PORTS AND POBLIC WELLFAKE
Marshficld Sun Comments Thereon as
Well as on Some Oilier Matters
The Marshficld Sun has had a few
thought throbs on the port question
and matters pertaining to city econo
my in the Bay burg nnd has relieved
itself of the following:
Coos Hay Has Clear Sailing Uandon
Strikes Snag
From newspaper reports, it appears
that the main point upon which the
supreme court granted a rehearing
in the Bandon Port case, which was
brought to test the validity of said
port, was on the grounds that the ter
ritory embraced in the Port of Bandon
overlapped or included lnnd already
incorporated in the port of Coos Bay.
To the lay mind, this contention, if
true appears necessarily fatal. But
what Coquille seems to have encoun
tered in forming its district seems
to have been overlooked in. . the
"friendly suit" that followed the or
ganization of the Coos bay body. If
the Port of Coos Bay has included
part of the Coquillo water shed in it3
confines, nnd wo arc satisfied thai it
has Prosper precinct having voted
' on ithe selection of commissioners for
their side it seems to bo very
curious and very strange that the
issue was not raised in the Coos Bay
case. Or was the friendliness of the
case so pronounced that this particu
lar issue was allowed to get by. It
was generally clear in the understand
ing of the nveragc individual that the
port districts were to embrace terri
tory within that particular water
shed. But in the formation of J.hc
Port of Coos Bay, we went out of this
watershed and included the ten mile
country which has a distinct and ncp
arate watershed of its own. Big Creek
embracing Shore Acres and other
lands, near the entrance to Coos Bay
were ommittcd nnd the reason given
was that it had a water shed of its
own, the argument being supported
by the facts. Then wo jump over the
divide nnd grab a piece of Coquillo
territory. The Port of Coos Bay re
ceived the ofiicinl sanction of regular
ity from the supreme court, and now
comes the Port of Bandon and its
plans seem to have been upset for
traveling on similar lines to that of
Coos Bay in its program of organiz
ation. The conclusion is therefore
readily reached that what is snuce
for the goose is not always sauce .for
the gander. .
on tho hurdles been devoured by Ihfc
Port shark, figuratively speaking. So
our enthusiastic port neighbors must
accept this comment from a district
that has been through the mill. We
can not but look with some apprehen
sion, that is born of experience, least
the Coquillo should endure the pains
suffered by us, and are ready with ad
vance sympathy. We are not butting
into your game, but are hoping that
you get results a run for your mon

payers on the Coquille, if it becomes
their lot to travel the route traversed
by his Coos Bay neighbor.

Taking Up the Slack
Facing an inevitable defiiciency the
city council last Monday made a move
In reducing expenses in an effort to
have the municipalities disbursements
coincide with its revenues. It was de
cided to discontinue the appropriation
to tho band, a street cleaner will be
let out, one engineer in the fire de
partment will lose his position and
compensation for fire drils will cease
with the conclusion of this month.
These reductions aggregate $3,000
annually, which amount must be aug
mented before the revenues in sight
will be sufficient to meet the budget
of expenses, as unforseen items are
cropping up all along the lino.
These reductions were made on tho
recommendation of the finance com
mittee which some time ngo started
in to take up the slack by recommend
ing the combining of the offices of
nlrcct superintendent and inspector,
which would have saved the city the
salary of one supernumerary. The
measure was passed by tho council, 4
to 2, but Mayor Allen's veto saved the
d.iy for at least one parasite. The
finance committee's memory was evi
d -ntly fresh on the mailed fist policy
of tho mayor, hence no recommenda
tion to unhorse the chairwarniers,
whoso particular service to tho city is
llviir agrceablencss in accepting n
i jmpensation for which no adequate
i jturn is given, the taxpayers. Trim
ming the firo department, the street
."epartmant and cutting off the band
; id maintaining a building inspector
i i office does not meet with the satis
t'.'.ctory comment of the people. It is
f ood politics but very poor financial
j nl icy.
Pulling Its Teeth
It seems that Attorney Liljcqvist
is to have another throw at tho port on
the Coquilld side of the' divide. He
was author of a bill which would have
reserved to the taxpayer a say in
bonding for largo sums. Tho meas
ure applied to nil ports and would
have pulled some of the creaturo'n vi
cious, bond eating teeth. Alas for
Coos Bay, it was Into on tho calendar

THE tendency is when
business is good to make
it better by advertising Mer
chants act under the assump
tion that advertising is a luxury.
When business grows slack
they discontinue advertising.
Advertising is a part of bu
