Marketa^onsolidate. Coquille Iferald. WEDNESDAY, DEC. 18. 1907. A Mach Needed Enterprise. Doctors Culia and Richmond have by their enterprise in fitting out so excellent a hospital as the Western Oregon General Hospital in this city, performed a great pub lic service. A hospital should be viewed as a public institution, run for the gen eral good. In many countries the hospitals are run by the gov irnment In England hospitals are generally entirely or almost entirely support ed by volunteers’ contributions and the patients are treated free, and even in this country, there are in some counties free hospitals main tained from a fund raised by a tax levied much the same as the Poll tax. Hospital treatment is one of those unexpected necessities that any members o f a community may need at any hour. There are at this mo ment many people in hospitals laid low by some disease or accident people who but a few weeks ago were in the full flush of health. No doubt many o f those people had made no provision tor such a con tingency, and the inevitable expense in too man) cases will eat up the hard earned savings or cause a heavy debt to bo incurred that must be met. unless friends or relatives bear the expense. Drs. Culin and Richmond offering a most generous proposi tion to the people of Coquille and vicinity whereby any sickness from the toothache to appendicitis can be treated without any fee or expense for medicine or operations, nursing or medical attendance. This proposition is well known in keeping with the characters of the Doctors. The details of tho plan by which they hope to get all the people in Coquille and vicinity to contribute their mite toward the maintenance of the hospital contained in a pamphlet just pub lished. The Doctors have placed the management of this plan in the hands of Mr. P. Howell Poole, an energetic gentleman who has recent ly come to reside among us. Mr. Poole tells us that he will be pleased to explain the details of this plan to any one who cares to mail him card to the general .delivery at Co quille mentioning name and address of inquirer. B u rn ed at Sea There has been a change in the meat market business in this city, E. S. Dean, of the City Market, W. V. Cope and B. L. Hclenbeck have bought out the Enterprize Meat company and will close the shop recently conducted by Mr. Dean, and the business of the new firm will be conducted at the stand and still uader the name of the En terprise Meat Co., but will be stylad the People's Market. These gentle men are all known in the country and need no introduction or recom mendation at our hand. Mr. Dean has conducted a market at Myrtle Point and this place for several years and has quite a reputation as an extra fine hand at preparing breakfast bacon, while he has had a valuable helper in the person of Mr. Holenbeck for some time, while Mr. Cope hag been our hustling street commissioner for a while.
