Austin. Tex, Jan. as.-1'he supreme
rourt yesterday, IN an opinion by
Judge Gaines. granted tho petition for
mandamus IN the case of =. o. Weber
W. Charles Rogan land commissioner.
THIS application seeks TO compel the
commissioner TO award two parcels OF
timber land. situated IN Jefferson and
Polk counties, which were unappro-
priatcd public free school lands aud
were Isolated and detached" within
the meaning OF the act OF May. 1897.
and that on Aug II 1892 rclator made
application 10 purchase az 81 per ncro
and the commissioner refused 10 sell
the land At that price. having classified
one section as tlmbered lard and fixing
the price at IS per acre and the other
90 grazing land worth $3.50 per acre.
In regard to the latter tract. Il was also
averrod that Il had previously been
sold. but that the commissioner OF tho
general land ofIlce. on the goth OF July,
1899. had declared the title OF the pur-
chaser forfeited for non-payment OF In
terest, and that he ala not again place
Il upon the market until the ist OF
September thereafter IIo therefore
claimed that az the time Of the appllca-
tion the tract last mentioned was not
subject 20 rale, for the reason that Il
had not been again placed upon the
market.
As the last half section. which "a
located In Jefferson county, the court
says After the commissioner had de.
clared that parcel forfeited. was IL
necessary that the forfeiture should bo
reported TO the county clerk OF the
county IN which the land is sltuated
before II was again subject 10 pur-
chase? The provisions IA general OF
the chapter regulating the sale OF the
public school and asylum lands do not
apply to the isolated and detached Sec
tlons and fractions Of sections. AS al.
ready seen, they required no classihca-
ton, nor was any appralsement neces-
aary as n condition precedent to their
sale. Before the amendment OF 1897
the commissioner nxed tho price at
not less than g. per acre. Under tho
amendment the law fixed IL absolutely
at u and directed that the lands DO
sold upon the same terms az Other pub
Tie lands were sold under the provls-
Ions OF tho chapter Of which Il waa
made a part"
Tho above Is important and is in
conirayention to the states position.
