Semi-WeeHly HßrQld FRIDAY, DEC. 16, 1904. A t out the Fair. Arago, Oregon, Dec. 8, 1904. In your issue of the 6th, inst., I notice the follow ing: “ As a matter of course the time in which the Push Club had to work was so short that they gave up the St. Louis fair and saved their money to put in on the Lewis and Clark Exposition.’’ The old saying that a poor ex cuse is better than none applies to this. The fact of the matter is the Coos County Push Club was or ganized in time and was making every effort to have Coos county represented at the St. Louis Expo sition. The reason it failed was on account of the indifference and lethargy of the people of Coos county generally. There was little or no encouargement. The county papers generally gave valuable assistance They kept the public informed, but withal it cre ated no enthusiasm. The club sent for 2500 buttons to raise a fund to partly defray the expenses of an exhibit The price of a button was 50 centB and entitled a purchaser to membership in the club. When the buttons were put on the market one of the leading papers published at Marshfield ridiculed them. This is mentioned simply to show what the club had to contend with. There were only about three hundred of the buttons sold. The sawmills of the county de serve favorable mention. They vol unteered to furnish the lumber for a Coos county pavillion. The Lew is and Clark commission promised to forward the same to St. Louis and erect it without expense to the county. The pavillion without an exhibit was of little use. The ex hibit failed to materialize. The proceeds from the buttons sold was used to pay for them and the purchase of a number of glass exhibit jars in which the club has some choice apples preserved. E d it o r H e r a l d : The county court appropriated $1,000 (by virtue of a law for the purpose) to advertise the resources of Coos county at the St. Louis and Louis and Clark Exposition. OwiDg to the St. Louis failure, none of the appropriation has been used. The Coos County Push Club was organized to secure an exhibit for and advertise the resources of the county at both the St. Louis and Lewis and Clark Expositions. Its active members (about eight all told) devoted their time and paid their own expenses in attending meetings at Mnrshfiold and Coquille to work the matter up. The writer is confident that they will willingly unite and give ethers an opportun ity to gain n little experience in such matters. Coos county’s por tion of the $500,000 appropriated by the legislature for the Lewis and Clark Exposition is about $12,000, The justice, pro or con, of this tax cannot now be considered. The question now to consider is: “ How can Coos county receive a benefit from said lax?” The only sensible solution to that question in the opinion of the writer is to voluntarily tax ourselves to raise u fund sufficient to make a creditable exhibit. It will take money and push to do it. If the people of Coos county desire to be classed as a progressive community it behooves them to get into the push without delay. Shall we do it? A n A ctive M em her o r ty P ush C lub . the C oos C oun Notice Notice is hereby given that all Coos county wnrrants (on General Fund) endorsed prior to Jan. 1, 1903, will be paid on presentation at my office in Coquille City, Ore gon.
