jOyment of all mankind, not to be
monopolized by any individual or
set of individuals.
But, say some, can you blame the
owners of these springs for wanting
to get something for nothing by sell
ing at high price that which cost
them very little, taking advantage
of the pioneer principle, 81 saw it
first? While money gained by spec
ulation is not earned, yet no man
can be blamed for taking advantage
of an advance in values. Let the
men who have cinch on the frothy
waters of the Ashland country get
every dollar they can out of our
mineral springs. Any of us would
do the same, selling for the very
highest price we could obtain. Only,
let them sell. That's the point we
insist upon. If they haven't the
means to develop the springs prop
erly, let them sell to someone who
has.
Supposing the price offered by
capitalists is not considered by the
owners satisfactory? Well, moneyed
men are the best judges of what they
can afford to pay for such property.
Let these capitalists bid against each
other for our springs, and then sell
to the highest bidder. That will be
the highest market price, and no one
should want more
For more than half century Ash
lands mineral springs have been
held by spectators, who have waited
all these years to see how much
money they could get out of the
final development owners. Isn't It'll
about time for them to jar loose?

Our Mineral Springs.

What's the matter with our min
eral springs? The other day nearly
a thousand people visited the springs
at Colestin. That shows the possi-
bilities of the resort business. If
the spring at Colestin, with scarcely
any other attractions or conven-
fences, could draw such a crowd,
what could we reasonably expect an
other of our springs to do, with the
help of modern tourist hotel and
all other attractions and cenven-
fences that go with such an institu-
tion?.
Two or three times during the
past few years men of means have
investigated our mineral springs and
announced that they had found
everything satisfactory and that they
were willing to spend something like
couple of hundred thousand dol
lars in building big hotel and max
ing a popular resort. Why have
they not done so? There was only
one condition which remained to be
met: the securing of one of our
springs at a reasonable price. Evi-
IDENTIFY they found they could not do
this, and so these important projects,
which would have meant so much to
Ashland, had to be dropped.
Is this right? Have the owners of
these springs a moral as we'll as
legal right to pursue this dog-in-the-
manger policy? Has anyone a right
to hold onto valuable public util-
ity, neither developing it himself nor
permitting anyone else to develop it?
A mineral spring is work of ma
ture, created for the benefit and en-
