And that ho may remnln eovorcl dny.
For Bomo tltuo past tliore has been
more or less talk about the probability
of the California & Oregon Coast Steam
ship Company pulling on a now etcamor
to ply between Portland and Good Zay,
and it is mrmised that Mr. Holt's visit
liorc nt (his tlmo may havo eoriiDlliInij
to do with that contemplated project.
At present Ccos JJay has no direct
steamer connection with this city, al
though tho Alliance, Despatch and
Prcntlsi stop lhcro on their way down
tho const to Han Francisco and alio ion
their return voyaco. Uurincso men nt
tho i ovoral Ccos Day towns htuo long
contended that this aerrlco was iuado

deAvorcd to induco tho Culifornia ii

hinted that such a boat might bo put
on tho run next spring.
' iiccostly now industries hnvo been
opened up at North Uend, ono of the
most thriving towns down there, and it
la believed that the company is prepar
ing to put on tho talkrd-of lino much
eoonor than tho general public believes.
