Tom Bennett at Portland
T. T. Bennett, attorney of Marsh
field, says the mountain drive from
that city to Grants Pass is more in
teresting in the winter than iri the
summer. “I just completed the trip
to Brookings via Grants Pass and
found the roads good and the scenery
a revelation. I have several times
made the trip in summer, but was
never as pleased with the journey as
this time. And I took this route only
because the coast road is difficult to
traverse.” Mr. Bennet said that
Marshfield will soon begin the erec
tion of a hotel which he thinks will
vie with the new hotel at Ashland as
the finest between Portland and San
Francisco. “The stock has all been

he said. Mr. Bennett is at the Im
