TAFT OUf DID
ROOSEVELT
IN OREGON
(United Press Leased Wire.)
Portland, Or. Nov. 23. That
President-elect Taft received n
greater number of votes at tho ic
cent election than President Roo'e
volt did In Oregon In 1904 Is evi
denced by tho complete ofnc'nl re
turns. Tho figures show that Taft ro
colved G2.530 as against CO, 455 for
President Roosevelt four yenrs ago.
Tnft's plurality, however, Is not us
largo as that of Roosevelt, but this
Is accounted for front tho fact thnt
Bryan ran far ahead of Parker, not
that Taft ran behind Rooievolt.
This year Bryan received 38,019
while Parker's voto four years ago
wob only 17,521. Taft's plurality Is
24,481.
Tho Republican nominee also re
ceived a majority of 14,071 over all
othor candidates.

Growing Importance of "The
Midway" Seaport Makes Pro
tection Prime Necessity.
Unprotected from u military stand
point for years, tho harbor nt Coob
Ray, on tho southern Oregon const,
Is to bo fortlll'id and the dream of
tho peoplo of that locality, to see
a battery stand guard nt Coos Head,
tho high promontory at the entrance
of tho bny, is to bo renllzod. Tho
govcimont is to construct tho forti
fications, which will bo manned by
an nrtlllory company rf tho Oregon
national guard.
Somo time ngo tho wnr dopartmont
mado tho proposition to tho Pacific
coast states to establish fortifications
at unprotected points whero n bat
tory of tho national guard could bo
organized. With this plan in view,
General Plnzer recontly visited Coos
Ray. Ho found ideal conditions, both
for making tho fortiflcutlouH and for
tho organization of a battery of state
nrtlllory
Coos Ray occupies an important
stratogetlc position. It Is situated
ISO miles south of Astoria and 400
miles north of San Francisco. It has
tho only coal supply In nny quantity
on tho Pacific coast south of Puget
sound. Tho ontranco presents an
Ideal location for n fort. The govern
ment has u land reserve of about 220
acres in tho vicinity. On tho north
sldo of tho bar is n low sand spit on
which is located tho life saving sta
tion, and tho government works usod
in constructing tho Jetty.
South of tho ontranco to tho bay
Is Coos Head This Is a julnt which
forms and which is the beginning of
a long rock plateau oxtondlng for
some distance down the coast. Tho
government owns Coos Hoad and tho
adjoining land. It is n natural fort.
High abovo tho water, it affords a
view of the ocean for miles, an 1 Runs
located on these rocks would com
mand a wide scope. A reef of small
rocks borderlog the coast and u. the
water serves to nako th p'act Im
possible to rouoli oxceptlng by cross
ing the bar
While tho fortl'Iottlons onuld nev
er bo reached from the ocean they
would be easy of awess onw inside
the bar. From i uoint on he lnwei
bay it is only .i gradual climb for a
body of men to reach this mtnlaiuro
Gibraltar. , , , r ..
The fortifications and local artil
lery company would result in several
dv:ntS38 'H'-3 locality lUej
would give Coos Hay more prestige
ub a seaport; tho bnttory of ortlllory
would glvo tho young men of tho
Coos Ray countiy n military train
ing; nn armory would bo bttllt and
rogular army offlcors would train tho
recruits. The state would nrovldo
tho armory building nnd n situ for it
would probably bo donated by the
local peoplo.
Tho organization would be of
great advantage In enso of rluts or
othor local disturbance. Coos Ray
Is at present without nny Bt.it-j mlM
tla protection. Should assistance of
that kind bo needed It would be ne
cessary to transport them sixty iiillis
over rough mountnln road from
Roseburg or by boat from l'oitl.ind,
nn undertaking expensive and nlmost
too slow to bo offectlvo.
