COQUILLE RIVER
We have been informed on good
authority that the North Pacific
Steamship Company is making ar
rangements to include the Coquille
river among the ports out cf which
they operate steamers, there being
in course of construction at the Wil
lamette Iron Works, Portland, a
fine steel steamer which will cost
$ 110 ,0 0 0 and is designed to ply
between Eureka, California, and
Portland, calling in at the mouth of
the Coquille, thus giving us direct
communication with tbe state me
tropolis and an excellent market
for a portion o f the products we
wish to ship. Portland could use a
large quantity of coal which could
be furnished from mines along the
river.
Owing to the fact that the new
steamer will not be on the run for
some time, arrangements are made
for the steamer Newport to go on
that route a.id take charge of the
business until the other boat is
ready to run.
This company will also place a
good river steamer on the Coquille-
Bandon run. The boat is xio feet
in length, carries 15 0 passengers
and has a speed of 18 miles per
hour.
This will be a great addition to
our already good river service.
The boat will be on the river in
January, weather permitting.

A large consignment of bricks
was landed at our wharf Thursday,
brought up by the big schooner
Oregon lor the new hank building
now in course of construction. This
is the largest schooner which has
beeu brought this fat up the river,
but she experienced 110 trouble as
she was drawing but a little more
than eight feet of water, which is
less than the tug Klebyam, which
towed her up, draws.
The appearance of the Oregon at
the dock created considerable in
terest among many of the new
comers in this city, as it has been
several years since there has been
shipping from here by sailing craft
of any consequence.
When the
Coquille mill shipped its output by
sea-going vessels we have seen
several at one time lined up taking
on lumber.
During the manage
ment of the mill by Bunch, Ben-
uett it Co., there were at one t'me,
five loading at our wharf.
With the removal of two or
three shoals by the dredging of
some sand and the blowing out of
the sunken trees, which caused the
sand to iorm the bars, this vessel
could carry 800,000 feet of lumber
or its equivalent in freight of any
sort from this place, while any
steamer that could come in ever the
bar could land at this dock.
The
snags seem to be the source of llie
greatest trouble, it being almost
impossible for steamers to get
through wknout their propellers
becoming entangled in them.
Ia
fact, if the snags were removed, the
problem of the depth o f water
would he solved, with the exception
of a short distance on the lower
river where the channel is wider
than is necessary and the scouring
force is, to a degree, lost.
This
could be remedied by a system of
piling which would confine tbe
water, causing it to cut the sand
and silt that settles, forming the
shoal,
