Spokane: economic history

(also posting to WikiProject Washington)

I'm not particularly connected to Washington, but I'm a member of the Guild of Copy Editors, and User:G755648 asked me to do some copyediting on Spokane, Washington. In the process I've been trying to clean up some spots that don't seem to make sense, and I can't get any further with this one:

In the section 20th century, the first paragraph says

Expansion abruptly stopped in the 1910s and was followed by a period of population decline, due in large part to Spokane's slowing economy. ... During this time of stagnation...

while the second tells us that

Spokane's golden period of growth continued, however, and the city reached a peak in development between 1907 and 1930.

These certainly seem to contradict each other, but I can't sort them out. Help, somebody who can? Please Ping me.

Neutrality of Spokane Police Department article

I started a conversation here on the SPD talk page about how to incorporate the Death of Otto Zehm into the article while maintaining balance. As always, your input is welcome. RevelationDirect (talk) 11:27, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
