MARSHFIELD has within tho past week felt tho first fntut vibrations
of a new awakening. Somo call It u boom, others progress, enter
prise, development. Boom Is not n nlco word nnd booms nro not
nlco things. Boom suggests n loud report but there Is nothing to It
but noise. Tho bullet docs tho work but tho boom of tho gun's report
Is only hallow Bound. Sometimes onterpriso nnd rcnl development nro
miscalled booms because tho first premonitory symptoms are about tho
same. Both nro accompanied by activity nnd somo excitement but un
less tliero is something substantial bnck of tho nctlvlty It ends In empti
ness nnd disappointment. That Is why It is known ns n boom. Rcnl en
terprise nnd development mnrches bravely forward nnd leaves a substan
tial structure to mark its advance. Tho difference Is somothlng llko
tho cynic's definition of speculation and gambling. If your investment
Is n success and you win it is speculation, If you lose It is gambling. If
onterpriso nnd development accompany n display of nctlvlty It rtiny bo
known ns real constructive work,. If It Is moroly ronl cstnto speculation
It Is a boom. May tho Good Lord deliver us from booms.
For rcnl development of Its resources Coos Bny Is white unto tho hnr
vest. It Is to bo hoped theso first faint vibrations nro the heralds of
Mio coming of that for which wo hnvo waited long somo very long.
There nro men, nnd thoy nro men of substnnco and achievement, who
sny that on tho shores of this bny with Its magnlllc'ent harbor a great
city will bo built. Not a merely prosperous country town of 25,000 or
50,000 population- but n real metropolis, not tho second city In Oregon
but tho first. It sounds largo and looks llko a dream. Men who have
made the predictions hnvo boon denominated dreamers. Men who lack
tho power of vision laugh nt dreamers but dreamers of today nro tho
builders of tomorrow. I ennnot resist quoting nt this point, It seems, so
truly applicable to tho men who bolleyj In Coos Bay's great future, Ro
glnnld Kaufman's npostropho to tho dreamers:
"They nro tho nrchltccts of greatness. Their vision lies within their
souls. They nover sco tho mlrngcB of Fact, but peer beyond tho volls
nnd mists of doubt nnd plorco tho wnlls of unborn Tlmo.
Tho World .hns nccolnded thorn' with Jeor nnd sneer nnd glbo, for worlds
nro mndo of llttlo men who tnko but nover give who shnro but novor
spare who cheer a grudgo nnd grudgo n cheer.
Wherefore, tho paths of progress hnvo been sobs of blood dropped
from their brokon hearts.
Makers of empire thoy hnvo fought for blggor things than crowns
nnd higher sents than thrones. Fnnfnro nnd pnKoaijt nnd tho right to
rule or will to lovo nro not tho fires which wrought their resolution into
steel. Orlof only streaks tholr hairs with silver, but has novor grayed
their diopes. 'i
Thoy nro tho Argonauts, tho Bookers of tho priceless fleece tho Truth.
Through all tho ngos thoy hnvo hoard tho voice of Destiny cnll to them

no compnBs savo their dreams, thoyj sail away undaunted for tho far,
blind shores.
Their brains have wrought nil humnn miracles. In laco of stono their
spires stab tho Old World's skies nnd with their golden crosses kiss tho
sun.
Tho belted wheel, tho trail of stool, tho churning screw, aro shuttles
In tho loom on which thoy weave tholr maglcTtapcstrles.
A Hash out In tho night leaps leagues of snarling seas and cries to

Their tunnels plow tho rlvor bod and chain tho lslauds to tho Mother
land. Their Tvlngs of canvns bent tho nlr nnd add tho highways of tho ooglo
to tho human paths.
A God hown volco swells from n disk of gluo nnd wells out through n
throat of brass, caught sweet nnd wholo, to Inst beyond tho maker of
tho song, because a drenmor dreamt.
What would you have of fancy or of fact if hands woro'all with which
men had to build?
Your homes nro sot upon tho lnnd a drenmor found. Tho pictures on
Its walls nro visions from n drenmer'n soul. A drcamor's pain walls

Doubt's bnndngo on their oyes who stnrvo nnd chill nnd hurt, but hold
to courngo nnd to hope, becauso thoy know thnt thoro is nlwnys proof of
truth for them who try that only cownrdlco nnd IncK of faith can keep
tho seeker from his chosen gonl, but If his heart bo strong nnd If ho
drenm enoughnnd dream It hard enough, ho can attain, no mnttor whoro
mon fnlled before.
Wnlls crumblci and omplres fall. Tho tidal wavo sweeps from tho sea
o,i ! n fnrtross fmm Its rocks. Tho rottliiK nation drop from off
Time's bough, nnd only things tho droamors mnko llvo on.
Thoy nro tho Eternal Conquerors tholr vnssnls nro tho yonrs."
Coos Bay hns hnd threo booms nnd thrco times sho hnB gono down but
sho hns novor boon counted out. When tho smoko of tho booms sho hns
had clears nwny it shows that thoro was always somo real advancement
and dovolopment whloh provos tho solidarity of hor strength nnd tho
Eiibstnnco of hor rcsourcos. Sho has beon'strong In advorslty. You can't

mon may harrnss and hampor hor progress but thoy enn't stop hor. Hor
days of adversity have bcon only tho test-tubes that proved hor worth.
That same vlrllo writer Kaufman says:
"How many times enn you tnko-a drubbing nnd still tnko hoart? Wo
