Larflc Dclcfjalion From Grants Pass
and Ashland Promised for Wed
nesday's Gct-ToQcthcr Session of
Valley Communities.
Aim Is to Divert Travel to Small Cit
ies and Have People Visit Rogue
River Towns.
t "Josephine county will conio t"
.Mcdford with n large delegation of
representative men ami women on
Wednesday, the loth," rcmarkcil Tom
Itichnrdson upon bis return from
Grants Pass today. He centinued:
"Ashland will nlso bo hero . in
goodly numbers, nnd it now devolves
upon Muilford to get busy, urging
the presenoe of thu commanding men
and women of nil the other commu
nitios of the Ilogite Itivcr valley.
"This mooting hhould be just n be
ginning of n continued movement
whioh will unite all the interests of
this valley," continued Mr. Itichnrd
son. "The Rogue Uiver valley must look
tlio fncts in the face. Extremely lit
tle travel stops at any station in tho
vnlley. Most of the travel is from
city to eity or from San Francisco to
Portland mid Portland to San Frau
eweo. Now the only wny to help out
Ibis situation is active work hero at
home."
Vrt ntlint nnrnmnnitv in liu. nnimt
knows the game better than the peo
ple of the Kogue.
"Seventy-five per cent of the peo
ple who visit Ilogite Itiver vnlley
points leave home with that inten
tion. They buy their tickets with
that purpose in view.
"Complaining nbout tho railroads
do no good, but do n lot of harm by
exotisitig your homo folks from do
ing their duty.
"Hlnmiug another community for
your misfortunes only udvertiscs you
ns n coward.
"Coni)ctition between Unguis River
valley points is helpful, but the con
stant hummer leaves dents that hurt.
"Thoro nro many good things to
eomu out of this convention next
Wednesday. Medford need not spend
one dollar iu unturtuiuing her visit
ors they don't expect :t. Thov coino
ns neighbors for n business confer
ence, lllowing money upon such oc
casions hurts more than it helps. Let
Medford men and women nttond the
mooting nl the Xutntorium Wednes
day afternoon nt 1:.'I0 und remain
during the session.
"How wo are to stop the people tit
Rogue River vnlloy points will bo dis
cussed. "How money can bo had for tho
small fanner will bo explained. Out
big citios on tho const can take euro
of themselves; let us people tho farm
