the word, and Yields en- immense infu-
ence. He is radical Republican, but
he has announced his determination, if
Hancock was nominated, to raise a
Hancock flag on top of his mills, where
it should wave throughout the cam

A Location EIend.

There is not Q mining community on this coast that is not cursed by the location fiend. That the black mailer is bad there is no denying :; but for tricks that are mean and for tricks that are contemptible the loce- tion fiend is boss. Like the coyote, you cannot scare him of. With a copy of Copps' handbook and a tape line he roams abroad, and woe be- tide the old stakes that may come in his way. You might build another Chinese wall around the 1900 feet of ground upon which you had been to work for years and congratulating yourself upon having a clear title if not good claim. Try to sell your claim aad you will find that the fiend : has been around and swu5g the northwest corner of 'Whangdoodle' through your Chinese wall, and can bring ten good citizens to swear they had seen him put up the location notice of the ''Whangdocdle'' long before you were born. It never an noys the location fiend to be cramped for room. He has been known 10 climb up one side of pine tree and down the other with tape-line be- tween his teeth, in oruer to get all of the 300 feet on each side of his ledge that the law allows him.
 The location fend never works Q claim. He is too busy for that. He is the first at stampede and the last 10 leave. You can not get up in the night and put up monument on a new discovery without finding the fend hard at work stalking of exten- sions. Lynching cannot squeIch him he was never kDown to die; but we would suggest as the most effec- tual remedy for his 1termination, the enforcement of the stumpage law. Compel the fend to pay slumT- age for the timber he has destroyed in making stakes On the public do main, and pine board would soon mark the last resting place of the remains of him who could not live long enough to deed away half of his mining @ elaims.-Salt Lake Tribune.
