Painful diseases are bad enough, bur
when a man is slowly wasting away with

THURSDAY EVENING. Marcia, 1897
THE SANTA FEE A

On Monday, the U. s. supreme court
reversed the judgment Of the court OF
private land claims In the Santa 70
land grant case, thus annulling the
grant.
When the case was taken into court
originally, says the Denver Republican,
the officials of the city Of Santa re
claimed to have received a town grant
from the Spanish government over 200
years ago. Santa Fe was supposed to
have been built on this grant, which
was claimed to cover an area Of three
square miles.
While the case was on trial, how
ever, it was discovered that, if the ex-
tent Of the grant was sustained, several
other private grants would conflict
with it. These are practically over
tapping the outer sections Of the grant
claimed for Santa Fe, SO the question
resolved itself into whether the private
grants were valid or the city of Santa
re grant was as large in area as claim
ed by its officials. Judge Murray, in a
dissenting opinion, held that the city
of Santa Fe had no grant at all, but
the other Judges decided against him,
with the exception Of Judge Stone'
who was in Spain at the time. The
government appealed to the supreme
court and secured a reversal.
An eminent legal authority on land
grants in Denver, Colo, is of opinion
that the decision Of the supreme cour
would at least settle tho validity OF tn
private land claims, if it was held tina
the original grant to the city OF SAINT
Fe was not as big as had been claimed
..But on the other hand,' said he, 81
it was held that Santa Fe had no vali'
grant at all, then everybody intereste'
will have to take title from the Unite'
States government. In fact, if re
member the case rightly, | think th
claim of the city of Santa Fe was alb
normally fimsy. Judge Murray ev
identity thought SO, too, for he wrote
voluminous dissenting opinion. .
course New Mexico did not come int
possession of the United States govern
ment until 1920, but it is q well.knowl
fact that Santa Fe had been a town TO
317 years. There is no question abou
its right to a town grant from this GOV
eminent, as it was ecertainlY q tow
when that Territory was acquired D
the United States. So it will be cor
sidered in the same light as towns tbs
have received grants, except the form
ality Of taking title from the govern
ment will haye to be gone through"
