Observer Lyons Looks for Warm,

The intensely cold wave which is
master Of the situation here at present
bids fair, according to the prediction of
Weather Observer Lyons, to last until
Monday noon. lie thinks by that time
we shall have a warm wave, and that
by the middle Of the week another. and
perhaps a much colder wave, will reach
US. He said last evening:
This is the first real Old-fashioned
Minnesota winter weather we have had
since the January Of 1883. Thursday

will 20 down to about 25 deg below. We
have now had six weeks OF pretty good

not worthy the name of winters. Jan.
49, 1892, the Thermometer went down to
% below zero, and was the only really
cold day during the four years. The
average thermometer during the last
winter was about 20 above zero; the av-
erage thermometer OF the preceding
winter was 81 above zero, and the av-
erage thermometer of the first two
warm winters was about from q to %

that we will have pretty stiff winter

A Supreme Court Decision Of
Interest to All Riparian

A Valuable Lot Of West Side
Land Thus Added to
Tax Rolls.

Judge Mitchell, of the supreme court,
in the case of Lamprey against the
state and others, handed down de-
cision few days ago of great impor-
lance to the citizens Of Minnesota, af'
iirming the decision OF Judge Otis in
the court below, and settling for the
first time in the history of our state the
extent of the rights of riparian owners
land determining TO whom the beds of
the multitudinous lakes of Minnesota
belong.
The syllabus of the de ciSion, as pub
liShed in the routine court news in the
daily papers, was in all probability
passed by unnoticed by all save the in
lerested members of the legal profess
sion and few property owners of the
city; but as Minnesota has some 1000
lakes. all disappearing more or less
rapidly, the magnitude Of the interests
involved in this decision is almost in
calculable, directly affecting the rights
of thousands of people and the title to
thousands of acres of land in this state.
The court decide that when the
United States sell and give patent
to land bounded by meandered lake.
the government parts with all of its
rights to the lands within the meandered
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1893-01-15

This decision Of the supreme court,
however, holds the second survey and
the Gilmore patents void, the land de-
partment having no jurisdiction to re-
survey the lake, as the government by
its patents of the shore lands under the
original survey had parted with all of its
rights, and thereby had conveyed the
bed of the lake under such original
patents TO the riparian purchasers. Sew
eral railroad companies whose roads run
into st. Paul i'll sight of this lake bed
have for years eagerly endeavored to
hold about One-half of it on account of
its great value, claiming, if the lake had
not been meandered, about One-half of
these 325 acres would have fallen with
in odd sections, and hence that portion
Of the land would have fallen under
some of the numerous railroad land
grants, all OF which date long subsequent
TO the original survey, and after the
shore owners rights had vested. This
decision squarely gives the bed of this
lake to the riparian prOprietors, and all
other claims are completely swept away.
This is fortunate for the city also as now
the whole tract Will be listed for taxa
ton, though the riparian owners have
paid taxes for many years on about one
half Of the lake bottom. The court says
that the riparian owners are justly en-
titled to such land, for to hold otherwise
would open the door to "proWling spec
uiatOrs" to seize in this state all lands
between the meandered line and the
water line OF non-naYlgable lakes, many

lines, and can never claim any portion
of the lake bed, however much the
waters may recede; and further holds
that the state. by virtue OF Its sovereign
ty or otherwise, has no rights in or con-
troll over the beds Of non-navigable
lakes within its borders. The court also
decide that the owners of land along
and outside of the meandered lines own
by virtue thereof all the land to the
waters edge of nav igable lakes, and also
that such owners along n0n-naVigable
lakes own the fee in all the land from
the meandered line in front to the CEN
ter Of the lake by the same title as that
which they have in the lands outside of
the meaGdered line; consequently the
farmers and others having farms along
such meandered lakes in this state own
all the lands to the center of the lake
whether covered by water or not. This
decision secures to many citizens Of
Minnesota, by an unquestionable title,
many thousand valuable acres of
land, and absolute control of their
portion of these lakes. The particular
lake involved In this suit is familiar to
the residents of st. Paul, and is situated
just across the river in West ST. Paul
and east of State street, its north end
lying nearer the Merchants hotel than
the Seven corners, thus rendering the
lake bottom in question, now dry land,
Of great value-eStimated at more than
million dollars. Before Minnesota be-
came territory there was a cOnsidera-
bic lake there, and the adjoining lands
were duly entered by several persons
while Minnesota was a part of Wiscon-
sin. The government surveyed those
lands in 1858, and meandered this lake,
which covered 335 acres, and there are
many now living IN our midst who re-
member when the dusky red man, in
his silently gliding canoe, with rod and
gun, found his principal support within
Is waters. In 1860 the lake, having par
TALLY dried up, land Spectator by the
name of Gilmore quietly induced the
land department at Washington tC
survey the lake within the orig,
inal meandered line. and designate
The interior portion by fractional lots.
This was done without any notice to the
parties interested, and several patents
were issued under this second survey

Hereafter Sheriff's Fees Must Be
r.. r Paid in Advance.
Sheriff Chapel will hereafter abso-
lutely require all fees to be paid in adj
vance for work done in his office. The
necessity for this course is obvious
when it is remembered that the sheriff
must account to the county at the end
of each month. and he is acting as the
custodian of county funds, which must
be accounted for. This is one of the
results OF changing the office from a
fee to a salaried one. In Sheriff Beams
times if fees were not paid the county
could not complain, but under the
present system there is no course left
the sheriff but to require the payment
OF the cOunty'S money in advance SO
that there may be no penalties imposed
on the sheriff when he makes his
monthly settlements.

deprive the shore owners OF the use of
water, which the law always gave them
as part of their original purchase and
which constitutes great element OF

owners the fee of such lake bottoms,
whether covered by water or not.
