Coquille City is at the center o f the converging wagon road system o f Coos
Count v, and is at the head o f deep-water navigation,and in the central part of a vast body
o f rich, river bottom land, which is the source o f all true and enduring prosperity
The
country round about is filled with precious metals, minerals and coal to an unparalleled
extent, and is covered with a variety of timber that for quantity and quality is not ex
celled by that of any place on the Coast, if, indeed equaled.
As a dairying and stock-
raising country, and a sanitarium for those seeking health.it is bound to come to the front
rank. The fishing industry will prove an important factor, while the numerous mills and
factories, completed, in course of construction, and contemplated, will make the whole
county a buzzing hive of industry and wealth.
Coquille City is in the center, is the
most eligible and will enjoy all.
Its school, church, and society advantages are second
to none in the county. Building material is cheaper at this point than at any other in the
county. It has the advantages of a corporation, and is to soon have a mountain stream
of water run through it for protection against fire. Property reasonable.
