Capitalizing Water
Medford, now enjoying a plentiful supply of
wonderful mountain water, such as Ashland has
enjoyed since the first settler (fame here, is going to
capitalize this fact. ;
Build beautiful fountains, emblazoned with dec­
orative lights; start an advertising campaign, with
the. city’s sparkling water as the main feature of
the advertisements; adopt a slogan for the city, em­
phasizing the cool, crystal water; talk about it all
the time—and there have already been several in­
terviews with Medford visitors to Portland in the
Portland newspapers extolling their water system.
These are only a few of the suggestions which
have been made in order to capitalize the city’s
water. And as one of the men stated in his sug­
gestion; “ Publicity is catching, too—and the world
would soon know this town for what it is.”
The ‘Daily Tidings does not print these few
paragraphs in jest nor to ridicule the enthusiasm
which our neighboring citizens feel since thé cool,
spring water has been trickling down their throats
in place of the rather inferior grade which they had
to endure for years. We are only expressing our
admiration for their enthusiasm and spirit. It is
catching, too, we will admit.
Ashland has capitalized its sparkling, bubbling,
refreshing, crystal mountain spring water /o r many
years and has the fountains which Medford is now
planning. In fact, our city has gone a little farther,
and has started to capitalise another brand of water
we have here—delightful, healthful and invigorating
Lithia water.
The Tidings holds that a little more enthnsiasm
about exploiting and capitalizing our Lithia water
should be innoculated into our system.
We admire the suggestion of the Medford citizen
relative to fountains so-muob tha twe Wonld even sug­
gest that Ashland could well emulate this suggest­
ion in connection with its Lithia water—in the im­
mediate future, not several years from now.
California’s Reciprocity
That they would not only commend the Cali­
fornia highway commission for the splendid work
being done in straightening the Pacific highway in
the Sacramento canyon, but also to diplomatically
suggest to this body that they apeed up this work,
was the message the unofficial committee from Cali­
fornia brought Wednesday./
California is doing a magnificent job in elimin­
ating the toutuous curves in the Sacramento canyon,
hut they are unquestionably several years behind
in their program in that? region, although “ Pop”
dates stated he had been assured the state would
build 15 miles of paved highway south from the
Oiegon boundary within a year.
Oregon, cooperating with its neighboring states
an the Pacific highway, has had an uninterrupted
stretch of paved road from boundary to boundary
for years, while California under the influence of
political juggling and delays, has left a long unpaved
unit at its northern boundary which Oregonians,
crossing the boundary, have had to endure, while
Californians, coming north, have had Oregon’s pav­
ed highway to use. That always appeared like poor
reciprocity to Oregonians.
Now, it is rumored that a long political con­
troversy is imminent as to whether the Pacific
highway route shall lie left as it is, or whether it
shall he rerouted via Montague. This will undoubt­
edly cause another long delay.
In eases like this, when political controversies
are certain to cause harmful delays, it would be
well to submit the question to an unbiased, fearless
civilian committee. The main point is to get the
unpaved link paved as quickly as possible, even
if it is necessary to divert some of the funds from
other more ]>owerful political subdivisions of the
