Good Roads For Coos County
THERE will ho n meeting ht the Odd Fellows' Hall In Mnrshfleld
tomorrow ovenlng that Is of great Importance to every resident of
this city. It is a meeting of the Coos County Good Roads Associa
tion to secure a more active Interest In tho construction of good roads In
this county. Every man on Coos Hay should ho there. If you can't
get Iu show by your presence that you are Interested in tho movement.
Hotter public roads Is ouo of tho crying needs of tho entire country and
especially In Coos County, -where tho crying need has become a weep
ing and walling necessity. In other parts of the country tho fight for
good roads hns been going on for soma time, but hero wo have been
Indifferent.
To secure Immediate results along this lino it Is first necessary to es
tablish a local pride and n progressive spirit In this movement In tho
community. Thnt Is tho purpose of the meeting tomorrow evening and
Tho Times congratulates President Morrison on his activity and enterprise
Iu promoting this meeting.
Road making is a science. It Is also an Investment, nnd an nssct
to the towno and cities as well as the farm lnnds adjoining. Whllo
something tins been done in Coos County, thoro Is yet a great deal more
to bo done. Our County Court has been liberal In tho mutter of machin
ery and In encouraging the building of roads, but It has neon handi
capped by lack of system. Great responsibility rests upon tlio Individuals,
and the community. If there Is no pride and no desire for better menus
of travel, then there will he no development. I'llces of farming lauds
have advanced more rapidly than road building has developed, and un
less more attention Is glvon to tho highways, there will bo a deteriora
tion in values.
Our rord laws may not bo perfect, and doubtlesH can bo improved
itpnu. but If rightly applledwlth a little grit and determination Coos
County will develop" more rapidly in the future than lu tho past. Every
mini nnd woman Interested In the future f this section should secure If
possible, a copy of these laws, study them, talk thum over with tho
uelgl'bors.nnd then go to work nnd build good roads.
Coino out tomorrow night nnd

no legislation through thnt ho
wishes nt tills session of Congress
nnd lntonds to fight tho 'tnft forces

sldo I called on Murdock, Campboll,

Identified ono payment of $5 In

It wns reported today that j

C. A. Sohlbrodo yostorday receiv
ed n letter from Judge Harris of
Eugene, announcing that' ho would
appoint V. E. Wnttors of North
Rend, receiver for tho Kinney prop
erties Just as soon iih ho recolved
tho papers In tho tnSo, from County
Clerk Watson nt Coqullle. Copies
of the letter wore also sent to the
othor attorneys Interested lu the
Kinney litigation.
Judgo Harris' letter wns In ro
spouso to ouo from Judgo Sehlbredo
lu behalf of .Major Kinney urging
thnt tho action bo taken. Iu IiIh
letter Mr. Sehlbredo pointed out
that tho Wllsoy peoplo had boon
dickering for several months with
out doing anything definite, thnt ho
nnd Major Kinney lind spent two
months with them In Portland, that
thoy had postponed action from
Juno l to Juno It! without gottlug
anything mora dofluito mid again
It had waited.
Ho pointed out thnt theso delays
wero now gottlng dnngorous to tho
Intorest of Mr. Klnnoy nnd somo
of his creditors. Ho snld that tho
Songstacken Judgment would bo
foreclosed within sixty days iinlosa
It waB rodeomed. This Judgment
covors 1C0 acres of South Inlot land
and tlio Klnnoy wntorfront property
at Empire. To nllow It to go for
tho Seugstacken Judgmont, Mr,
Sohlbredo pointed out, would moan
a loss of at least $20,000 to Mr.
Klnnoy.
Furthernioro ho pointed out that
the District Attornoy was about to
proceod with tho tax sales of prop
erty which would Includo a lot of
Kinney's holdings. Theso sales
when niado cannot bo set nsldo or
tho property rodeomed.
Mr. Sehlbredo stated that unless
tho receiver had somo llttlo tlnio

to care ror tliem. Ho stated that
It a weok or so boforo tho Judg
ments wero about to go to fore
closure, tho Wllsoy peoplo should
step In and off or to tnito tho Kinney
property at a reduced fl&uro, saying
thoy would take up tho aongstnekon
Judgment If $20,000 was knocked
off tho Kinney price, Major Klnnoy
would bo almost helpless to protect
nlmself or his creditors.
Whethor tlio Wllsoy Intorests,
through Walto and Hammond, will
again try to stay tho appointment
of a receiver Is not known, but
unless tho deal Is nbsolutoly closod,
It Is not exjipctod that Judgo Harris
will grant a furthor dolay,
Judgo Hammond loft yestorday on
