DISPOSAL OF RAILROAD LANDS

The Medford Mail discusses the railroad land problem
in avery sensible practical way Its plan for dlsposmg
of this grant follows:
Jnder the decision of the supreme court concerning
the O. & c. railroad lands congress will have power to
egislate concerning the disposition Of the same inns
situation is of much interest to the people OF SOuCef
Oregon Up to the present time about the only persons
heard from are those who want to get $4,000 tract OF I'm
Der land for $780, and the ordinary bunker who THINKS
only of the question OF taxes.
"Both of these interests of far less Importance than
the manner of the disposition Of these lands Will have upon
the mining industry of Jackson and Josephine c0unteS
Most of the mineral lands Of these two counties are within
the limits of the grant large part OF which has been by
the government decided to the railroad company inns
condition has been the greatest mpediment to mining
development during the past twenty years.
f one will look at township map and mark each odd
numbered section as railroad land the grant provides
it will be seen that each even-numbered section is joined
on each side by a railroad section.
"Under these circumstances the tracing and eXplora-
ton of mineral veins and deposits is impractical because
no sensible man will spend his money in that work when
he knows that if the development runs into the oddnum
bered section it will not be possible to secure the title from
the railroad company.
"There is no plan that could more quickly and surely
kill the development of mining country than the private
ownership of each alternate section 1t is too obvious to
need further comment.
"When the disposition of these lands before congress
southern Oregon should make her desires known and
these should be based upon the future welfare OF this
county and not upon the present demands OF the Ocator
GRADERS and tax maniacs.
There lis policy that is adapted to all the lands
Each county district should be dealt with according to
the resources and nature of the lands In southern Oregon
the principal question should be the restoration of the
title of the lands in the mineral districts to the govern
ment so that same would be open to the prospecor
plorer and miner for all time to come.
"f the mineral lands are in the tmbered section pro-
vision should be made for the sale of the timber while the
title to the land would remain in the government and be
open to the prospector
"A commission should be provided to segregate and
map out the mineral districts, and when this is done the
government should purchase these lands, that is the
only means by which the be thrown open to the
prospestOr and miner"
