Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Mines and Minerals Since the publication, in the year 1867, of the Third Edition of the Author's Treatise, mining industry has, upon the whole, and notwithstanding occasional variations, enormously increased e and the law, also, of mines and minerals, from having been more frequently before the Courts and from other causes, has received a corresponding development. The principles of that law are now more definitely settled, and its details are much more accurately ascertained or ascertainable, than they or either of them were at the time the Author wrote. In the present or Fourth Edition, the Editor has endeavoured, while founding upon the old edition, to express these more definite principles, and to arrange these more accurately ascertainable details of mining law in a form at once convenient and logical, embodying them in the Author's Treatise in their appropriate places, and generally carrying forward that Treatise to the stage at which mining law has now arrived. For the better attainment of the objects above ex pressed, the Editor, although averse to taking liberties with either the method or the matter of his Author, has found himself compelled to take, and has also taken in fact, very considerable liberties with both. He has greatly altered the method; and he has greatly altered the matter also. Firstly, as regards alterations of method, - the Editor has made the following alterations, viz.

Excerpt from Handbook on American Mining Law The title American Mining Law has been chosen because of its simplicity and because the law chiefly dealt with, while it affects only a comparatively small part of the United States and its possessions, is so national in its character as deservedly to be spoken of by all writers on the subject as American Mining Law. In the notes the cases which for one reason or another are sug gested as best for students to consult are printed in large type. As is true of other Hornbooks, an exhaustive citation of cases has not been attempted, but the endeavor has been to give a comprehensive, well proportioned, and up-to-date treatment of the subject.

Excerpt from Accidents in Mines: Their Causes and Prevention I have endeavoured, by collecting all the informa tion into one volume, to bring before the public, as seen by those who are engaged professionally as mining engineers, the subject of the number of lives lost in working coal, and the sources of accident which might be prevented. It may be fairly asked (1) whether the principles of Davy's lamp hold good when the atmospheric pressure is as great as it is in the deep coal mines; and (2) what effect the vibrating waves of sound may have on the flame within the lamp when the Mp is surrounded by an explosive mixture of gas.
