CHICAGO, May 31.-Ihe Arthur managers are try
ing hard to deude Northern delegates into the be-
lief that with Arthur ms a candidate the electoral
vote of Virginia will be safe for the Republican
ticket while with Blaine a candidate the reverse
would happen. The real truth is that the prospect
Of carrying Virginia with any candidate Is not
promising and with Blaine a candidate 1t would
be better than with Arthur. But there is
another Northern State which votes III
October in which with Blaine as
q candidate the Republicans would be almost GER
tain to win. The West Virginia delegates who
have arrived declare that the nomination of Blaine
will arouse such enthusiasm their state that not
only will its electoral vote be Republican for the
first time in twelve years but an October victory
for the Republicans will vastly contribute to their
success in other States month later.
A West Virginia Republican today said " 1t
does seem 80 me that the six electoral votes OF West
Virginia in the hand would be worth more To the
Republican party than the twelve electoral yoteSoi
Virginia in the bush" The West Virginia situa-
ton has begun to attract general attention, and
when all the delegates are on the gr,und they VIII

good reason in several OF the southwestern dcega-
lions arc probably IN part attributable To that
cause. In Texas also the Blaine leaders now feel

expect 70 make still further gains In South Caro-

Both parties agree that the owner OF
mining right in lode or vein can not
follow course of the vein beyond the
end-lines of his location extended per
pendicularly downward; but that he
may follow the dip to An indefinite dis
tance outside of his sidelines. This is
undoubtedly the general rule OF miners
law, and the construction of the act of
congress. The Language Of the act of
lS66 IA Stat. 2jl in relation to a vein
or lode is, that no location hereafter
made shall exceed two hundred feet in
length along the vein for each locator,

right to follow such vein to any depth,
with all it dips, variations, and angles

the same as fixed by the local rules
etc The act Of 1872 is more explicit in
its terms but the intent is undoubtedly
the same as it respects end-lines and
side lines and the right to follow the
dip outside Of the latter. We think that
rhe intent Of both statutes is, that min
ing locations on lodes or veins shall be
made thereon lengthwise, in the general
direction of such veins or lodes on the
surface Of the earth where they are di>-
coverable and that the end-lines are to
cross the lode and extend perpendi-
cularly downward and to be continued
in their own direction either way ilori-
zantally; and that the right to follow
the dip outside Of the side lines is based
on the hypothesis that the direction of
these lines corresponds substantially
with the course Of the lode or vein at it's
apex on or near the surface. 1t was not
the intent Of the law to allow person
to make his location crosswise Of vein
so that the sidelines shall cross it and
thereby give him the right to follow the
strike Of the vein outside of his side.
lines. That would subvert the whole
system sought sought to be established
by the law. If he does locate his claim
in that way, his rights must be subor-
dinated to the rights Of those who have
properly located on the lode. Their
right to follow the dip outside of their
side-lines cannot be interfered with by
him. His right to the lode only ex

Mines or Prospects.

Much stress is laid upon the fact that
very little developing work has been
performed upon many Of the tin loca-
tions of Pennington county from which
good samples have been taken. 1t is
very broadly intimated in some in
stances that 4 number Of these mines
have been sailed" 1t may be true that
there are prospectors for tin as we'll as
prospectors for other minerals who
strive to make a reputation for their
locations by Sailing but if instances
Of such work have come to light in the
tin district they have been rare The
fact remains that there are many loca.
cations on which good ore is found-ore
equal in value to that of the Eta mine
This has been SO thoroughly demon
strated that il is unnecessary TO dwell
upon it. n is not to he presumed that
every tin prospect will prove on deve-
opment paying mine, but it is reason
able to believe from indications that
there will be many valuable Tin mines
developed in the county. There are
many locations that show surface ore
equally as good as that Of the Eta, and
there are several that that show every
indication of having large bodies Of the
ore. With such prospects" there is
every encouragement for the locators to
pursue work Of development. and much

erly opened. 1t will be found that the
men who most often make the assertion
that the permancnce of the tin mines il
not yet proven are men who are anxi-
GUS to secure every location yielding tin
agents of capital interested not especi
ally for the benefit of the country, but
for the benefit oftheir employers. That
the developments made upon the Eta
mine have been of most favorable
character may be set down as a fact
without a visit to the workings. The
action Of the company to which it was
bonded, in paying the purchase money
considerable time before the expira-
ton Of the bond will be accepted rs
satisfactory evidence on that point. The
same company has since obtained con-
tro of large number of locations show
ing tin ore, and has even now a force Of
men at work upon several Of them In
the meantime we receive news Of the
stalking OF new claims and the finding of
good tin ore in places where its exist
ence was short time ago not suspected.
There is added every day at least "sur-
face indication" that the tin bearing
district is extensive, and there is lust as
much encouragement for prospector to
go down" on good tin prospect as on
a gold quartz vein. If the ore body is
sufficiently extensive and carries sutfi
cient tin to rly it will be worth money,
and If it is of no value the sooner the
prospector learns the fact the better for
him. The old advice to the miner.
Go down on it," is just as applicable to
tin as to god es.-Black Hills World.
