The two logging camps, located in
the territory adjacent to Coquille,
and whose employees for the mo*t
part live here, are responsible to m
great extent for the increased busi­
ness activity in CoquiHe last year.
At the camp of the Coos Bay Log­
ging Co., on Cunningham creek, nortn

126 men, and the monthly output
there is 4,000,000 feet
Oao. H. Chaney’s oamp on Glen
Aiken creek has not yet begun to
cut timber, but he expects to get

Much of the work done there last
year, when the payroll approximated
(100,000, was in construction—rail­
road, bridges, oamp bouses, etc. He

river are in close proximity.
Last week the crew there loaded
1,200,000 feet of logs on to the cars.
These we;e logs from the North and

In keeping with the advancement

to as a contributor to the refinement

The GrahamV-Hall, which was re­
cently completed and opened is one
of the finest dance hails in the state.
Mr. Graham has gone to great ex-
penes in the construction of this hall,
the floor alone, which is built of ma-

This floor ii said by experts to be the

it is doubtful if there ia another hall
