“Because the League of Nations is
everlastingly for the world’s hope of
peace, I am for it,” said William Jen
nings Bryan in addressing an audi
ence at Myrtle Point just twenty
years ago this weak. It was the first
visit the Great Commoner had made
to this section of Oregon and it was
accurately estimated that 1700 peo
ple of Coos county heard Bryan in
Marshfield, North Bend, and'Myrtle
Point during his two day visit here

very pleasant surprise from out of a
clear sky. After the talks on the
Home were over Brother Gilkey
got to his feet and bowled us ever.
His statement was something like
this: "Brothers, my partner, Brother
Kelley and myself are Eagles at heart
and down in our place of business
we have one of the finest collections
of relics pertaining to the early his
tory of Coos county. We spent about
a month gathering this collection and
in it 'Will be found articles appertain
ing to the growth of Coos county from
the early fifties to the present time,
including handmade false teeth,
chairs, guns, bear traps, bull yokes;
in fact, almost anything that could
be mentioned is there. And it is our
desire at this time to donate this
collection Intact, to the Eagles lodge
with the understanding that the
Eagles can keep same where it is as
long as they see fit”
At this time I would like to ask
all Eagles who have relics pertain
ing to the early history of Coos coun
ty to take them down to Brother Gil
key and Kelley’s place of business, at
the same time giving them the record
of where they were made, by whom
and when. In fact, the more records
we have, the more interesting these
antiques prove to be.
Don’t forget tonight is social night
and I understand the committee is
giving a party for the ladies’ drill
team. I can not find out what they
have up their sleeve for entertain
ment but believe me you, I’ll be there
when the bell rings, and I hope to see
you there, too.

gross, his talk here dealt with
those principles and concepts Which
today have been discarded.
Imagine hie embarrasment ware he
to know of the brutal onslaught on
China by the Japanese, the resurrec
tion of the German empire, the con
quering of Ethiopia by the Italians
and the world more heavily girded
than ever before for another war-
just twenty years later.
“The first question before the
American people is whether they
want war or peace and the League of
Nations,’’ said Bryan blinking in the
warmth of a Coos sun at the fair
grounds in Myrtle Point, “breathes
the spirit of the Prince of Peace. We
do not want an alliance with France
—we want the league.”
On another issue, Bryan’s predic
tions bare did not materialize. That
was the government ownership of
railroads and utilities at large. If
the government can run the poet of
fice as efficiently as it is, it surely
can.operate the railroads, he reasoned
and followed by saying that monopoly Badminton Set To Be Given
was indefensible and intolerable and
would always follow as a result of At Dance Saturday Evening
private operation.

“This nation will become dry in < coming Saturday night is also to be
fact as well as in name. America is (
going to convert the world to tem
perance because it was a dual remedy
—total abstinence and prohibition,”
he declared, “although I am 59 years
old, I expect to live to see the time
that there will not be anagen saloon
under any flag at a civilised nation!”
One issue alone of »he discussion
Bryan presented is today a reality.
That is the election of. senatosa by
public election rather than appoint
ment by the states. Although it was
a law at the time of his talk here, he
was the original sponsor and intro
duced the measure the first time in
the floor of the senate.
Alhtough William Jennings Bryan
had been a public figure for 24 years
and it was believed that be had talked
to more peepie in thia country than
any official had up to that time, he
still was the biggest drawing card on
the national scope. Crowds would
teasel miles to hear him—he could
get an audieuce when President Wil
son could raise only a dew hecklers.
In token of his visit here, he was pre
sented with a Myrtle wood nut bowl
and Bryan said that he would always
keep it in remembrance of Myrtle
Point.
