IT'S GREAT TO 1JE A JUROR.

Such swearing falso and truo t
Of witnesses for tho defense
And complaint, also by lawyovs

But tho Juiv sifts it out,
They argufy tho mattah somo
And understand no doubt.
When locked up In that cussed box,
And froxen stiff as Ico
Or sweltored, roasted, smothered,
. In summer, sure It's nlco.
'TIs great to ho a Juror,
Be marched off two and two
In lockstep by tho Ballff

(When you're on a murder case
' And locked up ovor night

It's tough but still it's right. fc

ASKS FOR HARMONY OF ACTION.
Editor Coos Bny Times:
I was much Interested In your
ed'torlnls of Novombor 28th "Tlmo
fpr Action" and "Got tho Habit."
Thoy desorvo caroful and frequent
.rending. For yoars Coos Bay lm
boen commercially, a sleoplng young
slant. Whon hor good peoplo (and
there aro no bottor) awako to hor
possibilities, and shako off their
drowsinoas, nB thoy will do, nnd no
did Portland but a fow yoars ago,
thoy will show a strongth In tho
manufacturing and commercial
world gratifying to tho most snn
gulno boostor. Nnturo lins lavlsued
upon us resources of nn unusual nn
turo nnd oxtont, and it Is necessary
to lot tho great numbor who aro seek
ing opportunity know of those nd-
vnntngos, and to hold out tho glntl
hand, In order to oncourngo them to
Join us In n forward movemont which
will monn union to every buslncjs
nnd profosslonill man, and ovory
proporty owner.
I have hoard moro complaint from
nowoomers and visitors of a lack of
enthusiasm, nnd of a unanimity of
effort on tho part of our own poo
nlo. than of any othor condition that
exists on Coos Bny. "Tho hlghor
lavols of human elllcloncy or nchlovo
men: t aover roached without hard
climbing," nnd In this respect, as In
many others, that which will apply
to tho individual' will also be found
truo of tho community. However,
the lifting of a community to a hlgn
er plane moans tho unltod efforts of
tho individuals composing it.
Wo might Just as well expect the
Smith Lumber Company to mako a
success of its business by assigning
all" the work of' that Institution ton
dozen beadB of different departments,
as to expect a corporal's guard of
HARBOR WORK
IS DISCUSSED
Major Morrow Says Bids Are
Being Received On Bar
Dredge For Coos Bay
The United States govcrnmont is
now receiving bids for tho construc
tion of tho bar-dredgo to bo used on
tho Coos Bny bar projects, according
to information given C. R. Peck nnd
W. P. .Evans, members of tho Coos
Bny Port Commission, nt n confor
onco In Portlnnd n few days ngo by
Major Morrow, government engineer
In chnrgo of this district. Major
Morrow also stntod thnt If tho
dredge Is built on tho Eastern const,
It will probnbly bo well along In tho
summer of 1912 boforo It will bo at
Coos Bay ready for work, but that
If it is built on tho Pacific coast, it
will probably bo ready for sorvlco
early In tho spring of 1912.
At thb conference, tho Cooa Bay
hnrbor Improvement question wns
quite fully discussed and tho attitude
nnd position of Mnjor Morrow wns
moro than pleasing to the Coos Bay
men. Mnjor Morrow stated that ho
would visit Coob Bay this winter
whon tho bar would be at Its worst
so ns to got an ndequnto Idea of tho
needs of tho situation.
In discussing tho bar Improve
ment, Mnjor Morrow expressed the
opinion thnt tho North Jetty would
ovcntunlly havo to bo rebuilt and
oxtonded to work In conjunction with
tho bar d red go nnd mnko It n suc
cess. Ho stated that If tho Jetty was
so sunken ns to permit tho waves to
wash sand over It, tho dredge would
not bo llnblo to tako It away ns
fust ns it would wash In.
Cnpt. Mncgcnn of tho Brenkwator,
Is onllstlng tho aid of tho high of
ficials of tho Southern Pacific on

Tho boglnuliig of hnrbor Improve
ment, tho near completion of tho
Pnnamn cnnnl, tho prospect of rail
road building, and tho almost un-
cqualiod resources which Ho at our
command, Hhouid nrouso us to a
realization of tho possibilities which
llo boforo us, and causo us to Join In
n unanimous effort to bring to tho
front results which wo all doslro. Wo
bollovo that next to homo loyalty wo
should count civic prldo. This spirit
of city loyalty and enterprise has
built Lob Angeles, a city of moro
tlinn three hundred thousnnd, in n
placo whoro It sooined that nntun

a city at nil.
Tho snmo may bo said of Denvor.

DAILY DUTIES.
The bet things are nearcit
breath in your nostrils, light in your
eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at

the stars, but do life's plain, com
mon work as it comes, certain that
daily duties and daily bread are
the sweetest things of life. Robert
