Coos County readers report promising moves toward building lines to connect the isolated region with the outside world. A new company will secure rights of way and survey the eastern end of the Coos Bay Boise line, while Roseburg finances the Haines survey. Promoters Haas and Kuettner visit towns to rally support for an electric line, deny Southern Pacific backing, and propose a $100,000 bond to ensure construction within two years.
