Harrlman, "!b based upon vision." What tho great railroad and flnnnclnl gonitis had In mind un doubtedly was tho ability to vlsuallzo tho futuro from tho present and act upon thnt visualization. All big achievements In flnanco havo been based upon this quality. It has been tho man who saw towns In tho sago brtiBh, who saw mills on tho deserted Btrcatu, who had tho Imagination to construct things that did not exist nnd tho courago to act upon that assumption, who has climbed high on tho ladder of material success. It was tho man who saw tho world bound with telegraph wires, when thoro was only ono wlro from Washington to Baltlmoro, nnd who hnd the courage to net upon that vision who made a fortune In the tele graph. ' v ,; It was tho man who snw hundreds of towns nnd cities nnd thousands of peoplo In tho far west whon tiiero wero only a fow pack traliiB nnd n few pioneer's who mndo n fortuno In western railroads.. And today It Is tho man In Marsh field who sees thonsnnds of peoplo whoro thoro are only hundreds, who sees ninny transcontinental rnll rnmls where thoro Is only one, who sees what Coos Hay is, to be In twenty yenrs rathor than what It Is todny, who will receive tho. big re ward which this, valley holds for tho man of vision and courago. Most great mon havo been crazy until It was domonstrntcd that their Insanity wns merely a clearer vision than their fellows.' Morse was a dreamer. Dnrwln wns hnlf-bnkcd. Tho Wright brothers woro known In Dayton, Ohio, as harmless freaks until thoy startled tho world by flying In heavier than nlr mnchlnos. "" So thoro nro men In Mnrshtlold todny who see a city of 50,000 people. They see tho greatest lumbor district In tho United Stntes. They sea Intcmrbnu lines scurrying through tho valley connecting towns larger than Marshfleld Is today. They sco railway terminals nnd n great wholcsnlo district that will distribute tho products of other countries nnd other climes to tho grcnt nnd growing section thnt lies oast of Coos Dny. Thoy seo fnctorlOB thnt aro busy converting tho great timber resources of this Bcctlon Into lum ber to build homes nnd articles for uso thoroln. They Bee n great dairy and agricultural section furnishing food products for nil parts ol tho world. Thoy sco wealth, success and happy homes. To tho man with raoro hlnd-stght than foresight, with moro fear than courago, with moro stolidity than ontorprlao, such mon nro crazy. Thoy nro boomers, visionaries, hair brains nnd what not. No doubt some of tho prophecies nro extravagant. All of them will not bo fulfilled. But nt tho foundation of such a spirit Is tho dynamic force that spoils success.' It Is to such mon thnt Coos Day owes her futuro, and whom tho futuro will nbundnntly roward. Tho Times deplores and decries a real cstato boom based on nothing but hot nlr but It wolcomos u spirit of ontorprlso thnt enfolds tho do'vol opmont of Coos Dny's grcnt natural, resources and means that this see tlon Is to como Into Its own.
