Improvements on government land, Assessment of land after final proof made.

The STATE OF OREGON “Code” states:

The assessor must assess all improvements on lands, the fee of which is still vested in the United States, as personal property until the settler thereon or claimant thereof has made final proof.

Question does the annual report most miners make are read by the County Assessor?

 

[Assembler]

To help answer the question the word or phrase "Proof" is only defined at only one location within "The State of Oregon" first codified in 1862.
Comparative legislation:
California code Civ. Proc., sec. 1823, 1824.
Montana R.C. 1935, sec. 10488, 10489.

Anyone care to chime in?

It would appear that "claimant thereof has made final proof" is a important factor.

A affidavit must be a important factor here.
