Day commission nnd was Instituted
by tho state In order to settle a ques
tion ns to the meaning of tho Port
Lnw, raised by the Oregon Supremo
Court when thnt body passed on nn
othor port cnso a year ago.
Gov. West announced thnt tho cnso
would not bo appealed unless somo
one besides tho stnto boro the expense
of tho appeal, It Is said. Then J. W.
Bennett came ln nnd agreed that his
clients would bear the expense of tho
nppcnl of the case and acting on this,
Prosecuting Attorney Brown, nnd De
puty Prosecuting Attorney Llljeqvlstj
arranged to nppcnl It and hnvo tho i
supreme court pnss on the question.
Mr. Llljeqvlst stntod yesterday that
he would endeavor to secure action
In tho supremo court nt tho earliest
possible time. Until tho case Is de
cided In tho supremo court, It Is like
ly thnt It will holdup tho proposed
salo of bonds by tho Port Commis
sion to raise funds for tho Improve
ment of tho harbor nnd Inlets.
Coqiilllc Port Ciim.
Mr. Llljeqvlst also has another
port cnso on his hands now, tho ap
plication of tho Myrtlo Point resi
dents for a special election to organ
ize n port there having been roforrcd
to him. Tho proposed Myrtlo Point
port takes In a Inrgo section of tho
county, practically nil tho southeast
ern corner, extending north to tho
boundary of tho Port of Coos Bay nnd
west to within n short distance of tho
city of Coqulllc.
Residents of Coqulllo nnd Bnndon
declare that tho action of Myrtlo
Point Is to thwart tho proposed plan
to form n port embracing the cntlro
Coqulllo vnlloy to lmprovo tho river
nnd hnrhor. If the proposed Myrtlo
Point port Is organized, It will hnvo
n comparatively small section of tho
waterway to lmprovo nnd will pre
vent tho proporty ln thnt vicinity be
ing tnxed for the Improvement of tho
lower Coqulllo river. Feeling Is snld

SACItAMENTO, Nov. S. On th
outskirts of tho city of Sacramento,
tho Southern . Pacific company U.
erecting u steel brldgo acrois tho
Sacramento river thnt contains tht
heaviest swing spnu of any bridge la
tho world. This plan Is 400 feet la
length nnd Its weight Is 6,300,000
pounds. Tho cntlro bridge, however,
will weigh moro thnn 10,000,000
poundo when It has all been placed
In position upon tho heavy concrete
piers.
Thero nro only two steel bridges
in tho world that have swing spans
that exceed tho now Sacramento rlr
or brldgo In length. Ono Is acroM
tho Wlllnmetto river and ls a part
of tho Spokane, Portland and Seat
tlo railway system. Its weight, how
ever, Is only C.-l 00,000 pounds, 900,
000 pounds less thnn that of tht
Sacramento river bridge. Tho Orna
hn Termlnnl company operates a
largo stool brldgo across tho Missouri
river that has n swing span 520 feet
In length, but tho steel Is of much
lighter construction, tho weight being
only 5,1 00,000 pounds.
Tho now Sacramento river brldg
of tho Southern Pacific Is a part of
tho double tracking of the Horrlman
