Suit: of .Mineral I. anils.
The scheme of Phermin of Ohio to dis
pose of the Mineral I.an.l l rapidly ap
proaching coniumatlon Tin- committee to
whom that subject was referral will report
n bill, tome of the provisions of which will
l found In our toltfsraplilc columns. We
are nt a los to know whether It l content
template to ailvertl and sell the Mineral
Land now In possession of. and itetuully
being worked ly our mining population.
If not. the survey ami talc of those Miner
nl Lands yet unuceuplvd will not yields
very rich harvest to the Government. unless
bought and held by capitalist for specula
tive rurpoH's; if so. then we ttrtly pro
test against so glaring an frJutlc? to that
Induitrial class uiou whom, in n (treat
measure, depend llw proprly of lint l'a
ciflc Stales. Tlio-u now working; the Mlutr
nl Lands have occupied tlieu In thf faith
that Government would adhere to it poli
cy of the last seventeen ywrs. nnd have, by
adventurous and patient Industry, siven
value to hnd that otherwise would have
been unless to the (loNtrnnient. W'v
would like to 1k shown the lapilty of r
ipiirlriK n miner, who bad perbap cxpeml
ed yearn of severe 1 tbor and thousand.! of
dollars in opening a mining c'altn. to at
tend n public auction for liv purpose of
buying that which had only bn rondeml
valuable by his enterprise, nml wrlmp to
have the mor'.Ifleatloii of slii It taken
from him, by some person competent to
out bid him. We may Ihj mwler false Im
pressions with resurd lo this bill, We Irust
that It may bo so; but fiom the ,ipKiriit
disposition on the part of CoogreM during
the last icssloii to destroy wining enter
prise, by odloud nml impolitic legl-latiixi,
wo have every reiion to fwr that It will
be again nttempted,
We are to have mints. aaying ofllcw
and Geologists In each land district. Doubt
less the former would b- convenient ami en
able t ho miner lo obtain the full value for
Mi ore or dust; but we must confex that
the latter, no mittcr bow well verred in
tbeoryj no nntler how convernant with the
technical language of his craft, would udd
no value to our placer and quartz mluw.
Wo do not want pampered, nhlle-shlrUil
ofllcials among ui to perplex us with Geo
logical technicalities, but who are unable
to point out where the precious ore lie
bidden and Inform the miuvr where he
might hope for iMcceu. We want an enter
prising population to search for it with
practical skill, and the brawny arms of la
bor lo dclvu for It wllh sturdy blows and
put It In circulation, We Jo not waul Gov
ernment appraiser' to place a flcllcluiii val
ue on laud that, peihaps, does not contain
tufllclent mineral to pay for extracting It;
we want capital, only, lo tlou'lop the mines
and give an Impetus lo the mining Interest.
If Congress understood the matter thor
oughly thoy would encourage the miner by
giving us n mint In every dUUict whertt
necessary, ami impose Just sudlclentwlgiior
age to pay Its current expanse!, but plaoe
no resliictlon whatever on the free use of
the Mineral Lauds. The miner does not
care n straw for the "feo simple;" all he
desires Is peaceable possession until his
claim is woiked out and leave to search for
another. Wo trust that tho Ilvprctcnta
tlvea from this coast may b wary nnd tec
that our interests uro fulthfully guarded,
Dy their energy and able argument, tlmy
prevented tho pasage of an odious bill of
this character at the last cession, and wo
hope that tbi'y will defeat any schemoat the
present lime likely to crush so Important
an industrial Intercut.
