GARDINER.
On the Umpqua River. One of the
Loveliest Milling Towns in the
Union.
Nine miles from the ocean and on the
Umpqua river, is the bright and beauti
ful town, Gardiner. Rounding a bend,
the handsome steamer, Era, gire3 its
passengers one of the grandest scenes in
thia glorious land of mountain, valley
and flood.
The river, two miles broad, is alive
with row boats nnd sailing craft, and a
dainty little steamer is puffing its way to
the creamery, loaded with milk cans
shining in the sun.
The town ia radiant with its lovely
homes rising terrace upon terrace and
vieing with each other in white and
cream, and slate and lavender. Bed
roofs here and there, make tho lawns,
gardens and orchards a brighter green,
and the big mill at one end of the town,
and commodious balls with flag etafls.
look as the parents of the family. Across
the river the salmon canntry answers
whistle for whistle, and the creamery on
the Gardiner eide keeps teams rattling
along the road. From the creamery ex
tends the home ranch cf State Senator
A. W. Reed. It has great level fields on
which browse 00 milk givers, and his
300 acres in cultivation.
On each side of the Umpqua, great
mountains rise, and trees in autumn
coloring.
Gardiner is built on the donation
claim of Ks-Governor Gibbs and the
lion. A. W. Reed holds the patents
When Reed came here twenty-eight
years ago, from Maine, there was a mill,
three dwellings and a store. He went
to work in the mill and has risen from
the eaw mill to the senate. lie was fore
man of the mill fourteen yearj, then
ioos 10 sieamooattng ana is sun in
terested in tho river steamers. He is
the manager and owner of the cannery
known as that of the Gardiner Packing
Co., the output rsachmg 15,000 cases of
salmon a season. BosiLcss was resumed
two weess ago ana is now in full swing
with every Jiklihood of a prosperous
yew for the Map Brand." There is no
better equipped bntter and cheese fac
tory in the state than that of Mr. Reed
at Gardner. The building two stories
high, is as white as purity, and intern
any is admirably arrranzea, while ex
ternally it can receive from land and
river. I be machinery includes a
S
iwenty-nve horse power engine, receiv-
cream vats, the unsurpassed
Alpha No. 1 separator, batterworker
and cutter, and all the auxiliaries for
first class production of butter and
cheese. This eeason the creamery re
ceived as high as 6500 pounds of milk
in a day, and has been in successful
operation since April last. More 1m
portant than the machinery khowevor, is
the fact that the manager and maker is
one of the most experienced men east or
west. Reference Is made to W. J. Per
kins, who was bom m Herkimer county
and raised in O'Neidacoanty, New York
and they arc celebrated as the treat
Eastern centers of batter and cheese
manuiactuie.
Mr. Perkins has been in the business
for a quarter of a century, and has
gained a national reputation and has
been manager of five first class factories.
liis luanutaclure is worthy ot premium
honors and commands the top of the
market.
Mr. Reed also owns town site and
1200 acres and a big mercantile bouse, a
beautiful home and tho good word of
everybody on land or water. His chief
aide de camp and accountant, Frank
Rogers, has lots to do but 13 equal to
every task, ana Mr. Reed has been
quite happy in his choice of lieutenants,
The Gardiner Mill Co. is a famous
corporation, and their mill after import
ant improvements is now sounding the
soprano of the saw and the baritone ot
the planer. It has two engines, COO and
400 horse power, respectively, propelling
double circulars and g.tng saws, gang
edges and pony circular, granting
capacity ot 60,000 leet ot hr ana spruce
in ten hours. The planing mill does its
duty to S0.000 feet of lumber at the
same time, and the output of lath is -0,-
000 feet. The mill is as trim as n roan
of war and thero are no ghastly heaps or
slabs around. The dock, J50D feet in
length, cost several thousand dollars,
and there is a mile of boom capable of
holding eight million feet of logs.
The superintendent, W. F. Jewelt, has
been at Gardiner for seventeen years,
and is a State of Mainer. His men sbv
thero is no more popular or capablo mill
man on the coast or anywhere else.
The statement is borne out by one tiler
with him ten years, planer man, nine
years ; sawyer, seven years : gang saw
yer, seven years; log hauler, seven
years and fireman, fivo years.
The accountant, O. 15. Hinsdale, has
been with tho company seven years and
formerly with the Puget Sound Mill
Company. He has vessel interests,
bank stock and real estate mado by en
erpy and good judgment,
W. F. Jewett is president at tho Ump
qua River Steam Navigation Company,
with tho Eva sailing daily to and from
tho ocean and Scottsburg, and the Juno
also daily from and to Gardiner and Sul
phur Springs up Smith river, and ho has
interests too numerous to mention. Tho
Jewett mansion at Gardiner is a dream
of cream colored beauty, with emerald
lawn and many beauties ol the floral
kingdon, and attracts and holds every
eje.
The mill manager, P. A. Brownell,
possesses thiriy-two years experience
and he is a stirring citizen. He owns a
beantifnl home which cost him $3,000,
and that Gardiner has many attractive
and substantial buildings is shown in the
following: The Jewett residence, $10,-
000; Hon A. W. Reed's Sweet Home,
$3000; the Frank Fly cottage, $2000, and
that of A. E. Anderson, $1500. Fly and j
Anderson are stevedores. Captain Corn
wall, captain of the Eva; and general
manager of the Cornwall Staged: Navi
gation Co., has a lovely $2000 residence.
The Masonic Hall, cost $2000 and the
O. O, F. Hall being built will cost a
like amount.
The Baptist church, (nnion services)
cost $1500. The Gardiner Hotel, $3500,
and the scboolhouse well, the sooner
they get a building worthy of the place
the better.
The GardinerMill Co., own an avenue
of beautiful cottages and no two build
ings alike, and strips of green down the
roadway. Their big mercantile house
carries np to $30,000 worth of goods and
they supply all around directly and in
directly about 400 men.
Gardiner has numerous lodges, the
most prominent being the A. F. &A.
M., I. O. O. F., A. O. U. W., Maccabees,
and Foreeters of America.
'this is a very ...beautiful ana very
healthy country, hut men will got hurt
on the mountains, in the mills or on the
river, so Gardiner has-a first class physi
cian and surgeon ia Dr. J. L. Elwood
His lather being a pharmacist he began
his druc experience at eleven years of
age. He is a member of a great phar
maceutical family, as not only his father
bnt his brother, three uncles and half a
dozen cousins are pharmacists. But Dr.
Elwood went farther and graduated as a
physician and surgeon and is held in
high regard professionally and socially.
With his office he has a complete estab
lishment devoted to materia medico.
1 he uardmer pest olhce, aithongh iso
lated from railway and stage road, re
ceives by steamer, which connects with
stage lines, one daily mail, two semi and
two tri-weekly maila
The postmaster is a veteran, for thia
country, as in that officiate he has
granted unqualified satisfaction to gov
ernment and the people for about eight
een years., Reference is made to J. H,
Butler, who is also a pioneer
who has bad a remarkably
interesting career. He was born in
Massachusetts and came to Oregon in
1S61, locating at Scottsburg. He worked
with his father, then took tu the river,
steamboating, succeeding which mining
attracted him to Idaho, where be also
engaged in packing and saddle trains,
then when the war news came, he joined
the gallant Oregon Cavalry. After the
cessation of hostilities he showed me
chanlcal senius and came to Gardiner in
IS73. He has since been not only post
master, but deputy collector United
States customs, and in lesser positions
showed public spirit. He has also been
landlord and owns a hotel building
which he rents, and he nas a snag resi
dence, and the post office building,
which is detached from other structures
J. H. Butler is a business man cf princi
ple and ability, and a gentleman held in
the highest regard, by young and old,
rich and poor.
The Pacific Hotel is rented by J. G.
Daley who lately bought the big Gardi
ner House, and he runs the two, the
smaller house being used for apartments.
Mr. Daley came here.fonr years ago and
he didn't have enough "to sat him up."
He now owns the hotel and nil that ia in
it, and a ranch of 160 acres, and can pay
in a minuto all he may owe. He is an
Austrian, and a capable ad., as be is 250
pounds avoirdupois but active all over.
Gardiner is busy and deserves to be,
because all the people pull together and
there is no snarling as everybody has a
good word for everybody and Gardiner
in particular. James Carswell.
The Question Solved..
Editor Plaixdealer: I am not a
scholar, much less a political student,
but by your leave I will correct some cf
the errors which have, either inadvert
antly or otherwise, crept into your con
tention for a gold standard.
The Bryan programme ia as follows, as
near as the writer can explain it: First
open the mints to eilver coinage at 412)2
grains to tho dollar. This coin to be
the standard and measure ol everything.
Wo claim that the opening of the mints
to silver will raise the price of silver
bullion by creating a demand for silyer
It will decrease the demand for gold,
thus decrease tho value of gold bullion ;
and bringing the two metals nearer to
gether. Then if 'gold refuses to circu
late, nud we think it necessary, take a
little gold out of the gold dollar and put
a littlo more silver into the silver dollar
and thus the question will be solved.
