CUT-OFF PUN
IS OPPOSED
Coos River Ranchers Do Not
Want It Shut Off Give
Reasons For It.
Residents of Coos River arc plan
ning to send n big delegation to tlin
next meeting of the Port of Coos Hay
Commission to enter protest ngalnst
the sliuttlng off of tho "Coos River
cut-off." The Port Commission hnd
the mntter up for discussion at re
cent meetings owing to the clnlm
that unless something Is dono soon,
the channel of Coos River will chnngo
to the cut-off ns the latter Is being
rapidly widened and deepened by
every little freshet.
Tho Coos River ranchers who ale
opposed to the shutting off of tho
cut-off give two rensons for their at
titude. One Is that tbo shuttlng-nff
of the cut-off will prevent tho i mild
How from Coos River during fresh
ets and that consequently tho water
will rise higher in the stream and
do more dnmngc to tho lowlands in
tho vnlloy. Another Is thnt the cut
off saves considerable time In coming
nnd going from Mnrshllcld and espe
cially to mid from points on Catch
ing Inlet.
The Port Commission owing to the
cost of tho proposed shutting off of
tho cut-orf being about $4,000 has
not tho funds to do It now nnd nt
nny rate will not take final nctlon on
It until tho Coos River residents have
ample opportunity to present their
Bide of tlie case.

HOW TO RE HAPPY
THROUGH MARRIED
(ny President Tnft)
On the eve of his silver wedding
anniversary, the president (unofll
clnlly) mndo known tho secret of a
"quarter of n century of wedded happi
ness and success. t
His recipe Vj:
"AbBoluto and positive lovo for
ono another nt the beginning.
Ambition on the pnrt of both for
tho success of tho family, with nn
nbundnnce of energy on the pnrt of
both to carry out their' ambition.
"Tenm work.
"Manliness nnd womnnltncss, com
bined with mngnnnlnilty. Never n
single swerving from this course.
''Directness in nil relations with
ono another nnd those with whom so
cial, political nnd business Inter
course Is hnd.
"Never bo subservient to nny man
or underhanded.
"Hnvo moral courngo to reject nny
thlng and everything requiring sub
servience.
"Unselfishness in nil rolntlons with
mankind nnd n readiness to meet with
nnd trent with all humanity.
"A contliiunnco nnd growth of tho
affection for one nnothor."
Now tho most optimistic booster
or nil this bay country hns not yet
ventured thus fnr In his lnudhtory
description of Coos Day's future,
hence this stntoment may. nnd un
doubtedly will, bo considered nn Mdlo
drenm," by many, but here nro tho
figures, denr render, take your mnp
of Coos Ray and verify my cnlcula-
tlons for yourself.
The assertion nbovo mndo will bo
proven by a comparison of the area
of Coos Hay with thnt of what engi
neers ncknowledgo will bo tho lnrgest
harbor and dock system over con
structed in tho world, nnmolv. tho
hnrbor at the Pacific end of tho Pnn.v
m a Cnnnl.
As planned, tho Pnnnmn project Is
to consist of n series of parallel piers
and alternating slips, constructed on
two opposlto sides of n rectnngulnr
turning basin 3,000 feet wide be
tween tho pier ends. Tho piers nro
to bo each 1,000 ft long, nnd tho
slips between, 300 feet wide, thus
malting nmplo provision for docking
tho biggest ship thnt floats, nnd for
facilitating the loading nnd unload
ing of any number of vessels nt tho
snmo time.
Held.
Ho said, "tho most useless Indi
vidual In the world Is tho sleepy
head and llkowlso tho most usolesa
follower of Christ 1b tho ono who la
sleeping. Is It possible thnt men to
day aro sleeping? I bollovo it Is.
Tho ungodly mnn is surely asleep. Ho
hath ears nnd hears not, eyes nnd
sees not. Surely thnt Is sleeping. It
seems to mo thnt tho cities of tlio
Pacific coast nro nit nslcop In mut
ters religious. Rut men who nro
making riches their god will nwuko
somc day, when It Is too Into, to HnJ
thnt tho treasures of this world lmvo
vanished and nil Is vanity.
"If n wotch dog wero to waken Ills
sleeping muster, nnd tho master
arousing should shoot tho faithful
dog and then go back to Bleep, allow
ing Ills house to bo robbed, would1 it
bo tho fnult of the dog? Mr. Halt
likened tho church to tho watch dogu

time, but wo will consider, in this
comparison, however, tho whole area
to be Included lu-tho Panama scheme,
which Is, approximately, C75 acres,
with about two miles of wator front
age, and this Is to bo tho greatest
harbor known, moHt of which will
be excavated out of solid earth and
rock, at an enormous cost, whtlo here
wo hnvo Coos Ray as completely land
locked nnd ns perfect n harbor of snfe
ty as thnt of Pnnnmn, with the hnlf
already excavated by Nature, and tho
other half easily and cheaply removed
by a common suction dredge!
Now for tho comparison. Coos
Rny, with its Inlots to tide wntor lim
it, contains 29 square miles of wntor
surface, or 18,500 acres, all of which
It Is possible to maintain nt n depth
keep nwnko to our duty to warn tho
uusnved sinners? There nre so ninny
sleepers In the churches thnt thoaoi
who nro nwnko nnd would glvo warn
ing nro stumbling ovor tho sleepers.
I sny to you, pnrcnts nnd teachers of
Marshfleld, awake beforo It Is ever
lastingly too lato nnd tho youth or
this city Is lost in sin. It scorns- tu
bo Coos Hay's slogan when tho ques
tion of religion Is raised, "O, wlint Iff
tho use." Christ would not hnvo
come Into tho world of It had bcon no
use.
"If Jesus wero hero now Ho woulcE

On Coos nay it is possible to se
