TUB abstract cssenco of tho com
munication appearing In an
other column this evening Is
tho earnest dcalre of tho writer for
. a bettor public spirit on Coos Day
whothor It bo applied to n rnllwny or
. an exhibit at the Panama Imposition
'or any other advantageous develop
ment; and In this particular plea
and Its presentment, wo agree moat
heartily; In fact wo commend him
tfrcoly for the candor and tlmellucaH
of his expression. Wo believe we
nro justlilod In assuring this good
toltizon that there In plenty of amend
snout afoot and this city and section
nro llvenliiK up and takliiK stock of
tho possibilities confronting thorn;
that this sousing of the good things
In store for us and tho lino nativity
apparent In their pursuit, Is sound
nud dependable, and that Coos Day
trill nut hark back to the Htupld and
iAuRlflng courses which have
jnarkod her past career. We nro so
auro of thts that wu aro congratulat
ing ourselves upon having at hint
achieved somo show of compensation
for tho work dono In this big cruise.
Tho lucldonts of municipal pro
gress alluded to by tho writer of the
communication, nud which nro well
known and understood, hnvo each
had, for their Initiation, some extra
ordinary oxpected, and assured, nd-
vantngo, to warrant tho enormous ef
forts and unlimited monies requisite
for tholr fulllllment; something to
work to, and for, and within tho
courso of the sacrifices thoy made to
progress.
Coos fltty has thU Incentive In
many directions, a railway, harbor
improvement, manufacturing Indus
tries. Let us take heed of thiMe other
uueeessful cities and emulate tholr
Duo example.
XIV POUTS.
THERE Is not only a powerful
suggestion hut food for thought
for tho onriuHit friends of Coos
Uny harbor In n knowledge and a
study of tho troiuondous change
that aro taking place In ocean com
merce all over tho world.
It would seem that the pro-oml-jionio
of such great English ports as
Liverpool nud Southampton. London
and Glasgow, is doomed. Such is
the east with mnuy another port in
tho world, aud the causo la not far
to sook, It Is tho building of mon
strous steamers, some of which havo
n gross capacity of upwards of 50,
000 tons. The English nro provid
ing for the now conditions with an
energy which scorns to be more
American than Hrltlsh. Thoy nro
making the Solent, thoso historic
waters In which tho Amoiien's cup
was won. Into a new port. Tho
Solent Is n narrow strip of son, a
strait lying betweon tho Isle of Wight
nnd tho mainland of Knglnnd. It
tins deen water. Hero a gigantic
flock is bolng constructed, with an
ontranco 300 foot wldo and dockago
nf te. li
being constructed. This port would
only bo an hour and n half from
London. Of courso, this will not
provldo sufficient space and other
ports will havo to be constructed.
It Is probable that this will mean
even the further extension of London
seaward nnd tho construction of n
port at Southend, forty miles below
London brldgo In tho estuary of the
Thames river. Exactly what Liver
pool nnd Glasgow menu to do has not
as yet been developed, but It Is un
likely thnt the Glasgoweglans, at all
ovonts, will yield without a struggle.
The Glasgoweglans nro Intensely
proud of tholr port they mndo out of
the muddy ditch thnt Is called the
Clyde, and that pride will lead to
great undertakings.
There la a characteristic story told
of the pride of tho Scot In his port:
A Glasgoweglan showed a son of St.
Louis the Clyde, and the American,
looking at the little runlet, said. "If
you want to see a river go to the
Mississippi. It Is -1.000 miles long
nnd ten broad." "Ilech," retorted
the Scot, "the Almlchty made yon
river, we made this yuu orrsel."
And that's the pride and the In
spiration the people of Coos Day
should feel In tholr harbor. The Al
mighty hns done much for Coos Day
and we should do something "oor-
sols."

nro of tho very meat and marrow
progress and tho reliableness there
of. Whonovor n community Is call
ed upon to sacrifice Its best and
most virile, to disease, accident,
death, it loses heavily, bocauso Its
futuro is discounted Just that much
in tho lost forco of character, power,
oxamplo nnd mensuro of success.
Tho old, tho world-weary, tho experience-worn,

They are equally as convenient in fall and winter as
they are in the hot weather. There may be less
discomfort from kitchen fires, to be sure, but the electric
flat iron has many other advantages than saving heat.
They save drudgery. They save footsteps betweea
ironing board and stove. They never need changing.
They are always clean and uniformly hot ready at
