No Other City Visited by Mayor
Canon Shows Progress and Gen

Local Advancement Is Rapid
FAME OF THIS CITY IS
SPREAD FAR AND NEAR
Officials of Other Towns Can Not
Understand How City of 10,000
Can Do So Much
That Medford roflectH more prosperity,
In erecting mora btlslnesH blocks, build
ing moro resiliences, doing more In a
general novelopment way than any city
ho visited In California, while Inspect
Iiib pavements on n recent trip, Is the
statement of Mayor V. It. Canon, who
Iiub Just returned from an extended trip
In company with several city councllmen
throughout thu neighboring state to the
south. Wherever ho went ho kept an
eyo open for Improvements and, while
he was in larger cities, he found none
that seems to carry such n pronounced
air of progress and general piosperlty
as his home city.
While away, Mayor Canon visited a
'largo number of towns, Including a
number In central nnd southern Califor
nia, whose fame have been flung broad
cant over tho land. However, he states
that all o fthem seem to bo standing
still, when compared with strides being
made by this city.
little Advancement.
"I was surprised," states tho mayor,
to travel for blocks In tho streets of
various California cities which I thought
were doing wonders In tho way af ad
vancement, not to nolo moro building
going on. Medford Is outclassing them
In tho number of Improvements, tho
class of Improvements and In general
growth. While many of tho pluces I
visited were much larger than Medford,
they did not seem to havo tho snap nnd
bustle which aro manifest in this city,
wnen I told officials In these cities of
what Medford was doing along municipal
nnd commercial lines of Improvement,
!,.,. r..nun.l in believe me. They did not

.M.i ,nrr, tiinf Mixlfnnl nad snent that
much simply ub a 'starter' they could not
answer mo.
"In towns In southern California
which have been ndvertlsed tho country
over for their marvelous growth nnd
constant improvement there seemed to
bo a general halt. There were no new
buildings going up as is the case In
Medford. One could rldo for blocks
throughout tho resldenco district with
out seeing new homes In course of erec
tion, nnd where could they do thnt In
this city? Medford has a strido that Is
not equaled anywhero by any placo that
1 visited. .... ,
"I found that Medford Is better known
over tho coast than ever before. Wher
ever I went I was asked question after

noted for progressiveness. She Is stand
