A
PROTEST
MINERS FROM STOREY WANT
The GROUND
Trouble Over Patent is the
Cause Of Action

Yesterday George D. Pyne. the Vir-
ginia City attorney, together with a
number of Witnesses, arrived in this
city to enter a protest against the is
suing of a patent for ground in Sto-
reg county to the Southern Pacific
company, as it is claimed that as the
land is of more value for mineral pur-
poses than agriculture.
The case came before u 8. Register
Gallop, who was busy all of the day
taking testimony. Some time ago the
application for the ground was made,
and for many weeks mo action was Ia
ken on the part of mining men on the
Comstock and surrounding country,
The protest was finally entered and
yesterday a number of lawyers repre-
senting the company were onhand tc
make their statements. Among then
was Mr.. c. B. Sessions, who is vel
known in this city.
A patent is all right in it's place. bu
| when it interferes with mining, one O
! the chief industries in this State, it Il
time to make a protest all along tn
line. The decision in this matter will
be a matter of State iterest, as al
districts will be affected by it. From
the amount of talent employed by tn
company, the railroad is evidntly &c
ing to make a fight over the land ir
volved.
