Nevada County Official Press, SUNDAY.....JULY 22, 1883. — °. Mining Law. An application for a patent for lode claim shoul not be rejected because it conflcts with a patent placer claim, in case the lode was known to exist at the date of the application ‘for placer patent, Where the owner of a known lode fails to file his adverse claim during the statutory period of publication of the placer application, he is restricted by law to his lode, and twenty-five feet of surface grouud ou each side thereof, In the State of Texas, all minerals in the public school, University, asylam, and public lands of the State of Texas are reserved from the operation of the laws for the sale of such lands, In Texas, any one taking up a mining claim shall do at least $200 worth of work per annum on the , Same, and furnish annual proof of the same to the Land Board, General averments of fraud and wrongful use, without specification or detail, do not present a case for consideration, The statutory direction that the end line of a lode claim must be parallel should be followed as a rule, but under peculiar circumstances an exception to the rule may be. allowed, The taking of more width of surface ground for a mining claim than is allowed by law does uotinvalidate the location, and the mouument stakes may be moved to cast off the excess, What is fundamental to the possession and right of possession of a mining claim is remitted to the courts, and parties who fail to set up an adverse claim to an application regularly made cannot protect their righte by a protest submitted to the Land Department, One making application for patent to mineral land, is required by law to put on the premises notice thereof, The courts will presume such notice given; which notice is of itaelf & warning to all that the parties are about applying for patent—seeking to obtain title. If one party knows the facts, or has opportunity to kuow them, and chooses to take his chances, the other party is fot estopped. : The Secretary of the Interior has just decided that where two. applications are pending in part for the same ground thé abandoument of Oue gives life to the other, instead ol jthe property reverting to the public domain, Also that a claimant obtaining a judgment in his. favor trom a competsut courtcan proceed with his application for a patent, notwithstanding an appeal, and ali willbe valid if he be sucvessful in appellate court. Hereafter, no application for a patent to mineral land will be recognized at the land offices, which includes more than one lode. . CoLonet SHaw, the United States Consul at Manchester, England, has received from President Arthur an autograph letter, acknowledging the receipt of a portrait of John Bright, with the latter’s autograph, sent as a souvenirof the recent Birmingham celebration, In accepting the gift the President states that in his esti motion its value is greatly entranced by “the kaowledge that the auto graph of the donor was placed upoo the gift by Mr. Bright himself specjally fur me,” and adds: ‘I have had the port:ait appropriately hung upon the walls of the Executiv Mansion.” ; Tae lizhtoing-rod man never gets struck.
