Good Roads
Every enterprising citizen is an
exponent of good roads, because one
of the main features of the develop
ment ol any country is in its roads.
In behalf of good roads in Coos
county something should surely be

l'here is enough .money tx ing spent
to build the proper kind of roads
throughout the county. Of course
this could not be accomplished at
once but the proper method is to
build a lit*le.good toad every year
and keep adding to that instead of
merely
'‘patching up” the bail
places, and go on from year to year
with no better roads than we hav<
ha i the previous year, wlii e tiie
people's money is being spent.
Along this line the Myrtle Point
Enterprise says:
The Enterprise, along with a great
number of Coos county people, has
believed that through the hiring of ;
competent road building expert and
engineer, would be the best and
surest means of getting the desired
results. The department or agri
culture maintains a road building
bureau that, too, could be brought
into requisition to help in
opment of Coos county, It is folle
to continue to experiment
that have long proven or
by government experts, and the aid
of the department should be sought
in attempting lo arriv“ at the correct
solution of the road problem here.
That it is a knotty one all will admit,
but it can and will be solved to the
advantage of good ro ids and the
taxpayers’ pocketbooks. A govern
ment geologist has said that the best
toad building rock is to be found on
the other side of Camas mountain
and the second best rock is found in
abundance at Sugarloaf. With such
materials at hand it is only necessary
to properly apply them to use ft r
Coos county to have as good road
as any county in tiie country.

Port Commission and Taxes done to better the present conditions
The only objection to the port
commission that we have so far
heard is on the ground of taxation,
and the VERY FEW who are op-
posing the commission are doing so
on the excessive taxation-cry. Now
as a matter of fact there is absolutely
no argument in this - theory, for in
reality it will be no tax, because it
will bring ten dollars in return for
every one dollar paid out. Some
may say, how can this be? 1 he
answer is simple, the money w ill be
returned in cheaper freight rates,
and the farmer gets as great bene
fits as anyone, because he has an
opportunity to get his produce to
market so much cheaper than be
now does, and consequently has a
greater gain.
As we stated in last week’s R e
CORDER a Port of Coquille River
will also help to equalize the taxes
and make the timber holdtr pay a
higher tax, because his timber will
be more valuable as a result of the
reduction of freight rate on lumber.
It is true, the merchant will be
benefitted by a port commission,
because he can get his freight
cheaper, but at the same time, lu
will, as a rule give his customers the
benefit of the lower rate, so th<
general public, including the farmet
is thereby benefitted.
Another feature of a port commis
sion is the fact that it is a permanent
institution, one built for all time,
and it is not something from which
we will reap benefit for a short time
only, but which will be a profit pay
ing investment to the public as long
as the public continues to exist.
The port commission is more im
portant to the watershed of tlu
Coquille river at this time than any
thing else that could possibly b<
secured We are all extremelv
desirous of a railroad, but lhe port
commission is more essential that)
the railroad for the latter is sure t<>

means of keeping down the railroad
freight rates, even after the raihi ati
comes, and another advantage 01 a
port is the fact that we will alwav
be able to command terminal freight
rates on the railroad after it arrive-
In fact there is no manner of argu
ment that can be brought up that
will in anyway show that a port com
mission for this watershed would not
be beneficial, that cannot successfully
be refuted in the many points in its
favor.
We speak in this way, because it
is apparent that there are a few
people, and good people too, that
are opposed to the port, but the\
