Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Commentary on the Mining Legislation of Congress: With a Preliminary Review of the Repealed Sections of the Mining Act of 1866 The following pages are the result of an attempt to systematize and condense the materials which constitute the law relative to the Mineral Lands of the United States, from the date of the first Mining Act, in 1866, to the present time. Those materials consist, in the main, of the various acts of Congress and the Revised Mining Statutes of the United States, the decisions and instructions of the Commissioner of the General Land Office and the Secretary of the Interior, the opinions of the United States Attorneys-General, and the decisions of the Courts, so far as the Mining Acts have been the subjects of judicial construction. The cases in the regular reports relative to these acts have not hitherto been numerous, but they have been of great importance, and have affected interests of large pecuniary value. The subject of the binding effect and the value as authority of the decisions of the Land Department has been discussed in its legal aspect in a chapter in the body of the work. It is sufficient to say, here, that they are the decisions of that Department, and of that branch of the executive portion of the Government, to which Congress has left the practical administration of the laws relative to the mineral lands of the nation. In that Department, at least, they are the law. There, they are of acknowledged force and authority. Under them the miner must proceed when he is in quest of the Government title to his mine; and a departure from them, or a want of attention to them, may completely invalidate his entire proceedings, or imperil his title. This is deemed sufficient to demonstrate their practical importance. It is enough to show that attorneys and clients interested in any way in mineral lands should be familiar with these decisions, and, being thus acquainted with them, should follow them. They have, therefore, been admitted among; the materials which form the basis of this work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
