JAPAN'S MINING LAWS.
Mining, now one of the most important industries in Japan, was in the first years of Meiji still in a very backward state. The Japanese Government, being anxious to promote the industry, itself. owned several mines which were worked according to the most recent European methods; but they mostly proved financial failures, and to avoid further losses, a majority of them were after a time sold to private persons, in whose hands they prospered and brought about the general development of our nin. ing industry.
The old Mining Regulations of 1890 are superseded by the Mining Law which will come into operation in July of the current year. The Minister of Agriculture is om powered by this law to' permit, cancel or suspend the right of mining, normanent og trial. For purposes of administration of the mining industry, the whole country is divided into five districts, each under mnino inspection office. The area of a mining get must be, for collieries, not less than 50,000 trubo (about 41 acres) and for other mines, not less than 5,000 tsubo (about 4 acres,) nor exceed for mines of all kinds 600,000 tsubo (about 490 acres). Japanese subjects and juridical persons constituted conformably to the laws of the Empire may acquiro mining rights, Min- ing rights are classed as real rights to which the provisions relative to immovable pro- perty are correspondingly applicable; and they are indivisible. They cannot be made subjects of rights other than those of suc- cession, transfer, measures taken in con- sequence of non-payment of national taxes, and execution; but the right of permanent mining may become the object of a mort- gage. The duration of a right of trial min- ing is two years from the date of the registration thereof...
"In connection with this new Mining Law which was enacted in January last the Min- ing Mortgage Law, which enables holders of mining rights to create mining foundations with a view to the mortgage thereof. A mining foundation is formed with the following, which belong in connection with mining to the owner of a mining right:- (1) Mining right; (2) Land and works ;, (3) Superficies and right of use of land; (4) Right of hiring things, to which the letter thereof has given his-consent; (5) Machines, instruments, vehicles, vessels, oxen, horses, and other appurtenances.- Financial and Economical Annual of Japan, 1905.
