demand for the “ red-hot’’ partisan
political paper. Voters are becom­

be compelled to place clean, com­

them on their merits.
This has
been very noticeable in Coos county
for some years.
J. L. C. Smith, of Los An
California, w s b in Coquille last Sat­

county where he had spent some
time in prospecting and doing some
developement work upon claims
owned by himself and a few friends.
The old gentleman is higbiy pleased
with the prospects and what they
have been able to uncover so far.
lie had with him some specimens
of quartz which showed to be very
rich, and he is absolutely confident
as to tbe existence of large quanti­
ties of the oer in tbe ledge. While
Mr. Smith is well up in jears, and
wag so unfortunate as to lose bis
good right arm in the battle of Shi­
loh during the late unpleasantness
in this country, be is a man with
indomitable will and recognizes the
truthfulness of the old addage
“ where there is u will there is a
way.” He tells! us that while he
has but a left hand with which to
work, he can make wages breaking
up and working the quartz by hand.
He will spend the winter below,
but expects to go ahead in the
spring with the developement work,
and in due time will have a force of
men to work and appliances for the
proper working of the ore. He being

The subject of Athletic Sports,
Friday morning tho high school
was entertained by the first pro­
gram of the “ Society of The Six­

grade.
The following program,
which was enjoyed by all, was very
well rendered.

was presented by Dr. Richmond in
a very interesting and instructive
manner. He asserted that tbe ma­
jority of human ills are due either
directly or indirectly to lack of
proper physical exercise. Football,
basket ball, and swimming were
mentioned as excellent sports. Tbe
speaker went on to show that in
playing a good clean game, say of
ball, for instance, the mental and
moral powers are developed, as well
as the physical.
Another import­
ant paint made was that since there
is a certain amount of muscular en­
ergy in (he young, which must find
an outlet in some way, if this same
energy caD be directed into a safe
channel, good may result from it
rather than evil.
The remainder
of the time was given up to a discus­
sion of the topic.
Prof. Daring spoke of the Athlet­
ic Organization which has been
formed in the upper grades and of
what they hope to accomplish dur­
ing the year. The time for adjourn­
ment came altogether too soon, mak­
ing those present feel that an hour
and a half more might have been
profitably spent on the subject.
