STRAWS SHOW, ETC. rm HAT WAS an Interesting news I Item Tho Times published Sat urday showing that Myrtle Grange of Myrtle Point, publicly de clared against the proposed Assem bly by the machine leaders of Ore gon. This is the first expression of the people and gives the Ho direct to the Oregonian's statement that Coos county favors the Assembly. A few politicians may, but tho great major ity of the voters believe In and will stick by the direct primary. Walt and watch! WAIT AM) WATCH. wpjHE LONG discussed, much plan sj ned assembly scheme Is now " ready for use. An assembly, or In other words a convention, is to be held in Portland In July. At that time a slato will bo adopted and when tho primary election is held tho machine element throughout tho entire state will get behind it and try to put it through. Tho former political "leaders" want to get back Into power. They want to do away with the "abuses" of the direct prim ary. Thoy don't want candidates for nominations to come out by them selves, mako promises direct to tho peoplo and run for ofllce upon their merits. They want them to como to tho bosses and tho bosslets as they did of old. A man is forward and solf seeking who comes out for office of his own account without first "fixing matters" with tho pow ers that be. If a man wants to run for ofllco ho should go see Joe Simon or some other remnant of tho rotten ring that once dominated this state. Ho should not look to tho citizen ship of tho state. Only a demagogue does that. At least this is the view of tho assomblytes. However tho peoplo of Oregon ad opted tho direct primary law. They did so for a purpose. They did so In order to wipe out bossism. In order to do away with galling, assl nlno system of allowing a few self appointed political manager to name tho officials and dictate tho policies of this state. It is a pretty safe guess that tho people have no desire to roturn to the old system. Somo politicians may bo weary of tho di rect primary, nut tho rank and file of tho peoplo nro cntlroly satisfied Avlth it. Wait and watch what they do to tho slate that will bo framed up by Mr. Simon and his fellow ring sters. Tho action of Myrtlo Grango at Myrtlo Point In declaring against tho Assembly Is merely an Intima tion of tho sentiment of tho peoplo of Coos county.

Be moorland and bo loch and whin ye've mourned for all your lost, But still ye've smiled and still ye've watched and counted not ttie cost.

There are people who live in such a way that death Is about the best luck that can befall them.. It Is always easier to remember what you have done for others than to recall favors extended to you. The sympathy of a man who Isn't really sorry for you, is about the most unsatisfactory thing on earth. Those under 20 see the form of a good fairy in the flames of a .great fire, but those past that age more of ten conjure up a boogy man. Why can't a woman realize that it is ridiculous to run around the streets with a great stock of false curls and puffs on her head? Every one has his ghost: To par ents the Thing that is most haunting is the man who will come along some day and steal the daughter. Talk all you please about exact justico to all, It happens every day that a big dog chases a llttlo dog away after tho little dog has found it first. Never bet witlua woman. If you win she'll say no gentleman expects to collect a bet from a lady; and, If you lose, sho says every gentleman makes it a point of honor to pay a bet he loses to a lady. hind that of Roosevelt, who Is the first choice of 13G0. It is to bo considered, too, that theso expressions were made prior to tho delivery of Mr. Taft's Lincoln day address, which has greatly strengthened his hold on public con fidence and admiration. It Is significant that out of a field of eight, Roosevelt and Taft were tho first cholco of four-fifths of those voting. LaFollette, by many thought to be a popular idol, was tho first cholco of only 197 editors evi dence that his radical opinions are generally considered too extreme for tho presidential office. Sonator Cummins, of Iowa, who lias come to bo regarded ns the political embodi ment of republican disaffection with tho now tariff law, also made rather a poor showiug with G5 votes. On tho other hand Speaker Cannon, who is regarded as the political Incarna tion of tho radical reactionaries, was tho cholco of only 1 1 out of 3,000 republican editors. This extensive canvass indicates pretty conclusively that tho masses of tho republican voters hold firm In tholr approval of tile Roosovelt-Taft doctrlnos. They also declared against the Aldrlch-Pnyno tariff by a vote of .GSG against to 812 for. It em phasizes anew that In tho Interim betweon presidential olectlon3.

LUSTSIDE IS A WINNER. IT'S THE GREATEST THING ON EARTH WHEN YOU WANT TO READ OR SEW IS A GOOD LIGHT- GET A TUNGSTEN WE HAVE ALL SIZES Marshfield Electric Fixture and Supply House THE ARGO WRECK. Life Snvcr Gives An Account of Res cue Effort At Tillamook. Editor Coos Bay Times: Referring to tho article entitled, "Why is a Life Saver" in your paper of February 2, I would like for tho onlightment of the public and our learned heavy weather brother who wrote It, to make a few remarks re garding his statement about some crew of other (ho does not say which), managing to launch a boat and get to a wreck, but in coming back running full-tilt against the beach upsetting and drowning sev eral persons I was a member of tl Tillamook Bay Life Saving crew at the time of tho Argo disaster and as I think he is referring to that in cident, I have decided for the honor of this Life Saving station to tell him about It. When the Argo was wreck ed the weather was bad with a dan gerous surf breaking clear across the bar, the Argo attempted to cross in against a strong ebb tide with a heavy freshet In the bay and a big tide. She drifted on the South Spit which she pounded over into open water In a sinking condition. Mean while we had left the beach in the Beebe McLellan boat which Is the only one we had at that time and which is I believe the smallest and lightest boat provided by the service. She is a self-bailer but not a self righter and for the purpose which she is built is a good boat namely for working off tho beach Inside the heaviest breakers. We did not think We had a chance In the world of crossing the bar In such a boat, but we just went, and it's nothing short of a miracle we got through as lucky as we did. In crossing tho bar our boat was shot clear off the top of a breaker by the strong ebb and land ed the whole weight in the trough of tho next sea splitting her under neath just forward of midship on both sides of her keel. When wo re ceived tho Argo passengers she al most swamped with us and we had to put them on board again, tho' tho men begged us to at least tako tho women, which we did promising to como back as soon as our boat was fixed. It was then a question of getting ashore, so bailing all the while, we started for the beach, the tide being too strong to cross the bar. But had we only managed to get close enough to run our boat full tilt against the beach and upset It as our very learned friend puts it, the danger would have been over, as. people don't usually drown in one foot of water. Instead our boat be ing full of water with each breaker going clear over her and putting such a strain on our drogue that the canvas burst and sho just naturally capsized half a mile from tho beach and as most of us were out of com mission and could not right her the rest of the way was very turbid tra veling. Had tho boat been a Dob bin's self-rlghter tho story would have been different. Now if tho pa pers had a true account of the dis aster saying our boat was obsolete which is not true, she is all we had and wo had to mako some attempt. Sho Is not meant for that work and Is not truly a life-boat but resembles a Columbia river fishing boat. This station has since beon supplied with a 28-foot Dobbins. If the gentleman who wrote that article (which is nonsensical), in the San Francisco Wasp will read tho Life Saving rec ord ho will find It a brilliant one but tho public hears only of tho failures not tho successes and I want to say that the peoplo of Tillamook county have every confidence In the captain and crow stationed hero who they know will go whether thero Is a chance or not. They proved It In the Argo dlsnster and It was not their fault that the boat was not all It might have been. Wo all of us have our own opinions of the Czarina dis aster which also has caused much comment, but tho beach apparatus litis not a brilliant record for If a lino does rench a vessel everything gets fouled by the surf and they , mostly drown hauling them ashore and ir nothing can bo dono with a boat It Is useless to try to shoot a lino aboard except In casos where a vessel Is on the rocks beneath a high bluff. I would suggest the wise acre who wrote that in the San Fiaucisco Wasp go back on tho ranch and make hay or raise chick ens from the way he writes ho would never face a winter's surf on tho Pacific coast.
