CHATEU LAKE HIGHWAY.
By far the most important work for Jh' oii county
that its delegation in the legislature can accomplish is the
securing of an appropriation for the construction of a
boulevard to Crater lake.
Crater lake is one of the world's wonders, and with prop
er facilities provided. for reaching it, will he visited by
i thousands every year. It will bo advertised ,-is no other
;one attraction will be, by the Southern Pacif.c and other
railroads, and will be better known than any place in the
northwest. 5 :
The time is coming, and that not so far off, when Oregon
will be famous abroad simply as the slate in wnitji Crater
lake is situated, as Arizona is known to millions only as
the site of the Grand Canon of the Colorado.' Nature has
given us this magnet for tourists. If we do not take ad
vantage of it we are to blame.
The first step needed is to make the lake accessible.
To do this a fine highway must be constructed, similar to
those in the Yellowstone and Yosemite. Tourists must hi
able to make Crater lake by automobile in a day, and this
can be done only by the expenditure of a large amount
of mcney.
County courts of Jackson and Klamath comities have
each agreed to appropriate $50,000 for the building of the
boulevard, provided the state will also expend a like sum.
The federal government; will spend a large sum in build
ing highways in the Crater Lake national mvk and in
the Cascade forest reserve, provided the other expenditures
sy state and county are made. Others interested ha(
igreed to contribute heavily.
All now depends upon n appropriation from the state.
Governor Chamberlain has agreed to recommend the ap
propriation in a special message. The Crater lake road
ommission, numbering some of the leading men of Ore
on, has promised to go to Salem to urge its passage. The
tate Good Roads association him :irp,.,.,l ),, ,,i.l flw.
lission. It is up to the people, commercial organizations
nd municipal governments of Jackson comity to lend
yery effort to secure its passage, and up to the Jackson
mnty delegation to see that the appropriation is made. '
The proposed 'highway does not concern Medford sole

)t alone the towns it: touches, but all other communities,
be entire county will feel the benefit of the advertising
id resultant tourist raffle; in fact the entire stale will
el the effect beneficially.
Jackson county's delegation could well afford to drop
. other proposed legislation, the lack of which causes no
ffering to the county, and devote itself to the securing'
this Crater lake road appropriation. The man with
.uifcu- iMu-poMe accomplishes things where !w man with
my irons in the fire fails; and if the delegation or any
mber of it can secure the appropriation he will have
ie something worth while and justified his election to
1 retention in the legislature.
