ties under the terms Of contract.
The Galloway company. several
years ago. entered into contracs
with the milking machine company
for the use Of the machines or certain
parts Of them but claimed that the
contract could be cancelled at the end
Of the first year at the option OF either
party. The milking machine company
held that 1t alone had the right to can
eel the contract and as 1t did not
choose to do SO. sued the Galloway
company for the royalties extending
over three or four years.
Attorneys for the Galloway COM
pany then went into court with petit
ton to reform the contract, cancelling
II ct the end of the first year. 1t was
on this point that Judge Mullen ruled
yesterday. ordering the contract re-
formed In accord with the Galloway
companys petition.
This leaves the matter in such shape
that the plaintiff company could re-
cover for only one years royalties.
which the defendant company. 1t Is
saiG. is willing to pay.
Attorneys for the milking machine
company however. declare they wilt
appeal to the supreme court from the
decision of Judge Mullan.

respondent writing for an Iowa paper
sends the following:
The recent big opening and ceie-
bration at keokuk, Of the Mississippi
River Power Company's Gam and pow
er plant project at that point, and the
literature which is being circulated by
the company has drawn the attention
of government officials to a joker con-

very costly to the government.
A little over a week ago the govern :
ors Of three states--Iowa, Missouri and
Neutrality-suspicious. in big "cele-
bration" at which the power company's
project was officially opened. This
project will ultimately generate 100000

On Feb. 5, 1905, congress granted
perpetual franchise to the Keokuk and
Hamilton Water Power Company to
construct dam across the Mississippi
river at keokuk. This corporation al

The only restriction in the grant was
a provision that locks should be con-

dam. which will back the waters of the
Mississippi for sixty-f1ve miles is
eight tenths OF mile long, of mono

equal width with those at Panama;
that is, 10 feet, and are 400 feet long.
Without considering whether the cost

sufficient remuneration to the gov

granted away this valuable right in

Hero is tho Joker.
But now comes the joker. There
Is no provision in the law regarding
the operation Of these locks and in its
literature, the company states that the
locks having been completed and
turned over to the government, the
company is under no further obligtaoin
in the matter. This means that the
government will have to pay for the
operation Of these locks forever. In
other words. congress grants the right
to obstruct navigation in the Missis-

order to compensate for this. provides
that locks must be constructed at the
expense Of the company-but the peo-
pie, thru the government must now
pay for the privilege Of using their

SAYS LAKE IS SWAMP
Governor Clarke Says State Executive
Council Was Right in Ordering Wall
Lake Drained-Makes Personal Visit
to North Iowa Waters.

Des Moines, Oct. 1.-The executive
council was forced to cut short its lake
inspection trip in northern Iowa. Rain
forced the members to board the train
for home yesterday morning. The re-
turn was made from Eagle Grove.
The only lake visited was Wall lake
in Wright county. A former executive
council ordered 1t drained and this
council visited ordered 1t drained and
whether it thought the action wise
one.
Governor George w. Clarke is GER
tain that the council which ordered the
lake drained did the right thing. The
people Of the state will realize 1t IN
another dozen or so years II he has the
condition sized up rightly.
"Wall lake Is not a lake" he said. III
is just a swamp. True, there were
few teal, but wild ducks were by No
means plentiful enough to warrant
wasting 1000 or more acres Of land
1.-THE worst feature is that there are
thousands of blackbirds near the lake
Farmers told US that from $500 to
$1,000 damage is done the crops on
every farm near the lake every year.
The cap sheaves on grain shocks are
ruined. Hundreds Of bushels Of corn
are destroyed. The waste is large and
worry to the farmers"
In twenty years from now this
swamp will be tract Of land worth
more than 100000 to the state. the
governor said. And this value will be
realized without ono cent Of expense
to the state. The bed has been leased
for twenty years at Is cents an acre.
In that time 1t is to be drained without
expense to the state.
Rush and Median lakes were to have
been visited, but the mud was SO deer
that it was impossible to get across the
country to them. For two months the
members Of the council have been try
ing to get to the lake, but each time
they planned to go rain has bothered
them.
