Excerpt from Lowe the Laborer, or Seven Years in Eastern Oregon, and Seven Years in the San Joaquin Valley: The Common Sense Solution of the Great Labor Problem
On arriving in California, I was anxious to know what progress had been made in irrigation I ascertained that nearly all the original shareholders of the Cacheville Agricultural Ditch co. Had given their stock to Judge Hutton, to get rid of paying the assessments. Irrigation was pronounced by everybody to be an unmitigated humbug. Most intelligent people would listen with marked impatience to any argument in favorof it. But I had received a dreadful lesson early in the engagement, and one that had made a lasting impression upon me. I could not but think on my return to California, that business of appropriating and converting these natural channels into irrigation canals, was the best speculation in the country. But I had no money to do it, and I knew it was folly to try to induce any of my acquaintainces on Cache creek tofput money into such enterprises. I would not have it understood that the Cache creek country is alone in being favored. With natural canals; nearly the whole country is favored in the same manner.
