"When l was In San Francisco, soiuo of tho loiters and messages and newspaper commeutH that touched us on what tho delegation to Washington would accomplish wore very discouraging and some on Coos Hay even went so fur ns to Intimate thnt thoro was no use In going to Washington. "While In tho Flood building nuo day talking with C .1. Mlllls. ho asked mo what I would do If the others derided not to go. " 'Why. I will go alone.' I re plied, 'l have my transportation and also enough of my own money In my pocket to pay my other ex penses. I am going to Washington even If 1 have to go alouo. I will have Congressman llawley Intro duce mo to the engineers nnd tell my own story In my way about tho needs of Coos Hay. Tho way I size It up Is this; Thin hoard is select ed by tho goneral-lu-chlof and It Is their duty to Improve tho wntor ways of the United Statos. Whon a delegation comes from such a groat distance and presents n mat tor before thorn such as tho Coos Hay delegation ci.n do, there Is no question In my mind but that we will got a hearing nnd get rosultx. Hecnuso tho hoard of ouglueors would not he Justified In turning down tho urgent requests of a del egation who represent tho people or Coos Hay. especially whon tho harbor Is In such serious and dan geroiiH condition.
