''After five years faithful ser vice, Dr. E. J. Thompson has resigned as pastor of the Presby terian church of Independence In consideration of his age and rather frail health, the elders have accepted the resignation. , While Dr. Thompson does not contemplate taking np work of a pastorate again, he ' will continue in the ministerial' work, supply ing churches as his health will permit.

The Myrtle Point Enterprise has this to say: "The Enterprise said last week that 'Hawley will carry this com munity almost solidly.' G. N. Farrin of Marshfield, writing to the Coast Mail, says this state ment is entirely erroneous.

Anvhow, we are going to fgive him credit for thinking that we had refer ence to the county, when we re ferred simply to this end of it. If Mr. Farrin thinks Hawley won't carry this precinct solidly he will have his eyes opened April 20. We haven't heard of a single Tooze supporter in this precinct and are , inform ed by those who know that Hawley will get a big vote at Coquille and Bandon and not a few at Marsh field.
