FEAR IT MAY BE DECLARED SWAMP LAND
Members of Board of Bnpervlsors Sot
lacltned to Mia In Contest Be
tvreen City and Messrs.
Wrlgkt ssd Msrsr!
When the Board of County Supervisors
reconvened yesterday afternoon the first
matter taken up was the request of the
park commissioners of Council Bluffs that
the county deed to the city, whatever in
terest It might have In "Big" or "Spring"
lake, to which Oeorge S. Wright and George
H. Mayne have brought suit to establish
their title.
The park board is determined to make a
vigorous fight to defeat. If possible the
claims of Wright and Mayne and does not
propose to leave any stone unturned which
may h"lp it to retain the property for the
public. While It Is not contended that the
county has any title to the lake and park.
It Is barely possible that the courts may
hold that the property In dispute falls un
der the swamp land act. In which case the
countv would have 4ome Interest. It is
this possibility that Induces the park com
missloners to secure it possible a quit claim
from the county.
The park board was represented at the
meeting by Commissioners Graham and
Petersen and their attorneys. Tbe super
visors failed to see what interest they as
representatives of tho county had In the
dispute, as no showing bad been made that
the county had any title to the property
Involved. George S. Wright on lehalf of
himself and Oeorge Mayne urged the su
pervtsors to keep out of the fight. He con
tended that be had Just aa much right to
come before the board as the park controls
sloners and ask the county to give him 1
quit claim deed.
Fearing that tho owners of property abut
ting Carr lake, which was given to the city
of Council Bluffs by act of congress Feb
ruary 9, 1881, would take similar action
the park commissioners have also requested
the county to give It a quit claim deed to it
This lake and its acreted land lies south
of the city In Lewis township and Is known
as "Island park." Like Big lake, it Is out
side the municipal limits. Tbe board took
the matter under advisement, but as it is
very doubtful if the county has any claim
on either parks, the board is not expected
to interfere. At least this waa the opinion
expressed by the supervisora last evening.
The balance of yesterday's session was
taken up in fixing the salaries of the asses
sors for 1903. City Assessor Everest of
Council Bluffs will receive $2,500 aa in 1901,
and the aaseBors in the other towns In the
county rvill receive the following salaries:
Avoca, $120; Carson, $40; Hancock, $25;
Macedonia, $25; Minden, $30; Neola, $70;
Oakland, $70; Underwood, $25; Walnut, $70.
The township assessors will be paid as
follows: Garner, $90; Lewis, $75; Boomer,

that the BaTlese.s are in fact Mr) and Mrs
Jack Aaron, formerly well known in north
