Another Opinion as to Dam Case.

Editors Times Republicans: one

perience in the article. Just Il little over
fifty years ago | owned a piece of lane
on the Iowa river bottom. at the base
of Mormon Ridge. About that time
G. NJ Woodbury. applied to the court
for permit to build dam in the mean
vicinity, for the purpose of building a
mill. | was living in Ohio at that time
and some of my friends informel me
of the movement and said that IT

essary for me to make application for

my land materially. The permit was
granted and damage was assessed il

These are the facts. If, in the mean
time, some one had built an ice house
on the banks of the dam, and the vi
cinity had been dependent on it for
their ice, and said dam had become
useful to the community In other ways
almost Indispensable, what would have
been the result, suppose now, at fhis
late date the descendants of G. M
Woodbury. would take it into their
heads to sell that dam, and | take IT
into my head to buy 1t and propose to
destroy it for the reason that it is
damaging my land?
Whether my right to destroy the
dam is good or not is one of the many
things l don't know. Whether the
