OBJECTION TO SM0OT
BILL IS UNCHANGED
Mines and Mining Committee
of Commercial Club Firm
i'm Conclusion.

At a meeting yesterday Of the COM
mittee on mines and mining OF the
Salt Lake Commercial club, Chairman
Duncan MacVichie presiding, it was
decided that the position assumed by
the committee in the matter OF the
proposed Smoot law in regard to the
school land matter would not be al
tered in any respect as a consequence
of the communication Of Senator
Smoot to the club. The letter OF the
senator was in explanation OF his law
which the senator said would not con,
flict with existing rights to unpatented
mining claims on public lands Wltn1n
the various western states.
The committee found several defects
in the proposed law at the time II
was introduced in the senate. The
law purposes to give title TO states OF
school lands located within their re
spective boundaries, but the law as 1t
now stands would work virtual con
fiscation of unpatented mining claims
on mineral lands. The committee de
sired that the law proposed expressly
except mineral lands from its opera
tions, for it never has been the theory
or policy of the government to give
mineral lands to a state for school pur
poses.
Senator Smoot is expected to arrive
in Salt Lake within day or two anc
the committee decided to try and ar
range n conference on the proposed Law
between tho senator, Attorney Genera
Albert R. Barnes. members of the state
land board and prominent mining men
In the meantime Attorney E. W. Sen
Tor has been retained to draw up {
synopsis of the committees stand IL
the matter to be presented at the meet
ing. In discussing the matter yester
day Mr.. Senior said:
In his letter. Senator Snloot re-
iterates several times that the min
eral lands will pass to the state.
This is exactly contrary to the
stand taken by the state peoDle
who wish the present law changed.
They have asserted many times
that the mineral lands do not pass
to the state and this has been
incorporated in every protest or an
swer filed with the register and re-
ceiver Of the local land office in
the case Of contention regarding
patents being issued to persons
wishing to mine on state school
lands.

publicly before the delegates and 9TH
er union labor men, so that the
wrongs done the Philadelphia street

tlonal officers of this association may
be made known.
