Plans Electric Road to Bitter Root Valley
Missoula businessman Gebree W. Daugherty, Montana representative for eastern capitalists, outlines plans for an electric railway up the Bitter Root valley to connect Missoula and Butte. He cites right of way hurdles with ranchers, but expects early completion and power from Rock Creek, with fast fruit and vegetable shipments to Butte. The line would offer rapid passenger service and may avoid reliance on trolley power, aiming for a paying return within years after completion.
