afford relief to the inhabitants of cities
and towns upon public lands by giving valid
title thereto. Under such protection many
towns, with buildings of great value, have
grown up 1t would in many instances be
a great impediment to progress of such
towns if titles TO those occupied by their in
habitants were subject to be overthrewn by
the subsequent discovery of mineral depos-
its under the surface. If their title would
not protect them against the discovery of
mines in them, neither would it protect
them against the invasion of their property
for the purpose of exploring for mines. The
temptation into such exploration would be
according to the suspected extent OF min
erals, and being thus subject to indisermate
invasion the land would be to the one hay
ing title poor and valueless, just in proper
ton to the supposed richness and abundance
of its products. We do net think any such
results were contemplated by the act, or
that any construction should be given to it
as would lead to such results"

Sometime ago Collier fell upon an axe
