ALIENS.

A foreigner may make mining To-
cation and dispose of it, provided he
becomes citizen before disposing of
the mine. Proof that the party was
not a citizen before disposing of his
claim'must be aff1rmatively shown.
Locators and intermediate owners,
other than applicants, will not be
presumed aliens, in the absence of
allegation or objection prior to the

right dates back to his purchase, and
he may thereupon secure an United
States patent for his claim.

MnI Arkansas Gain ?

Arkansas in 1880 had a population oi S02, 525. he new census 1t is estimated will show a population of 1,043, 900. Un- der the apportionment of the 1880 cen sus the State was given five Congress- men. If the new apportionmentis made according to the same ratio as in 1880 tone Congressman for 175, 900 people, Arkansas will probably gain one mem- ber; but if it is increased to one Con gressman for 200 900 people, the State will be given it's present number.
