RICH GOLD DISTRICT
 OPEN TO AMERICANS

Phoenix, June 15.-Thomas P. Hy- land, for some time a resident vf Phoenix, has just returned from an ex- tensive prospecting trip in the region of Baviacora, Sonora, and has brought back with him samples of very rich gold and silver ore as we'll as samples of alum and graphite.
 "That section is wonderfully rich in mineral," said MT. Hyland. "T have seen ore bodies two to five feet thick that run as high as 500 ounces in silver, while in some of the mines the gold glitters in the vein."
 There is also an extensive placer district in the vicinity of Baviacora which provides a livelihood for number of Mexicans, he said. More dirt could be handled in a day with one American machine than they are able to handle in year, according to Hyland.
 NC mining has been done in that district since 1846 or 1S4S, the district

being practically abandoned at the time of the California gold rush in 1S49,' he continued.
 Mining in that district in the early days was fraught with many dangers. Ancient mining was, of course, not mining in the proper sense of the word. It would be better described as gouging. In some instances I have noticed where they had left the vein entirely, apparently without knowing it.
 "At the time of the exit for Cali fornia half of the miners were killed by the Yaqui Indians. During the last 50 years, the Yaquis have been successful in keeping prospectors out of the region by killing them as fast as they appeared. Now that the Mexican government has made peace with the Indians, American mining men are for the first time in 70 years seeking the treasures of that district,' he stated.
 Baviacora has a population of about 400 people who live and till the soil in a most primitive fashion, raising mostly corn, wheat and beans, Hyland said.
 "The Mexicans are very super' stitious people. Thirty years ago

August 20, 1890 (Stat., 969). In an. other claim, it was held that the land was expected from the operation of the railroad grant and the tract in- volVed patented to the homestead set tier. In a fourth claim the settler waived his right to the tract in the odd numbered section and made entry of the lands settled upon by him in the even numbered section which was pat ented to him.
 In the claims of six other settlers requests have been made that the con- pany relinquish the land under the provisions of said acts of June 22, 1874 and August 29, 1890, but thus far the company has failed to relinquish stat ing in answer to the letters of the Commissioner of the General Land Office that these requests will be giy- en the company's earnest considera- tion as soon as they can have the field examination made of the conflicting claims of the settlers in this section. In four other cases no action has as yet been taken and they are pending in the General Land Office for consid- eration in due course of business.
 The provisions of the acts above mentioned authorizing the company to relinquish it's lands for the benefit of settlers coming within the provi- sions thereof are not mandatory but simply provide a mode of adjusting conflicting claims depending upon the voluntary claims of the company. The correspondence in the various cases in which action has heretofore been talk en indicates willingness on the part of the company to relinquish for the benefit of settlers and I can not under stand the reason for delay. It is snc: gested that cooperation between the officers of the company and the part ies representing the settlers should produce results under the statutes a. bove mentioned which confer ample authority to adjust the conflicting claims and require no further legisla- tion for that purpose.
 The papers submitted with your letters are herewith returned.
 Respectfully,

DEPT. OF INTERIOR WRITES LETTER CON-
 CERN|NC SANDY LANDS

A letter was received this week from Congressman Carl Hayden con- cerning the application of Sandy peo' pie to have railroad lands on the San dy turned over to the government and lieu lands issued to the railroad conn., pany in their stead. The Interior De- partment wrote Carl Hayden as fol lows:
 Department of the Interior
 Washington
 I May 28, 1921
 Hon. Carl Hayden,
 House of Representatives.
 My dear MT. Hayden:
 Receipt is acknowledged of your let ter dated May IA, 1921, inclosing a petition of sundry settlers of Sandy Valley, Arizona, and citizens of Mo- have County, Arizona, relative to cer- tain odd numbered sections of land | in Ts. 16, 1872 and IT N., R. 13W., Arizona along the Big Sandy River, requesting that
 "The Department of the Interior would withdraw all of said lands from the said railroad grant protecting the possessory rights in the said settlers and in lieu thereof grant to the said railroad company, adequate corhpensa- tion from the other unappropriated lands of the United States in said State of Arizona"
 In reply thereto, you are advised that I am informed that the records of the Commissioner of the General Land Office show that numbered sec tions within the forty miles or prinl- ary limits of the grant of the Atlantic and Pacific Railroad Company, by the act of July 27, 1866 GA Stst., 292), of which the Santa Fe Pacific Railroad Company is the successor in interest under the provisions of the act of March 3, 1872, and inured to the com pany, unless mineral in character. They were listed by the railroad com pany, October 29, 1919, together with other land, amounting, in the aggre- gate, to upwards of 500,0OO acres, up- on which action is pending in the Gen eral Land Office. It is not within the power of the Land Department to take these lands away from the rail road company, and grant other lands in place thereof, and, indeed, it is probable that the Congress itself could not do so, although it can and has provided for voluntary exchanges of ands with said company and others.
 The claims of fourteen settlers along the Big Sandy River have been ,alled to the attention of the Land in which conflict exists IS to the railroad grant, in two of which claims the company relinquish- d under the provisions of the acts of : Tune 22, 1874 (1S Stat, 194), and :

TRADITIONAL JUDGE FOR
 ARTZONA-

The house of representatives re. ceived from the judiciary committee, Wednesday last, favorable report on bills for the creation of additional federal judges for Arizona and Mon tana. Arizona has long needed an other judge, as Judge Sawtelle has been swamped with work that comes through federal prohibition enforce ment. Aside from the booze enforce ment law the business of the federal court in this jurisdiction has grown enormously.

FIRE AT VERDE CENTRAL

Fire of an unknown origin destroy ed the engine room, shaft house and gallows frame of the Verde Central, at Jerome, last Friday. The fire put the operations of that company out for some time, but as this mine has shown qualities similar to the United Verde Con. mine it is probable that it will be re-equipped and put in commission as soon as possible. The people back of the property are among the best in the Jerome section and a big plan of development had been agreed upon when the fire wiped them off the map.
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1921-06-24

Mexican struck a wonderfully rich vein of gold ore, but knowing noth- ing about mining methods he worked without timbering, as a result of which he was killed in a cave-in. It is impossible to get Mexican near the mine to this day.
 "Twelve miles from Baviacora is an excellent hot springs which the natives claim has wonderful curative powers. I have had the opportunity of seeing it successfully tested in the treatment of stomach and blood dis eases," he said.
 MT. Hyland expects to return to Mexico early in September to continue work on his mining claims.
