flesh begins to appear.
Its unseen work is more
important than the seea

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.

Some time ago O. M. Deemer, agent for
the Union Paclrtc Railroad company nt Gil
more, succeeded In perfecting an Insulated
angle bar, or r pi Ice, to be used in connect
ing rails and the electrical circuit on that
district of a railroad where the trains are
governed by a series of block signals. It
had long been a problem among railway
men aa to how to construct such a device,
the one heretofore used being Inadequate
for the purpose Intended. Mr. Deemer In
vented and patented the contrivance and' it
was shortly afterward adopted by many
of the roads throughout the country. Sev
eral lawsuits resulted from the fact that
eastern roads were infringing upon Mr.
Deemer's patent. He fought them all and
won out. Last week he received over
$15,0110. practically all of the amount being
royalties from the rale of the article. The

been brought to our notice, and is entitled
to some expression from the people who

This Is an old law of nineteen years'

or what our people remember as the Sparks

The, t!rr';ory involved is in the seml-arld

reach of Irrigation and not occupied by

These people, as a whole, are living in a
very humble manner, adopting the stiiitest
economy In order to make a living upon
these lands.
There is no Interference with those who
want to homestead any of these lands, and
what fences have been constructed enable
the owner of tattle to keep them at home
and not to intrude nn their neighbor, and to
more lolly protect thq natural grasses trum
