Tho following is an interview
with A. B. Daly, of Marshfield,
published in the Oregonian:
“ Our people are looking forward
with great deal of interest to the
railroad survey from Drain toward
San Francisco via Coos Bay on the
Oregon coast The engineering
crops consisting of some 20 men
have been stadilj- at work for over
a year. The lino as surveyed starts
at Drain, and*follows Elk creek to
its confluence with the Umpqua
near Elkton, thence down the north
bank of the Umpqua for 25 miles
to a point below Scottsburg on tide
water. Here the line crosses the
Umpqua at a point called Brandy
Bar. This is an ideal location for a
bridge, as an island lies near the
middle of the river, which at this
point is about G00 feet wide. From
here the projected line follows the
the south bank of the Umpqua to
about a quarter of a mile from the
ocean, where the line strikes south
along the foothills to a point on
Coos Bay opposite North Bend.
Here it is probable a draw bridge
will be located. From North Bend
the line follows the west shore ot
the bay, passing througb Marshfield
and parnlling the Coos Bay Rose-
burg & Eastern Ry., to a point on
Beaver slough, theDce down the
bank of the Coquille river for a dis­
tance of 10 miles, where it crosses
to the south side and follows the
coast. The survey is now complet­
ed as far south as Port Orford.
The indications are pretty strong
that this road will be built. No ef­
fort has been spared to locate the
line on the best ground. In some
instances the line between Umpqua
and North Bend has been relocated
three times
“ The building of this line would
form a valuable outlet to tho Oregon
and California coast, and provides
transportation for immense bodies
of timbers and coal in Douglas,
Ceos and Curry counties. From
the Oregon line south the line will
traverse Del Norte ond Humboldt
counties, rich ia redwood
and
spruce, where a junction could be
made with the Hammond rosd at
Eureka, now owned by the Harri-
man system, which will eventually
be extended to San Francisco. This
is on the the theory that this survey
is being made in behalf of the
Southern Pacific. If the Burvey is
being made in behalf of the Santa
Fe system, a junction could be
formed at Eureka with the exten­
sion of the California A Northwest­
ern now being extended from
, Willets to Eureka. Work is now
being pushed on both ends of this
extension simultaneously from Wil-
lets and Eureka. This gap will
probably be pretty well closed this
year.
nearly. 400 miles it becomes pretty
near a logical sequence to any rea­
sonable mind that a city of consid­
erable commercial importance must
be located on the southern Oregon
coast, rich in coal, lumber and ag­
ricultural possibilities. The port of
Coos Bay is the only point in the on-
tire Pacific coast between San Diego
and the British Columbia line where
a steamer loading with the products
of the country can secure an ade­
quate supply o f reasonably good
fuel at a moderate cost, mined with­
in a stone’s throw of the docks.
This is anad vantage that will become
more valuable as developments pro­
gress. Railroads traversing the
Oregon coast will be able to receive
cheap fuel, a very vital element of
operating expense. North Bend
has a payroll of something like $35,-
000 a month. It is still growing
and is the leading manufaotari ng
town between Eureka and Astoria.

The “ passing o f Bryan’ ’ at St.
Louis was not as ghostly and spect­
acular as some anticipated. Death
by newspaper is seldom very perma­

that injures a man; it is what he
is unscathed.
A woman out in Minnesota, aged
98, has got a new set of teeth. She
fed herself on a teaspoonful of pow­
dered oystershelis every day. And
it worked.
But one must be 98
years old to have the experiment a
complete success.
A Newspaper man in the Philip
