NINE OWNERS PERIL.

Under the above caption the Rene
Gazette says that the presence in this
state of a special government agent
+ whose mission is to inquire into the
method now being pursued by the
railroad company to patent the lands
granted to it many years ago by the
government. regardless of whether
it is known mineral land or not, is
arousing the owners of claims in the
threatened sections all along the
40 mile wide strip.
While it is generally known that
the railroad was granted this inn
mense territory, very few claim
owners realize the imminence of the
peril that confronts them at this
time, which involves the ownership,
in many instances, of proven mineral
bearing lands that have been in un-
disputed possession of claim owners
for years The land department of
the railroad company has been
quietly applying for patents on hun
dreds of sections of this land for
years and the time for filing protests
on many of them will expire next
January. In the meantime hundreds
of claim owners in the threatened
district are sleeping on their rights
and will suddenly awaken 10 the re-
alization that much valuable mining
territory has passed uncontested into
the ownership of the railroad
In granting this vast empire 10
the railroad company the govern
ment expressly reserved the min
eral lands, il is true But once "A
patent is secured to the lands it is
doubtful if the title can ever be
wrested from the patentee. especial
ly if. as is now the case. the disoov-
erers of mineral on the lands make
no objection within the time limit OF
six years which is accorded them for
fling their protests. It will probably
be found that in every case the rail
road company has complied with all
the requirements of the law in max
ing its application for patent, how
ever quietly and nnobtrusively it has
gone about IT, 50 it behooves every
claim owner to be alive to the sit
uation and determine at once vheth-
ed his claims are located on the odd
numbered sections and act accord
ingly.
