TO OPERATE ROTH MILLS Bandon Mill Will Not Move To Toledo. IS TO COMMENCE AGAIN GEO. W. MOORE SETS AT REST .RUMORS. SHUT DOWN IN BANDON IS ONLY TEMPORARY. Since the Geo. W. Moore Lumber "Company of thisc ity has taken over tho Toledo Lumber Company's mill at Toledo there has been much spot ulation as to what would be done with the Bandon mill. Numerous wild ru mors have been circulated as to its having been sold to other parties, that it was goin to bo dismantled and moved to Toledo, etc., such reports even appearing in the Portland pa pers. In conversation with Mr. Geo. W. Moore, a representative of Tho Recorder was informed that there was nothing to any of tho rumors and the fact that tho cmopany had taken over tho Tolcao mill would have no effect on the Bandon mill whatsoever. The mill at Toledo has a capacity of about 75,000 feet a day ind Mr.- Mooro says there is no oc casion for. increasing its capacity at present, as it is amply able to cut all the lumber that is required at pres ent. Mr. Moore stated that just as soon as tho lumber market picked up suffi ciently to justify it the Bandon mill would start up again and bo oper ated as before. He has an option on lpenty of timber to keep the mill op srating for a number of years and this wlil be procured and operations started as soon as operations can bo comenecd at a profit. With this fact jn view all who have been so fearful of tho mill moving away, or shutting down permanently may rest easy. As an indication of the real condition of the lumber mar kot it is stated that there are 117 mills between tho Rocky mountains und tho Pacific ocenn, and of thse 13 arc nhut down, 10 aro running oc part timo and 58 on fu'l tuno. It will thus ! Feen that loss thin half of tho lumber mills aru running full time. It is not expected tl-nt this con dition will lost long ans as soon as the market becomes noltcr 3omo of tho mills will start up ami tho Mooro mill will bo among thu first ones, aa there is no better plant on tho cou3l and none that can operate moro eco nomically.
