State Chamber o f Commerce
Hosner Johnson,
ty, was working among the people
last week along tho oM Coos Bay
Wagon road on a proposition that
Douglas county woum improve the
road to tha county lino, if Cooe coun
ty would use her windfall from the
U. S. on tho Coos county and of the
Cooa Bay Wagon road. Tha Myrtle
Point road down tha East Fork should
have a slice, too. Mr. Johnson said
tbs Coos Bay road could bo built on
not to sxceed a t any place a five per
cent grade. The only way that his
road project could be made to work
would be to have the Douglas county
legislators got special legislation
through to spend the money.
It strikes me th at the State Engin­
eers and State Road Commission
should pass on road matters not
aeroplane legislation.
This windfall
th at is expected to come to Coos coun­
ty belongs to the people of the whole
county and if it is to be spent on
roads the people of the whole county
should decide od the roads on which
it is to be spent Why not pay the
bonds we now owe?

The last time the writer had a talk
with him was when he went down in
his buggy on Lie way to town, about
the time Roosevelt died, for when he
cr.me back on Thursday, he told me
of Roosevelt’s death. He told me then
that he could not do much work. In
si swer to my suggestion that he still
kept going, he said, “Yes, I keep go­
ing and will keep going as Idhg as I
can for as long as I keep doing I am
not down.” The though t expressed
was that he did not intend to get
down and ha didn’t. I am of the opin­
ion th at if ha could have made a
choice ho would not have had the
home going different. For he rode
over for the last time the road ho
helped to build, when he went to town
with “Jimmy” Laird the day before
and then as he rested at his daugh­
ter’s home in the afternoon‘ the mes­
sage came. That is a beautiful way
to go.
Nevy Harry did many kind deeds
in his time and had many friends. His
funeral was attended by a large num­
ber of his friends and neighbors.

“Our Friends, the French,” by Cafl
Holiday in the November Geographic
Magazine it an article that makes us
■it up and take notice of the great
character of the French people. Read
it. Then to gqt a little idea of what
Liberty costs, read in the same num
her, “The Price of Liberty," and soe
what our price would have been if
we had paid in proportion to France.
To the calamity howlers, let ihe re­
peat, this war is not a calamity. The
calamity would have been if there
had been no war, for than shame, sor
row, treachery and cowardice grould
hare been the scourge of the whole
world. The price of Liberty is great
but Liberty is worth the price.
