LOCATION OF MINING CLAIMS.
An Old Ruling Repeated by she
Land Commissioner.

All Old RulinE Repeated by the
Land Commissioner.
Tit principle is we'll settled that miners
cannot make local laws which conflict with
the United States mining law. They are
simply permitted to make such rules and
regulations for themselves as do not con-
travene the Congressional enactment on
the subject Of the occupation and pur-
chase Of mineral lands. Practically speak
ing, the local laws Of the miners were
mainly %abrogated by the passage Of the
United States statute. Answering the in
curry Of a correspondent on this subject
me COMMISSIONS of the General Land
othce recently said
In reply to your communication, I
nave to state that the United States Min
ing a provide that the locator Of a lode
or mining claim must make the annual
expenditure necessary for the maintenance
oI the possessory title at any time within
one year from Jan. / next succeeding the
Gate OF location, and the miners of a min
ing district have no authority to make any
rules conflicting with this provision Of
law. II the mining laws Of your district
require that $50 shall be expended within
W Gays after location, such provision Ia
Wholly without force. Suppose q location
10 nave been made July |, 1880, the 500
TMut.n OF expenditure is required by the
United States law to be made between
Jan. l, 1881, and Dec. 81, 1881 ; and the
expenditures made prior to this period
namely, within 60 days after location
would not be in conformity with the pro-
visions OF said law"

ALBION.RICHMOND
Yesterdays Proceedings in the SUI.
preme Court at Carson.

ESPECIAL TO THE sENrINEL.1
CARSON, Nov. 3.-The Albion-Richmond
case, o appeal from the Eureka District
Court, came up for argument this morn
ing. The Albion is represented by Sem
ator Stewart and W. s. Wood Of San Fran
cisco and Geo. w. Baker of Eureka. Hon.
Thos. Wren and Mr.. Cheney appear for
the Richmond, though the latter will take
no part in the argument. The case is one
in which deep interest is felt all through
this part Of the State.
The opening statement for the Albion
was presented by W. s. Woodin a clear and
able speech. He contended that the de-
cree of the Court below should have been
for the Albion. and if the legal title was
in the Richmond it was only as a Trustee.
He demonstrated very clearly that no valid
title could be acquired by the Richmond
to the Victoria ground, while the
right. Of possession (which carried with
it the right to purchase from the
government to the same ground and the
same portion of the same lode, was being
contested in the Courts, and still unde-
termined as between the st. George loca-
ton on the one hand and the Uncle Sam
on the other, at the time OF the issuance
of the Victoria patent, a junior claim, to
the same party that alleged title in the
St. George; one of the parties to the unde-
termined suit. His argument throughout
was forcible and convincing. and if an out
slider may be permitted to read the faces
of judicial officers, the Bench was in &C.
cord with him. He occupied the attention
of the Court for five hours, his logical de-
auctions from the law appearing to a lay
man to be absolutely unanswerable. He
was followed by Mr.. Wren, who had to give
way for the adjournment at about 4 P. NJ.
Mr.. Wren will resume in the morning. 1t
is now believed that the argument Of the
case will occupy at least three days.

WARD MARKINGS.
The Reflections of q Week as Re

The Reflections OF q Week as Re.
fected in the ssRefex'' of Tuesday.
Tom Sutherland and N. B. Dunton dis
covered a ledge in Cooper District last
week, between Cooper Pass and Steptoe
Greek, ore from which assays $3.50. They
are we'll pleased with the prospect and
work will be commenced at once. 1t ap-
pears that there is q continuous mineral
belt running through Nevada, Cooper and
Taylor Districts, a distance Of fully 15
miles.
The ore now being extracted from the
Monitor mine at Taylor is reported to be
much richer than any yet put through the
mill. Two men one day last week took
out 50. 900 worth of ore. This is a stand
off for that 81 900 worth of ore taken out
in the Eureka Tunnel one day last week
by one miner, that the SENTINEL wanted to
see matched elsewhere.
The United States Government only
wants S65. 900 out Of George Ellison, 30 it
is reported around town, and has notified
him to that effect. We believe that Eli
son was one Of dilmer d S~alisbury's
bondsmen. George cannot respond i'm
mediately, for he has S85, 900 to get. He
can raise 81 ,000, 900 quite as easy as
SG5, 000.
One bar of bullion from the Monitor
Mill, valued at S1,4Os IS, WAS shipped by
express Wednesday, and another, from
| the same mill, valued at SLABS SO, was
shipped Friday. Total shipment for the
week, s. ASST rs. Another bar will arrive
to-day.
Two and a half tons Of ore from the
| June mine at Taylor were recently shipped
| to Eureka for reduction, which went 2SS
| ounces to the ton, as shown by the returns
received last Friday.
Thomas McMasters, says the Silver Rect
Miner, recently received the appointment
Of superintendent Of the Contention MIL
near Tombstone, Arizona.
Robert Briggs last Saturday purchased
Essau p. Viewers interest in the Breach
Loader mine In Taylor Mining District,

"Hair Trigger John"

John Gibbons, better known in this
country as Hair Trigger John, says the
Silver City New Mexico) Chronicle, was
among the victims of the recent Indian
outbreak at San Carlos. He was killed at
Point of Mountains, and after a brave de-
tense fell with his face to the foe. John
Gibbons came to this country in 1862 with
the column from California, and was we'll
known in Southern New Mexico. He was
q famous hunter and trapper, and as a
story.teller stood second only to Davy
Crockett. His adventures in love and
courtship in Arkansas, and his numerous
hair breadth escapes in the chase were the
source of much amusement, and these ad-
ventures often found their way to the
presa. The writer often enjoyed Gibbons
laughable stories, told in his inimitable
way around the camp fire, and more than
once have we sent them afoat through the
papers. Hair Trigger was the embodi-
ment of fun and good nature was the
friend Of the newspapers, and is justly en-.
titled to a kindly notice, and we know OF
no one better qualified to perform this
putty than his old friend Judge Hackney,
Of the Arizona Silver Belt. Hair Trigger
was born on Frog Bayou. Arkansas, and
was about IS years Of age.
