PRIVATE ENTERPRISE
'Thre exists a misunderstanding
about the exhibit building," soid .f. I).
Olwell, referring to the action in the
Commercial club relative to the club's
taking charge of tho enterprise. "The
exhibit building was built by prlvatt
parties and hns been maintained at my
own expeuso since built. The Rogue
Hi vor Land company hns paid alt the
expenses of cnrlng for the building nnd
collecting the exhibits, or furnishing
showcases and of entertaining exeunt
ions.
The building was built by money
subscribed by personal friends at my so
licitation nnd by myself. The lights
were furnished freo by the Condor Wa
ter k Power company through Colonel
Hay at my solicitation. I admit there
have been times when the exhibit was
not kept up in ns good shape as it might
have been, but all in all, it has had
fairly good care and been a great nd
vertisement to Medford, Today it ex
cells anything along the Southern Pa
