•THURSDAY
T hanksgiving day was bright
nnd balmy, a more ideal day could
not be imagined. If there was noth
ng else for which Bandonians
might be thankful, the fine day was
: ufficient cause for giving thanks,
but there are many re sons why we
should be thankful.
The general
conditions in the business world are
gladly looking upward, people in
this section are enjoying good health
and prosperity, and, in fact, there
. re a thousand reasons why we
should all have given thunks on last
Thursday, and from what we can
earn, the day was generally observed
in a fitting manner.
T he :ity election of Bandon pas
sed off quietly and the race was very
close, the fact that there was one
more ballot in the box than there
were voters registered left the af
fair in a rather awkward condition
but after a recount the first count
was found to be right, and while
there is considerable. dissatisfaction,
on the part of some, there is nothing
t > do but abide by the verdict, as
die law makes no provision for
another election. The newly eiect-
ed officers are all ex< ellent, progress
ive men and together with the hold
over coun il and other officers there
is every reason to believe that the
city will move forwaid at a more
rapid rate than ever before. Let us
all put our shoulders to the wheel
for a greater Bandon.

Second Class Matter.
December 3, 1908
a man of force, of considerable mor
al courage, is progressive in his
ideas and is yet in his prime, none
of which Senator Allison was, says
the Portland Journal and the remark
only shows the extreme ignorance
or purposely misrepresentation of
the writer. Allison has always been
one of the main lights in the sen
ate, and for years was termed the
“wise man of the senate.” He was
so useful in fact that he was twice a
formidable candidate for president,
and each time received a large sup
port. No important move was ever
made by the senate without the
opinion and sanction of Mr. Allison,
while Cummins is a strong man in
many ways it will take years of train
ing before he will be as valuable as
Allison. The Journal space writer
would do well to look into the real
facts of the case before he makes
wild and idiotic statements.
S uch a man is entitled to no con
sideration whatever—and, yet, how
can one help feeling sorry for him?
He made a wonderful canvass. All

counselor whose advice was worth a
cent, constantly surrounded and
pestered by a lot of toadies and
cheap skates, practically unaided on
the stump except by Judge Paiker.
whom he had derided, he fought
like a giant against tremendous
odds, never losing heart or temper
or command of the splendid elo
quence, which is his one great gift.
We have no doubt that he will seem
to bear his dissapointment philo-
sophically, but the frightful mental
and physical strain upon his nerves
must have left its indelible mark,
and it will be a marvel if he regains
his buoyancy or even avoids a com
plete breakdown in spirit if not in
body. |A more winning personality

glad to believe that we are but one

ization of commercial clubs, and the
idea should be supported by every
Coos county citizen
who is
desirous of seeing the county pro
gress, and it goes without saying
that every intelligent man is not
only desirous, but enthusiastic over
the development of the county. Any
man who opposes progression is a
drone and a menace to society.
There are many important ques
tions that might be taken np by a
county commercial club. For one
thing we might mention good roads.
This paper has always b en an ad
vocate of the good roads theory.
Then there is the question of better
transportation, If the county was
organized, we could do more for
the betterment of our two harbors.
We could go to the committee i.i
congress with a united front and
that would wield a big influence.
Then we would be in better condi
tion to negotiate for a railroad,
which is at the present time the
greatest need of Southwestern Ore
gon. We should be represented
with a good display at the Seattle
fair, and there are dozens of other
things that might be mentioned in
this connection. Why not get to
gether and do away with the pet' y
jealousies that have encumbered
progress, and work for the good of
the whole county.
