Newspaper articles appearing recently in some of the larger publications has given the impression to the public that the McHenry dan*' is responsible in a way for the low water in the Fox river below McHenry. This is absolutely wrong and should be corrected as the ill will created by this impression does much harm. . 1 The dam was built and paid for by public subscription of property owners around the lakes, river and inhabitants of McHenry and maintained by them from 1906 to about 1910. The state took Over the flam at the request ,of the dam association, ad thJSdifficulty. of collecting the funds necessary to keep the dam in repair had become a real burden. The dam was built to keep the water at a standard summer level for sanitation, bathing, boating, fishing and general recreation. •At the present time there i^ very little water running into the chain of lakes basin as the streams that feed i^j are almost dried up. What there is, is now flowing over the McHenry dam. Consequently the communities ifeelpw McHenry are getting all .the 'water they would receive if no dam were there. Taking the flash boards off the dam and lowering the level of, the lakes and river would only give slight and temporary relief and put the people above the dum in the same condition as those below, with no per manent benefit to them and a great harm to those above. Great benefit would result if a number of "dams were built in different locations for the same purpose that the McHenry dam was built, namely, to1 maintain a standard summer level. In connection with this some arrangement should be made with the water poWer users to assist in maintaining a standard level during the dry season. Many beautiful homes have been built on the banks of the river and shores of the lakes. These places were .built with the understanding that a water level would be maintained to permit of bathing, boating,..fishing'and recreation. Surely they would consider it an injustice to take from them these benefits when it would be of no permanent benefit to anyone. filn one article a statement was made that ten feet of water was too much for present conditions. There may be -holes ten feet deep in the river, but the average depth will not exceed five and one-half or six feet, in the river above the McHenry dam. The flash boards are placed on the dam in the spring as soon as the ice ful business in several years."
