RIVER MUDDLES THE COURT
PerDlexity Arises I'm Law Suit as the
Result of Shifting
Channel.

Judge Day returned yesterday from
Sarpy county. where peculiar condition OF
affairs exists with reference to certain land
in litigation in the district court. This con-
dition grows out of the idiosyncrasies of
the channel of the Missouri river and the
action of the state Legislature in fixing the
boundaries of Sarpy county. The legisla-
ture fixed the eastern boundary of the
county as the channel of the Missouri river
In 1856; since then Bellevue island has be-
come a part of the main land and by
accretion there has been added to it
considerable tract Of land which under the
common law is part of the state of Ne
braska, but as 1t lies east of the channel
OF the river of 1856, 1t is not part of Sarpy
county except for judicial purposes. The
people there pay no taxes, but they vote
in Nebraska. They acknowledge only such
laws of the state as they desire to have
observed, and, from time to time, when
brought into court in law suits. endeavor
to have 1t legally decreed that they are
citizens of Iowa, but when that state
claims jurisdiction they are equally earnest
in attempting to prove their Nebraska citi-
zenship
In the case now before the court on
mortgage foreclosure the owner OF the land
sets UP a plea that his farm Is half in Ne
braska and half in Iowa, as he claims that
the northwestern half is formed by accre-
ton to Bellevue island, while the south
eastern half was brought over from the
Iowa shore bodily when the river changed
it's current in 1873. If this contention is
successful It will raise peculiar question
of law. The mortgage is recorded in Ne
braska. and would probably be binding as
to that part of the land which was added
TO the island by the gradual recession of
the river, while the mortgage not being
recorded in Iowa, would probably not be
binding upon that part Of the farm which
was torn from the eastern. bank OF the
river when the channel was changed.
