Resolution From Watford City Association Of Commerce Regarding Garrison Dam Pool Level, Undated, Leland M. Stenehjem, Erven W. Day

William Langer Papers

This resolution that is undated, from the Board of Directors of the Watford City (North Dakota) Association of Commerce, argues that a pool level of 1850 feet behind the Garrison Dam will "imperil or destroy" the Lewis and Clark and Buford-Trenton irrigation projects, thus resulting in permanent loss of productions from effected agricultural units, as well as the displacement of many farm families, whereas a pool height of 1830 feet will result in less destruction without interfering with the primary purpose of power generation and water storage.

For these reasons, the Board of Directors, "respectfully urges the joint session of …

The years from 1810 to 1840 deal with one of the most decisive periods in Indiana's history, first as a territory and later as a state. Few periods have seen greater political and material development. During these years great problems, such as the organization of the state government, the disposition of the public lands by the Federal government, and the construction of internal improvements by the national and state governments, had to be solved by those who bore the responsibilities of public office. Great national political movements were in the making. These matured into powerful forces, shaping not only national …

The Negro In California Before 1890, A. Odell Thurman

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Because so little has been written concerning the Negro in California and because the dynamic and romantic sequences in the development of this country have always interested me, I have become interested in knowing what part the Negro, free and slave, played in this panorama of events. Were there Negroes with early expeditions? To what extent did they migrate to the West when "gold fever" had become a nation-wide epidemic? Did they find gold? Where did they settle? What did they do? What difficulty did they encounter politically, socially, and economically? These are questions that have filled my mind, and …
