OW that passongor travol In and
out of Coos Day Is nn actuality
pcoplo of this locality recall
tho efforts of C. .1. MIIHs In bring
ing about tho conditions which tiro
Inaugurated today. Mr. MIUIs was
formerly superintendent nt this
'point. Ho wns always a friend of
fCoos Day and nftor ho was promoted
to tho position of assistant to Presi
dent Sproulo ho did n great deal to
further tho Interests of this locality.

mako this community a cleaner, bol
ter and moro beautiful placo in which
to llvo nnd mako a homo.
Tho coming of tho rallwny nnd
tho spirit of civic prldo marks tho
boglnning of an era of progress nnd
prosperity that will mako Cooo Day
ono of tho beauty spots nnd great
commorclal contors of tho Pacific
coast.

forts of Mr. Mlllls now that tho rail
toad is completed. It is a matter of
regrot that ho Is not hero today to
recolvo tho personal nssurauco of tho
appreciation that It Is felt is his duo.
lOlt several weoks this mattor
- has been dlscti3sed by well
- known men of Mnrshfleld. Most
of tho people hardly renllzo what a
poor shapo Marshflcld Is In, because I
they are always figuring on ns little
expense as possible and looking out
for number one.
The plan of making tlio city beau
tiful Is wise and very good. To do
this would increase tho population
greatly and this h one of tho things
we need. Having heard this talked
about bo much, I thought I would
express my thoughts on tho subject.
What tho city needs tho most aro
good highways' and a Inrgo park, so
the children could play In safety
from tie utttos and other vehicles.
Kront street should bo graded
down and the holism lowered. It
should nlso bo paved tho cntlro
length. Tho city should pnBS an
ordinance to tho effect that all
buildings built hero after this should
bo mndo of brick or Htono.
The property owners should clear
their lots and paint their houses,
also plant somo flowers or grccn3
of some kind In their front and bnck
yards.
Tho streets have n great denl to
do with tho looks of a city. If
these aro kept clean, it would nlso
Iniprovo Mnrshflold very much.

bo only a minor Inconvenience Thoro
may bo delays at times. Thoro navu
boeu dolays boforo this on other
ronds. Thoro aro delays on old roads
frequently. Hut tho Southern Pacific
has not spout ton million dollars to
build this road to Coos Day without
boliiK propnred to rondor sorvlco. And
It nlso menus that It's ovontual ox
tension to Euiokn and San Francisco
is an assured (ortalnty.
.lust roinomhor this, Tho road Is
built and tho trains are riiuulni; uud
Coos Day Is on tho map of tho world.
Don't bo pessimistic any longer. It
thoro was any lingering doubt it
was dissipated when the first train
pulled nut this morning.
Wo aro no longor (soluted. All
wo havo to do Is to walk to tho depot,
purchaso n ticket, get aboard n trt'ln
riding land In Eugeno or Portland.
It doesn't seem posolblo to those
of us who havo waited so long.
It Is truo, novortholPSB. Wo aro
at last discovered, and wo should bo
a very happy pooplo.
Deforo long the community will bo
gin to feel the iufluonco of tho coin
ing of tho road. Cooh Dny and Coos
county and In fact all Southwcstorn
Oregon cannot but reap large returns
from tho establishment of tho iiqw
train servlco.
It is a glorious day for this dco
Hon. We should all rojolco!
Wo do.
