tual industrial awakening of the Rogue River \ alley. Ru
mor is rife of a score of projects that are to augment the activ
ites of Eden during the coming season. Inasmuch as all in
dustrial propositions, at some time or another, must exist in the
public mind as delightful hearsay, the hardened scoffer should
forbear to crush with satire the perennial boomlet. Some day it
is destined, if carefully nurtured and fostered by public senti
ment, to assume a golden bloom that will shed its grateful fra
grance of prosperity upon cynic and optimist alike. The Valley
of the Rogue, with the untrammeled power of a thousand Ti
tans racing through it to the sea, has such a future, ih e gruff
and glorious old hills, repositories of ages, will some day yield up
their secrets. Some day, when short-sightedness is a myth and
penny-wiseness a reproach, the Valley will bloom as never be
fore with orchards and alfalfa, watered by the unfailing flood of
the Rogue. The realization of th at time lies with the citizens
and land owners alone. They may retard or hasten the inevit
able development—in the measure of their blind disbelief or co
operative enthusiasm. This season is fraught with no more op
portunities than the la s t- b u t they are riper and the perspective
has dwindled. The Rogue River Valley is about to enter into
its heritage.
