TUB MEDFORD DAILY TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. THURSDAY, APRIL 1, 1900. Bedford Daily Tribune Official Paper of the City of Mediord. Piililishcd every ovcninir except Sunday. MEDFORD PUBLISHING COMPANY Ukokge Putnam, Editor and Manager. Admitted as Second-Class Matter in the Post of i'ice at Medtord, Oregon. ' SUBSCRIPTION RATES: One month by mail or carrier. . . .J0.60 Quo year by mail IS.00 .1 TIIOrSASD HOLLAItS' 1! I'AV A ll I Vr uin.rlr julvcrtisenient over put out hv any city has iittniclfd tli.' iiltciM ion thai the Mod ford Cmiiiiicrcia club's challenge of 1 )i H that no city in America has an ,,...1 wuMiivw I I'ilinlarv to it within as small an J MiOl v mi' 1 area as has .Med ford. The challenge has never I n accepted, and is not likely to he. One town in Texas made claims, hut failed to pro duce the proof. The challenge reads as follows: "One Thousand dollars' reward-One thousand dnl ; lars' reward will he paid l.y I he undersigned to any person who can showhy authentic testi ny that any city or town in the I'nited Slates, outside of the forty-mile circle in dicated al.ove. has, trihutary to it. within a ten mile radius, a twenty mile radius, a thirty mile radius or a forty mile radius, iis many diversified resources as Med ford, Oregon, has within Hie corresponding radius. Meil ford Commer cial Cluh." What are these resources that we challenge the world to emialf They are many ami diversified. Few are developed. More are in process of dcevlopment. Any one of a dozen that might he named, properly developed, .justify the ex istence of a city larger than Medford. All together prom ise ii certain future for Medford. hi ighter t han that of any other city outside of Portland, in Oregon. It, is only a iics tioii of lime, and time is on the wing. The principal resources are: Horticulture, agriculture, .stockraising, coal, gold, copper, limher, granite, sandstone, marhie, lime, cement, mineral springs, cinnahar, iron, sal moil, oil, Crater Lake, climate and a host of others. in order that newcomers and prospective investors may secure an adequate idea of the resources tributary to Med ford and the Rogue River valley, ihis paper will publish a series of fifty brief editorials on fifty resources of Med ford and the Rogue River valley, the material for which will be authentic and secured from experts engaged in the developing of the various resources. If at the conclusion. anyone can name a city with as many natural resources, and prove the same by authentic testimony, The Tribune will add 1(111(1 to the .f 1(100 offered by the ( 'oinmercial club. A'A'IT CIUCII.ATIO.X .1. I A . 1 -;.. The Tribune has a new' circulation manager M iss Mil dred Clemens who, on April 1, succeeded Homer Rothcr mel, who has hail the cont fact for city delivery for the past year, giving subscribers very satisfactory service. The Tribune has grown so that it now requires the undivided attention of a circulation manager, handling onlv The Tribune. ' 1 2 JJ Miss Clemens is well known in Medford, having con ducted the Portland Journal's educational contest here the past two summers. Since then she has been in the Jour nal office as assistant to the circulation manager, and is familiar with all branches of the work. Sh. had numer ous offers from other papers, but chose Medford because it is the best small city in ( (regoti, and the Tribune because it. has a stale-wide reputat ion as a progressive paper. She expects to double the already large bona fide circulation within the next few months. City subscript ion accounts up to April first are paya ble to Mr. Rothermol. After that dale to The Tribune, which, through Miss Clemens, will handle its own delivery. WHAT PAPERS SAY I Mr.llW.I M;,il.
