Bed to Railroad
ROAD SOUGHT PROTECTION
Under the New Law Bids Were Made
on All tho Abandoned River Beds
Along lts Right of Way-Part Of
Big Lake at Council Bluffs Is In
Controversy.
Special to Tlmes-Republican.


Council Bluffs, July ga tempor-
airy injunction was issued yesterday to
the park board OF this city. restraining
Secretary of State w. b. Martin from
conveying any part Of Big Lake to the
Illinois Central railroad, under the act
passed by the legislature of 1904, re-
lating to abandoned river beds. I'm
der this law, the first bidder on aban-
doned river beds receives title from the
secretary OF state when he pays the
appraised valuation. In order to pro-
tect itself from other bidders, the I'LL
nols Central, through it's engineers,
placed a bid on all such abandoned
river beds along its right OF way. The
present injunction relates only to
strip of land passing through Big
Lake, which was granted to the city
by an act of congress In 1880.
The city claims that the state has
no title to grant in the case Of Big
Lake, because OF the congressional
grant of twenty-five years ago. A
further bar TO the states assumption
to sell this strip lies in the fact that
the government surveyed the lake as
meandered lake which fact removes 1t
from consideration as a part Of the
former river channel Ii this conten-
ton is supported by the courts, the
state will have no right to confer title
under the statute for this law refers
simply to abandoned river channels.
