staadon now has better steamship serv
ice than any other Pacific Coast city
between the Columbia River ana can
Francisco. Since the Brooklyn was put
on recently, there are three first-class
passenger boats from Bandon to San
Francisco, and one, the Anvil, to Port
land. The three boats running be
tween here and San Francisco are the
Brooklyn. Flflcld and Elizabeth.
The great activity In the lumber
trade at this Dort Is largely responsi
ble for the excellent service, as all
the mills on the Coqullle River are
now running to capacity. Bandon Is
at present the liveliest town In Coos
County. The work of the dredge Ore
gon, which Is taking out the shoals
that obstruct navigation, will make
this one of the' best harbors on tne
Coast.
There Is again talk of establishing a
port commission now that the courts
have held that the proceedlnsrs are law
ful and valid. In all probability some
thing will be done toward organising
such a commission wunin me nrxi
month. The money raised from this
source will go far toward putting the
harbor In such condition that heavy
draft boats, carrying from 1,000.000 to
1. 000. 000 feet, can enter the port with
ease.
