SOME EXCELLENT IDEAS
Culled from a Letter Received
In Marshflold
From n letter received by a young
man In Marihflold (rum IiIn lather in tlio
Knit, tlto Mail I permitted to make Ihu
following extract, which convoy wtno
excellent ideas (or goriorabconiiumpllon:
I am glad you think bo well
tlio Cooi liny country. I read with
jntvrcit tlio piece In tho Pan Francisco
tfnqulror concornlag tho Rockefeller,
(lould combination to build tho rond
(ram Halt Lake City to Cooa Hay and I
think It n good deal (or a Ban Francisco
paper toeny that tho Gould-Rnckfollor
system will rnnko Coos bay tho best bar
boromho Pacific cobbI thoSan Fronds
coharhnrnbrBfllwaya been considered ono
of tho hast bnrburfi In iho country.
If tho Gould-Rockofoller company
havo really a loptod tint Great Control
routo 'and Intend to push tho road
thronch to Coon Day, It means much (or
that country. They will have a system
reaching (rom tho Atlantic to thd Pacific
with n network ol roada all through tho
most thickly rottlod and wealthiest porta
of tho United Htaten; a) that If th
influence, tratlle and travel ol their ureal
tyBtem ia turned to nn outlot (hoy will
bftTO to tho Pacific coast on Cooa Hay,
that end of tho road will bo kept hot
(rum tho llmo tho road ia finished on,
while tho country laete, and it will not
be long until n groat city will bo built
on tho ponitiBtilA formed by Cooa Hay.
If you eUylth It jou will havo great
opportuultloi. A man only hno two or
Mirco opportunities during his llfo to
mako a fortunoand eouio n'on, jes tlo
nrcat majority of men, lot thorn pars
without utHUIiiK thorn. Now
my ftdvica to-.you would bo to get hold of
tho beat locatod property you can, hold
It until you crn get a good price, Ibon
coll part nnd improvo tho other me ko it
bring you an incomo ne soon as poealblo.
Kcop n conatant lookout lor
bargains it you bavo money to invoet,
uovor buy moro than you can carty in
caae of a paulc. Don't bo In too big a
hurry; on tho other band donMall to
