civil ampro appropriation bill than yesterday the tho idea idoa M of adjourning con congress ress on the dinst nas has now been almost universally abandoned by the cemers me mers miers of both houses vit mt being at length pere perc perceived elved to be practicably impossible to dispose of the appropriation bills hilis by that date even if all other business should be abandoned the dates most gener ally talked of to lay day for a finai final ad journ burn ment are the or lath of june une it is believed now that both h houses 0 uses will continue to push forward the most import important ant aut bills and will not be influenced 10 to any con sid sider erable abio ablo extent by a question of party policy connected with the national conventions the desire to get away as soon as practicable is very general and while the laicans mv not be so eager to adjourn after their national convention shall shail have been held it is not nt believed they w wili will ill lil attempt to obstruct the way to adjournment leading democrats say that they intend to work to an adjournment by the of next month and if necessary to too carry it through the they y will hold a caucus and bring the party vote up to it then the laicans could prevent it only as well as the abe democrats byl byi b filibustering and there is not any des desire ire lre apparent among unions C them to do so they

eighty one dele delegates gateb gates to this convention representing the tile republican countie counties 3 which in 1878 cast of the 2 27 JO majority received by the republican candidates for governor were not invited to said sald caucus but absolutely excluded therl rom nom on application for admission simply because not pro bouncing noun eing cing a regular pass word never before required at a republican cau cus ther therefore elore wo we protest against 0 sald said said sald action which completely stifles the voice tolee of the tho strongest republican counties of the state and renders the presence of thelt their representatives es a mockery and a farce we protest against it because it is contrary to the tiie practices of the republican party of colorado and the country because bec beo tuse it is unfair and tyrannical hence in its spirit we have met in this convention as friends to fl fight lita ilta a common foe and not r each 0 other ther hence we deify deddy the

interior today to day transmitted to the senate a report from the commissioner of the general land office on the subject of entries of town sites on ual nai mineral lands commissioner williamson in in his report finst first gives briefly brief lj the outlines of tife the practice of tile the general land office under the laws relating to the subject citing a number of cases which have llave already been decided one of which is mentioned for the of illustrating the difficulties involved in cases where town tow n site sites saro sare are made upon 1 lands ands located purchased and valuable for placer mines ile he then says in view of the fact that it has for many years yeara been the law that no title to a valid mining claim or possession could be acquired through a town site entry and that when a surface placer claim of or value existed the townsite claimant necessarily had personal knowledge of or the incompatibility bill ty of the existence of both claims upon the same grounds I 1 am in the absence of ol f accurate knowledge of the equitable claims if an any existing g I 1 in n I 1 individual cas eases cases e s heretofore embraced in general adjudication unable to toad advisably vi conclude what if any equitable relief is due or what legislation could be directed to relieve such occupations cupat ions of town sites which would not at the same time destroy essential rights long since allowed by the law jaw to mineral claimants claimant sa concerning defects in th the e present laws commissioner williamson says that in view of all the difficulties which seem to surround this tills question and the uncertainty 0 of title wh which ich is represented to result from the apparently unavoidable construction st of existing laws such sueh legislation gi should be had as would most dl distinctly define the respective rights of mineral and town site claimants to this end he suggests that if new legislation be ii held heid eld eid it should provide for the following conditions dit ions first where mineral location of lodes or placer antedates town occupation I 1 patents should issue without reserva reservation tion to the mineral claimants second where the land is occupied as a town prior to mineral location and the charter of the town occupancy is clearly permanent and in hi good faith the same rule of priority should control and patent without reservation should sh ouid issue to the town authorities without regard to the character tf of the land th third ird when wilen the ground is known to be mineral in character and the location of mining claims and buildings and occupancy of dwellings stores etc proceed contemporaneously very lerent different diff questions of facts arise in every case when the surface occupants decide upon a per permanent manen t and organized occupation it is in their power to immediately apply for a patent or at least give a published notice of their claim and file the same in the district land office and this would be a full notice from its date to all subsequent locators of mining cl alnis claims and the rights ts of tile the town to 9 ground round should at attach faeh fach and patent issue without exee exception in favor of such r subsequent lo 10 locators while prior locations made during the period when everything except the mining location was considered as transient and calculated only for temporary purposes should not be embra embraced ceo in a townsite entry but be subject to entry and patent without any reservation b by y the individual owners thereof in conclusion the commissioner says 1 I think that any objection to this plan based upon the proposition that valuable mineral ground may sometime some time be patented to a town should be subordinated to the larger interests interest st public and private to be cecur secured ed only certainty of proceedings and place of title CHICAGO 26 prominent 1 republican politicians continue to come to this city in anticipation of odthe the
