In a resolution ' passed unani
mously, by the Williams i'tvek
Orange, nt their last meeting, the
Mnml of the Cnuniy Court of Jose
phine county, ant! the town of
( I rants Pass, uii the Williams Creek
cut-off roaI proposals, is scored.
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-.
