Manager ffm. Hall of the mine com-

i where it was turned over to Undertak­
er Arthur Ellingson while efforts are
being made to locate the relatives of
the unfortunate man. Mr. Hall said
that there were no papers in his pos­
session that threw any light on the
wherabouts of the man’s people.
This is the second man that has been
killed in the Riverton mine in 25 years,
according to Mr. Hall, who considers
that a very good record. He also says
this was one of those accidents that
could not be avoided and that this is
corroborated by other workmen who
were present at the time. Depositions
to this effect have been made by the
workmen before Justice J. J. Stanley

order to provide more money for grav­

done as far as possible.
A petition was presented to the court
by residents of the Beaver Slough sec­
tion asking for a road from the Coquille
river up the slough and connecting
with the Coquille-Marshfield road near
the John Yoakam place. The county
engineer was instructed to look the
matter up and see if such a road would
be practical.
The contract for assistant county
physician to take care of the business
on the bay was awarded to Dr. H. M.
Shaw at $44 per month. The contract
for drugs used by the county was let to
Winkler’s Pharmacy, Marshfield, for
cost plus five per cent.
Some difficulty is being experienced
by the court in regard to the county
road at Lockhart Ave.,Marshfield. The
Southern Pacific claim that the road is
upon their property and the surveyors
who have investigated the matter do
not agree as to whether it is or not.
The court unanimously adopted re­
solutions indorsing Charles Hall, presi­
dent of the Coos and Curry Telephone
Co , as a member of the proposed Stat
Highway Commission, and imploring
Governor Withycombe to appoint him
to that high office.
The resolution outlines the fact that
Mr. Hall is a capable man, one who
has ever been foremost in road con­
struction both in Coos county and other
portions of the state, and that his
judgment has always been found as the
best. Mr. Hall is given the unanimous
indorsement for the reason that not
only Coos county’s interests wifi be
served but that the entire southern
Oregon section will be ably represented.
Those who pretend to have an insight
on the situation state that Governor
Withycombe wifi look with favor on a
Coos county applicant and that since
he is being indorsed by the county
court, the various business organiza­
tions and the press of the county, that
he wifi very likely receive considera­
tion at the hands of the Governor.
The position sought is one of three

Highway Commission, nnd each must
