No part of Oregon is attracting as much uttention as
Medford. It is the best advertised of all sin-di cities, and
it has the richest natural resources.
Probably more men of financial prominence have vis
ited Medford within the past few months than ever he
fore in her history. They have come, to she up oppor
tunities, with a view to investing capital in the develop
ment of latent resources.
Without blare of trumpet or herald of press agent,
more captains of industry from eastern states have re-
cently looked over this f ield than ever visited a single see
irn nf fWirnti iii the same lentrth of time before. And
more are headed this way.
What the result will be is of course problematical at
this stage, but in all likelihood VM) will see the develop
ment of coal mines begun upon a large scale, the extension
of the railroad into the timber belt and the establishment
of lumber transportating plants, the formation of huge
irrigation enterprises and the erection of a smelter and
construction of a railroad to the copper mines.
Medford is destined to have the greatest growth of any
city in Oregon. With 50,000 acres of orchard now planted,
as many more in prospect, and countless other resources
on the verge of development, she will grow as no city in
Oregon has ever grown. i
PAYS TO BE IK DEBT.
Rival cities are pointing to Medford 's indebtedness as
a drawback to locating here. The indebtedness was neces
sary to make the city attractive as a place of residence.
No city without a debt ever amounted to anything, any
more than a man without debts accomplishes much in
the world of business. Necessary debt is a sign of pro
gressiveness. f-i If
Money is worth from .10 to 100 percent a year to peo
ple who are developing the city and count ry. The city se
cures it by bonding at five per cent. Public improvements
must be made and the money, if expended properly, brings
results that justify the expenditures. It would he fobty-to
try and make the improvements on a cash basis, wl.t'ii the
money is worth more for other purposes, and future gen
erations should bear their part of the burden.
