BOOSTER MEETING
(Continued from Page 4)
Biibcrlptlons to the stock of the
Grants Pass and Rogue River rail
road, W. B. Sherman said:
"I think the people of our local
ity should be very glad of the priv
ilege of subscribing to this stock as
an Investment. I don't think It
should be considered that this com
pany Is asking for a bonus. With
the lineup of lands and townsltes
the common stock should be worth
at least five for one In a short time,
nnd Innsmuch as the road Is going
to run through a locality that will
yield very heavy tonnage, the pre
ferred stock should soon be at par;
nnd as I understand It, they only ask
HO cents on the dollar, with the
privilege of buying It In at $1.05,
which would leave the purchaser 1G
per cent addition to the 7 per cent
dividends that he would draw.
"If I had money to Invest I would
rather have this from what I know
'f the lands they have purchased
and their value In the Rogue River
valley, that the railroad runs
through; I would much rather have
them than government or any muni
cipal bondB that I know of.
"Any man that would not take
the amount of stock that would be
reasonable for his circumstances
would appear to be lacking in con
fidence In the country In which he Is
doing business. It seems to me that
It Is up to the people of this local
ity to grab up this stork: First, as
an Investment, and, second, to show
that we have confidence tn our local
ity, and, third, If one cared to call
It a bonus, It certainly Is worth the
Investment as such. In the first
place they are not asking for any
thing until they have given us ten
times the value received. A major
ity of the business and professional
men of Grants Tass will no doubt
profit one thousand dollars each
anc upwards before the first ten
per cent would be payable, and like
Bums In proportion before the other
payments are required.
In my estimation this proposl
Hon shows as clean cut as anything
i ever saw put before the people,
