It finds many handsome business blocks, a .magnificent hospital and a public library. Cluster lights adorn the business center. 1 lie bett hotels in the state welcome (he traveler. Jn short, iledford has made good iLs promise as the most metropolitan small city on the coast, the most attractive and the most convenient. .Jackson county's lead among the counties is even more pronounced than iMedford's among the towns. It is known far and wide as the. most progressive county in Oregon. .In everything Jackson county leads ifie proces sion, whether it bo horticulture, good roads building, cli mate or resources. Tho era of speculation passed away in the Rogue River valley over a year ago, and the era of development is upon us. Nineteen hundred and twelve will witness the expenditure of large sums in county highways as well as in continued improvement of cities. Jt will see the exten sion of the Pacific & Kastern over the Cascades to a con nection with the Oregon Trunk. Jt will watch. the con struction of a smelter at the Blue Ledge. It will behold tho oxlcnsions of irrigation systems, it will look upon the further establishment of lumber mills and factories in the timber belt, and (he opening up and development of many mines. It will see the continued subdivision of the big farm into the small tract and the planting of Addi tional orchard and garden area. Nineteen hundred and twelve, in brief, will witness the harvesting of the banner fruit, crop in history and the inauguration of many enterprises for the utilization of the natural resources which so thickly sprinkle this rogion. The future is bright with promise. The resources are here. It is time to talk good times, tp got in and boost and make good times, for we have (he iroods and if 1012 is not the record year in the history of southern Oregon, wo will have failed to use our opportunities. ' itli optimism, courage and hope, The Mail Tribune speeds the old year out and the new year in and wishes its many renders a prosperous and happy Nineteen Hundred and Twelve.
