Marshfeld.-Coos Bay people are
making a strong effort to retain the
government dredge Oregon which has
been at work on the baFbor. Major Me.
Indoe on stopping here, stated that the
dredge would be taken away before the
rainy season started and this aroused
the people to action and Congressman
W. G. Hawlcy, who has been in this city,
was appealed to for help. The people
have subscribed SCI 900 for running the
dredge and the port of Coos Bay has
guaranteed $4,000 more for its main.
tenance. Congressman Ilawley has
wired TO the war department, these
facts, together with a protest against
the removal of the dredgc. Ii is held
that the dredge was built for use on
the Oregon coast at the instigation of
Coos Bay citizens and should remain
here. The channel in the upper bay
has been dredged part way down, but
all the shoals have not yet been re.
moved and if the drcdge is taken away,
the work started will be left in an in.
condition. The dredgings have
been used to fill streets and low places
in the city and without its further use
portions of the city will be left un.
finished. II was the understanding of
the Coos Bay people that the dredge
was to remain here as long as money
for its maintenance was furnished.
