TO PRESERVE A LAKE.
Emmetsburg Citizens Successful j
Their Fight for Medium Lake.


SPECIAL to mes-Republican.
Emmetsburg, Feb. 1.-THE people OF
northern Iowa feel like congratulating
the citizens of Emmetsburg on their
successful fight to preserve one OF the
small lakes of the northern part of the
sttae. OF late years, too, many OF the
smaller bodies Of water that once
dotted the northern part of Iowa have
disappeared thru the efforts OF some
people to reclaim the land in the bed
of the lakes and turn it into agricul-
tural uses. 1t seems that for some time
there has been an effort on the part
of one element in and near Emmets-
burg to drain Medium lake, a small
body of water lying near that city. An
other element wanted the lake pre-
served and turned into summer re-
sort for the city and surrounding
country This fight was carried to the
state executive council this week and
resulted in decision favorable to the
preservation of the lake. 1t will now
be improved by the citizens of En-
metsburg with a view to making a
handsome summer resort with good
fishing and boating in the summer,
also furnishing a good ice supply for
the city in the winter.
