The New SchoolLaw

A law recently enacted by the legis
lature makes some radical changes in
the present school laws. We give be-
low, in condensed form, the important
features of the new law:

also two examiners, one for one year
and one for two years, commencing the
second Monday of October next. The
county commissioner and the two school
examiners then appointed shall con-
stitute board Of school examiners. At
its annual meeting every year thereafter
the board of supervisors shall appoint
one school examiner for the term of two
years. The county commissioner must
give bond in the sumo OF $1,000 for
the faithful discharge of his duties.
Section provides for the election of
county commissioner at the April
election in 1893 and every two years
thereafter.

ed or elected to the Office Of county
commissioner. In Baraga county q

| Caldwell will return thanks,on Thanks
giving day, for artesian water. Their
we'll is now down 225 feet and water in
small quantity is flowing over the top,
but the bottom of it is still in quick
sand, and the casing has become bent
so that further progress is stopped. The
we'll is not useful, but the fact that wa
ter was forced up, even in the quick
sand, has demonstrated that there is a
pressure of water there suffi cient to war
rant further work being done and a con-
tract has been let for another well to be
put down in the early spring.
Caldwell will give thanks for the as
surance that the College of Idaho, To-
Gated there, is an assured enterprise and
will induce the most desirable class of
people to make their homes there.
When the thriving and rustling town of
Caldwell is the county seat of Canyon
County next year, we wish them to in
vite the NUGGET over to Thanksgiving
dinner We like town with the get
up-and-get-ther that Caldwell has.
Now for an invitation to Christmas
dinner! Nampa people will discuss
their Thanksgiving turkeys while Civ
ing thanks for their splendid prosperity.
The people have in four years time
turned sagebrush desert into one the
finest and most thrifty and bnsting
towns in Idaho. Men who foreaaw the
opportunities, with infinite patience and
perseverance, laid out a townsite among
the cayotes and jack rabbits, thirty
miles from water, forced the railroad
company TO remove station to that
point; induced capitalists to build
branch railway to Boise City; struggled
three years for water supply and got
it; built fine stores and fine hotels;
cleared off thousands of acres of sage
brush and converted the fertile lands
into splendid ranches and coming frnit
farms have built churches and school
houses and made thriving young city.
They are proud of what they lave ac-
complished, but their ambition does not
end here. They, with their canals, have
splendid water powers, and until they
are utilized to drive the machinery of
coming mills and factories; until a rail-
way is constructed through Nampa from
the wonderful timber regions on the
north, to the great mining districts Of
Owyhee, the Nampa people will know
no rest.

Mexico at the Worlds Fair.

Mexico has made Worlds Fair ap-
preparation of $50, 600. This is only pre-
liminary. however, and it is fully ex-
ed that the whole of the $750,000,
which were asked for,and perhaps more
will be voted. We shall hope to see
Mexico most prominently represented
in the Chicago Fair. No quarter of the
earth can make an exhibit there that
ought to be of greater attraction and in
terest and value to our own people than
that which Mexico might readily pro-
vide and might be easily melted to do
if properly Influenced and solicited.
Every effort should be made to throw
down every existing barrier TO unre-
stricted commercial relations with our
immediate Southern neighbor with
whom there should be no commercial
frontier, with its double line of custom
houses and vexatious regulations speci-
ally framed to check or embarrass an
Interstate trade which really should be
placed on the same footing in all re-
spects as is the trade of Texas with Mas
sachusetts, or California with New
York. Financial and Mining Record.

MINING NUGGETS.
COW CREEK ONCE MORE.

A month ago the NUGGET stated that
the pros. ,ectors in the Cow creek district
bad suspended work there until spring.
That was the way it looked at that time,
but some of them, taking advantage of
the continued good weather, have been
working since. Isaac Hale and William
Betcher have continued work on claim
belonging to them and w. s. Seaton,
with results which now make them hap.
py. Mr.. Hale came into the NUGGET Of
fee on Saturday with sack of large
chunks of quartz which were very rich
in silver. He said that he had taken
them from shallow open cut on their
claim and that he had just had two as
says made, one that went over 1000
ounces aud the other double as much.
They do not yet know The width of the
ledge, but the rich pay streak is about
two feet.

Farmers on the Pacific coast are in
terested in discussion Of the useless
ness or usefulness of a pigs tail. One
side argues that it is as useless as the
letter in pneumonia. The other side
asserts that the tai indicates the ex-
act physical condition of the animal.
If it hangs loose, it indicates that the
animal is not in condition and that it's
feed should be changed. If it is coil
ed tightly, it indicates contentment and
good health. Salt Lake Tribune.
There is good deal more sense in
this discussion, than in many of the
farmers Alliance notions. 1t is better
politics than some they have originated.
The DeLamar nugget. [volume] (DeLamar, Idaho) 1891-1900, 1891-11-23

Much diversion of opinion prevails
regarding what constitutes the repre-
sentalion of mining claim. Some say
that ten feet of work, in either shaft
or a tunnel, will meet the requirements.
The law states that 500 must be
spent in labor and Improvements on
each mining claim, and is silent as to
the number of feet of tunnelling or
sinking necessary. No definite dis
tance can be stated from the fact that
the hardness of rock varies greatly in
different formations. The local custom
in many camps allows a man on short
contracts, who furnishes his own pow
der, tools and repairs, So per day.
Many owners perform only twenty
days work as representation. Others
more than comply with the law by put
ing in from twenty-five to thirty days
on each claim. 1t would be much bet
ter for the owners and the districts if
at least thirty days work were put on
each claim, not under process of devel-
opment, besides all questions as to nee
essary representation would be settled.

The Denver Mining Congress pro-
nounced in favor of free and unlimited
coinage in no uncertain voice, the vote
in its favor standing 4Sl to s. The world
moves. The men who have injured this
country by forcing down the price of its
products, must be relegaled to the past
by the coming session of Congress or the
people will have a say at them one year
from now, regardless of past party affili-
ations, which will force them into re-
tirement. A free coinage bill will pass
the next Congress and the President will
approve it, or woe to him and bis party
in the future.

Rapid District.

Rapid Mining District is situated on
the right or north prong of Rapid river
sometimes called Deep creek about
ten miles northeast of Helena, Seven
Devils. The irst locations were made
three years ago by Messrs. Kootlemann,
HIldenhrand and Snt,on, and since that
time they have made altogether twenty
one locations. A number of other pros
pectors have gone in and made locations
which show up splendidly so far as de-
veloped. The ore all lies in true fssure
veins and assays over 5000 to the ton in
gold, with considerable silver. Picked
samples have assayed as high as $500
to the ton, and the great beauty of it is,
the immensity of the ledges. Shafts
have been sunk to the depth of fifty
feet showing good ore all the way down
in veins varying from four to six feet
wide. A comparatively good pack trail
leads to the camp and an excellent wa
gon road can be built with very little
expense. The prospects for the erect
ion of stamp mill in the camp next
season are very promising. g.-Salubria
