Would Have Drained Over Half
Million Acres in Cerro
Gordo County
COST WOULD HAVE BEEN 100000
Remonstrants and Petitioners Agree to
Share Heavy Expenses Already In
CURED, and Board of Supervisors
Dismiss tho Matter-Hancock Coun-
ty Ditch Case Hold Over to Feb. 8.
Special to Times Republican.

Mason City, Jan. 23.-The death
projects ever planned in Iowa, and
sounded here yesterday, when the
board of supervisors voted to dismiss
the matters in connection with the big
ditch, now pending before them. This
district had been planned to cover a
territory about fifteen miles long, and
from eight to ten miles wide, and IT'S
main and lateral bitches, together with
the many miles Of thing. would have
drained over half million acres bf
land The cost would have been about
5000 900. Only few land owners
board went ahead with the work. and
until the ditch was almost assured, no
move Of dissent was made. Then over
100 remonstrants appeared before the
board, and asked for the dismissal Of
the project. But nearly $4,000 i'm eX-
penses had already been incurred, and
some provision had to be made for the
covering of that expense. The remon
strants asked for time, and it was
granted them. So they persuaded all
the original signers to sign off, and
remonstrants and petitioners alike
signed an agreement to share the eN.
penses already incurred. according to
the area of their lands included in the
proposed drainage district.
Hancock County Ditch Case.
Trial jurors for the January term Of
court, which opens next Monday. have
been excused until Monday, Feb. s.
because of the fact that Hancock
county case which has already taken
up five weeks of the time of the dis
trict court there, promises to continue
at least fortnight longer. This case
is one in which several farmers In the
vicinity of Klemme are bringing suit
to restarin the board Of supervisors
from making to the Interstate Drainage
and Investment company the final pay
ment for the construction of a drain
age ditch near KIemme. They allege
that the ditch lacks several feet of be-
ing the depth called for in the specifi-
cations. Already the costs in this case
have amounted to over $1,000 and they
increase greatly with each added day
spent in the work of the court at un-
travelling the multitude of complica-
tons which the case presents.
