t Ciiirtlliicr :J8 Veins Ago
It Is 38 yenrs ago Hint Captain X.
J. Cornwall nnd associates started
tlio present stngo line from Drain
to Coos Hay. A few weeks
now will seo the close of tlio boach
route, probably for all tlmo for tlio
coming of the railroad moans ti now
and quicker way of travel.
Hut nevertheless, tlio staKos have
aided materially In tlio development
of Coos Hay. Tlio Drain rotito at
ono tlmo was tlio popular road to
Clnrdlner and Coos Hay. It Is true
tlio Coos Hny Wagon Road was open,
but this was iiassablo olily nlhoitt
threo or fpur montliB of tlio year
and tlio other routo waB an all year
ono.
Xo Itouto Via 1'loiL'iico
As to the Floronco road, "you
could hanlly got nn oaglo In thut
way In tlio early days," nn Cajit. Corn
wall describes It.
Capt. Cornwall was In tlio city to
day and told Homo of tlio history per
taining to thy stngo route with which
ho tins been so lone connected.
When the Drain route was opened
tlio passengers generally stayed over
night at Gardiner, proceeding tlio
next day down the beach to Coos
Day.
I (.'nnllicr First Stop
Gardiner was a lively little town.
There woro soveral Mores, two naw
millB and plenty of nalooim there nl
that time. Sailing Bhips came In
for .frequent lumber cargoes.
At that tlmo gasollno bouts wcrn
unheard of but Btcamhontn bad been
in operation to Gardiner from very
early dayH. Passengers being tnkon
from Hardluor to Winchester bay In
row boats.
I'hihI Hulling Hunts
At tlio mouth of the river they
boarded tlio horso drawn stages and
en mo to Jnrvls Lauding whero nt
tho first, Balling liontB wero used to
bring' the passongors over to Km
jilro. Ilii t tho world do move and ij
yearn ago Oorst and Kinney put on
tho automobiles to carry paBHongors
up and down tho boach botweou Jnr
vls Landing uud the Umpqua. Hnso
lluo boats piled between Winchester
Jlay and Gardiner and it was tho first
of last May that Capt. Cornwall put
on tho Ford auto stages on tho beacn
from tho Umpqua to Floronro. Pro
yloiiBly this trado bad been handled
by tlio horBo drawn stages.,
Itlllll'OUll Stops SllgeN
"I think 30 dnys will nee tho rail
road open and bundling thin passen
ger traffic," Btatcd Capt. Cornwall.
"This will put us out of business.
Hut tho Drain stage routo probably
will always contluiio, for mull pur-
