V : SMITH DECLARES ! HIS BILL WAS GOOD Former ' Josephine ' County Repre senfatlve Cites (th Decision of , Federal . Judge . Sawyer to Prove .His Assertion. .' ' ' Grant lands of the Southern Pacific company In western Oregon are a sub ject of discussion amons ssaessors as well as leglalators from the various counties throush which the (0-mlle rail road plaster extends, and Interesting; de velopments ar expected at Salem dur ing; the 00m In ( legislative session re garding; these lands if the railroad com pany continues its policy of aegregatlon. "The bill proposed by me at the lsst session to prevent the railroad -company from putting - the klboab on all tha mineral deposits in the (rant limits is entirely constitutional and ' would have accomplished; -the-endsouglstrTrr behalf of the people," said. R. O. Smith, ex member of the house from Josephine county. "It waa the policy of the rail road company for some years, snd up to the time the grant was withdrawn frorn the market, to (rive deeds in which the mineral rights in the lands were withheld from the purchasers. . : Sawyer's Social on. " "The railroad company's deeds pro vided that the company could always enter upon lands to examine and seek for minerals and develop tha same. Its purpose in making such deeds waa to provide that In future if -any coal, oil or precious metals were found on the lands, the company could levy tribute in form of royalties ' from the owners. This kind -of conveysnce has been de clared by Judge Sawyer of the United States circuit court oMBallfornla to be lite ml; He heldTha't reservations of mineral rtahta In patents of lands from the government to & railroad company were void, a.the rights in tha land and its usee ' were coextensive with the grant; that you could not give a person something and then aay he didn't have it, . In that case the court's decision was to tha. advantage of the railroad company. Applying the principle to the Southern Pacific's grant lands In Ore gon,' it would work the other way." Mr. Smith, said the state can limit and regulate the method of conveying land; it may restrict the quantity a person can take, and it may even, pro hibit a corporation from taking lands. He cited that the Oregon A California Railway company waa originally unable to accept the land grant In western Oregon until it secured an amendment of the state laws, ' ' . Theory Wot astalaed. " . "The principle of divine right to levy upon the minerals and precious metals that may be discovered In land con veyed to the populace Is applied in Eng land and Germany, also in Turkey, where the aultan claims the privilege of collecting royalties from all minerals discovered at any time within the em plre," said Mr. Smith. "The courts of our country wilt not sustain this theory I wh.n.V.. I 4 ...ln.f nnhSfo luill.v ' Under a contract of sale from the Southern Pacific a purchaser of grant lands -Who might afterward diacover coal, oil, gold, copper, or any valuable metal could not have tha free use and benefit of the contents of tha soil, but would have to yield It up to the South' era Pacific Railroad company. ' - "I do not believe, however, that there is any force in the contention that tbo railroad company is bound to aell theae lands at not mors than $1.10 per acre, and only to what Is termed actual set tlers," said Mr. Smith. "The original act of congress. conveying the grant did not contain such provisions. They were added three years later, after the grant act had become effective. The company has paid taxes on these Isnds for years, and it would bo manifestly' unjust to ssy that they could not sell the best Of tbe lands for more tbsn I2.S0 per acre. "But the' company is morally bound to sell tha lands and cease holding them bsck from settlement snd use. It would be, proper snd advisable to aak congress to revoke the grant on the ground ef violation of the contract, unless the company Immediately places ' the lands on the market. There remains a lot ef unsurveyed lands inside the grant lim its, and congress should be ssked to pur chase the isnds at the grant price and throw them open to settlement."
