D evoted to the m aterial and scoial a ¿addin g o f the Ooqaillo Valley yartionlarly and o f Coos Ooaaty generally. Subscription, per year, in advance, $1.60 Voids lls Deeds- Saloin, Nov. 20.—(Special.)— The proceedings for the creation of 100,000 acros of “ base” in Eastern Oregon, mode through the Oregon ian dispatches from Baker City, dis close the further fact that the State of Oregon has entered upon a policy of attempting to avoidits own deeds by using, as "base, ’ lands which it has already sold. If the state shall continue its present course regard ing mineral base, titles to hundreds of tracts of school lands heretofore sold hy tho state will be rendered unsound and hereafter no man can claim title to school land through the mere fact that he has a deed from the stute. As it is commonly expressed, the state lias begun sell ing its land twice— llrst selling the land in place at $1 25 per acre, and then peimitting base huntees to con demn the laud as mineral; wnere- upon the state renounces its claim to the lxnd, relinguishcs it to the Government, selects other land in lieu of it and sells the lieu land to another purchaser. The first pur chaser is ousted from possession and given back his $1 25 per acre, with interest at 6 per cent. “If a private individual should do what the state is doing, he would be branded as a fraud,” Said a prom inent man yesterday, who has bad considerable to do with state land matters. If the state is to continue the policy now entered upon, it should at once give notice to the general publio that any man who accepts a convoyaneo of school land based upon a deed from the state must do so at the risk of being ousted by the slate at some later time, unless ho knows beyond question that there is no mineral upon the land. White Ants and Hemlock. R. H. Folger, formerly a Port land merchant, but now a Manila business man, is on the Coast for a short visit. In speaking of the out look for homlojk, Mr. Folger said: "The army in the Philippines has been using hemlock lumber for the past throe years. For a year and a half they have used a large amount of it, in ihe eroction of quarters, and there is some of it sold on the Manila markets. Tho result is, it has been ascertained, that it is the only soft wood that will withstand the attacks of the white ant, or wood- eating ant, as it is commonly called. One of the first buildings erected with hemlock lumber was in San Miguel district of Munilu. Tkak was severnl yeai s ago, and today it is in ns good a state of preservation as it was the day it was put up. In fact, it seems to stand the weather better than any other clnss of soft lumbor. These ants infest all parts of the island in millions and live on rotten and soft woods. They bore into tho lumber in a thousand places and it is but a short time until the board is worth nothing an 1 has no supporting strength. The army sought to get lumber that would re sist these attacks and homlock was tried with the result that there will bo a largo nmonnt of this class of lumber used there in the future.— Timborman. Robbed Train And Made Sate escape. t ------ Davenport, la. Nov. 22.—Train No. 11 westbound, on tho Rock Is land Railroad, was held up at 11:30 o ’clock last night throe miles west of this city by masked bandits, who cut oft tho express nud baggage firs, forced the engineer to run two miles up the track, blow up tho through express safe with dynamite and escaped with their booty. The amount obtained from the express oar is not known, but as this train generally carries a heavy express shipment, it is presumed the sum was considerable. - ___ V -l-> L. E.

All over the United States and in fact everywhere but Coquille Valley, football is hailed with much favor and reigns supreme tn its soa- son of tho year. Now are we to be loft out of this great sport just for the laok of interest and good spirit in tho game? No, not fora moment. We have good sport here in tho summer playing baseball, why not have it in tho winter by plaving football? W e heroby appeal to tho business men of *lie town to try and create some interest in the great game? Why not offer a cup or medal or a prize to be awarded to tho winners of a series of as many games as eau be arranged for this season. You will not be the losers by this favor w e ask, for if tbe games can be ar ranged for it will bo necessary for each player to have a suit and such other things iu the football lino as will be necessary. Business men can order the goods and we will buy them and in this way create public spirit and interest in the game. There is some ‘ ilk of a game Thursday, Nov. 27th, between John son’s mill hands and a team selected here in Coquille. Let them oomo, the town is ready and up to any game of sport and good spirit. If this gomes comes oft 25 cents will be charged gentlemen, cbildren 15 cents and ladies free. Sixty per cent to the winners and forty to tho losers. The gate receipts can be put to the good purpose o f buying tho necessary equipments for each team. The teams or businoss men will not lose but gain by pushing the good thiDg along.
