Roseburg will bIiow hor faith In tho
railroad to Coos Hay by hor work?.
The committee appointed to confer
with tho Coos county committees,
cotuposod of W. II. Fisher, A. C.
Mnrators, F. E. Alley, J. H. Booth
and V. L. Cobb, will go down to tho
shores of the western sea backed .up
with at loast $100,000 In cash. To
day 1b tho day sot apart to ralso tho
monoy here toward building tho
roat? and today tho members of the
commltteo has socured $115,000
many of tho capitalists and business
people of Roseburg on tho subject
nnd received such oncourngemunt
thnt thoro is no doubt tho sum men
tioned and perhaps a much larger
amount will bo secured.
It was not tho original Intention to
take any stopB toward raising money
for construction until nftor tho Cooq
Bay conference nnd tho organization
i of a company, but Boos county hns
pledged over $100,000 and tho mom-
bora of the commltteo from Rosuburg
did not want to meet -the otnurprlstng

"Evorybody Holpa!"
Tho commltteo will not go to Coob
Bny empty ha ml oil when thoy moot
with tho contmitteos from Marsh
Hold, North Bend, Bandon, Coaulllo
nnd Myrtle Point, to tnko definite
steps towards building tho railroad
from this city to Coos Bny.
'Todny hns boon flxod bb tho day to
ralso tho monoy nnd from personal
conversations hold yosterday morn
ing with vnrlouB roprosoutntivo clll

feel that they will havo no difficulty

burg havo nlroady oxprosscd them
uclvoa na willing to subscrlbo $10,000
each and theso liberal takcrB of
stock do not comprlHo tho wealthiest
men In tho city either.
Louis Rnrzoo, Bocrotary of the
Merchants' Protcctlvo iiBsoclatloii,
this morning sent tho names of the
Roseburg commltteo to tho various
committoos In Cons county nnd tho
dlfforont mombors from tho various
towns will fix tho time nnd place for
the general conforoncc. Whilo Rose
burg has oxtondod tho cnurlosloH of
this city. It is bollovnd tho mooting
will probably bo hold at Marshilold
and tho date will bo booh.
At this meeting It Is oxpoctod u
general plan will be out lined for tho
building of tho road nnd perhaps tho
company organized to do tho work.
Many oltlzons thought it wns iis'j
loss to attempt to rnlso money for
tho construction of tho road until a
company was nrgnnlzod nnd n general
plan outllnod, but whon Coos Bay
buslnosa mon nnnouncod thnt thoy
had nlroady put up ovor $100,000
and put it up to Roseburg, tho com
mitteemen from this city decide'
thoy did not caro to moot tho Coos
Bay citizens until thoy had something
substantial to show their wosteru
nolghbors. A vory littlo Informal
talk on tho streets soon convinced
thorn that thoy may take plodgos tn
Coos Bay whon thoy go amounting to
ovor $100,000. With an ovonhalf
dozen men subscribing $10,000 each
a larger numbor nt $5,000 ench and
some of tho wenlthotr cltlzons not
yet soon who will perhaps glvo even
larger sums than thoso, tho road
should soon bo undor way.
However, tho members of th
commltteo roallzo that they have
work to do and do not oxpoct all the
money nocossnry for the construction
of tho lino to bo subscribed wlthou
solicitation. It will be a strenuou
campaign antj evory citizen of tho rliy
and surrounding country will be ask
ed to take capital stock In Just as
larg blocks ns possible. , It will bi
a campaign whero "ovorybody helps "
The members of the committee alto
realize that It will bo the small con
tributions from mon In moderate cir
cumstances that will make up the
amount required to build the road.
Men In aettvo business with mod
erate capital and having all their
means tied up In their business will
havo to make some sacrifices to con
struct the road and maintain Rose
burg as the southern Oregon metrop
olis, but theso aro tho men who will
do It. They feel that the Increased
business the road will bring wld
more than compensate (or any Incon
venience, not to mention the fact that
taking stock In tbU road Is a gilt
edgo Investment In Itself.
