Railroad inquiry signals irrigation push in valley
F W Graham, Great Northern traveling freight agent, visited Quincy on Wednesday to study irrigation of ten acres and other tracts from wells. The move shows railroad interest in a long proposed project to transform the valley into a productive Pacific Northwest land, with hopes for substantial local benefits. The Douglas county Farmers Union met March 19 at Hartline and agreed to form a Grant county union, electing Oaks, Higginbotham, Klepper, and Delivak to leadership roles. The Grant County Union plans its first county convention at Quincy on April 23 with expected large delegate attendance.
