OT-Portland OT-Phillipines OT-China OT-Japan OT- NY misc-word-shipliners CoqB 30 July 5,1901 Mr. Graham's Latest. The Associated Press dispatches to the effect that "the Oregon & Oriental Steamship Company, which operates a fleet of steamgships [sic] between Portland, Or., and ports in the Phillipines, China and Japan," was considering the establishment of a line from New York to the far east created a great deal of interest on the Portland water front. General Manager R. A. Graham is well remembered in Portland by shipliners, stevedores, pilots, coal dealers and others who traffic with the men who go down to the sea in ships, and the news of his latest enterprise came as a surprise. With the Oregon & Oriental belting the Pacific with its great system of lines, side-lines and lines, and Graham on the other side of the continent preparing to do likewise on the Atlantic, it is no wonder that J. Pierpont Morgan is hurrying homeward as fast as the Deutchland can carry him. The glory of Letson Balliet, the mining king of Eastern Oregon, will grow dim alongside that of the general manager of the Oregon & Oriental when his press agent gets his working clothes on. Meanwhile there is some speculation as to the fate of the Pacific division of the Oregon & Oriental when Graham gets his steamers to working through the Suez on a 40 days' schedule. The line from the Atlantic will not include the steamers Eva, Universe, Monmouthshire, Adoto and Carmathenshire [sic], which Mr. Graham started to operate on the Oregon & Oriental. If "hot air" was a good propelling power, some steamship lines would be more easily operated than others. --Oregonian. + [cp] War law tax CoqB 30 July 5, 1901 war revenue reduction law makes sweeping reductions in the stamp and tax laws, exemptions; [list].

Again the citizens of the county gathered to celebrate the birth of our nation and judging from the turnout and enthusiasm displayed, patriotism flows freely in the veins of the citizens of Coos. A more beautiful day than that which dawned upon Coquille yesterday morning could not be wished for. The sun came out early and the sky was cloudless all day. At about 9:30 the train from Marshfield came rolling in bringing over about three hundred visitors to swell the already large throng, which was soon increased by crowds coming on the river boats, the Dispatch from the lower river being loaded. At 10 o'clock the parade formed on Front street, headed by the North Bend band, which had been secured for this occasion, the liberty car, old soldiers, relief corps, bicycles, etc. The liberty car was a thing of beauty and, loaded as it was with Young America, it caused a feeling of pride to some over the great throng which beheld it. The parade made a circuit of four blocks to the grove where the following program was carried out: FORENOON EXERCISES. Marshal of the Day Alfred Johnson, Sr., in a few brief remarks, told the large audience present why the committee had made the mistake in not having the orator of the day present whom they had intended, and promised a short oration by Rev. C. H. Fitch in his stead. The exercises was opened [sic] by prayer by Rev. M. O. Brink. The oration, prepared by Rev. Fitch, at only moments notice, was splendidly delivered. The music by the Choral Society was simply grand. The North Bend band rendered several splendid pieces during the program, and as whole the program was enjoyed by those assembled. AFTERNOON EXERCISES. The baseball game between the Oakland and Coquille being the first thing on the program the crowd wended their way to the grounds and by the time the game was called the largest crowd that was ever inside the grounds had gathered. The game was called at 1:45 with Nonda Anderson as umpire and the Oaklanders at bat. The first three Oaklanders grappled with the club only to lay it down again after fanning the air. Coquille came in and did a little better, they running in one tally [print]. The first part of the second inning resulted the same way for Oakland and again they took the field. Coquille coming in and having found exactly where the Oakland pitcher was "throwing them," began to deal with them accordingly and made five tallies. Again the Oaklanders came to the bat and after three of them were through waving frantically took their places in the field not having scored. During this time the home boys had become very confident that they could hit the ball any time and after a few serpertine [sic] movements would take their seats on the players bench, but they succeeded, however, in running in several runs, making the score stand 11 to 0 in favor of Coquille. Coquille then thinking it wise to give Nefzger a rest, put Herman Carl in the box, and Billy retired to the right-field. Carl proceeded to give the Oakland batters a few softer ones, and they finding him an easier man, succeeded in hitting a few, but didn't improve the looks for the score book any. The Coquillers, of course, all this time had been playing a "brilliant" game some of them muffing the ball when it would fall into their hands. Upon Coquille coming to bat they proceeded to lose the ball again and succeeded in making one more tally. This seemed to be a day off for the Oaklanders and they were not able to cope with their opponents, and the game at this time was not as interesting as it might have been. cont. (35) In the rest of the innings, however, they succeeded in running in several but when Coquille come [print] to the bat they would run in several more, and at the end of the first half of the ninth the game st5ood 26 to 7 in favor of Coquille. The following is the score: COQUILLE AB R BH SB PO A E Baxter, 2b 7 3 2 1 0 1 2 Benham,ss 7 6 3 3 1 3 0 Lorenz 3b 7 6 4 4 1 1 2 Johnson,c 7 1 0 1 16 4 1 Nefzger,p 6 1 3 2 0 2 0 Carl,rf & p 7 3 3 1 1 0 0 F.Nosler,lf 7 2 3 2 2 0 0 C.Nosler,1b 5 2 2 1 6 0 0 H.Benham,cf 5 2 2 1 0 0 1 Totals. .. 58 26 18 16 27 11 6 OAKLAND AB R BH SB PO A E Leatherwood,2b 4 0 0 3 3 3 4 Parker, c 5 1 0 2 11 1 0 Wilcox p 5 0 0 0 0 0 1 Brown 1b 5 1 0 0 5 0 1 Medley 3b 5 1 1 1 3 0 1 Gray lf 5 1 1 0 1 0 1 Page rf 4 2 0 1 0 0 1 Leatherman,ss 5 0 1 0 1 1 5 Mahoney cf 3 1 0 4 0 2 0 Totals.. . 41 7 3 11 24 8 15 [M. these two items were in column, Oakland being under Coq.] RUNS BY INNINGS Coquille...... 1 5 5 1 4 2 6 2 * --26 Oakland....... 0 0 0 0 2 3 0 0 2 --7 The Oakland boys took their defeat manfully and were not only pleased at the fairness of Umpire Anderson, but also in the treatment they received at the hands of the players. The crowd, which of course was most enthusiastic for the home team, omitted the "guying" which is usually unmercifully dealt out, by the small boy especially. The game was not without blunders and both sides got them to their credit. As to the Oakland boys we have this to say: that Coquille never had the pleasure of entertaining a more gentlemanly set of young men and that we are more than pleased at their conduct after their defeat. Manager Sterns is a pleasing young gentleman and made many friends during his stay. The gate receipts amounted to $236, which was divided among the team, 60 per cent going to the winner and 40 to the loser. The winning team also secured the $50 purse. OTHER SPORTS. The crowd went from the ball game to the river where they witnessed the log rolling contest, for a purse of $30, which was participated in by Chas. Noble, Dave Holden and Jesse Hall. Noble succeeded in ducking Holden in a very short time, but Hall was not so easy and gave him some exercise before taking a bath. Noble got 1st prize of $20 and Hall 2nd prize of $10. The other sports took place on Front street, and on the sawdust back of the old depot, in the following order: Men's race, 100 yards, six entered. Wm. Nefzger s 1st money, $10; Frank Hague, 2nd, $2.50. Boys race under 16, purse $5, Walter Butler. Boys race, under 12, 50 yds, purse $2, Johnnie Bernitt.

[sub head ] A Great Crowd Witnessed the Game. [ " ] A Gala Day for the Marshfielders, and a Sad One for the Visitors. [ " ] [M. all one item even when spaces between.] Last Sunday morning a large and enthusiastic crowd took the train for Marshfield to witness the game between the Coquille and Marshfield teams. The weather was regular baseball style and the sun did its part in causing the perspiration to flow very freely. The game was called at 2:30 with Magness and Bender as umpires. Coquille came to the bat first aand succeeded in starting the game off with one tally to their credit, Chas. Baxter having made the first and only run of the inning. Next came the Marshfielders to the bat and after "Billy" had fanned Wright and Denning, Ferry made a hit and was caught out. Coquille feeling encouraged came in bravely, but after three of the men struck at "Hi's" curves unsuccessfully they again took the field. Marshfield came to the bat and made three runs thus making the score stand 3 to 1 in their favor. Coquille then made two more runs and tied the Marshfielders. Marshfield wasn't asleep in the last half of the third by a great deal and as the result of good hard work brought in a couple of tallies to their credit. The game by this time was getting pretty interesting for both sides, as both teams were striving hard to best their opponents and a great deal of side betting was being indulged in. Coquille upon coming to the bat in the 4th inning did some good batting and lined out some hot ones and succeeded in bringing in five runs. Magary and Pennick in the last half of this inning run [print] in a tally apiece, while Short and Ferry were giving an exhibition with the clubs and winning for themselves a place on the players bench; the score now standing 8 to 7 for Coquille. The fifth inning was an exciting one as Coquille made only one more run and Marshfield two thus making the score 9 to 9. The next inning was a very close one both sides running in one tally and the score stands 10 to 10. In the seventh inning Coquille played hard and made two runs making their tally sheet show 12 tallies for them. Marshfield came to the bat and after a good hard inning was played improved the looks of their tally sheet by four more runs. In the eighth neither side scored. The Coquillers had lost their grip and in the first part of the ninth the first man to the bat fanned, the second knocked an easy one to the pitcher and was put out on first, the third made a few wild movements, a grasp for breath and all was over; the Marshfielders had carried off the game with a score of 14 to 12 with half an inning to spare. Following is the score by innings: Marshfield 9 3 2 2 2 1 4 0 * --14 Coquille 1 0 2 5 1 1 2 0 0 --12 [M. note: Hi is Hi Wright.] = [M 2006: items below belong together, although here there are spaces between parts] county-court county-official prices crime Landis health-provider health-death travel CoqB 40 July 12,1901 Official County Court Proceedings Expenses of Inquest on Body of J.B.
