An adverse claimant should set
forth In detail the fact upon which no
bases his adverse claim. A statement
in general terms, embodying conelu-
stons OF law, without stating the facts
specially, will not DO considered In
evidence.
An adverse claimant should show
com plianco with tho local laws In re-
cording his claim and in regard 10 ex-
penditures, and shall file copy OF
the original notice OF his location,
and show the nature or the extent OF
the conflict alleged.
An allegation OF parties TO suit that
they compose the company Is sufli-
cient, and they are not required to
prove that they are the original loea-
tcrs or the identical parties who pre-
scented the adverse claim.
AGRICULTURAL OR MINERAL LANDS.
Where tho land is of little, II any,
value for agricultural purposes, but is
essential for the development OF NM
ing claims, IL should be disposed of
under the Mining Act.
Where lands containing valuable
mineral deposits have been included
in an agricultural entry, said entry
will be cancelled at any time prior TO
issue Of patent, upon satisfactory evil
denee OF the existence of such valu-
able deposits.
Whore valuable mineral deposits
are discovered upon tract after the
same has been entered as agricultural,
but before patent has been issued, the
parties claiming the mine may make
application for patent for same, and
the agricultural entry will be can
celled 10 that portion OF tho land EN-
hraeed by said mining claim.
Where IMMORAL deposits are discov-
cred on agricultural lands after the
patent has been issued to an agrieul-
tural claimant, they pass with the
patent.
AgriculturalCollege scrip cannot be
received in payment for claims.
ALIENS.
A foreigner may make a mining To-
cation and dispose of it, provided he
becomes citizen before disposing of
the mine. Proof that the party was
not citizen before disposing OF his
claim must be affirmatively shown.
Locators and intermediate owners,
other than applicants, will not be
presumed aliens, in the absence OF
allegation or objection prior to the
issuance OF patent.
The portion Of n mining clam sold
to an alien cannot be patented while
such owner is an alien; but on his
declaration to become n citizen his
right dates back TO his purchase, aud
he may thereupon secure an United
States patent for his claim.
