If Coos Day men thought aloud, Doc Strnw would not enjoy tho ex clusive distinction of being tho most profnno mnn in the city. Tho new Port Committee of the Chamber of Couuucrco was Instructu'l to take up tho question of having tho government project here extended so as to make a channel at least 500 feet wide from tho Smith mill to North Dend. It was stated that the Dredge Oregon in tho ordinary ruu of affairs would havo the presont gov ernment project here completed by next fall nnd oven though tho money appropriated to maintain hor is not nil spent by that time, she would probably bo transferred to some oth er point. Somo suggested that tho government should bo asked to mako tho channel In front of Marshfleld 1,000 feet wldo In order to afford it turning basis for vessels but others decided that it would bo unwise to nsk for so much nt presont.

CHAIltMAN WILLIAM GItlMES OK EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OP MAHSI1F1ELD CHAMBER OP COMMERCE NAMES WORKERS. At a meoting of the Mnrshfleld Chamber uf Commerce Inst evening, tho standing committees of tho or ganization for tho ensuing year woie announced by Chairman William Grimes of tho executive committee. In announcing the committees, Mr. Grimes made tho following state ment: "Tho success of any enterprise or organization, whether Indlvdual, coi- porate or legislative, must depend on Its subdivision, mnnugement, cither by Individuals or by committees to accomplish tho work necessary to at tain proper and adequate results for said organization or enterprise. This rulo has been adopted by all govern ing bodies for their guidance ami success, without them chaos, Indiffer ence, lack of Interest and fnlluro must bo tho result, "In nppolntlng the committees for tho work of tho Chnmber of JCom- morco for tho ensuing year, I hnve had tho thoughts heretofore express ed In view, thnt Is, that success In tho work to bo done by this body must necessarily depend upon the work of tho sovornl committees de signated. I have designated the committees nnd selected tho persons to fill the snjnonfterconsultntlonwlth and approval by the President nnd Vice-President of this organization. "Every committee Is of tho utmo.tt Importance to tho work of tho Chnin bor of Commeicc. Each coinmltttoo will bo composed of flvo mombors nnd no member of tho organization will he placed upon moro than one committee, so the work of each com mittee will stand alone for results, nnd there will be no excuse that some member has too much wo k, or that his work on ono committee Is conflicting with tho work of some other committee. In my opinion tho work anil policies designated for each committee should as fnr as pos sible, bo left alone to that commit too nnd tho Piesldent of this organiza tion, who, by tho terms of our by laws 1b nn ex-ofllclo member of nil committees, nnd then only when such committee desires tho co-operntlon or advlco of tho ontlro organization, shall theio ho uny into.foronce.
