C. M. FUNSTON :S S S STATIONER
STATlONER

no distinction can be made te- tween the grant of the right -of-way and the grant of the station grounds. As we have heretofore stated, title to the right-of- and to the station grounds may be acquired in advance of the con- struction of the road and hence in advance of any necessity for either. It follows from this view of the Act that the railroad com pany is entitled to the full quantity of twenty acres for each station.
 The argument against this view, that it should not be presumed that Congress intended to grant such liberal privileges to the rail- road company as twenty acres for each ten miles of its road is not convincing wht n we consider the extreme liberality of Congress in the matter of making such dona- tlons up to and since 1875. Good or bad, the policy of the govern ment was one of exceeding liberal ity, and the granting of twenty acres for each ten miles of railroad for station grounds is insignificant when compared to many of the land grants which were made to various transcontinental lines of railroad. l am of the opinion, therefore, that the right of the rail- road company to the station grounds IS superior to the right of the plaintiff to hold the land in conflict, under his mining location.
 Judgment will be entered in ac- cordance with this opinion.

PRINTER

that in Section 4 of the Act there IS no express provision for the filing of map covering the station grounds, the profile expressly named IS that of the right-of-wav. It IS doubtless true, however, that Section 4 should be construed as including station grounds in any such map that might be filed fl station grounds are sought to be acquired then it must follow that title to both the right-of-way and station grounds may be acquired at the same time, and title to both may thus be acquired in advance of the construction of the road.
 l am of the opinion, therefore, that whenever a railroad company, under the Act, acquires title to its right-of-way over the public lands, as an incident thereto, it acquires the right to take land adjacent thereto for station purposes, and that all persons thereafter acquir- ing rights to such lands take sub- lect to the prior right of the rail- road company. But whether this extreme view be sustained or not, 1t seems to me certain that upon the acquisition of title of the right of-way by the railroad company and the initiation of acts of selec- ton by the railroad company of grounds for station purposes, which in their nature afford evil dence and notice of such selection, third parties cannot obtain any right to such lands, except such as may be subject to the right of the railroad company.
 In the case at bar it is shown that the defendant constructed its road to its present terminus in 1901, ani that during the same year a survey was made of the station grounds, substantially as now claimed by the railroad com pany, by the chief engineer of the road. It is true that the survey as officially adopted by the company varies in some particulars from the survey made in 1901, but the ground in controversy was includ- ed within the firstLsurvey as in the subsequent survey. Whether the right of the defendant attached when its articles and proof of organization were filed or at the date the road was actually con- structed and the survey of the grounds made, am clearly of the opinion that the Cape Horn mining claim located by Cameron in 1902 is subject to the prior right of the railroad company to the ground in controversy as part of its station grounds. 1 do not construe the Act of 1875 as requiring any show ing of necessity on the part of the railroad company in order to ac- quire station grounds. By the terms of the Act the grant is un- conditional and as absolute in its terms as that of the right-of- and, unless we inject something into the statute which is not there,

 the rights of third parties to the
 ground covered by such right-of-
 way. The case of the Jamestown
 & Northern Railroad Company vs.
 Jones, I77 U. S., 125, is decisive
 of that question. The actual con
 struction of road upon the right of-way is held to be as effective to
 secure the grant of the right-of-way
 as the filing of the map called for
 in Section of the Act. The logic
 of the Jamestown case, following
 that of Railway Company vs. filling, oo U. S., 463, holding that
 the grant of right-of-way under
 the Act become one " braesenh
 immediately upon the filing of its
 articles of incorporate n and due
 proofs of its organization by the
 railroad company would seem to
 be that whenever the location of
 the right-of-way be fixed, either by
 the construction of the road or by
 the filing of the map provided for
 in said Section 4 of the Act, title
 to the right-of-way relates back to
 the time the railroad company be-
 came the grantee of the govern
 ment, which is, as we have said,
 the date when the filing of the articles of incorporation and due
 proofs of the organization of the
 company be made, and that thereby all intervening rights of third per-
 sons become subject to such right of-way. In passing, l may say
 that consideration of the Zeigler and Osborn cases fails to disclose any view expressed therein by the
 Supreme court which initiates
 against this construction of the
 holding in fhe Jamestown case and of the filling case. In the Zeigler case the precisel9 el9uestion as to the time when titleto the right-of-way
 vested in the railroad company
 was not considered. It is an open question whether or not under the facts in that case the right of the preemption claimant had not at- tached prior to the filing of the articles of incorporation and proof of organization by the railroad company. The requested instruc- ton which was commented upon would imply that the preemption settler was Tn possession of the land before the organization of the company. The question which was considered and decided re- lated to the right of the preemption claimant to obtain compensation for the loss of his possessory claim because of the seizure of the land | by the railroad company for its right-of-way. In the Osborne case, the facts clearly show that the preemption claimant was in pos session of the land prior to the filing of the articles of incorpora- tion and due proof of its organiza- tion by the railroad company. | Whether this be the effect of the | holdings or not, 1t is clear that | upon the construction of the road | a perfect title to the right-of- way | is obtained. It is to be observed | that not only is the right-of-way | granted in Section I of the Act, but station grounds are likewise granted, and upon the same con- dition, namely: the filing of the articles of incorporation and due proofs of the organization of the railroad cnmnapv Ac conetr,a
