The resolutions, in a short his t'Jiiral sketch show that the Ore gon caves were first discovered by a Williams Creek resident, and. ih;a development of ihe Williams Creek valley has heeh retarded for years, by a Hlturt-slhted policy of their own Ciitinly court. It is :iIfd shown that thn initial slt'ps for tile sei-urin of thn cut off were taken (y Williams Creejc people, who came to local intt'ivnts, SHekinh aid aftt't tliej' had been re fused assistance by the Josephine County Coin. The resolution Is as follows: , To whom It may com-rii; Greeting.": In the year of 1874 a resident of Williams Creek vallt-y, Klijah Davidson, who spent his life in t h is va i ley, who wa s i k rea t hunter and trapper, was hunting In. the mountains and had wound ed a hear, and by following it. he was rewarded by trailing it to its den, which proved to be the mouth of the now famous On-fion Caves. Mr. Davidson. came back to' the settlement and reported his find, and he had neighbors, soma of whom still reside here, organ ized and explored his find ; also began at once to build the first trail to this great nutuut wonder, which Is now visit iil annually by ' thousands of local people and tourists from every state and na lioii. Soon a f t er 1 he d isco very, every pffori was made to interest people i in this natural wonder and tho federal government was preva ild ' upon to help eonstruct a better trail, and finally a highway was demanded anil ufter several sur veys were made, all showing that tho 'Williams ereek, side was both tho shortest and -' tho -'cheapest route to. take 'from every point (!rantn Pass being several miles nearer by way of Williams, still ttn roatl by the manipulation of our neighbor, - was built on the Illinois valley side, making a one way road, so all travel would b required to go and come through ;rants Pass and thev. could cab'h them coming and going. Nov, as the Williams valley is a progressive, country, we wanted to have a share of the progress I hot comeH from good roads, and asked our county court and the commercial clubs of (limits Pass to assist in getting a route thru the valley, but we were repeatedly turned down, so as a last resort, we feot the Med ford chamber of commerce and a groat many of her leading citizens to see our condition and showed her what an . advantage it would be as a freight route to the coast. They took up onr fight and are nobly carrying it to a successful end. and are going to build a road that will give them and us a high way that will open up and develop t his valley, such as we have not dreamed of. We are now rendy to make on accurate and thorough survey, which has never been done in a satisfactory way before; the last survey was just a prtext as the surveyors were never on the last two-thirds of the route and was just guess work and was not thor- oiigh. so it w;s ns nothing as far as telling anything. Medford has been wrongly ac cused by the papers of firants Passj In that she was trying to steal j htr thunder, hv Irving to get a ! route to the Caves. Now .Med ford will Rave about Itn miles each way to the Caves and to Crescent ( ii v wliii-h is a trreat saving. It will open up a market for iheirj produce In the coast cities; will! save near one-third in freight rates, both to and from coast cities. Tt will give Williams resi-j dents an outlet for nil their pro-i duce. Jt will settle up our vacant I lands. It will Increase the amount j of taxable proerty by settling up and developing n large timbered , area of our country. We tried to get our own county court to1 help us. but after every effort we could brtng before them, and afur this valley and the Holland district- hail ele. ted a judge who prombed by everything that he would nee that we had a sU.tte! deal, and that he was for building the road, and after his tde.-ii.ni lie cornea out and turns tail. There i was nothing left to do but to n to Medford nd throw our support to thetn, and thi is -mentioned 1o show it was not Medhud Who first asked our support. We went to Medford and found ft lends there. j Nov as this inittT in to go be fore the Highway Commission, the I 8. Forestry department and th Bureau of ;od Koads, Therefore, be It resolved: That the Williams Creek Grange N-. 399 of about Ufi member do con demn the action?! of nur cnuntv court and also the Commercial club of Crania Pusa for the rait Obituary Tf ANSKN Charlotte KriBtine Hansen, aged seventy-three yeuiv, five months and tweJvo days, pass ed away September 1 1'th, nt the home of her daughter, Mrs. M.
