New Logging Road
Nears Miller's Basin

Toledo, Or, June 25.-The Miller
logging road now lacks but 1000 feet
of being constructed into the Siletz
Basin. The road is in good shape and
trains are hauling logs to the dump
just west of the town on Depot Slough
where they are floated down to the
mills 1t is understood the Warren
Spruce company will get out about 12,
100000 feet more of spruce for. the
government otter which the local mills
will handle the spruce over that road.
The Warren Spruce company has be-
gun driving piling on the upper part
Fof Alsea Bay, where the water is shall
low, for a railroad bridge to connect
Bayview on the north side with Wald-
port on the south side of the bay. Surs
veyors are in the field far below the
spruce timber working down the beach
toward Florence and it is believed
that such work means the extension of
the Yaquina-Alsea railroad down the
beach to Florence or to connection
with the county spruce forests.
