MINING PARTNERS 1ND RE-
LOCATIONS.

The acting commissioner OF the
general land Office has decided QUE
ton which IS Of very great importance
10 miners. He says In effect, that
where lode mining claim has been
located by several persons jointly,
and thereafter the required expendi-
lures have not been made the claim
may be relocated by any one Of the
former claimants to the exclusion Of
co-claimants.
Now this is 4 ruling which has a
very important effect. 1t not only
gives an honest miner a chance to rid
himself Of prohtless associates, who
won't corfe up with their share, but
it also gives chances for dishonest
miners to get rid OF partners in ven
lures likely to prove profitable, if said
dishonest men are in charge of the
property. People who have invested
in claims with others, may as vel!
look personally, 10 see if the work is
being done,
The question on which this ruling
was made came up in the following
| form:
| "Can one Of the locators of min
ing claim, upon which the necessary
amount Of expenditures for a given
year have not been made, relocate the
same as abandoned property, in ms
own name and for himself only -
! The acting commissioner answers ::
Section 7324, Revised Statutes,
after prescribing the value of labor tc
be performed, or Improvements to be
made annually upon each claim. in
order to protest the possessofy right
Of locators, provides that, upon a
failuret TO comply with these conditions
the claim or nine upon which such
! failure occurred shall be open to re-
location in the same manner as if no
location of the same had ever been
made; provided that the original loca-
tors Or their heirs, assigns or legal
representatives, have not resumed
work upon the claim after failure and
before such location.
From this it will be seen that the
only question to be considered in the
case stated is whether one of 4 number
Of original locators, whose claim has
been abandoned, would stand upon
the same footing as stranger to the
first location, who, by the provisions
above recited. is expressly authorized
to relocate such abandoned claim.
'1t IS clear that one Of a number ol
locators Of certain claim can, cor
currently with such JOINT location,
: cate separate claim, independently

OF his co-laborers; and as an abandon:
ed claim reverts 70 the mass of unap-
propriated public lands, and becomes
subject to a new appropriation, in
the same manner as ii no location had
been made l can see no valid objees
ton to Eew adverse location of such
claim by any che OF the former loca:
tors"
At the same time the commissioned
decides that labor performed, or in:
provcmcnts made by an original loca.
tor, cannot be claimed by HIM as a
part OF the expenditures necessary to
ent,tle him toa patent for relocation.
