bill for the sale Of placer mining lands,
but Ward, of Illinois, will oppo.. the
ill. He has recently received letters
from y. J. Thsrit, containing arguments
IN favor OF the passage of the bill to
compel miners to apply fox patents with
IL 81 months. and containing Wholesale
charges against the Pacific coast mem
bsrs OF Congress who oppose it. Ward
saws lie has I:ct visited the Pacific coast
for twenty years, but his information Is
from men wEo az engaged in
the business of procuring patents Of
mineral lands. and who are informed
the wants of the mining
countries. 1t Is estimated that if ths
bill sL0s,li pass as introduced by Ward,
there would not be lawyers enough on
The Pacific coast to do the business, and
The mining communities would be taxed
SO heavy that many CT them would be
rendered bankrupt
