IMPORTANT TO MINERS.
Validity OF Mining Locations Made
ON Legal Holidays.

Recently decision of the Secretary
OF the Interior, relating to mining To-
cations made ON legal holidays, was
alluded 10 in nearly all the newspa-
pers OF the coast, and The general i'm
preston was that the relocation of a
mining claim on the lst day of Janu-
airy was declared illegal. Now the
Salt Lake Chronicle corrects this i'm
pression and has the following ON the
subject:
1.-THE decision In question was
made by Hon. II. NJ. Teller, Secretary
OF The Interior and is dated on Dec
enber 20, 1884. II relates only TO
claims made in Colorado under the
statutes OF that State, which makes
certain days, among which IL Janu.
airy lst, holidays, and provides that
In case any OF said holidays fall upon
Sunday, then the Monday following
shall be considered as the holiday.
In tho case upon which the decision
was given 1t appears that the parties
originally owning the mine We're at
work upon 1t on the 3lst day of
December(S Saturday. 1881. That they
left their tools ON the premises on
that night. intending to resume work
on the next Monday morning, Janu-
airy I'd, which under the Colorado
statute, was legal holiday. That
possess on was obtained by the relo.
Gators after midnight, December 81,
1881, and prior To 1880 A. NJ, January
2, 1882, on Sunday, or on Monday.
which was a holiday-by stealth, in
the temporary absence of the appli
cants, and in violation OF the laws of
Colorado, and the owners of the mine
were prevented from continuing their
work by the threatening language
and conduct of the relocat0rs, also in
the violation of the Statutes. 1T was
therefore possession illegally ac-
quired, and did not give the protest
ant The right 10 relocate the premises. I"
Thus IL will be perceived that the
derision only applies to locations in
Colorado under the statutes of that
State, and to the peculiar circum-
stances OF peculiar claim. That par
ties rightfully owning n mine shall
have the privilege OF absenting them
selves over a Sunday or n legal holt
day, while engaged in doing assess
ment work, IL about the sum and
substance OF the decision, and that is
all there is OF it.

The disease known as blackieg at
tackled the young cattle on the ranch
of Scott q Co. at Halleck, ses eral
weeks ago, says the Elko Independ-
ent, and they began dying OFT at the
rate of about one day; the animals
dropping OF very quickly after ex-
hiblting The first symptoms of the
disease. Milt Polk, who has charge
of the ranch, Immediately took steps
for preventing the further spread Of
the malady by the adoption OF the
following remedy: Equal paris of
sulphur, saltpeter, garlic, assafetida
and lard, beaten up together and
made into a paste, which being made
into balls about the size OF q large
buck shot, one was introduced in the
side OF the neck of each animal by
making small opening in the hide
and loosening it downward from the
incision, thus forming small pocket
into which the ball Of paste was thrust.
The animals were then turned loose
upon the same ground from which
they bad been gathered and treated
In every respect as they had been be-
fore. II is now over two weeks since
the treatment. and not a single case
Of the disease has developed. The
test was thorough and certainly
seems to have been a perfect success.
