ANEW evolution confronta this community today. Coos Day has
reached tho period of Its history when tho transition must bo mado
from a groat aggregation of tlndlvldunls and thplr enterprises to an
organized community In which nn unselfish Intelligent that can look to
tho future shall govern. Dut It Is appalling how Httlo tho public acorn to
reallzo tho nood of this organization. A city Is Just n great civic cor
poration, organized for tho bonoflt of Its citizens In tholr homes and bUBl
noss enterprises. And a groat city that properly serves tho wolfaro of its
homes and tho prosperity of Its citizens can no moro bo croatod with
out Intelligent civic co-oporatlon that takes Into account in ndvanco tho
things that must bo than a grent building can bo constructed with
out a plan or a groat business organized without systom.
Yet thnt is exactly what Coos Day has been trying to do and what Is
worse, oome men who havo shown' tholr conBtructlvo ability by what the
have dono with their prlvato enterprises havo placed thomsolves out of
harmony with communal co-opcrntlon, a condition of affairs of moro
than vital Importance
It la tlrao to turn ovor a now leaf. It is tlmo for tho people of Coos
Day, regardless of past differences, to got together. It has boon said that
the history of any Nation can be road in tho biographies of its groat
men, and equally Is this truo of our great cities. Such questions as har
bor Improvements, parks, public boulevards and tho complox nnd In
volved rnllway nltuntlon thnt Is now perplexing tho community aro
questions to bo settled by appoal to vox popull, but thoy nro probloma to
bo worked out by our bualncaa mon of Integrity nnd ability and then
bdqueathed to Its citizens as an Inheritance from tho mon who will
mako tho Cooa Day of tho future. Tho ono great problom pressing for
prompt consideration Is the railway proposition.
Thero Is much that Is commendable and some statements that aro
BUbJoct to criticism In tho semi-official announcement of Gonornl Man-
hvr . j. .Minis as puousnod in Tno Times last Friday evening.
His assertion that ho didn't come to Coos Day with any club or with
a chip on his shoulder, but to find out whether tho people wanted a rnll
way and If they woro willing to extend td tho Southern Pacific tho samo
co-operation thnt thoy woro willing to extend to any railroad, manlfosts a
spirit of fairness that warranto, according to his statement, an Impartial
and unprejudiced hearing.
The Times Is certain thnt Mr. Mlllls will fln'd no genoral opposition
ir projudlco against tho Southern Pnclflc In this community. Thero may
bo Individual Instances of resontmont nt what Is allegod to bo tho dila
tory tactics of his corporation, but tho gonornl feeling on Cooa Day Is
ono of cordlnl welcomo to any man or set of men who aro In a position
to aid In the development of Its great resources.
Rcsentmont and rovongo hnvo no plrtcc In a commercial conference.
Business s buslnoss. Coos Dny neods a railway Coos Day needs tho
Southern Pacific and tho Southern Pnclflco needs Coos Day. Tho South
ern Pacific Is not a philanthropic corporation. It la not mnklng prepara
tions to expend tho 19,000,000 that Mr. Mlllls mentions, morely for tho
bonoflt of tho pooplo of this community. Tho railway company Is plan
ning this entorprlso of tho extension of Its lino on a buslnoss basis. Thoy
fchould bo met In a spirit of fairness nnd cordial co-oporatlon. Thero is
nothing In tho exigencies of tho sltuntlon thnt should occasion excite
mont. It is a innttcr to bo sottled oqultnbly ami without bludgoons or
blttorness.
Coos Day should bo nnd Tho Times thinks Is willing to oxtend tho
snmo Inducomonts nnd co-oporntton to tho Southorn Pnclflc that It would
to any other railway Booking ontranco horo or to any big buslnoss cor
poration whoso coming would wnrrant granting of concessions. This
(loos not mean that Cooa Dny Is willing to deliver to tlio Southern Pa
cific a quit claim deed to its harbor or to permit tho railway to brldgo
tho Day If It will bo detrimental to our development nnd our commerce.
Tho bridging of tho Dny Is tho most Important mutter roforrod to
In Mr. Mlllls' statement. This Is a subject that will rcqulro vory care
ful and thorough Invostlgntlon. It should not nnd ennnot bo determined
nnd docldcd without careful consideration. It will rcqulro Bclontlflc
knowledgo of conditions nnd oxport Information to roach a satisfactory
conclusion. Thoro should bo no hasty decision. Thero should bo no
hnsty action oltlier way. Tho spirit of fairness which Mr. Mlllls rcqucM
for tho rnllway should bo cqunlly nppllcablo to tho pcoplo of Coos Day.
Largo Interests aro Involved. Tho engineers of tho United Stntos War
Department must bo consulted. Tho big Interests of tho C. A. Smith
Lumber & Manufacturing Comrmn. nro to bo considered. Tho C. A.
Smith corporation Is nt present tho largest slnglo factor in tho do
ovlopmcnt of tho resources of this section. Thoy havo Ihvcstod mllllona
hbro and theso Investments and their grent Industry should not bo Jeop
ardized by hnsty action of any kind. It Is, ns Mr. Mlllls hna said, "a plain
bualncaa proposition for both aides." Let us accept It as such nnd net
accordingly.
Wo should not permit our pressing need of a rnllway to load us to
a sacrifice that wo will regrot later. Nelthor should thoro. bo opposition
that Is without rhymo or roason and with moro sontlment than senso.
Tho samo law and logic appllos to any franchises thnt may bo
asked. Tho Southorn Pacific should bo granted Just what would bo
glvon any other railway bo given what Is fair no moro, no less.
Thoro Is only ono course to tako and that Is to ropoat locally what
has boon tho early history of ovory groat nation. A century and a third
ago, whon tho struggling Amorican colonies woro confronted with prob
lems that throatonod their very exlstonco, a hundrod men volunteered
to nssumo tho responsibilities ol mnklng a now nation. Tbo result of
this volunteer sorvlco of ability, Integrity, nnd splondld purposo was tho
foundation of tho Amorican nation,
Looking back to theso mon today, wo seo them In their npothoosls.
Thon they woro Just rudo farmers, country lawyors and unknown bus
nesa mon mon who wore mado by what they dared to do. Wo hoar It
said overywhero that a dozen yoara henco Coos Day will havo a population
of 40,000 or 50,000. Is this to como about through somo unknown law
of social evolution that has novor h Intelligence elsewboro? Or is It to
como about through tho efforts and intolllfonce of civic patriotism and
co-operation? It can nover como otberwlso than b tho latter, and this
Is tho hour for tho rovolllo call which shall assemble tho mon of Cooa
Day who aro willing to tako upon themselves tho responsibility of meet
ing tho Issues today; tho men who aro willing to load this city forward
to Its future greatness. Thla aort of effort may not bo appreciated to
day, but It will bo canonlzod horenfter. And aftor all tho highest typo
of citizenship, and that which ia distinctively American Is that which Is
willing to forego tho honors of tho present day for tho wolfaro of tho
coming generation.
