Mention wns mndo In Tho Times
yesterday of an appeal by C. A.
Smith, bend of tho C. A. Smith
Lumber nnd Manufacturing com
pnny, to tho United States engineers
for Improvements In tho bnr and
hnrbor. Mr. Smith yesterday sent
tho following flolf-oxplnnatory let
ter to tho engineers:
"In referring to our letter of tho
30th ultimo, nnd confirming the
dnngeroiiB condition of tho outer
end of tho Jotly. I tnko tho liberty
to Herewith enclose a bulletin Is
sued by tho Coos Dny Times this
morning regnrdlng tho disaster to
tho schoonor Osproy nnd tho loss of
rive lives."
Mr. Smith previous loiter to tho
engineers was ns follows:
"Referring to tho public notlco
received through tho U. S. Engin
eers Offlro of Portland ( dated Oct.
7. regarding Coos Dny and Itn Im
provements, permit tis to Btnto that
wo bollovo It Is not only doRlrnblo,
for tho purposo of encouraging and
Inrrcnslng tho navigation In this
bny, but nlso necessary for tho pro
tection of tho work which has al
ready been dono by tho government
nt a largo expense, to tnko Bomo
stops as rapidly as possible to re
build tho outer end of the present
Jotty, known ns tho North Jolty.
Doing, without doubt, altogether too
low nnd nnrrow when originally
built, tho contlnunl action of tho
wntor hns gradually caused It to
wear away nnd settlo so thnt n
vory Inrgo portion Is now bolow tho
surfneo nt extromo low tide.
"Tho second project, classified as
"D" In tho nubile notice referred to,
ns recommended by tho engineers,
without doubt, would provo most
effcctlvo nnd permnncnt In opening
up nnd keoplng open the entrance
to tho Dny. nnd wo bollovo n sec
ond oxnmlnutlon would, without
question of n doubt, cnuso tho en-
Inoers to confirm tho former re
port, nnd urge upon Congrcec
speedy appropriation,
"Another nnd very important
question affecting tho Dny nnd lbs
entrance is tho continual building
up and Increasing of tho sand-spll
between the Dny and tho ocean;
the sand being washed up by tho
contlnunl bwoHi rrom tho xvest Is
drifting and building up tho sand
spit higher nnd higher, considerable
of the sand drifting across Into the
bny and chnnglng tho oxtromo
southeast end thereof. Wo bollovo
that this Bnud-spit Bhould In some
way bo covered by a growth ot
grass and trees to prevent thin
drifting. This, In our judgment, as
stated above, Is a vory Important
question to tho futuro of this bay
nnd as wo understand and bollovo,
could bo remedied nt n compara
tively small cxpciiBc.
"This bny being far tho best op
portunity for n hnrbor as to size,
natural location nnd cheapness ot
necessary Improvements between
Snn Francisco and Columbia rlvor
If not Pugot Sound, with nlmost In
exhaustible resources of tlmbor nnd

tho government Bhould proceed more

Realizing fully tho extent of our

lefl, nnd when, under excitement,
thcro seems to limitation as to
what thoy may do, It Is not only
fitting, but necessary, that tho au
thorities who hnvo control of tho
city, nnd, who nro responsible for
Its proper nnd decent mnnngomont,
Bhould hnvo control of street speech
making In such a manner ns not
to offend tho decency nnd mornls
of 'Itlzens who uso tho streets for
business or plensuro.
In tho city of Portland, It has
boon n common thing to henr a
long-haired ngltntor enst reflections
upon our flag; upon our olllclnls;
upon oilr government; upon our
country, nnd our constitution; so
much so thnt It makes tho blood of

and theso things nro rnmmod down
tho throats of decont cltlzoun by
tho streots ngltntors, who. ns wo
hnvo said, aro peoplo who havo
mado a falluro of everything thnt
thoy havo undertaken In this llfo,
but yet set themselves up as para
gons of virtue and ability.
Whllo freo thought and freo
speech Ib guaranteed under our con
stitution, nnd must bo allowed, yet
whoro It Is of n character to offend
public decency, xvhoro such meetings
nro hold on tho streots of a Inrgo
city so as to Impcdo rrnfflc, It
scorns fitting and propor that tho
authorities of said city should havo
tho right to rogulato such speaking;
to say whoro It should bo allowed;
nnd uiidor what conditions; and so
long as tho authorities nro nob ar
bitrary In tholr decisions, but rog
ulato tho thing with fairness and
Integrity, thoro ought not to bo nny
valid objection to a Inw such ns Is
eontomplated; but, as a mnttor of

ovory decent, falrmlnded citizen, nnd
ns n mnttor or fact, is nusoiuioiy
nnd perfectly constitutional In ovory

This bill was prepared for tho

tho holding of a public meeting In

of over tJOOO population, unless n
