Manufacturing
Industries.
Bandon Commercial
Company.
Within ten years from dow Bandon
will be one of the most important
manufacturing towns in this part of
tbe state. It doesn't take a prophet
to make this prediction. Almost
everything that nature does for a
manufacturing point baa been done
for t bis pl see, and only man's part
remains to be done, and be is at work
ou tbe job.
Already manufacturers bare seen
and seized upon tbe advantages here,
and there are now numerous plants
and more in sight,
A fleet of schooners and steamer*
are now kept busy between Bandon’
and California points, aud Portland
will wake up some day and send ves­
sels after this trade, Riverboats also
ply up and down tbe Coquille river
for forty miles, giving tbe farmers
aod ranchers transportation facilities.
A railroad is being built from tbe
main line of tbe Southern Pacific at
Drain to tap this rich region, and it
is said that the Santa Fe will bnild
tbrongb this country with a Imo from
Sau Francisco to Portland. Thus tbe
shipping facilities for manufactured
products are aud will be all that could
be desired.
Tbe climate at Bandon is the most
equable of any in tbe United Blates,
and factories can run all tbe year.
For fuel we bave wood and coal.
Tbia whole conutry is underlaid with
coal, and development of this indus­
try has hardly commenced. In many
places where development work has
been done, three and four strata from
throe to six feet thick overlay each
other. These coal Jguds lie imtuedi
ately upon, or so close to tbe (Jo.qjl'lle
river, that the coal can be put aboard
vessels at slight expense.
Tbe above are some of the reasons
why Bandon offers an attractive field
tof manufacturing enterprises. Fol­
lowing is a list of tbe plants Dow
located here:
Bandon Woolen Mills.
Bandon Manufacturing (Jo,
Salmon Cannery.
Broombandie Factory.
Wood-pipe Plant.
Bandon Foundry.
Brewery.

is a corporation consisting of t^e fol
lowing: Elbert Dyer Pres., Robt.
Frederick Jr. Sec., Geo. E. Howe
Manager, S F. office. They are en­
gaged in manufacturing white cedar
lumber, shingles and broomhaudles.
They arc doing a general warehouse
business, and are agents for ocean
going steamers which are at tbe pres­
ent time tbe S. S. Elizabeth and Oak­
land, vessels making regular trips be­
tween tbie port and San Francisco.
Mr. Dyer aud Mr. Frederick bave
virtually grown np with tbe town, tbe
former coming here with bis father
over 20 years ago; be has been identi­
fied with the advancement of nearly
all tbe commercial entorpises that
bave helped to build np tbe town.
Mr. Frederick at tbe age of sixteen,
took charge of tbe office and general
store of tbe Coquille Mill & Tug Co.,
at Parkersburg, then under tbe able
management pl Captain J. Parker,
one of our earliest pioneers. At tbe
age of 22 be assumed the management
of tbe steamers plying 00 tbe river
between Myrtle Point and this place.
After operating them successfully for
about six years, be sold out and
joined the Kloodyko rush of 18.18,
for tbe Yukon River, Alaska, and
during the following five years ran
as both master aud pilot uf river
steamers op I lip Yukon between Daw­
sun City and St. Michaels. For tbe
past three years fee has been identified
w^ tbe commorcjal advancement of
tbe town and ia not bere only to

help them grow.
Mr Howe, while being a compara­
tive stranger li>re ja well known San

With several large enterprises of I list

,S. F. company at tbe Hawaian

other at Prosper, three miles np the

put np about 19,000 cases of salmon
aud distributed about fl4,000 to tbe
fishermen along tbe river.
Tbe industry hpre is the second
largest in tbe state—being next to
the Columbia. Over 81,300 io licenses

Apples, cherries, pears, plums,
prunes and all kinds of berries do
well in this climate. Thousands of
gallons of wild huckleberries, dew­
berries and black cap raspberries are
gathered each year. We bave no

of tbe few places in tbe world where
they raise termless apples. Onr ap­
