The Law Of Mining Patents.


W. W. Curtis. Acting Commissioner
Of the General Land ONCE In WASH
ing,on, has already passed upon the
application Of j. T.. Sargent, Daniel
Flint and William Flint, for q patent
to tho Boston quicksilver mine, In
Monterey county. II appears from
the affidavit Of Stephen Hatch that a
netlce Of application for the patent
was published In the Monterey Gazette
every consecutive issNe Of said paper
from February I, 1867, to May l, 1861.
The Commissioners arithmetic OF the
case Is as follows : The notice In this
case was published for the frat time IN
q weekly paper dated February I, 1867.
From that date to May /. 1867, there
were only eighty. days-namely,
In February, excluding the first day OF
publication, twcnty-ssven days, In
March thirty ons days, In April thirty
days, and In May q day /; total.
slghty-nine days. In arriving at this
result the Commissioner Is guided by
tho decision Of the Secretary Of the
Interior In the ease Of the application
for patents for tho Eureka aud Mon
tana lodes. Utah Territory. dated No
vsmbsr, 1879, 1t was there held that
"the first day OF the publication OF the
notice should DO excluded In the com.
putatlon Of tho time required for the
publication OF q notice OF Intention TO
apply for = patent" No reason Is AZ
signed for excluding tho first day Of
publication In computing the time ;
but the Commissioner holds that the
failure to publish ninety days, exclu.
sive OF the first day, invalldatss the
publication and all subsequent pro.
csedings In the matter. Ths appllca-
ton for 4 patent, therefore, wa sdenisd.
