MAY BUILD FURTHER SOUTH.
Story From Denver Says Western
Pacific Route May Be Altered.

From Denver comes story that the
Western Pacific route may be changed
and that instead of running through
Salt Lake it will leave the Denver and
Rio Grande at Green river. run through
central Utah and Nevada, cross the
Southern Pacific at Reno. go through
the Sierras at Beckwith Pass and
thence proceed down the surveyed line
through California. This route. it is
claimed, would make the road 1856 miles
shorter than by way Of Salt Lake and
enable the Goulds to reach the coast six
hours earlier than can now be accom-
plished over the Hartman lines.
This will not shut out Salt Lake, it is
argued, as that city will be connected
with the Western Pacific by way of the
Rio Grande south which will give it the
benefit of more rapid freight and pas
senger transit to the Coast even though
it is not the terminal. In Salt Lake
there is an impression that if the route
is changed it will start from Thistle
junction, south of Salt Lake instead of
from Green river and then strike di-
rectly across the center of Nevada.

RENO'S FEDERAL BUILDING.

to be given office room within the

Senator Nixon to have the awarding Of
the contracts delayed until the plans
can be altered so as to increase the
capacity OF the building Acting upon
the petition presented to him. Senator
Nixon wired to the Secretary of the
Treasury asking that the wishes of the
people of Reno be respected.
Word was received from Washington
on Friday of last week in reply to Sena-
tor Nixon's telegram. The message
was from the Inspector of Public Build.
ings, who said that no change could be
made in the exterior of the building, as
proposals for its construction had al.
ready been advertised for, and bids
would be received in few days. An
inspector will arrive in Reno shortly
and some changes will be made in the
interior arrangement of the building.

DANGEROUS PROMOTION SCHEMES
The Dispenser of Wildcat Shares a
Detriment to Nevada's Welfare.

"Wild-catting" is now the order of
the day. since the Postal authorities
have succeeded in measure in check.
ing the thieving carried ON under the
guise OF the mercantile and financial
propositions Of the get-rich-quick swim
dlers, says the San Francisco News
Letter. A mining company run by a
few unprincipled men affords abundant
opportunity to rob the shareholders,
aud the respectable element operating
in the new mining camps of Nevada
are fully alive to the danger which ex-
lists from an influx of such rascals as
those to whom reference is made.
They "butt" in everywhere they can
find an opening. every rich strike made
affording chance for extensions aud
adjoining locations. which in turn
furnish the basis of most outrageous
falsehoods. which in time are bound to
revert upon the valuable property which
is used as a lure for victims.
Speaking upon the evil effects of
"wild-catting," Congressman Van
Duzer Of Nevada is quoted as follows:
when we of the West come to the
Eastern States aud say anything about
a mining proposition. the Eastern man
with money buttons up his coat. put his
hand in his pocket, and holds on
to his pocketbook. He looks upon
the Western man who has a min.
ing enterprise or mining scheme
as sort of natural.born rascal. If
mining is looked upon as an industry
fraught with rascality. it is because the
people in the East are the people who
shelter, shadow. protect and conceive
the villainy which has resulted in the
extraction Of millions of dollars from
the people Of the East in investment in
mining securities. want
to say of the $ls.OOO,OO0 that has
been taken up in the East for mining.

RAILWAY TITLES NOT GOOD
Acts and Patents Did Not
Convey Minerals.
Iron and Coal Lands Excepted,
and Go With Grant to
Railroad Company.

Judge Peter J. Somers, twice Mayor
of Milwaukee. Wis, and an member
of Congress. where he served on the
Committee on Public Lands for several
years, has just returned from the
White Horse country, in Washoe
County. where he has bought several
promising groups of mining claims,
says the Reno Gazette of May 49,.
When asked by a reporter what effect
the Central Pacific Railroad titles may
have upon the future of the district, he
said
Cannot Effect Mining Interests.
"These titles cannot effect the miu.
ing interests in the least. In 1852 Con-
gress passed a bill granting to the
Central Pacific Railroad Company al
ternate sections of land for certain
number of miles on each side of its
lines, but that Act especially reserved
from the operation of the grant all min
eral lands. In 1864 the Act was
amended SO as to declare that iron lands
and coal lands should not be considered
mineral lands within the purview of
the Act of 1862. consequently iron and
coal lands go with the grant to the rail.
road company, but other mineral lands
do not.
Precious Metals Not Conveyed.
"You will see the grant of the coal
and iron lands to the railroad company
makes the reservation of the other
mineral land in the Government all the
stronger.
Besides the patents of these alter
mates sections to the railroad company
reserve from the operation of the con-
veyance all mineral lands except iron
and coal lands. So you see that neither
by the Acts of Congress nor the patents
themselves, does the railroad company
receive any title whatsoever to lands
carrying the precious metals.
'If the patents did not contain the
reservation of the mineral lands a SER
ious question might arise, because it
might be said that the granting of
patent without such reservation might
be decision as determination that
the land was not mineral; but where
there is reservation in the law and
also in the patent it cannot be held that
a decision was made in regard to the
mineral character of the land at the
time of the issuance of the patents.
Mineral Lands Belong to Government.
Therefore. it is purely question of
fact that if the land carries the precious
metals it is mineral land and belongs to
Government, and all such Government
lands are subject to location. If they
do not contain the precious met
ais they belong to the railroad
company. l do not think for moment
the railroad company would assert title
to these lands. they being mineral in
character"
