Constant Efficiency
of Electric Motors
Surprise
Millworkers
Tne electric motor operates to its maxi
mum capacity without flinching. It
grabs a quickly added load without a
second's pause and proceeds with the
work
Workers in sawmills arid factories are
always surprised at the constant effi
ciency of electric motors, compared with
the performance of steam engines
Where the engine responds slowly to
the Visible power demands of the plant,
the electric motor responds instantly
This means greater output per hour and
greater output per day
In the above statement is ope of the
reasons that a?re making the application
of electric power universal

There are two essentials to tho
success of .factories. One Is tho na

means of distribution. With tho
harbor developc'd properly to admit

with railroad facilities affording n
means of distribution and with these
great natural resources and the vol

speakers at the banquet given by tho
Marehllcld Chamber of Commerce in
honor of Vice-president J. P. O'Brlon

Harbor and Its Possibilities." On
nrlBlng, ho remarked that ho could
not do the subject Justlco even In n
whole evening. In part Mr. Lcofo
Bald:
"I have beon on the Boy for about
ono year, nnd am glad 1 came. When
I came thero I failed to see why there
wns no railroad, and 1 still fall to

"It Is not necessary for mo to even
make mention of the undeveloped re
sources, nnd future possibilities of
this country or of the manly lot of
men to "be found here. Thoso thing
nro so self evident thnt I can add
nothing to thvlr sterling qualities.
"I will ns1 you to kindly listen to
a few statements I hnvo prepared
concerning Coos Bay '"Harbor
which you nre nil familiar:

tho mud Ib very enslly removed by n
suction dredge, ns much ns 100,000
cubic yards hnvlng been removed by
tho U. S. dredgo "Oregon" during ono
month Inst winter. I do not know of
any material In tho bottom of tho hay
but what can enslly bo removed by
dredging, 'which fact goes to demon
strate with what ease and economy
tho Ilnrbor of Coos Bny can bo read
ily dredged to nny prnctlcnblo depth
for tho benefit of navigation.
"Tho present government work on
Coos Bny consists of dredging by tho
U. S. dredgo "Orogon," nn 18 Inch
suction dredgo. Tho project extends
from tho O. A. Smith Mill nonrly to
North Point, nnd 'nlso Includes thn
'romovnl of tho North Slough, Pony
Slough nnd tho Empire shoals, it
1s generally 200 foot wldo, except for
ntrotches In front of Mnrshflcld nnd
North Bend whoro It is 300 feet nnd
over In width. Tho dredging Is to bo
completed so as to leavo 18 feet ho
1owsuenn lower low water. Over
one half qf the work Is dono nnd ut
mairy places whoro tho dredging wns
carried to nbout 18 feet, ovor 20 feet
of water below mean lower low wat
er Is found, which confirms tho theo
ry of tho eaBy scouring as tho result
of strong ebb tides, In tho inner har
bor of Coos Bny.
"On Tnesday this weok tho Nann
Smith passed Mnrshflcld on Its way
to tho, C. A. Smith Mill, at about 3:30
In tho afternoon, nnd on the follow.
Ing day, Wednesday, nt nbout 1120
In tho forenoon, It ngaln pasted
Marshflold on Its way to Bay Point,
California, with a 'Jargio cargo of
lumber, nnd drawing nbout 18 foot.
This ono thing Is very gratifying nnd
goes to confirm the possibilities of J
this harbor nnd to provo how easy It
can bo Improved to accomodate heav
ily laden ocean-going vessels.
"There hns been appropriated
$350,000 for a Hydraulic Sea-golni;

on down tho const, getting rondy for
Immcdlnto construction on tho first

officials of tho company- hnvo gono
down to Coos Bny country to look
ovor tho routo down tho const from
tho Wcstorn end of Lnno. Them
can bo no longer nny speculation nit
to what tho Southorn Pacific liiteuda

enough In tho word" of .1. P. O'Brinu
to bollovo thnt when ho Bays tho road?

I bollovo that for tho present com
merce thnt tho liar dredge, as onr
nuxlllary to tho present North" Jotty
will answer, but should tho coru

colvo further nnd possibly early consideration.

will ronoh over 330,000 tons, or
In other wordB tho commorco that

three-fold.
