In speaking of some of the import

parte dam case will be heard from at
the coming session Of the supreme
court, the case having been advanced

Bonaparte dam case will be remember
ea as case against Meek Bros, of
Bonaparte, Iowa, owners of wooden
nils operated in that city, which mills
were run by water power secured by a
dam on the Des Moine5 river.
Fishermen in the neighborhood of
Bonaparte and up the Des Moines
river to Des Moines complained that
the dam INSTRUCTED the free passage of
fish up the river, and the Iowa sports
men association began an action to
compel Meek Bros. to remove the dam
or to provide fishways adequate anu
suitable for the river. The State of
Iowa joined with the plaintiffs, and
the case was bitterly contested. A
verdict in favor of the defendants was
secured in the lower court and the
plaintiffs at once appealed the case.
The recent advancement means that
that it will receive early consideration
