LODE CLAIM HAS

fore Jury.

A case was recently decided by jury
trial in a Butte, Montana, court, says
the Mining and Scientific Press, where a
ed placer was declared to be within his
rights. The ground was located in 1880
as a placer. This placer was patented
later, but in 1890 other parties entered the
placer and located a lode claim on il.
Defendant claims that the patent gave
him exclusive right to the ground and
that he had held undisputed and unuis-
turbed possession OF the claims for six
years, and that the claim was good
against all comers, and moved non-suit.
The court decided that such claim could
only be allowed when the government
contested the title. hTe defendant fur
ther claimed that there was not suf-
ficient showing OF quartz on the claim
in 1880 to justify working the property
as a lode claim. This contention was
overruled by the court. A patent to a
placer claim is not prima facie evidence
of the fact thta no known lodes exist
withinthe limits of the placer claim at
date of application. The disposition of
the department is to consider that IL the
lode actually did exist at the time of
filing application for placer patent, such
lode is reserved by operation of law,
whether located or not. The law rela-
phase of existing mining legislation tnat
needs a change to remove from 1t that
element of ambiguity and uncetainty

projects in Washington. where II is esti-

OF the lands included shows that the
farmers and prospective settlers are will
ing and anxious to have the government
go ahead on the basis of the repayment
by the land holders of this amount. The
only hindrance to the commencement or
work on this project lies in the fact that
the government has not the necessary
appropriation.
Where irrigated land will produce an
nually farm and fruit crops worth from
$50 to 800 an acre. the initial cost of an
adequate water supply. even when the
cost is high. Is not serious considera-
tion and the obligation is gladly under
