Medfoi-d Man Boosts Project.
Medford, Ore., June 3. 1914.
u r.ungi , i wisn to say a 1
word with reference to the most wor- I
thy project Ashland has ever launch
ed since the city wa3 founded.
It s superfluous to use any further
words in support of the mineral
springs proposition as the splendid
argument advanced in the several
communications already published
have covered the ground so thorough
ly that the few objectors apparently
have not tried to answer them in the
papers, the columns of which were as
free for one side as the other. But
as a former resident of the vicinity of
Ashland, and a friend to the city and
a booster for the entire section of
country called southern Oregon and
Rogue River Valley, 1 think it is right
to congratulate the people of Ashland
in taking the step which in my hum
ble judgment will do even more for
the city and valley than its promoters
at present predict. It is fortunate
indeed that the new springs were dis
covered and that the enterprise was
started the year before the great fair
opens.
I note by the last issue of the Tid
ings that a meeting is to be held Sat
urday night. This is right and there
should be a big attendance and all
the issues of the matter discussed,
but 1 have no doubt of the outcome of
the election on June 9.
With best wishes I am.
Yours respectfully,
J. M. BROOKS.
Real Sadness of Graduation.
All through the years of primary
and early high school life the culmin
ation of the pupils' ambition is the
time when as a graduate he shall step
forth from the doors of the school
which has held him in its rigid grasp
for so long. It is the thought that
inspires him to work and strive not
to lose hope and become disappoint
ed. However, when that time ar
rives the feelings that come upon
the graduate are very different. It
is a sort of joy and sadness combined.
One cannot help feel glad that he has
at last got his foot on the first rung
of the ladder of success. There is
yet a deep-seated feeling of sadness
that is hard to pispel. For this is
the time that the old classmates of
his youth will begin to be no more,
unless it is in the memory. The old
class gatherings, at which everyone
wrangled in good-natured stubborn
ness, the class controversies, the im
pressive lecture after an attempt at
"hooky," or the kind and patient
sympathy of a teacher in time of
youthful troubles, all come sweeping
back to the graduate, who knows
that he cannot any more partake
such wine of care-free happiness. He
must think that now, as is the order
of things, bis name and small fame
will soon be forgotten by the heed
less, headstrong, oncoming rush of
students. He will always remember
the happy days spent in the old
school, but they will not give a mo
ment's thought to the joys of yester
day but will only think of those joys
that are to come.

What Ashland May Learn of Kails
had and Its Celebrated Waters.
Editor Tidings: In view of the
fact that Ashland holds, within the
hollow of her hand, the opportunity
of either making or breaking herself
for all time to come by her vote at
the polls tomorrow (Tuesday), the
following facts respecting the cura
tive qualities of the celebrated Karls
bad waters of Bohemia, Austria, can
not but prove interesting to Ashland
at large. The information is con
tained in an advertisement that ap
peared in the Illustrated London
News of May 9, 1914, and very con
cisely tells its own story.
With the publicity tho Southern
Pacific stands ready to give Ashland
the moment the lithia and other
springs reach the confines of the ity,
there Is good reason for believing
that approximately, at least, our city
may become a second Karlsbad. Ash
landers would do well to "read,
mark, learn and Inwardly digest" the
following facts that last year over
150,000 visited KarlBbad for its
cures: there were 250,000 tourists
and visitors and the diseases treated
were abdominal, intestinal, liver,
kidney and bladder complaints, be
sides diabetes, gout, rheumatism,
uric acid, diathesis, etc. There are
six large bathing establishments con
nected with the Institution and in
clude shower, carbonic acid, steam,
mud, hot air and other baths, and on
the grounds there are Swedish gym
nastics, massage, beautiful forests,
walks, theatres, concerts, tennis, golf,
horse racing, and English church,
and the abode of a consulate. These
waters have ajrain and aeain cured
the most aggravating diseases, and,
once given the chance, "Little Ash
land" will do its utmost to relieve
the sufferings of all who may wor
ship at its shrine.
Ashland, to the fore, and demon
strate your prowess to the world as
a scenic and health resort, and
thankful hearts will arise and call
you blessed. II. G. GILMORE.

Ashland mineral springs. Those
world travelers who have heard men
tion of them, stand up and be count
ed! Although I have been brushing
around over the west for many years
and always having in mind strange,
peculiar and useful resources, it is
news to me, if it be true, that Ash
land has mineral springs worthy of
mention.
A few years ago a line in a local
paper mentioned as a piece of "news
of the state" that Ashland was going
to develop her springs. So I proceed
ed to hunt up a couple of Ashland na
tives who have come done to Coos to
make some investments hereabouts,
and made inquiry about what the
news item referred to.
They jumped on me, figuratively
speaking, with both feet. They said
in and about Ashland were the finest
mineral springs on earth, bubbling
out of the foot of the Cascade range,
Mount Shasta and nearby foothills. A
variety of waters lithia, soda, iron,
magnesia, sulphur, radium and all
such with their varied combinations
and the valuable medicated mud
which goes with them, and either
cold, lukewarm or boiling.
They wanted to know the reason
for my ignorance of these conditions
and I explained that such do not ap
pear on the map, are not of record in
the daily press, the Southern Pacific
literature, or on the geological atlas
issued by Uncle Sam; that I had
friends and companions who had
lived in those parts for years and they
had not made mention of such valu
able assets.
Assuming that there is some merit
of truth in what these Ashlanders as
sert, then why in "Sam Hill" and for
the good of the American people and
Ashland in particular, don't the peo
ple over in that valley of dreams say
something? Get up and "holler!"
Say that you have all the resorts for
health and worldly enjoyment laid in
the deep and tilent shade.
This mineral spring asset, where
the afflicted in health may come to
be restored, where the rheumatic and
gouty may again regain their youthful
elasticity of joint and limb, or the
man who hasn't digested a decent
meal since he was a boy can get a
new set of the various organs put
into working commission again, is
something worthy of mention in a
loud and certain voice.
We know where Ashland appears
on the map, which means that it has,
perhaps, the most beautiful and at
tractive environments of any spot in
America. Shasta, the broad, flat sum
mit of the Cascade range with the
Mountain lakes thereon, over the hill
the inland seas of Klamath, Emi
grant and tho Applegate, the old
Jacksonville diggin's, the sugar pines
and mountain parks, the Rogue and
its valley of fruits and flowers, and
Crater Lake, the gem of all; good
highways, congenial people, and the
Fountains of Youth. Tell it to the
world that they may know, and the
world will call on you. The pilgrims
from Hillah might bring along a jug.

Tree in Plaza
Planted in 1877
Charles Chitwood was In the city
last week visiting old friends. He
Is one of Oregon's native sons, his
father being one of the first drug

gaged in business for many years
with Judge Watson.
Dr. Chitwood and Mr. Watson to

near tho fountain about 1877 or
1878, the exact date not being re
corded. The first Issue of the Tld
IngB was Issued thirty-nine years ago
from a small room In the rear of the
drug store, given for the purpose by
Messrs. Chitwood and Watson. The

Beeson, now of Talent, and the third
by Judge Watson. Several years later
the drug store and printing office
were burned and the present files of
the early issue now in the possession
of this paper were preserved and pre
sented to the paper by Mr. Beeson.
The drug store was then in a frame
building located on the lots between
the Postal telegraph office and Hos
ier's cigar store on East Main street.
General Phil Sheridan was a visitor
in the city only a few days before the
fire and visited Dr. Chitwood, being
acquaintances in the very early days
of Pacific coast settlement at what Is
now Sheridan, Ore. General Sheri
