The name was changed in 1872 when the town was platted to honor Vice President Schuyler Colfax, who served during the first term of President Ulysses S. Grant from 1869 to 1873."The Grady building and Glasers Jewery are on the left side of the photo on 100 block of South Main Street. Note: caption from the Spokesman-Review from the photograph's publication. Along the east side of Main Street (right to left) is the Shamrock Cafe, Glasers Jewelry (the clock was installed in the mid 1930's).The Boys (a men's clothing store owned by Bob Bretencort) and on the corner of Spring and main Street is Grady Drug.
