INTERIOR DEPARTMENT GIVES |
VIEWS ON ASSESSMENT WORK
REQUIREMENTS {REVIEWS LAWS
Clarification of a number of ques
tions connected with assessment
work and other phases of the mining
laws is undertaken by the Depart
ment of the Interior in a letter to
Mining Supervisor It D. Stewart in
which the relation of the mining laws
nf 1907, 1912 and 1921 to each other
Is discussed. The Department's view-i
point is outlined by First Assistant
Soe.retary E. C. Finney.
The matter was brought to the at
tention of the Department by Mr.
Stewart In submitting several ques
tions formulated by Attorney General
John Rustgard.
The Act of 1907 provides that fail
uro to complete assessment work by
December 31, shall forfeit the claim
whether or not is be relocated by
others. The Act of August 1. 1912,
provides $100 worth of work shall
bo done on every 20 acres of a
placor claim "each year, including
the year of location." The Act of
August 24, 1921, provides that the
period within which the work re
quired by Section 2324 R. S. is to
be done shall commence July 1.
List of Questions
The list of questions submitted by
Mr. Stewart is in substance as fol
lows:
Under the Act of 1912 is a claim
forfeited if the work is not com
pleted within the year, or is the Act
of 1907 modified so that the claim
may be held if work is resumed be
fore the relocation though not com
pleted within the year?
Poes the Act of 1921 affect the
Aft of 1912 so as to change the
period within which the work must
be done? Tf it does when must the
first work be done under Section 1
of It he Act of 1912? Must it be
done within the calendar year in
which the claim was located? Must
It ibe done within 12 months of lo
cation? Or must it be done before
July 1. next after location? lu other
words, does the Act of 1921 apply to
any other wort required than that
required by Section 2324 Revised
Statutes, cr does it also apply to the
work rrquirod by the Act of 1912
though not required by the older
sections of the Revised Statutes?
It Ithe first work required by Sec
tion 1 of the Act of 1912 is not done
before the time for performing it
expires 'is the claim forfeited or may
c'na locator “resume?"
Mr. Steward, at the suggestion of
Mr. Rustgard, referred the questions
tc Director H. Poster Bain, of the
bureau of Minos, awl asked that they:
b- submitted to the U. S. Attorney j
Unmoral for an opinion.
Reply of Department
Dr. Bain forwarded the correspond .
unee to the Department and Assist !
ant Secretary Finney, under date of I
February 5, last, gave its interpreta-l
tlon of the Acts in question as fql-l
lows In part:
''I do not deem 'It essential at this I
time to submit it he- matter to the De-|
partinent of Justice for an opinion.,
No concrete case i3 presented and!
any opinion expressed would bo ad-;
visory only. In general it may be
saitd that the question with respect i
to the due performance of assessment!
work is one which involves the right j
of possession between litigating
claimants in the courts having juris
diction. '
■’In substance the questions sub
mitted are whether the resumption]
cf work will protect a placer claim,
located under 'the Alaska placer act
of 1912, and whether the act of 1921
changed the assessment period for
such placer claims.
“The act of March 2, 1307 (34
Stat., 1243), amended the lavs gov
erning labor or (Improvements upou
mining clailms in Alaska anl ix
pressly provided that upon failur^i t
•the owner of any claim to co only
with the provisions of the act is to
the performance of work and im
provements ‘such claim shall become
forfeited and open to location by
ethers as if no location of the same
^iad ^ver bean made.' Under that
legislation the cour-tB have held that
an owner in default cannot save his
clc.itn by the resumption of work
prior to a relocation, the statute
being in effort self-executing with ra
mped to the forfeiture.
Laws Further Modified
"Tho mining laws were further
modified and amended In their ap
plication .to the Territory of Alaska
as to phtcer claims by tho act of
August 1. 1912 (37 Stat., 242). That
act prescribed that on every plater
Lglalm thereafter located In Alaska
not less than $100 worth of labor
should be performed or improve
ments made ‘during each year, in
chidimg the year of location, for each
and every 20 acres or excess frac
ion thereof.’
“1 have no doubt that the forfei
ure provision of the act of 1907 oon
inuos and applies to those placer
teams located after the act of Au
:ust 1, 1922, equally as well to those
oca ted prior thereto. There is noth
ng In the later act pointing to lli
■ryitrarv. It simply prescribes more
itringent requirements with reaped
o annual work.
“The act of August 24, 1921, (42
3tat., 186) is entitled:
AN ACT Changing the period
for doing annual assessment
work on unpatented mineral
claims from the calendar year t»
the fiscal year beginning July t
each year.
“It Is in form an amendment o
Section 2 of the act of January 22
1880. (21 Stat.. 61), and provides:
That the period within which
the work rruiuirfed to be done an- j
anally on all unpatented mineral |
claims located since May 10,
1872, including such claims In the
Territory of Alaska, shall com- 1
memo at 12 o'clock meridian on
rhe 1st day of July succeeding
the date of location of such
claim PROVIDED FURTHER,
That on all such valid existing
claims .the annual period end
ing December 31. 1921, shall con
tinue to 12 o'clock meridian July j
1, 1922.
Special Acts Cited
"Certain suspension enactments ex
cusing annual work upon mining
claims in Alaska have applied to
placer as well as to other claims.
See the act of December 1. 1913 (38
Stab, 235); joint resolution of Feb-,
many 28, 1919 (40 Start., 1213), an 1
