DAMMINC "A FAILURE

Says the Dams are Failures.

According to f. i. Vance, q mer.

Vance last Saturday to a Pioneer
Press reporter, at the Merchants
hotel, "these dams no not practical

river. Even now bOats are getting
around near WinOna and II the dams
were opened the rise in the river here
would extend only few miles south
Of st. Paul and would accomplish
nothing worth speaking Of. What
water starts from the reservoirs
either evaporates or ia lost in the
sloughs and creeks before it can get
far enough down the river to help
out navigation. In the next place
the reservoirs have ruined thousand
at acres of meadows and agricul-
tural lands. For instance. all Of the
meadows and rice fields of the Chip
pewa Indians have been wiped out.
The Indians were promised COM
pensa ton, but they havn't received
a cent. Formerly five thousand tons
Of hay could be cut about our town.
Now you can't cut a single ton.
Everywhere the land Is covered with
water. And, what's more, the reser-
voirs have interfered very seriously
with numbering up our way. It use
to cost only 50 cents thousand to
take logs from the Leech Lake river
down as 'ar as Brainerd. Now It
costs rs cents q thousand to get the
logs down as far as the first dam at
Grand Rapids, which is only a begin
