MILL SITES
Section 2337 of the Revised
statutes of the United States
provides:
‘Where non-mineral land not
contiguous to the vein or lode
is used or occupied by the
proprietor of such vein or lode
for mining or milling purposes,
such lion-adjacent surface
ground may be embraced and
included in' an application for
a patent lor such vein or lode,
and the same, may be patented
therewith, subject to the came
preliminary requirements as to
survey and notice as are ap
plicable to veins or lodes; but
no location hereafter made of
such Ron-adjacent land shall
exceed five acres, and pay
ment for the same must be
made at the same rate as fixed
by this chapter for the super
ficies of the lode. The owner
of a quartz-mill or reduction
works, not owning a mine in
connection therewith, may also
receive a patent for his mill
site. as provided in this sect
ion.” .
These provisions are carried
into the Territorial mining act
with additional provisions con
cerning the manner of actually
marking the mill site location
upon the ground and filing a
location notice in the proper
recording office.
It will be seen that the Fede
ral ac t provides for two con
tingencies under which a mill
site may be taken up, first, by
one who is the owner of a lode
who needs additional ground
for the proper working of the
lode, such as for the purpose
of erecting warehouses or oth
er reduction works, and sec
ond, one who desires ground
upon which to erect a mill re
duction works, although he is
not the owner of a lode claim.
The law provides that the mill
site must not be contiguous to,

i which means i?m?t not adjoin
j 'ho lode claim. The purpose
I of this provision is to prevent j
ho taking up of valuable rain j
oral lands under mill site lo j
■ati. no. However, the Lai;.' I
Office upon application fo |
patent, has he’d that a mil: !
ite may adjoin’ one of the side i
lines of lode location; the arg
ument presented to support
i t ii a location is that ordi
| narily a lode is so located that
rv will not cross the side lines j
of a location made upon it but
if if i xtends beyond the ground j
•ovei ed by the location, it ]
will depart therefrom through :
* the end lines. The mere pres- j
r.ce of mineral within the |
, boundaries of the mill site j
, however, is not sufficient, to
j prevent the ground from being
! taken up as a mill site. In or
der to come within the pro- i
hibition of the law*, •mineral j
must be present in such quanti-1
ies as will reasonably lead to •
I the belief that development j
1 thereof will result in the dis
| covery of ore in paying quanti- ’
ies. Of course, if the pres
mce of valuable mineral is
discovered within the mill!
j site location a fter patent has
been issued therefor, the on-j
i tire 1; act, with all minerals 1
herein contained, become the
j exclusive property of the mill
; site claimant, but not so if the
presence of the mineral, under
1 such conditions as heretofore !
stated, was known at the time I
i the application for patent was j
! made.
The law provides that not
more than five acres of land
may bo taken up under a mill
site location. The boundaries
must be marked so that the
■amo may be readily traced,
and all corners and angles
, vm. ’ be designated by sub
stantial stake-- and marked so
that the location may be irient
i tied. A notice of location must
be posted containing the fol

A copy of this notice of lo

of the recorder in whose dis
trict the mill site is located.
While the Federal law re
quires no labor to be done or
improvements to be m’de u*^
on a mill site location, the
Territorial act provides that
twenty-five dollars worth o:
labor shall be performed or
improvements made upon each
mill site during each year the
same is held, except durln x th :
year of location. This provision
applies to all mill sites irre
spective as to when they wore
located.
Under the Territorial act it
is required to file an af "davit
of labor setting forth 1hnt the
annual assessment wort ha3
been performed upon the mill
site location. This affidavit is
substantially the same as pro
vided for lode locations. The
mill site claimant instead of
performing the labor or mak
ing the improvement'. may
pay to the Territo ial Tren ■
urer the sum of twenty-'ive
dollars and have hn re n>ip*.
therefor recorded instead of
the affidavit of labor lie may
also have his mill "it surveyed
by a United State' TUne-ai
Surveyor and his field notes
and vouchers showing the cost
of such survey, pronerl v made
out by the surveyor, rn v lv
put in the form of an af ”d vit
and recorded instead oe per
forming twenty-five lavs
worth of labor or mr.Wh r im
provements worth that ament.
All these provisions are new
and whether or not they can
be enforced is sti l onen to
question. They may l e convid
erd as entailing upon locate-u
burdens in addition to ihose
imposed by the Federal stat
ute. The only requirement
under the federal law, at we
have seen, is that the ground
taken up as a mill site must
not adjoin the end of a lode
location and it must be non
mineral in character. To this
may be added that after a
mill site location has been ta’: -
en up, some beneficial use
must be made of it: it can 101
be held for speculative pur
poses. The onerous provision*
required under the Territo ial
act are not found in any of
the Mining States. Whc her ov
not the courts will, uphold
them is doubtful. We are in
clined to believe they will.
Courts have held that a mill
site is a mining claim and i:
such holding is correct it may
may easily be claimed that
under that portion of the Fed
eral mining law giving local
legislatures and miners the
power to make additional
provisions concerning mining
claims not in conflict with Fed
eral law, the legislature had
the power to make extra pro
visions found in our law con
cerning mill site location?.
