The tourist who learns, at Yuma, that he is inside ‘California line, sees before hi PHE MINING Law. In commenting upon the decision of the jury in the case of Hyman vs. Wheeler, recently tried in . the United States Circuit Court at Denver, the San Francisco Call says: The result of this case will afford new reasons for a change in * the mining law under the act of . 1872, which is embodied in seétion } of the Revised Statutes. The ‘ofthe apex of a ‘‘minoral vein, lode or ledge” can follow it down whenever it goes into territory of which the surface is owned by others. This has been the rule on the Comstock, and quite re~ cently, whenrumors were spread of new discoveries in the unexplored territory on the east flank of the mountains, it was said that ifthe rumors were confirmed they would inure to the benefit not of the owners of the unexplored territory but to those of the Ophir, Con. Virginia and Best & Beleher, which would claim to hold the apex of the new mineral. When the discovery of silver at “Leadville attracted attention to that camp-several years ago and every foot of possible mineral territory was located, owners of loca. tions resisted the claims of apexowners to follow their veins. The cases went into court, and a final decision was only rendered three months ago in the Supreme Court of the United States, which held _ that the mineral deposits of Leadville were not veins, lodes or ledges, within the meaning of the law of 1872, but were horizontal _ deposits between a layer of per: phyry and a layer of lime.
