in the trial of the Tabor Wilson SUIT
last week Judge Bristol ruled that the
location was defective as made by
Wilson, and so charged the jury, be.
cause it was not tied to any definitely
fixed natural object. 1t was described
as located three miles north of Elliutts
camp, on the southern slope of the
Black Range, about one mile south OF
the North Percha, and on the west side
of Carbonate reek.-Deming Tribune.
1t is undoubtedly true that too great
cart cannot be exercised in the matter
Of locating mineral claims. The pro-
visions of the law should he strictly OBJ
served, 1t is only through the pro-
visions of the law that rights to mining
claims can be obtained, and a loose and
haphazard sort of location, as occurs in
many instances, is simply no location
at all. The law says: "The location
must be distinctly marked on the
ground 50 that its boundaries can be
readily traced. All records of mining
claims hereafter made shall contain the
name or names of the locator, the date
of the location and such a description
by reference to some natural object or
permanent monument as will identify
the claim And while on the subject
of the requirements of the law, anoth-
er word as to the question of when the
labor is to be performed. Section 1924
Of the act of 1879 provides that, ION all
claims located after the tenth day of
May 1872, aud until a patent has been
issued therefor not less than 500 worth
of labor shall be performed, or i'm
provements made, during each year"
January 22d, 1850 Section 1924 was
amended to read as follows: The
period within which the work required
TO be done annually on all unpatented
mineral claims shall commence on the
first day of January sucseedin ny the
date of location of such claim and
this section shall apply to all claims
located since the tenth day of May

CHLORIDE, n. Mex. Dec 14th, 1888.
To THE EDITOR OF THE BLACK
RANGE; noticed a abort article in
your paper Of last week stating that
there was some speculation as to the
prices to be charged by the %concentra-
tor for the treatment of ores, when the
mill was in operation, and a hesitation
on the part of Some miners about 60
ing to work upon their claims for fear
that the prices charged would consume
all the value of the ore, thus leaving
nothing for the property owner. In a
former issue of your paper the state
ment was made that "Mr. Castle had
not come here on a merely benevolent
mission, hut to make money, and that
IN his making it the whole camp would
share in the benefit" 1t is true that |
came here led by the same motive that
brought all of us, viz: to make
money, believing that with the correct
treatment of ores so abundant here a
rich harvest could be gaiuedi at the
same time l trust the idea of making
money has not so gotten possession OF
meithat ! cannot with pleasure see the
benefits Of my success extended TO
Others and all share in the common
good, nor that the idea of making
money rapidly has SO blinded me that l
would seek to appropriate all that is to
be made fOrgetful of the interests of
Others and by such a grasping spirit
thus defeat the object a~Ctuating us all.
1t has been a matter of difficulty in
fixing proper charges for the treat
ment Of ore by the concentration as so
many elements have entered into the
computation, some of which it will be
proper for me to mention. At tho be-
ginning Of the enterprise, when the
matter was first bIoached to me, a
prominent representative of the Range,
10 show how thoroughly interested the
miners were to get such an enterprise
started said to me, that they would be
willing to pay thirty dollars per ton for
The treatment of their OF course, l
knew that very few ores could stand any
such figures but it indicated a willing
LESS on the part Of the property owners
TO do the very best, ever to giving in
all their profits of their ore for a time,
that the awaking of the camp from Its
dead condition might give life to their
properties and make them of market
able value. Again to show the belief OF
the Range in its own resources and its
willingness 10 assist in the necessary
and heavy expenses attending the
erection OF a mill rs we'll as 10 after
wards share in the benefits, a volun-
tary offer was made, a very customary
thing, TO share the burden by payment
OF the freight upon the machinery
from Engle " The mill site.

The Maxwell land grant patent is
liable TO be ripped up. The original
grant comprised 81 900 acres and pat
ent was issued for 100000. The
title it is alleged was obtained through
fraud, and ex-senator Chaffe and
Chillcott are in some way implicated in
the matter. The United States has
filed an amended bill in the United
States Circuit court at Denver in the
matter OF this land grant.

Time.


| Evcrv reader knows that as there are
but 800 degrees in circle, every ID degrees
represent an hour. Whenever, therefore.
we have travelled westwardly ID degrees.
or about thousand miles, we have reached
a point where the time is an hour earlier
than where we started. Consequently, IT
has been a puzzle with railroad companies
10 determine the points from which TO
reckon their time. The Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company's line extends
from Baltimore to st. Louis-nearlya thou
sand miles. Shall they keep Baltimore
time or st. Louis time?
We notice that convention to settle
such questions met in ST. Louis on We'd
nesday and resolved that the following
changes made in standard time go into ell
feet May 18th: Roads east and adjacent to
Washington shall run by 18th meridian, or
eastern time; between these points and
Kansas City they shall run by Goth meri-
dian or central time. or one hour slower
than eastern time; and west Of Kansas City
by l0jth and 12jth meridians, or western
time-two hours and three hours slower
respectively than eastern time.
The easternmost point in llainc Is about
the 9th meridian, New York city about
the 45th. philadelphia about the 18th,
Washington about the 18th, and Richmond
a little west of the last. The westernmost
point in California is about 12A4. So rs
there are not quite 60 degrees to be cover
ed by the four kinds OF time agreed upon
by the convention, il follows that if all the
railroads and the public will adopt the
times agreed upon we shall all have the
same time from elaine to California. For
the difference between any two OF the sew
eral times is an even hour. Thus il at
Richmond it is II O'Clock, we shall always
know that at St. Louis it is II O'Clock, at
Salt Lake City 10 o'clock. and at San Fran
cisco O'clock and so Of course as to the
least fraction of time, 6:55 in Richmond
being $50, 4:jj, and 800 at the several
places named. II would be great salts
faction to everybody to have this scheme
carried out by the railroads and the public
1t will help towards the adoption OF Green
witch as the worlds timc-keeper.

The political caldrOn has been lately
simmering among the Mahoneites, hui
nothing has been done. A movement was
put on foot at March court TO nominate 4
county ticket, but was so much opposed by
the allies (Republicans) that nothing wa,
accomplished. The meeting was adjourned
over to April court, but it is doubtful
whether enough unanimify can be secured
to venture ticket in the field.
AS far rs | can learn the present county
officers will be candidates again, with little
or no opposition. Most OF these are Ell.
Gent and faithful, and change would re-
suit in no good, but rather evil 10 the pub

The winter and spring thus far has been
most unfayorable for farming operations,
and farmers are more backward i'm their
work than ever known. Wheat is looking
badly; there has been no favorable weather
Tor growth, though the stand is good.
The fishing interest on our rivers has
not been a success in catch, though the
prices have ruled unusually high in BaItl-
more, the chief market for this section.
Fish and oysters have become too expcn-
