State Boundary Line Questioned
A suit that promises to attraot the
attention and consideration of the
state legislatures of both Iowa and
Nebraska was started today by several
land owners near Homer, Mob, through
their attorneys, A Van Wagenen and J
A an Wagenen. The dispute is over
tractjof about 1,771 acres of land
near Homer, Neb, and was brought np
by the wanderings of the Missouri
river.
Litigants ou the Iowa side of the
river claim tnat by accretion they
gained possession of the land many
years ago and that a recent move of
the stream, which cut them off from
the land, did not takeit from their
possession. The Nebraskaos olaim
the river did not make the sudden
jump claimed by the Iowans, but mov
ed over to the Iowa side slowly, and
gave tue property back into their pos
session bv accretion.
Litigation over this land is of long
standing. Many years ago Iowans
had their title to a large tract of the
land quieted. Since then portions of
the property have changed hands sev
eral times. Recently Leary P Hall,
wishing to sell some of his land, tried
to make a deal with Eugene Purdy, of
Omaha, Neb, but Purdy desired a
clearer title than Hall could give him,
and this started litigation again. Hall
had his title to the land established in
the district court in Woodbury county.
But the Van - Wagenens will make
a move by which they hope to have
the action of the distriot court here
put at naught and get all of the land
in dispute for the Nebraskaos . Neith
er appeared in the district court to con
test the claim of Hall to the land, but
on the other hand, ignoring the court's
action, they will bring a suit in the
Nebraska court asking that the title of
the Nebraska land owners be quieted.
The suit will be filed at Dakota City
Neb today.
The burden is on the attorney to
prove that the river did not make the
jump the Iowans claim it did, and that
the land belongs to those on the other
side of the stream by accretion, A
quick jump of the etream does not
change the ownershnhip of land, but if
the river changes its course slowly,
someone is bound to lose land and
someone else bound to gain it. The
land that was lost by the NebraBkans
when the river slovly changed its
course years ago was extremely valua
ble, and the farmers suffered a big
loss.
As a direct outoome of the case,
should the Van Wafreuens win, it will
be np to Iowa and Nebraska to decide
where the boundary line of the two
states is. The question will be wheth
er it changes with the river or remains
in the origiual bed of the stream, in
spite of the wanderings of the Missou
ri. It will be necessary to determine
this to tell which of the conrts, the
Iowa or Nebraska, l ad jurisdiction in
the matter of quieting title. Ibis
matter will be for the states them
selves to decide.
Nebraska has a conditional recipro
cal law, by which it agrees to let the
Missouri river alwavs be the boundary
line, providing the adjoining state
does the same thing. Iowa has no
such law. It is thought as a result of
the land litigation the two states will
get together and make some kind of a
provision for determining the state
boundary .

1909 agricultural, live stock, dairy
iug manufacturing, eto, exceeded $640,
000,000 an average of opproximately
$600 for each man, woman and child.
No other state in the Union made such
showing.
Dairy farming in Nebraska is in its
infancy, ret Nebraska is today one of
the leading producers of daily pro
ducts, and is ft rging ahead by leaps
and bounds. The inducements offer'
ed to dairy farmers by fiebraska are
beyond computation.
Taking into consideration fertility of
soil, healthfulness of climate, access to
market and surrounding creature com
forts and advantages, land in NebraB'
ka, improved ar.d unimproved, is to be
had more cheaply ana on better terms
than anywhere else in the republic.
Fifteen million acres of fertile land
await the activity of husbandmen.
Nebraska with a population of less than
a million and a half produces more
than is produced and purchased by
Japan, a nation of 35,000,000 people
Nebraska offers greater inducements
to homeseekers that any other state in
the Union greater than any other
similar areaiu the whole wide world
