LIKES GRANTS PASS
$4,000 WORTH.

James Best, of the Best-Fuller
Realty company, has received let
ter which is of vital Importance to
Grants Pass and the county In gen.
eral. In this letter man OF large
wealth declares he wants to live in
this city because of the absence Of
saloons, because it is a beautiful
town and because he wishes to in
vest $115,000 in Josephine lands,
provided, of course, that such a
trade can be made agreeable to both
sides.
The name of the writer is withheld
for business reasons.
This unusually original letter, writ
ten from one of the larger towns Of
the state, reads as follows:
Mr.. James Best, care Best-Fuller
Realty company, Grants Pass, Ore
gon.
Dear Sir: should have replied
to your letter before this, but | have
been sick for several days. / am
very much interested in the larger
land propositions at $115,000 and
think it might be made paying in
vestment to me. hope to soon be
able to go over it carefully with you.
! regret you could not secure for
us a suitable house there, for Grants
Pass is one of the most attractive
little cities in the northwest. 1t
seems to be very much up-to-date
and remarkably clean. What above
all else appeals to me is the absence
of saloons and the undesirable ele-
ment that saloons always draw. Do
you know, as ! have been looking
about in many towns of the north
west, l have been impressed with the
fact that the dry towns not only
offer much better places for new
conner to take his family, but they
are actually on a more prosperous
footing and in them all lines of legi-
innate business are better than in
towns filled with saloons. Prob
ably less street corner talk and brag
but more actual business.
Another thing that is going to
help Grants Pass mora than is gen.
orally supposed is the proposed auto
truck road to the sea. 1t will do
more for 1t than would branch
with freight rates dictated
by other roads. 1t will help to get
railway but what is better, 1t will
act as an assurance to your people
that freight rates will be cut to COM
pete with anyone who desires to put
on a motor truck. | hope the road
will be pushed.
Yes, / think Grants Pass has
a fine outlook for the future and
that 1t will be a pleasant place for
home.
will let you know when | am
able to run down and go over the
land with you.

One of The most interesting fe lures

The Soutaerners were not laying
