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.
