SETTLERS ON ODD SECTIONS.
Senator Peterson offered the following
Joint resolution relating to settlers on odd
sections of land:
WHEREAS, 1t has been made to appear
that a large number of settlers in this
state and particularly in the counties of
Brown, Redwood and Lyon are now occu-
plying lands on odd sections on which they
obtained filings and made settlement in
good faith before the withdrawal of such
lands from entry and prior to the time
that the various land grant railroad COM
panies in this stats fixed the permanent To-
cation of their routes, and that many other
tracts which were thus occupied or covered
by valid filings at the time of such perna-
nent location of routes were afterwards
abandoned by the occupants or entruders
and retaken and occupied by other settlers
under the rulings of the interior depart
ment of the United States; and
WHEREAS, 1t was provided by the several
land grant acts and has been so held and
decided by the court of the United States
and lately by the interisr department that
such occupancy or the existence Of valid
filings upon lands within the granted linn
its at the time of such location of route
exem pied such lands from the operation
of the agents. but nevertheless such lands
have been inadvertently certified by the
executive department Of the United States
| to the state of Minnesota in trust for said
railroad companies and by the state con-
veyed to them in total disregard of the
rights of such settlers and the public;
now, therefore. be it
RESOLVED by the legisIatureo of the state of
Minnesota, That the honorable secretary
| of the interior department of the United
States be, and he is hereby requested to
| instruct the attorney general of the United
States to institute N behalf of the United
States such actions or proceedings as may
be proper and necessary to amend and
set aside erroneous certifications and il
legal disposal of the lands of the United
States, and to take such other action in the
premises as may be deemed necessary &c
protect the rights Of such settlers, and the
public domain from the rapacity OF seiG
railroads.
RESOLVED further, That the secretary Of
state cause certified copy hereof to bt
forthwith transmitted to the honorable
secretary of the interior of the United

standing IN Our Own Light.

The Battle Mountain Messenger is
disposed to insist hat Nevada pros
pectors are somewhat to blame for the
stagnation in mining affairs. II says:
Many of our exchanges are predict
ing a boom in Nevada mining proper
ties during the coming Summer. il
is the old cry. VIZ live through the
winter, hoping, Micawber like, that
something will turn up IN the spring.
When spring IN and no boom, we
wait for the Fall raise. We try and
make ourselves believe that better
times are coming, but they have not
come 50 far, and from where are they
coming? II the people of this State
do not help themselves, can they ex-
pect others to help them. All our
neighboring mineral States and Terri
tories r IN a n0urishing condition
and capitalists are investing in their
mines, but they avoid Nevada or seem
To do SO. Are our mines less perma-
nent than theirs or lower grade min
eral? We think not, then why Is it?
Simply hat many of our people are

prospect and wait for the precious
metals to grow in the rock. Prospect
ors should remember that the day has
passed that "a hole In the ground can
be sold for a large amount of money;
also that capitalists Will pay more for
a mine than the prospects justify.
Owners OF mining properties should
either open them up, expose their
value, or worthlessness, or give soIne
enterprising persons a chance to do
50, or il they have an opportunity TO
dispose OF their properties, he willing
10 take a reasonable amount for the
same. The average mine owner, how
ever, thinks that he should make a
fortune out OF his property where
there Is nothing to induce intending
purchasers TO pay fancy prices for
such property. How many mines
are there in this State to-day, almost
u~ndeyeloped, tor which the owners
ask $50 600 and 500 600, the actual
value OF which is not more than Sl0,-
900 and some dear at 81 coo. As long
as parties are satisfied to hold on to
these nndeyeloped properties and
when they have u chance to dispose
of them at reasonable figures, refuse
to do so, just SO long will we remain
without our mining boom.

E. II. Brown, of Denver, Colorado,
has invented an electric apparatus for
detecting and locating minerals,
which is said to be q wonderful in
strument and a marvel of science. It
is a small electrical machine, with
small points at tho ends of the posi-
tive and negative wires. These points
being held lei together and moved
over a piece of mineralized rock, give
a constant succession of sparks when
passed over mineral of any kind, but
"a barren rock does not affect them. II
the ore extends through the rock con.
tinuously, the machine will show It
by holding the points on the opposite
sides ofthe rock. 1t Will show wheth-
er the rock carries mineral or not,
and also show the comparative quail
ity of ore. II ons pole is placed in
contact with the ore in any mine and
the other pole applied to = supposed
extension of the vein, IL will show n
once whether it is the extension or
not. What is called static electricity
is used, and the theory is based OF
the conductivity of metals for electric
ity. Copper and gold give distinct
flames-copper a greenish and gold a
pnrple-while silver, lead, iron, etc.
white. This machine will prove
of great yalse to p~rospectors, AZ they
can test any float rock or specimen
and tell in a minute whether 1t car
ries mineral, and whether much or
little. The machine can be carried on
the back like a knapsack.

office. The index appears to be an
immense improvement upon that Of

White Pine.

From a gentleman who has recent
ly returned from White Pine county,
the Ruby Hill Mining News learns
that the mining prospects of that Sec
ton r much better than they have
been for the past two years. Several
we'll known and valuable mines are
attracting considerable attention from
Eastern capitalists, many of whom
have visited several portions of the
county, and i'll every instance have
come away more than pleased with
what they have seen there. That
capital will flow in and help develop
ON OF the old abandoned mining
properties that have more than paid
in the past, there is no doubt. We
sincerely hope that such will he the
case. Prosperity for White Pine
means success for Eureka.
