Bar A ssociation Form ed.
The Coos County Bar Association
was organized Monday evening last
at a meeting of the different lawyers
held in the court house in Coquille.
All the members o f the county bar
with two exceptions were present
and signed the roll. These two are
absent from Coos aud will no doubt
join ou their return. A. J. Sher
wood was elected presideut of the
association, Judge John F. Hall
vice-president, J. J. Stanley secre
tary, and C. A. Sehlbrede treasurer.
All the important counties o f this
and other States have their bar as
sociations for the general uplifting
and protection o f the legal profes
sion, and this move by our attor
neys is iu keeping with the unques
tioned growth and up-to-dateness
of Coos county.
A committee of three was imme
diately appointed to wait upon and
invite Judge Hamilton and District
Attorney Brown to the meeting, and
the invitation as extended was ac
cepted promptly. The Judge and
Mr Brown were both elected to
honorary membership, and each de
livered an appropriate address.
The following committees were
appointed: Permanent Organiza
tion.—J. D. Goss, E. D. Sperry, J.
F. Hall, L. A. Liljeqvist and C. F.
McKnight. By-Laws.— C. A. Sehl
brede, A. S. Hammond, N. C. Mc
Leod, L. A. Boberts and G. T.
Treadgold. Resolutions of Sympa
thy for J. W. Bennett.— J. M. Up
ton, John F. Hall and Walter Sin
clair. Rules of Court.— E. D. Sper
ry, J. W. Snover and A. H. Derby
shire.
The latter committee was
instructed to consult with Judge
Hamilton before making its report.
On motion, the meeting adjourn
ed after deciding to meet at Marsh
field the fourth Tuesday in January.
N ew G. A. R. Post.
At Modern Woodman Hall last
Wednesday afternoon Coquille Post,
Grand Army of the Republic, was
formally mustered in by W. E.
Thorp, commander of Baker Post at
Marshfield.
Once previously Co
quille had a Grand Army Post, but
it surrendered its charter about five
years ago, its members thereafter
commingling with the other posts
of the valley.
The new post starts out with a
healthy membership, and there is
every indication that it is here to re
main. The meeting day will be the
first Wednesday in each month at
2 p. m. at Modern Woodman Hall.
An earnest invitation is extended to
all Civil War veterans of this sec
tion to unite with the new organiza
tion. Its officers for the first year
are as follows: Commander, Wal
ter Sinclair; Sen. Vice Com., E. W.
Ferris; Jun. Vice Com., D. P. Strang;
Adj., G. E, Brewer; Chap., J. Quick;
Q. M., John Rowan; Officer of Day,
Jos. Waltermier; Officer of Guard,
J. B. Davis; Snrg., W. A. Custer.
Other members of the post are: W.
Drane, A. J. Wilson, L. Harlocker,
B. F. Hill aud J. L. Samson.
Visitors ns follows were present
from other posts: B'indon.—Thos.

Stm r. Coquille’s T rial Trip.
The new steamer Coquille, lately
built near tbe depot for tbe Coquille
River Transportation Co., is in full
readiness to assume her place on
the Bandon run, lacking only the
formality of an official inspection,
which will be made any day. The
inspectors have been sent for, and
should have arrived ere this.
On last Thursday afternoon the
new craft made a trial run to Bea
ver Blough and back, and every
thing worked in a most satisfactory
manner. The engines of course, be
ing new, worked a trifle hard, but
nevertheless the six miles to Beaver
were covered in just 27 minutes. A
few were aboard as deck hands and
stewards, and the ride was immense
ly enjoyed. Captain John Moomaw
officiated at the wheel and Gurley
Boak was master of the engine
room.
The Coquille is what is
known as a “ keel condenser.” She
is one of the fastest and prettiest
little steamers afloat.
J. W. Clinton, who lately return
ed from bis trip through the Mid
dle West and South, paid the H er
ald a pleasant
call last Monday.
His trip carried him through Cana
da, down the Mississippi River, to
bis old home in Misouri, and thence
into Texas and Mexico on his re
turn home. In the old Mexican Re
public he had the displeasure of
witnessing a bull fight, and biought
home some pictures of the cruel ex
hibition. No more bull fights for
him, he says.
