have been an IGNORED guest at the
Coe home and the wholesome hospi-
tality which has always been shown
by our friends. In earlier years the
Coe home was a city of refuge In a
wild and rugged land. Under the
shade of the spreading old oaks,
which grace the home grounds, al
most every citizen Of Grants Pass has
at some time or other felt the warm
end gracious hospitality OF Mr.. and
Mrs. Coe, and the cheerful optimism.
and contagious smile of our hostess
was equalled only by her culinary
skill. Fourth of July celebrations,
Sunday school picnics, birthday par
ties, open-house receptions and pri-
vate dinners without number have
hallowed these noble old oaks with
their memories, while the lot next
door was for many years sacred to
amateur base ball. where the fats
and leans battled for supremacy At
the national game In the long after
Moons before the picnic dinners un-
der the trees, until a genial Irishman
by the name Of Jim Hair, with .
quick temper and big heart, bought
the land and took Jim Martin to
board, and now fats and leans dwell
together In perfect harmony.
Perhaps we men do not quite ap-
preciate the utter loneliness OF the
life Of the pioneer woman. Coming
from homes of culture and refine
ment, as many Of them have as brides
or young matrons, the sting and lash
of pioneer conditions have been BIT
ter indeed to be borne. The dearth
of intellectual and artistic forms Of
entertainment, the utter absence OF
any modern convenience and a gnaw-
ing, heart-breaklng loneliness have
characterized In greater or less de-
gree the lives Of pioneer women In
the newer cities OF this western world.
Time, the great healer. brings its
compensation, but the first few years
are fraught with pitlful experiences.
To many such woman Mrs. C0e
has been an inspiration In her unsel-
fish devotion to duty. She has learn
ed the lesson that only In service to
others can we find happiness for our
selves, and others have prohted by
her unobtrusive, modest example.
Never Haunting her virtues or forcing
herself in the lime-light, she has new
erthless endeared herself to a large
circle OF the home-bullders Of the
earlier years; and so the influence
will become a part of the warp and
wool of the town for all time to come.
"And so take pleasure In respond
ing to the toast Our Host and Host
ess May kind Providence grant
them further years Of life In which
they shall see OF the travail Of their
brave souls and be satisfied"

The speech of e. s.. vanDyke, In
asmuch as 1t refers in a measure to
the early history of Grants Pass and
the important part played by these
pioneers, is printed In full.
Mr.. VanDyke's Speech.
81 must confess to a considerable
degree Of embarrassment in that
have been chosen to give to you a
few of the epoch chapters from the
lives of our friends, Mr.. and Mrs
Coe.
Through all the pioneer years OF
Grants Pass while / was being care
fully reared and protected by a pio-
neer father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs.
Coe were bearing with them the bur-
den and heat of the day Of strenuous
endeavor, and 1t would seem perhaps
more fitting IL some comrade OF the
earlier years could speak from the
fullness of his or her heart the ap-
probation which he or she must feel
for the many thoughtful and earnest
words and deeds which our friends
have given to the upbuilding OF
Grants Pass, the city beautiful. How
ever, can say that | have known
Mr.. and Mrs. Coe for number of
years, that have always been proud
to call them my friends, and that
their friendship toward me has been
never-failing, and in this way | am
perhaps qualified to ray them the
tribute OF a friend
I'VE are all thrilled and aroused
by the act OF public heroism. When
man gives his life, or even his repu-
tation or his fortune In the filling up
OF the breach OF lost cause, we
stand in breathless admiration and
awe In the contemplation OF so dar-
ing a deed OF bravery. We read with
bated breath and moistened eye the
mighty deeds OF valor In the stirring
times of war and national stress and
storm, but we are apt to forget that
peace has her victories as we'll as
war, and that the man who. with
answering devotion to high ideals
Of duty and the obligations Of friend
ship, performs the daily routine Of
his humble life, Is just as much n
hero In the strife as he who follows
duty to the firing line.
1T is no small task to pioneer
ones way to success In new and In
accessible country and II Is last
ing tribute TO the integrity and pa
tlen. fidelity. which have always
characterized our host and hostess,
that they have made for themselves

NECESSITY OF ALLOWING
SALE SALMON TROUT.
TO the Editor of The Courier:

ITO the Editor of The Courier:
Sir: During the year that | have
res ded in Grants Pass | have no.
ticed that almost daily hook-and-line
fishermen catch good strings of sal
mon trout and steelheads measur-
ing from eight inches to two feet
in length. 1t is not at all difficult
to do this in the Rogue river.
have noted also that when a citizen
wants a mess Of fresh fish he must
go to the market and pa from
twelve to fifteen cents a pound for
salmon (Which Is coarserfsh)
shipped on ice from the Columbia
river.
Seeing these things many times
and oft, | am prompted in writing
this article to your paper.
These fish that take the hook are
the species that follow the salmon
to the spawning beds in the upper
streams, where they put in their en-
tire time stealing and fattening on
the salmon eggs. The salmon eats
nothing after leaving salt water,
therefore becomes poor and stale In
the spawning fields while the egg
thieves posing in the role of Pocket
filler" Carnegie and "Morganheim"
grow fat and sleek.
The oregon law allows the catch
ing of these fish with hook and line
only, but prohibits the sale of them.
This law, when passed by the pee
Pile, was intended to prevent the fin
al extinction of the noble salmon,
and it was not passed day too soon.
The net, the wheel and the Gamer
les were fast depriving the settlers
on the tributaries of the Rogue of a
legitimate resource and luxury be-
longing by natural law to the pio-
neer, and going to him by right along
with his homestead And there is
but one argument in favor of the
nets. wheel and canneries On the
Rogue and against the people, and
that argument is best expressed In
dollars and cents directly benefting
a few and indirectly injuring many,
to be followed ultimately by elimin-
ating the salmon from the rivers OF
Josephine and Jackson counties.
The writer for several good rea-
sons voted for the closing of fish
monopoly on Rogue river | am,
however, in favor of amending that
law so that it will permit the unlim-
tied sale Of all fish (not too small)
caught in the Rogue or its tributaries
with the hook and line.
The egg eater, which takes the
hook. is the deadly enemy OF the sai-
mon, and follows them to the utter
most ends of the spawning streams
destroying their roe and young. The
more Of these fish in our rivers the
fewer the salmon.
1t is a well known fact that at the
government hatcheries the killing OIL
all the egg eaters that they catch is
considered a necessity.
The people voted for the present
law because the cannerymen at tue
mouth Of the Rogue took advantage
OF the then existing law. This law
allowed the nets to extend to the
middle OF the river. The Gamers de-
1iberately put out their nets from
both banks. neetins In the middle
