that all decisions of your oltice, this of

annulled, and the question presented i
was, whether said land as a w hole, or '
the greater part of any smallest legal j
EUhiii vision thereof, was swamp and ;
overflowed within the meaning of the
Act ot !cpteiuher 24, lHoil, on the 12th

an alhi mative answer lo said question j
would dispose of the same, under the
rulings of the 1 h-part inei.t , a negative

it was coupled with the establishment of
the tact, that such lands were not dry
nor meadow, but "swamp and over
flowed'' as a whole, or an to the larger
jxirlion of ea-.fi and every smallest legal
siilxlivision thereof. And in tins connec

All land t-nhji-ct to "oveillow" does
not bill within ihe meaning of the act.
The laml must be either too wet by rea
son ol its location, or must be rendered
unlit fur cultivation by oveillow. Lands
subject to periodical and occasional over
flow, do not come within tin: meaning of
the ajt, if the waters subside in time for
a crop. '1 he case of the State of Oregon
against Newton S. (ioodlow, involving
lands situated in T. 41 H., K. bi K., was
one from your otlice and affected lauds
sit uated in a valley w hich w as overflowed
hy the melting of the snows arid the
spring ruins. The w ater re( eded before
June i, and clops ol hay and cereals
weie laised upon the laud, it was held
that the lands did not puss under said
grant. See deision Secretary Teller to
Commissioner, July 13, JHK.'f (2 L. I) ,
(51). The case of Moylaml vs. The State
of Oregon, also arising in your office, the
facts being similar to those in the (iood
low' case, was decided by the Depart
ment March 15, 18'Jfj (10 L I).,:J21), and
the claim of the State was denied. See
also State of California vs. The 1,'nited
States H L. IK, .ri21, State of Oregon et
al., vs. Motheishcad ID b. J)., i.M,

To prove that the lands involved here
ill weie swampy and i vcrMnwed, within
the meaning of the vtanl, the Mate and
its grantee must overcome the presnmp-
that such report was made in part the
ha-i-ni a leMirvev. Such reistrt cannot
be considered lis testimony in the case,

all such rep'Uts were excluded hy the
terms of the st ipulatn 11 hereiuhefore
cited, and it has Ia'cn nientiiined and
Cjiioted herein, not a" a part of the testi
ni'iin, hut as forming a part of the his
tory of the ca-e. necessary to a clear
comprehension thereof.
Nor d"es the fact tha'. Ieputy Sur
veyor Neal was able to extend the lines
ol -aid townships to their entirety in
ls."i7 tend to show that said lands were
swampy and overflowed on March 12, '
ImiO, nor impcarli the returnn of the'
iK'puty Mirveyors who had formerly re
tun. ed said lands as forming the bed of
alike. There is no question whatever '
that the character of the land had under
gone a chunge from the time of the for
mer surveys to that of the latter, and it
i- no where siitik.'ested that it was prac
tical e 'T even Htsshie to have .Mended
the lines of said surveys in lToand'
li!, as the same was done in lss7.
rurihcrtni.rp, it appear from the field
notes of fieputy Mirveyor Neal, that the
woik when done in 'H7, was accomplished
alter minh dillu ully, owm to the pres
t nee ot open water and mud. In one
instance he was unable to establish a
section corner owing to the depth of the
water, and in another he repotted that a
lii.euasiuit Ihtoiigh water trout three
inches to three feet deep. See field notes,
Mati- of (itegoii, Vol. 127. 'Ihe returns!
ol Neal as to the difficulties encountered ,
aie fully corroborated by the testimony
of the witness, Morris, who was an em
ploye 1 f the Warnei Valley Stock Com- ;
pany, ami called hy said corporation as,
a w it ness in its behalf. !
Again, the work of Neal was done i
under exceptional circumstances. Ilia '
instructions; were peremptory to extend '
the lines; of survey where practicable,
The other sin veyom, w ho had preceded i
him, had been charged by Secial A'etit j
Shackelford with fraud and collusion'
w it h the offieem and Hents of the State I
of )r (ion and its grantee, by reason of j
returning' faid land as lake. Thele-
part incut, in ordering said survey, had j
expressed a doubt an to the existence of
a hike within the confines of Warner1
valley. I lot It factions, if such the con-!
tending parties may fe termed, seemed
then in favor of the prosecution of the;
work. The survey had been brought .
about by the earnest and continued in- i
sisteiice of the settler claimants, while!
the testimony shows that Mc 'onnaughy, j
the original swamp land claimant, and j
at present a memlter of the corporation,
the Warner Valley Stock Company, was
so anxious to have the work done, that !
be furnished a man, a two-horse team I
and sled, to further the sauus Neal had i
every incentive to make linn persevere j
in the work. 1
Hut taking said surveys of Neal to be
the only ollicial expression of opinion as 1
to the character of said lamls, but a
small part thereof is indicated hy his j
plats and field notes as being "swampy I
and overflowed." Much of the land is j
returned as "subject to annual over-!
How," some as subject to ''continual
overllow," w hile much of the remainder
i- indicated as dry.
The evidence for the State et al. may
be classed under four different heads:
First, that which it was admitted cer
tain witnesses would, if present, testify.
Second, the testimony given by the wit
nesses at the rehearing and the abstract
of that taken at former hearings of those
w ho had heen upon and examined tlie
land at different times subsequent to
March 12, INK). Third, the ex pert testi
mony or that given by the surveyors or
levelers, and fourth, the documentary
testimony extracted from the journal of
Captain, afterwards, General John C.
Fremont.
Aside from the fact that the can", was
continued for different reasons beyond
the time contemplated by the motion, to
