Residents of liellevne Islnnil Praise Artlon of Male Oflicrra. 3ELLHVIE, Neb., March 23.--(Special - Three miles south and et.st of Rellevue there Is a iow, sandy sl'lp of land lying be tween the Mlssouii river and Its old bed. Many years ego when government survey ors pnased over that part of the country nothing was to be seen but half-aubmeraed, willow-covered sandbars, apparently with out hope of recovery. Whether through accident or because the surveyors did not deem It worth the while, no account was made of the unfertile tract, either on the map of Iowa or of Nebraska. Now at leat fifty lamllies occupy the siot, with well ( Jltlvatcd farms, and still no one knows to which of the two states It belongs. Since the Island, as It Is called, has be come nettled up all kinds of difficulties have arisen from Its lack of identity with any state in particular. School appropria tions have Invariably missed it. Olher ap propriations have In like manner failed to appear from either state to v.-hich It may belong or any other source. Consequently the people fcl more or less rebellious about some of the things l.nposed upon them by iocnl governments on bolh sides of he river. Just lately nn uttempt made by one of the road supervisors of Sarpy county, Nebraska, to open a road leading to a school house through the field of a man named Flgg was resisted, not too politely, and the matter has come before the public notice too forcibly to be overlooked. What the first step In the ecttlement will be :s a matter of great concern and anxiety to those Inhabiting the disputed territory. GHinore Man Gets Money.
