MINERAL LAND DECISION. An important
decision, says the Rural Press, has recently
been rendered by The Commissioner of the Cen
eral Land Office with regard 10 the tile Of
mineral lands tlose patented 10 the Central
Pacific Railroad Company. People had in
many instances already located mining ground
on some of these sections, and parties who
had purchased the land from the railroad
company found them in possession. This nat
uraliy gave rise to disputes as to priority Of
title, which the Commissioner dec des in a
manner to show thata posessory mining claim
which existed Il. the time the Government
granted the land to the Railroad company,
can be patented, and the patent will hold
good over any given to the company, or
conveyance made by them to private parties
The decision, which we append, will serve to
put stop 10 further litigation:
"Inasmuch rs all known mineral lands, ex-
cepting coal and iron, are expressly excluded
from the iairoad grant, and from all patents
issuedthereunder amy party having bona .tide
subsisting mining claim upon tract fland
at the date of the erro@eous patcnting thereof
to the railroad Co., is in no way debarred from
proceeding to obtain government patent for
such mining claim, in accordance with the
mining statutes of Congress; it being only
under such statutes that valid title to known
mineral land can be acquired; but when lands
have been patented to the company and a
mining application is filed therefor, either the
company or lis grantee may come forward
provided they appear within the time fixed by
the mining act for adverse claimants to dis
prove the mineral characte Of the land, should
they desire to DO SO"

THE VIENNA IA n.
REASONS FOR 1T.


The election is over, the Radicals n.o happy
and the Democrats philosophiclly accept the
situation, but the theorists are still at work
Hon. Montgomery Blair says the cause of our
defeat was, th1t instead of fighting the money
power, which united to crush Greeley because he
pronounced in favor Of early resumption OF
specie payments, we went to criticisng the
civil service, foreign and domestic policy of the
government. exposing the corruption Of the car
pet baggers, etc, etc. ''We did not show that il
was tn, money power, and not Grant that was
the candidate against us, and for this reason we
lost Senator Cameron, who carried Pennsyl-
vania in October, thus virtually deciding the
contest, said before the election that money and
organization would win, and it did. Money
meant bribery and corrn ption; organization was a
polite term for fraud. The Ex-Rev. Senator
James Harlan in the Chronicle, of this city, Of
which he is the editor, says the Republicans sue
was due to the fact that the professed Chris
tlans of the county We're on tina, side; that the
prayers offered up in the pulpit and in the Chris
tan homes of the country did the work "The
result" he says, 'shows the extent as well ms the
efficacy of these appliances. The pious Harlan
is strong believer i'll the dynamic test OF the
force of prayer in carrying elections. Those
who at all exercised as to the cause of our
defeat can take their choice of these presented
l am sorry that | cannot subscribe to Brother
Harlan's pious view of the force of prayer. as l
incline very much to the reasons assigned by
Blair and believed in by Cameron. that God was
on the side Of the heaviest purse this time s

VIII SON IN OHIO

1t is announced, with much complaceney,
BY the Administration journals that Henry
Wilson, the Grant candidate for the Vice
Presidency, having discovered the peril OF
his party in Ohio, proposes to take the
stump at once in that State Ohio has pro-
duced some honest public men in her time
We hope her citizens will not fail, therefore,
to devote themselves to the duty of finding
out whether Henry Wilson is or is not an
honest man. That he is a Know-Nothing
has been proved, much against his will, by
his political godfather in Massachusetts,,
Mr.. Francis W. Bird, and confessed at last
by himself Now We have 1t on the authori-
ty Of Cakes Ames, Massachusetts, member
Of Congress and his neighbo that he is a
bribe-taker, dishonest man, a traffcker in
votes. But we can get no word yet from
Berry Wilson on this point. Will Ohio put
the screws to him and make him speak {?

chased BY Cakes Ames:

Another Reason Why Democrats
should vote for Grant,

Greeley is no longer Republican. He
is a Democrat, and should he be successful,
his administration will be thoroughly
Democratic one. His cabinet will be com
posed Of Democrats and his whole policy
and ideas will be Democratic.-RockI Island
UuioR, July 81.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1871-1872, 1872-09-19
Still Another Reason why Demo
crafts Should vote for Grant.

The Democracy don't read and won't re-
fleet. A gallon Of corn juice is worth a
cord Of printed matter as Democratic cleo
pioneering document.-RockI Island Union
July 81.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1871-1872, 1872-09-19

The same platform, word for word, was
adopted by the Democratic National Con-
vsution at Baltimore-not word more or
less. Aud Horace Greeley and B. Gratz
