test by person who shows qualifica-
tions under the rules, with view to
clearing the record of an invalid entry.
To refuse such contests would result
either in the immunity of invalid
claims included within the limits of
temporary Withdrawals from contest
or entail upon the government the
burden and expense of procuring their
cancellation.
The land department has no jurisdic-
tion of questions except those re-
lating to entries of particular tracts
of public lands. The personal griev-
ances of individuals connected with
public land matters cannot be con-
sidered by the department.
A petition for certiorari should al
ways contain copy of the decision Of
the general land office refusing to
transmit an appeal, or matter in ques-
tion. This is necessary in order that
the facts appearing of record, upon
which the commissioner acted, may
be shown. When a decision of the
commissioner is complained of, the
petition for certiorari and exhibits
must Show that the decision COM
planned of was erroneous and that
substantial right has been denied.
Mining
Where a protest alleges that only
part of the ground is mineral in
character and embraced in valid, sub
sisting lode location, and such protest
is sustained by the department, only
that part of the entry should be can
celled which is in direct conflict with
the mineral claims. The balance of
the entry should be allowed to remain
intact.
Where a citizen of the United States
has made an entry upon public lands
of the United States under and in ac-
co rdance with the homestead laws OF
the United States, which entry is in
all respects regular, he may utilize
sand and gravel on said land for the
purpose of improving the entry. Re-
moval of sand and gravel prior to fill
ing and subsequent thereto, for the
purpose of sale may constitute tres
pass, but will not, necessarily, invali-
date the entry.
A valid mining location can be bas-
ed only upon discovery made WITHIN
it's limits and upon public lands of the
United States.
When the land department has rem
dered decision that lands within the
urinary limits of railroad grant were
mineral in character at the date OF the
grant. il excepts such lands from the
operation of the grant and no rights
| attach thereto under the grant upon
subsequent adjudication bv that 'e-
paltment, in another proceeding. that
Inc lands in question are at the time
non mineral.

MENACE seen
in Power DEAL
WINNIPEG OPPOSES LEGIsLA-
TIoN CONCERNING NEW uTIL-

Winnipeg, March 21.-The firm of
Morgan & Co. officially denies that
it is interested in the purchase of the
Winnipeg Street Railway Co. e. M.
Rees, chief factor in the Manitoba
Power Co, says, in spite of Sir William
Mackenzie's denial, that the deal Is
completed, only awaiting legislation
to pay over some $25,000,00O A strong
delegation of citizens, including city
officials, today, before the law amend
ment committee, savagely opposed
legislation calculated to permit the
Manitoba Power Co. to take over the
Winnipeg Street Railway Co. and al
lied interests, with increased power.
An animated debate, to continue
three hours, will be taken up in the
Legislature. The city is determined to
oppose the deal to the bitter end, as
it claims the deal infringes on the
city's vested interests. Other mu-
inequalities of the province will join
in the opposition, as the Manitoba
Power Co. bill is in the nature Of a
blanket franchise extending through
out the province.

The judge suspected trouble at once
and unwrapped the package carefully.
When he started to lift the box he
found that it was heavier in one end

Judge Rosalsky immersed the bomb
it would have still exploded, owing to
the action of water on certain chemi-

while doing so the bomb exploded,
