meeting being purely political.
Rev. A L. Crlm, pastor M the First
Christian church of Ballard, was named
aa chairman of the state central com
mittee. Rev. W. M. Kellogg, postmaster

The famous Coquille valley empties i countless rich products into Bandon
every day The San Francisco business tmen : believe in the destiny ofwhat is
comings and are sure enough of the. present to place another boat on the Frisco
Bandon run, making three boats a week , between Bandon and the Golden Gate
city. Every boat arrives loaded, and departs from Bandon with a full cargo of
freight and passengers, yet Portland has not yet awakened to the fact that a Port-land-Bandon
boat line would pay ; though some of the representative men of the.
Rose City visited Bandon four years ago and carefully investigated the feasibility
of a boat line. , ' 't-l '' '.'"'-SI ; : ' ' , "
A FEW WISE ONES have awakened, however, and are quietly buying up the snaps
inside the city limits of Bandon. Just now there is one golden opportunity to make an in
vestment in thU prosperous little coast city that will bring large returns on the investment,;
if taken at once. It must be true, because when one caoitalist buvs two whole blocks Just as -
an investment, and others buy equally as much, while a large number of men have gone down 1
there in the last twenty days, and report things much better than the Portland public antici-
pated, it must be the place for a lirst-ciass investment.
SWEENEY'S FIRST ADDITION TO BANDON offers to all themosti desirable in
vestment for conservative investors. This beautiful tract of property lies in an ideal location
within the city limits. It's just like one buyer of one-half block stated: "I believe It's the
best realty buy I have ever made. I shall buy more of this property in a few days, if it is
not all taken."
IT WILL PAY YOU to investigate at once. Call at the office and see the actual photo
graphs taken of Bandon, the scenic beach and the famous Coquille valley.' Get the booklet that
will tell you where you can make the best investment of your life. If you are out of the
