Wright, chairman of the com- | mittee. Mr. Wright dealt first with the experi- ences of those who were sceking the pas- sage of a bill through Congress providing for a commission to classify the lands of the State, so that no more mineral lands would be patented to the rallroad or to gthers, under the gi land. His report of the work of the com- | mittee was one of fallures, for he sald | that no matter which way the supporters of the bill turned they found some tech- | nicality or some obiection that put off its | passage until too late. In concluding this | part of his report Mr. Wright recom- | mended that “the assoclation should con- tinue its support of the mineral lands bill | now before Congress, and to this end a | strong mineral lands committee showtd | be appointed, headed by some gentlegan | able to give a large proportion of” his time to the accomplishment of the ass ciation’s purposes. Mr. Wright then took up the ofl jndu and particularly the fight betwee ‘serippers” and the locators. The dif- ficulty of the ofl locator he sald was that it is sometimes several weeks, and even months, before he can tell whether or not | he is on an ofl producing claim, and in the meantime the pper can come in and s % land under his serip, which ¢ m to agricultural land only. rippers would select un- appre lands where the presence of mine: n apparent, said Mr. : would question his right r would his right eral afterwarc discovered be que But in very many Instances th has selected land within the well- limits of s, lands known to him to a patent | contain v, ties of of > haz even gone fi and sele; 1d upon Whiech 1 been erec 1 upon | | which we being k.
