CAMERON WINS
MINE CONTEST
Unpatented Claims, Real
Estate and Title Vested
in the Holder.

Phoenix. Ariz.. March 18.-Unpatent-
I'd mining claims are real estate and
title thereto is vested in the holder
not the government. This is the de-
cision Of the supreme court of the Dis.
trict of Columbia in an Arizona case.
It affects every owner Of an Unpat-
ented claim in the whole country.
Two years ago the general land office
through the Arizona land office at
Phoenix. instituted contests against 1S
unpatented claims in the Grand Cam
yon, held by Ralph H. Cameron. Came
ron claimed that the government no
longer had any right or title to the
locations. that they were his property
to be decided or mOrtgaged as he saw
fit The government, he claimed, could
not contest his title in one of its own
departments but only in a regular court
of law. The government claimed that
it held title to the locations until pat
ents were issued
Cameron Gets Decision.
Cameron applied to the federal court
for the district of Arizona for an in
junction restraining the land office Of
ficials from contesting his title to the
claims in question. The Injunction was
denied so Cameron carried the matter
to the supreme court of the District
of Columbia, which has ruled in his
favor.

MAY SEIZE CHURCHES
De Faeto Government Plans To Take
Priests Property

Mexico City, March 27--Thc APP
propriation Of lands, houses, ana
Jewels and some other personal be-
Ionpines of native Catholic priests is
being seriously considered. as means
for accommodating funds to swell the
reserve which is to be used for re-
iceming the present paper money IS
sue.
The scheme was first brought to
the attention Of the Qucrctaro gov
crnment by Dr.. Siourob, governor OF
the state of Guanajuato, where 1t is
understood such appropriations al
ready had been committed. 1t is pre-
dictcd that the plan will spread /"
all parts of the republic.
The sponsors of the measure quote
the old law Of the reform days, when
church edifccs were taken over by
the nation.
During the administration of Benz
to .Juarcz many church buildings were
taken over and are now being used
rs museums, libraries ard schools
and as other government institutions.
Under the plan the public is asked
dcnounce the holdings Of the priests
that the government officials may pro-
coed to the appropriation of their
property.
