Sawmill project delayed to next spring near Eugene
The Storey Bracher sawmill on the Bangs Park tract northwest of Eugene is postponed until next year due to transportation difficulties with the Southern Pacific and hopes for a Eugene to Siuslaw railroad. Company officials, led by Senator H. Bingham, remain committed and will proceed with preliminary arrangements to be ready for erection when building season resumes. The firm owns timber lands and a sending site, and may engage in railroad work to improve transport if needed.
