Semi-Weekly Herald FRIDAY, JAN. 13, 1905. Appropriation Aaked. Delegation» representing Marsh, field, North Bend, Myrtle Point and Coquille waited upon the county court Wednesday in behalf of an appropriation by the county for a Lewis and Clark exposition fund. Since the state of Oregon has ap propriated a half million of dollars to this fair, it is now up to each county to bustle up a good exhibit so as to reap the proper benefits of the money expended. However, money is not all that will be re quired. A certain amount of indi vidual effort will be required to make the showing that must be made in this instance. This is an opportunity of a lifetime, and all possible should be made of it. The bay side was represented by E. L. C. Farrin, H. Sengstaoken, I. S. Kaufman, J. R. Blake, Thos. Vigars, J. J. Burns, E. M. Rummell, L J. Simpson and Chas. M. Sain; Myrtle Point by J. C. Roberts, W. E. Pike and 8 . D. Pulford; Coquille by J. J. Stanley, W. C. Chase and W . T. Kerr. The amount asked was but $3000, which is supposed to be only a starter, there being much more promised by individual contribu tions. It is a good move and should be followed up as closely as pos sible. There is no good reason why Coos should not loom up with an exhibit that would do credit to aDy county in the state. Tbe “Coos Bay Harbor." The above caption is the title of the new paper which has been started at North Bend to fill the vacancy made by the suspension of the Evening Post of that place. Tbe first issue has reached our desk and is what we pronounce as a very presentable sheet and reflects great credit upon its editor, Mr. Sain. It is a six-column quarto, well filled with spicy local and interesting write-ups of various objects of im portance on the bay, as well as the full contents of a circular Boon to be issued concerning North Bend, giv ing a short history of tbe town as well as n description of the numer ous enterprises and industries. He was Entitled to Vote. Here is a question addressed to the Portland Oregonian by a yoter of Riverton precinct and the answer received: The Oregonian, Portland, Oregon: Was a voter who swore his vote in at the June election entitled to vote at the November election, there being no blanks at hand to swear him again. As answered: “ He was entitled to vote. If the election officials had no blanks they should have sworn the elector with out a blank according to law. T he O r e g o n ia n . Salem, Or., Jan. 10.—Three bills that bid fair to set the fire of dis cussion blaring were introduced in the House this forenoon, out of a total of 34. Prime among them is a flat-salary bill by Kay of Marion, in which the stipend of the Gov ernor is fixed at $5000 a year, tbe Secretary of State at $4500, the State Treasurer the same, and the Attorney-General at $3000. The bill provides that if any of these officers fail to turn over any of the fees collected by virtue of their offices they shall be guilty of em bezzlement and punished accord ingly. * •#» - (Coot Bay Newa.) K u y k e n d a ll W in s P residen cy. Salem, Or , Jan. 11.—Senator Kuykendall, of Lane county, won out in the contest for the presidency o f the Senate, being elected Tues day afternoon, with the support of every Republican senator. The Carter forces surrendered upon receiving promises of liberal treatment from the vutors, and to night all is harmony and good will, where last night all was discord and bitterness. In the final ballot, Carter voted for Kuykendall and Kuykondall voted for Carter. Democratic Sen ator Smith offered a motion by which the election of Kuykendall was made unanimous. Both houses are now organized and ready for business. The first order of business was the election of permanent officers, which resulted as follows: Chief Clerk, 8 - L. Moorhead, of Lane; Assistant, E. L. C. Farrin, of Coos; Calendar Clerk, F. A. Turner, of Marion; Reading Clerk, Frank Motter, of Multnomah; Sergeant- at-Arms, G P Terrell, of Marion; Doorkeeper, ffm . Smith, of Clack amas; Mailing Clerk, J. E. Barnett, of Wasco. Frank Middleton was chosed to act as assistant Chief Clerk until the arrival of the band- some, talented and popular young Marshfield attorney, who is now en- route here from Marshfield os fast as he can come. Tbe Governor's message will be read Thursday in joint convention at 11 a. ra., according to a resolu tion introduced by Linthicum, of Multnomah.
