Mr. Blnrham Is deeply In earnest. And
la ready to back his Judgment with ma

work to organise the undertaking;. He
said today:.
."It does not matter if ths CoqulUs

talked to on this subject, both at TCo
qullle and In Portland, are substantial

must be met by a boat. .
The people of Coqullle country num
ber about $,000. and they have many
great ' reaouroea. Including dairying,
coal, lumber, fancy woods, woolen man
ufacture a, broom handles, matchwood
and white cedar for sash and doors.
They ars paying outrageous freight
charges and cannot continue to do busi
ness under the present conditions, aa
ths developments In neighboring ports

tion Is surs to shut ..them out They
must hare relief from freight charges
