REMOVING THE DAM.
Water Threatens to Cut Thru Road at
Quarry and Supervisors Destroy

Because the back water from the
Iowa river dam at West Quarry is be-
ginning to cut thru the road at the
north public highway bridge, the sup
ervisors have ordered the dam Destroy
ed and Superintendent Of Bridges ].
7. Jackson, with force of men, is
at work removing the dam by the use
of dynamite. The LeGrand Quarry
Company built the dam several years
ago, for power to move the machinery
at the Quarries, but now the company
has no use for the water power. as
steam is used. The county will fill in
with 500 or 700 loads of dirt and 200
or more loads of rock at the north
bridge. and in this manner, and by
lowering the dam, will keep the river
in its regular channel.
