TO MOVE LIFE
SAVING STATION
Campaign to Secure Location
Near Charleston Renewed
As Result of Disaster.
As a result of tho launch ' North
Star disaster, It Is likely thnt tho
Coob liny Ltfo Saving Station will bo
moved to a nlto near Charleston Hay
and Coos llond.
It Is claimed thnt If tho Ufa saving
station had been locnted there, It Ih
probablo that tho launch North Stnr
No. 1 or part or possibly nil of Us
pnBscngorfl could havo been saved
Saturday night.
Evoryono who 1b familiar with tho
situation takoB thin vlow of 11 and
unites In dcclnrlng thnt stops should
bo takon Immcdlntoly to bco thnt
tho Btatlon 1b moved. Tho lookout
ntntlon could bo mnlntulnod where It
now Is or moved to nonror tho pro
posed slto Just ns Is doomed advis
able Dr. J. T. McCormnc, president of
tho Chnmbor of Commerce, who lias
had tho matter up with tho ofllclnls
nt Washington n numbor of times
nnd who Iiob presented lottom nnd
dntn showing why tho ntntlon Hhould
bo moved Immcdlntoly resumed tho
campaign yestorduy morning by send
ing tho following tologrnmH to Con
gressman W. C. Hawloy:
"Disabled gasollno boat drifted
over Coos Dny bar yestorday and nix
men woro drowned by tho tlmo tlio
llfo Having crow had arrlvod from tlio
stntlon two miles nway.
Hud tho station boun located nt
Chnrloston nt tho ontrnnco to tho
harbor this and many previous acci
dents could havo boon prevented.
"All Interests unlto In urging Im
mcdlato removal of tho station to
Chnrloston.
"Superintendent of llfo snvlng Bor
vlco has all dntn and reports as wo
hnvo frequontly urged that this
chnngo ho mndo.
"Plcnso oxpcdlto this matter In tho
Interests of humanity.
"Llfo Saving crow gnllantly bravod

Whon Mnjor J. J. Morrow visited
tho Hay a year ngo, tho need of mov
ing tho station wns thon pointed nut
to him by Dr. McCormnc, Henry
Songstnckoij of tho Port CommlsBlon
nnd others. Ho Informed thorn thnt
tho matter should ho taken up with
tho Dopnrtmont nt Washington In
chnrgo of tho Llfo Saving service
They lind beon previously written
about it but additional letters woro
sent. Nothlu was dono.
In vlow of tho dlsnstor to North
Star No. 1, It Is not llkoly thnt tho
Dopnrtmont can longor dolny making
tho chnngo.
lLET US TALK "iT .OVER ,
WHAT'S tho mnttcr with the Coos Dny Llfo Saving Stntlon? Is It
hoodooed? Is It lnelllclent? Is It suffering from too much red
tnpo? Is tho stntlon located nt the wrong plnco7
All theso questions crowd themselves hurriedly whilo tho thoughts
nnd tenrs of Saturdny evening's terrible tragedy arc still fresh and fear
ful. That thoro Ih something wrong bo me where miiBt bo admitted. Every
opportunity for ronl servlco for tho purpose for which It wns organized
nnd Ib mnintulned becomes another tragedy of tho sea.
Tho Times nnd every thinking person will make duo nllownnco for
tho many ugly Htorlcs thnt nro afloat. Whon hearts nro hot with n
feeling of somo apparent Injustice somewhere in tho schemo of things
stories start quickly. Bnck of all this, howovor, is tho awful actuality
that a gasollno bont, drifting helplcBH to n drendful doom, wont unsuc
cored nnd six lives woro loBt nnd tho Life Snvlng Stntlon hns ngnln be
como n mlsnomor nnd ItB members might bo mummies for nil tho assis
tance thnt was rendered to tho victims of this second nwftil tragedy in
a fow yoarB.
Without accoptlng or giving further currency or credence to tho
worst of tho stories It Is substantially and reliably reported thnt tho
wlfo of ono of tho victims, Mrs. Joo Younkcr looking through a field
glass nnd sousing tho Bltuntlon gnvo tho nlarm to Mr. Dlngham, nnd
nftor telephoning tho Llfo Snvlng Stntlon, ho proceeded In n private boat
and was nenrly at tho scono of tho troublo boforo tho Llfo Saving
crow. It Is roportcd n fnlse stnrt In tho aurf bout nnd n return for tho
power bont caused n dolny thnt might, hnvo Biivcd six lives. This is in
ltsolf n sorlous reflection.
Another woll-foundcd complaint is thnt the stntlon Is locnted too far
from tho points of rcnl danger nnd thnt In enso of troublo it requires
too much tlmo to rench tho scene of difficulty. This Is something tnn
glblo nnd should bo Investigated.
A Llfo Saving Stntlon should bo for tho purposo of rendering assis
tance to thoso In dlBtroBB nnd should bo nB near nB posslblo to any known
points of dnngor.
Tho Coos Dny stntlon Is mnnlfcstly unfortunnto. It is nil right whon
It comes to giving exhibitions of heroism on holiday excursions, but for
rcnl sorvico something seems to be lacking. It in tho duty of somoono
to seo wlint'B wrong.
This second trngedy should not bo permitted to pass without heeding
tho lesson that Jgwrltln tho crlmson jetterB of humnn lives.
