

"LAXACOLD" Is composed of efficient drugs for -the relief
of the complaints for which it is intended, and these ingredi
ents are scleu.lfically blendsd so as to get their most beneficial
effects. ,
"LAXACOLD" Is put up In an elegant formj and, being
sugar-coated, Is pleasant to take.
For the relief of a "common cold," there Is nothing more
efficacious and prompt. In ordinary, uncomplicated cabes, it
will give relief in a day and a night. A "cold" Is due to the
sudden checking of the elimination through the pores of the
skin of ceitaln effete products that are deleterious if retained.
"LAXACOLD" is made to fill these indications, which it
does admirably, and it can be taken wi'h the assurance that
it Is as good a preparation of its kind as can be devised.'
