ACTION MAY OPEN
RICH OIL LANDS
Attorney Sues Southern Pacific
to Determine Title to
Coalinga Holdings

Attorney Edmund Burke of San
Francisco has commenced IAN action in
the superior court OF Fresno county
against the Southern Pacific company
to determine the title of oil lands at
Coa1inga. estimated TO be worth nearly
sIO.ooo.0o0. The suit applies solely to
the Coalinga lands, but the decision
will affect vast tracts held by the rail-
road in the Midway and Sunset oil
fields. Should the action be prosecuted
to successful issue a great petroleum
producing area would be open TO ioca-
tion.
Under the original land grants to the
railroad patents were issued TO this
territory. 1t was expressly provided,
however, that all mineral bearing land
should be exempt and revert 10 the gov
ernment. The Southern Pacific claims
that the issuance of the patents gave
full fee to the land and was in every
way a determination that the lands
were agricultural. The fact that they
were later found to be mineral. accord
ing to the railroad version, could in no
way affect the patent.
Burke. however. takes the position
that, being mineral. the title to the
lands could never be vested in the rail-
road. and notwithstanding the patents.
still remain government acreage.
In March of this year Burke went TO
Coannga and made Placer mining Ioca-
tions on 1900 acres Of land and later
instituted the action in Fresno county
to quiet title. The case win come up
for trial at Fresno during the fall. 1t
has attracted the attention of oil and
mining men throughout the state.
