GET PATENT ON.
MINE CLAIMS,
IS LEGAL ADVICE
(By CHAS. L. GILMORE)
In Mining and Industrial News
Great numbers of -people erroneously believe that a mining location
on the public domain amounts to the
same thing as a title in fee.
Between individuals this is true
as long as the location is valid in
its inception and maintained accord:
ing to law. However, the right to
take up public land, whether mineral
or otherwise, is only that right
granted by some statute of Congress.
It is no argument to say that the
early day miners held and worked
their claims witithout any specific
grant. from the United States. As a!
matter of pure law, they were mere
trespassers, There was not, nor
could there be, any absolute right
In any of them to hold their respective claims in hostility to or in de1-.
ogration of the sovereign title of ths
United States.
Mere occupancy of public lands
without some elaim under some .
Statute of Congress can never ripen }
into a title. :
In 1866 Congress first recognized
mining on the public domain in the
West, and in 1872 Congress enactea
the ‘Mining Code.”
Thus there came into being laws
under which a miner could obtain “a
title to his claim, This included all
forms of minerals. On Feb. 11, 1897,
the act was approved enabling pattents to issue for petroleum deposits, following on January 21, 1901,
by an act providing for patents to
salt deposits.
Under the then existing laws,
these various mineral] deposits were
held, worked and passed to patent.
Then on July 17, 1914, like a bolt
out of the*blue came the act reserv.
ing all phosphate, nitrate, potash,
oil, gas and asphaltic minerals to the
United States and barred further locations.
The act approved February 24,
1920, practically superseded that
law, however, and provided for the
leasing system for those. minerals.
No patent could thereafter issue.
While it is true existing lotations
were protected to a certain extent by
sranting the holders a limited time
! within which to apply for leases, yet
adapted to the needs of the
farm home.

During the ‘twenty
have practiced before the Land Department. I have viewed with conmany injustices were done. If thé
holder of a location didn’t get under
the wire in time he simply lost his
location.
Today there is a stron movement:
in official Washington to include all
forms of minerals in the leasing
system. Since all minerals except the
metals have been reserved and may
be: held only under lease, it igs argued that the metals ought to be in
the same category. :
Nor is this idea merely an idle
dream. It was powerful enough tu
reserve all coal, petroleum, phosphates, salt, ete. and it is powerful
enough to ‘include gold and other
metals. 2
You have seen the operation of
the acts of Congress above named:
the operations of the Federal Water
Power Act, where under the guise of
developing some remote, contingent
reservoir, lands’ anywhere near a
stream are permanently withdrawn
from mining location; the blanket
withdrawals under the Taylor Grazing Act, and the manifold withdrawals “in aid of classification.”
Thus you can See the eastern
policy which dominates all] western
lands and from. that development
there is but One deduction: It is
not impossible for an order to come
from official] Washington any day
to the effect that all minerals of
whatsoever character may no longer
be the subject of-a mining location
and that all holders of any such Jocations shall have a limited period
within which ‘to apply for lease under an agreement to pay royalty to
cern this gradual encroachment on
the west through policies formulated in the east. Out of that experience
I can make but one deduction and
that is that within a very short
time, the mining location, as we now
know it, will cease to exist, and he
who wishes to mine on the-public
domain will be required to first o
tain a permit from the Secretary of
the Interior, and second will be required as a consideration for that
permit, to pay a royalty on i
“take.’’
. aie
You hold your location and exercise your right to mine thereon at
present by reason of the Act of May
10, 1872, and if that act is repealed
or superseded without a_ saving
clause, you have no property right
the United States is bound to recognize.
Therefore I urge you to consult at
lawyer .experienced’ in the practice
of obtaining patents to public lards
and proceed to perfect your poss2ssory right to your mining claim at
the earliest possible date. It is only
when you have a patent to your lo.
cation that you can feel certain as to
your future rights in it.
