Men from Eastern Oregon and

Coquillu River, according to tho fol
lowing whlqh appeared In tho Courlor
of Grnntn Pass:
,M. J. JtiiUorflon, Geo. W. JJonnoll,
Fred Williams, of Grants J?ass, and
G. W. Johnson and W. L. Vnudor-
htool of 1-iistern Oregon, havoTecent-
ly returned from a visit from tho
nouth fork of tho Cogulllo RIvor at
n point nbnut thirty miles southeast
of Myrtle Point, whom they havo
been oxnmlnlng a voluablo wator
powor site. This power was Hied upon
loj tho purju'Bo of furnishing olectrlc
power and light to tho coast cities,
including Mnrshflold, North Bond,
Unndon, CoqcJllo City and Myrtlo
Point. Pnrt of tho engineering on
thltj proposition has already been
done, and the balance will bo com
pleted during tho present month.
Thoro is snld to bo from C.000 to
10,000 horsopower at this point, nnd
ran ox j.uuu icei in mo uisuincu ui
ono mile, making this ono of tho
cheapost powers to dovolop to bo
found on tho coast.
Somo time, when nil life's lessons
hnve been learned,
And sun nnd stars forevermore
havo set,
The things which our weak Judgment
here has spurned,
' Tho things o'er which wo grieved
with lnshcs wet,
Will fltiBh before us out of life's
dnrk night,
As stnrs shine most In deeper tints
of blue,
And wo shall seo how all God's plans
wero right,
And how whnt seemed reproof wns
lovo most true.
And If, somo time, commingled with
llfo's wine,
Wo find tho wormwood, nnd rebel
nnd shrink,
Bo suro a wiser hnnd thnn yours or
mlno
Pours out this potion for our lips
to drink;
And If somo friend wc love 1b lying
low,
Whcro human kisses cannot rench
his face,
Oh I do not blnmo tho loving Father
Bui lionr your sorrow with obedi
ent grncc.
And "you shnll shortly" know thnt
lengthened breath
In not tho sweetest gift God Bonds
His friend,
And thnt sometimes tho snblo pnll of
death
Conceals tho fairest boon His lovo
can send.
If wo could push njnr tho gntes of
lire,
And stand within nnd nil God'H
working see.
We could Interpret nil this doubt nnd
strife.
And for ench niyHtwy could find n
key.
But not to-day. Then bo content,
poor "heart:
God's plans, llko lilies pure nnd
wh'lte, unfold;
Wo rnnst not tear the close ahnt
leaves npnTf;
TImo will roven'l tho calyxes of
Ktfld.
And II Uirougli patient toll wo reach
tho land
Wlrnro tired feet, with sandal
looso, niny Tost,
When ivcRhall clearly Ttnow nnd nn-
'flerstnnfl,
I think that wo slin'll Bay that God
3mow best."
