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1920, practically superseded that law, however, and provided for the leasing system for those.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.
