The Interior Department has re-

habitants of the Bullfrog mining dis
trict in which they asked for a survey
by section lines of the mineral lands
Of Southern Nevada. The reason as
signed for the refusal is that the law
forbids the expenditure of the Nevada
appropriation for running section
lines on any but agricultural lands.
Township lines will be run in the south
ern Nevada territory, but until Con
gress authorizes it the department will
not make the survey by section lines.
