ALASKA MINING LAW
Continued from Page l.

 ing laws and patent thereto
 in g laws and patent thereto may be acquired. Lands under navigable waters, lying be- tween ordinary high water mark and low water mark may be worked under local rules and regulations and lands below low water mark may be worked and mined un- der such rules and regulations as the Secretary of War may prescribe in the interest of commerce and navigation. It is probably needless to say that lands under non-navigable waters may be taken up un- der the mining laws.
 The only scrip that can be used in Alaska is what is known as Soldiers Addition al Homestead Scrip" It can be used only on unsurveyed, non- mineral public land, but if mineral is found within the land after the purchase has been completed and patent issued for the land, such min eral belongs to the patentee, provided he had no knowledge of the existence of the mineral when he entered the land un- der scrip.
 When the location of a min- ing claim has once been per fected, that is, after the mak- ing of discovery, the marking of the boundaries, and the filing of the location notice, nothing remains to be done to hold the possession of such claim except the performance of the annual assessment work. For all practical purposes the miners title is perfect against all persons and no one has the rights to enter within his boundaries for any purpose whatsoever. It follows that no right to a lot or a number of lots can be acquired within the confines of valid subsist- ing mining claim without the consent of the owner thereof.
 Many attempts have been made in various sections of the Territory, after a rich strike has been made, by en- terprising merchants and oth- CTS to squat" upon a portion of a valid mining claim with the intention and for the pur- pose of securing a portion of the surface thereof for busi- ness or residential purposes. Such attempts are futile and the miner can eject such claimants provided, as already stated, that his location is in fact a valid subsisting mining claim, and it is not necessary that mineral in paying quanti- ties should have been discov-

Now comes one Of the vital Ques-
tions in the tangle
"Why hasn't B. c. rendered .Cava-
naugh a new contract?"
Simply because Cavanaugh's pres
ent football contract does not eX.
pire until next June. 1t has been
the popular opinion that Cava,
naugh's contract has expired. 1t
has been learned that it still has
six months to run.
The story of Cavanaugh's con-
tract with Il. G. is interesting.

HISTORY OF CASE

EAST LAS VEGAS, N. NJ, June
15.-Another chapter in the .turbu-
lent career of Carl c. Mhgee, Albu-
querque editor, was started here to-
day when he went on trial in the
district court on a charge of man
slaughter. Often before the courts
in the six years he has resided in
New Mexico the present is the most
serious charge he yet has faced.
The manslaughter charge grew out
of the fatal shooting of John &.
Lassetter, young highway depart
ment employee and friend of Magee
in the crowded lobby of hotel
here August 81, 1925.
The shooting of Lassetter occurred
during an alteration between Ma
gee and former judge David j.
Leahy, political enemy of the Albu-
querque editor, who twice had sem
fenced him to Jail.
According to numerous witnesses
who appeared at the inquest Of Las
setter, Magee was sitting on a divan
in the lobby of the Hotel Meadows
here talking to newspaper reporter
and friend when Leahy approached
and struck Magee in the face, knock
ing him to the floor Then it is
alleged that Leahy started to kick
Magee. At this juncture Lassetter
and another friend of Magee's grab
bed the arms of the former jurist
and Magee still on the floor pulled
a small automatic pistol and fired
two shots. One struck Lassetter in
the neck and he died within few
minutes. The other struck Leahy
in the forearm.
Leahy then walked from the room
while Magee and Lassetter were at
tended by friends.
Magee pleaded not guilty when ar
raigned and has been at liberty under
bond since the shooting occurred.
The affair is one of many spec
tacular incidents that have marked
the six year residence of Magee in

this state. Coming here from OKLA
bona in 1920 he purchased the Albu-
auerque Journal. Later he started
Magee's Independent and fo~ the
past few years he has been the
editor of the New Mexico State TIL
bune published at Albuquerque.
In July 1928 Magee was convicted
of libel in Judge Leahys Court fol-
lowing a series of attacks on the
courts of the state. The particular
article upon which the libel action
was based attacked Chief Justice
j. w. Parker of the New Mexico
supreme court. Magee was found
guilty after sensational trial and
was sentenced to the penitentiary by
Judge Leahy. He was pardoned by
Governor James F. Hinkle before he
had served any time.
