the train with "will be with you tomor

Mnrshfield things were doing and for
once that measley bunch of Cherrinus
got what was coming to them. As fast

a Sunday edition of a big city paper to

A Rich Sectoin.
The trip was a revelation to nil, an
object lesson in the way of showing us
old webfooters how little we really
know about our own state. Coos is the
leading dairy county of the Btate, it lias
so far as is known the only coal fields
in the state and they are of great ex
tent. The lumber industry is a vast one,
t ho largest sawmill in the world being
located here with a capacity of ti00,000
a da.y In the parade a feature
was a great train of 40 cars of immense
logs from the Powers Bros, logging
road. The line of parade followed this
road for some dozen blocks and the
train was run into and made a part of
1 tie parade; and a very interesting ex
hibit it was too with some of the logs
measuring 11 feet in diameter. This is
mentioned here to explain just what
that big mill can do. Someone asked
Fri-,"How loTfc would that train load of
logs last, the Smith millt " The guests
ranged from three days to two weeks
but an employe of the mill being asked
to decide it said: "The cars are a little
heavier loaded than usual and would
keep the mill busy for nearly five
hours." In other words the mill cuts
more than 80 earloads of logs every
eight hours or a carload every siv min
utes. Loading the ships ut this mill was
also an interesting sight, the great
cranes picking the lumber up in bunches
of a thousand or more feet and drop
ping it in place apparently without ef
fort. This is but one of mnnv mills and

developing faster than it is cut. There
is also a great cedar belt along the bny
mid extending down the const through
Curry where it is known as "Tort Or

cial asset.

FLIES OVER ECUADOR
Big Company Sends First of
Its New Liners On Way to
the Orient
San Francisco, Aug. 2$. With the'
steamer Ecuador a day out for ' the
Orient on her maiden voyage as a Pa
cific Mail liner, the Stars and Stripes -are
once more flying from ah Amor
icon owned in the traus-Pacifie trade.
The sailing marks the resumption of
service on the Pacific by the Pacific
Mail after discontinuance following the
passage of the I.aFollette seamen 's act,
the company holding that the provisions
made it impossible to operate at a
profit.
The return of the American flag to
the Orieutnl trade was the occasion for.
a patriotic demonstration as the ves
sel cleared. A vast rrowd gotherod
at the pier to cheer the Ecuador's de
parture, and the ship sailed out of the
harbor led by the battleship Oregon
and escorted by tugs and harbor vesseis,
shrilly whistling. .
article. To be understood the section -must
be visited and that Salem folks
will make this trip often in the coming
summers is a foregone conclusion. Be-,
twecn the Siuslaw and the bay some 20
odd miles, is a region dotted with small ;
lakes, the longest Tsiltcoos, and thine '
are filled it is said with the gamiest of -trout,
while the surrounding hills ace
the home of the big "Mowitch. " It is-'
a hunter's and angler's paradisebut
to return to our knitting. Saturday
morning Salem was up early, it got up
to rest and discover which shift of
Cherriuns was in charge. At 0 o'clock
the program opened and was continuous,
one event crowding over into the terri
tory of another until two or three wcro
going on at once, and a new one start
ing on a schedule that permitted no
more than 20 minutes between acts.
The Big Parade.
The monster parade was led by tho
bride and groom in a monster float, and
then came an old wagon labeled "How
we came to Coos in 1840." A boat
showed bow they came in 1 883, and a
railroad car the traveling in 1010. A
miniature locomotive built over an uuto
and lavishly decorated sent its driving
rods to and fro, while the smoke Btn.'k
puffed out, a emoke of confetti that
covered the street with snow and
sprinkled the pretty girls with thou
sands of flukes.
There were five bands, three march
ing bodies, Rusarians,' Radiators and
Cherriuns, who did all kinds of drill
stunts und were rewarded with such
cheers as only a lusty logger cun pro
duce. But why prolong. It can't all
be told nor even a respectable fraction
of it.
In the competitive drills, the Cher
riuns won, the prize, a table of Coos
Hay myrtle, the handsomest thing of the
kind ever made. It will be plueed on
exhibition here, probably in the win
dows of the .Meyers store.
Salem ennie home yesterday aftor
noon about 4 o'clock tired, woru out,
but wearing a smile that won 't couio
off and with the ever pleasing mem
ory of one of the most delightful visits
ever made by one community to anoth
er. It was sure a great wedding.
