UKANK. ttQllIO i'liivs with her own winds'' is the nut(o of Oregon. 11 is truer or southern Oregon than of any other por tion of the state. Only hy her own efforts has the Kogue Kiver valley sueeeeded in accomplishing anything her own wings are still her sole motive power. The initiative for any development or industrial enter prise that succeeds must he hoinc-born. As long as the community al'feeted is .satisfied with things, as they tire, the world is not going to interfere. Whether Bedford and the valley are going to awaken from the lethargy of the past two veal's, finally recover from the period of liquidation and readjustment that fol lowed the era or exploitation and inflation, depends upon the people themselves. Shall we eontinue to crawl or shall we attempt a flight with our own wings i The surrounding cities are putting forth every effort to build up themselves and the surrounding country. Ash land has voted $17f),CK)0 for the municipal development of her wonderful mineral springs to make the city famous as ji watering resovt. Grants Pass has voted $'200,000 bonds for the construction of a railroad to the coast and has com pleted and in operation the first ten-mile unit of the rail road. TJoseburg has also voted some $-100,000 for a rail road to the coast and is trying to finstnee such a project. Two projects are' in process of submission to the people of the valley the construction of an irrigation system to increase tenfold our production, and the development of one ot bur greatest natural resources timber. Repeated efforts have been made in the past to secure the necessary acreage to sign up for water rights to justify tho construction of an irrigation system. They have re sulted in failure, principally because the holders of idle land refused to contract for water, preferring: to hold for speculative purposes and reap the profit of unearned in crement due to the efforts and enterprise of neighbors. It is now proposed to create tin irrigation district, bv which means an irrigation system could be easily financed without burdening any one, and the cost be borne by the community as a whole, by the idle land sis well as the culti vated, which would force the sale and cultivation of specu lative holdings. The irrigation district proposal will probably be fought by the large holders of property, who will neither utilize their idle land themselves nor sell it at figures that will permit any one else to farm it at a profit. 1 1 would be a God-send to the valley to freeze such land hogs out and place idle men upon the idle land, thus increasing many fold the production, population and prosperity of the community. After waiting for many years for some of our non-resident millionaire timber owners to construct lumber manu facturing plants and thus check the flow of our own money from the country as well as furnish a payroll for our local workmen, it is finally realized that if we want such an in dustry we must start it ourselves. Accordingly, one of the local lumbermen, Edgar Hafer, who managed the only box factory ever operated in the valley, states that he is formu lating a practical proposal for the construction and opera tion of a sawmill and box factory, furnishing rites, machin ery and equipment, half the capital, providing the com munity furnishes the other half; promotion stock to be eliminated and control to rest in the hands of stock sub scribers. His propose! will shortly be in shape for publi cation. All large tracts of Jackson county timber are owned by non-residents, the owners playing a watching and waiting game watching to discourage manufacturing and devel opment, waiting to force out competition, freeze out the little fellow and buy timber at a sacrifice, thus cleaning up greater profits than by operation. An average of $200,000 a year is sent out of the valley for lumber. It goes to keep up payrolls for the IJooth Kclly mills in the Willamette valley for the (Jlendale mills, for the Grants Pass and other mills. Not a stick of lumber is cut from the twenty-odd billion feet of merchantable timber available in Jackson county. Not a single one of the million boxes of fruit sent out in the average year, is a box made in Jackson county. All this industry, with its payroll, is lost to the county. This condition cannot last. As long as it does exist we shall never have abiding prosperity. Everyone must help check it, and this can be done by helping' finance Mr. Hater's project. V Vr After waiting for several years for someone, to start a cannery, last spring Bedford citizens decided to start one themselves, circulated a subscription paper, turned the proceeds over to a local man, who has operated the first season most successfully. What was done in a small way in the cannery enterprise can be successfully done in a larger way in the lumber business. rioth city and valley need the payroll that is being sent away for lumber. The workingman needs the opportunity for iabor, the merchant needs the additional trade and every line of industry needs it. It will be a step in the reawakening of Med ford, the de velopment of the valley. Got behind it for tho Lord helps those who help themselves. We have been crawling long enough let us Jly with her own wings. D TURNS 001 OFFER 10 MEET BARREAU IN HALIEO AI PORIS STOCKHOLM, Sweden. Nov. Jl.
