Sherman for silver Repeal.

Prompted by an intimation from
ex-Secretary Bayard that but TOR
the disposition among republican
Senators to embarrass Cleveland
the silver repeal bill could be passed
in The Senate, Senator Sherman
prepared the following statement
for the Philadelphia Ledger:
ut is az we'll knovn as anythil 6
can be that large majority of the
republican Senators, including my
self are decidedly in favor of the re-
peal or suspension Of the purchase
Of silver bullion, and that they are
ready to day, tomorrow or at any
moment to vote for such repeal.
It is equally we'll known that not
more than one-fourth or one-fifth
Of the democratic Senators favor
such repeal, and that they will re-
sort to extreme measures to prevent
it. They have openly pronounced
for the free coinage Of silver or the
continuance of the existing law.
The pretense made that republican
Senator's would sacrifice public in
terests' for mere political scheme
is without foundation and | feel
like denouncing it.
If the democratic party will
furnish a contingent Of ten Sena-
tors in support of the repeal of the
Sherman act of 1890 it will pass
the Senate within ten days. AS for
Bayard, he stands where he has al
ways stood on financial questions,
substantially right, but acting with
a party wrong on such questions.
"The opinion expressed by Mr..
Bayard in the Ledger is not con-
Cured in by more than six demo-
Gratis, but it is to be hoped that he
will join in suspending the pur-
chase of silver bullion. Permit me
to say, in conclusion, that the dem
ocratic party, as now reprepresent-
ed in the Senate, is and has been
for free coinage Of silver. | hope
the Eastern democracy and Mr..
Cleveland may have some influence
in changing their opinions.

"Old Alturas'' Bonds.

The suit against Alturas, Logan,
Gilmore and Bingham copntiee ~
the holders Of the old Altnras
county bonds, which, az is specif-
cally stated in the contract, are a
continuous liability against all the
counties named or the territory en-
braced within the limits of old Al
turas, is heaping an additional bur-
den upon the taxpayers OF such
territory and should be checked by
some means at the earliest posi-
BILE day. There is no dispute over
the nature and extent of the obliga-
ton - affecting the counties named
and Why should there be any disa-
green,ent over the methods to be
adopted to finally adjust and dis.
pose of this matter7 The commits
eioners of the respective counties
have thus far been unable to unite
upon any plan, although the rela-
tive liability Of the several counties
is plainly and distinctly Get forth
in both the funding acts of 1883
and 1887 and the bond contracts
Of the several Issues. We think
there remains but one practicable
course to pursue and that is the
enactment of a law, by the present
legislature, making constitutional
and equitable superintendent of the
bonded debt. The day when this
is accomplished will, no doubt, be
hailed with extreme satisfaction by
the great majority Of all the tax
payers in the territory inyolved.

One Location to One Discovery

Secretary Noble recently made an
interesting decision, Gays the Min
ing and Scientific Press, in which
he Cancelled the Patent Of J. F.
Bigelow for the Poplar Greek Con-
solida,ed quartz mine in Marysville
district, and comprising the Pine
nut and Gorilla locations, both
made on the same day in 1883 and
afterwnrd purchased by Bigelow.
The original discoveries and loca-
tors were D. NJ. Bell and Joseph
Rraden, who, in their location no.
tees, failed TO recite that they had
discovered q vein or lode. They
took up two full claims and started
work on the division line Of the
two claims.
Secretary Noble says that good
faith is required of those who locate
lands for mineral and make entry
thereof, and no valid location can
be made unless there has been an
actual discovery. The law contem-
plates that the discoverer shall have
the right to locate his Claim to the
exclusion of all others, and if the
discovery is made by three parties.
but one location can be made by
them, as the FIRST is the only single
discovery.
mo man being RATIONAL says
the secretary, would discover q
vein or load und 30 describe the
location a. to make one Of the
end lines run through the center
Of the discovery shaft, thus leaving
territory not located in which it was
demonstrated that ore existed, and
which might have been included in
the description. In this case it il
decided that it was one discovery
made by two men and only entitled
them to make one location.
1T the law could be 50 construed
as to allow two locations in case
like this" concludes Mr.. Noble, I'll
would also have to be held that one
discovery would entitle the discov.
erers to make four locations, placing
a one-fourth discovery to the credit
Of each, and the law is not suscept.
IDLE Of any such construction. A
discovery is . whole, and may not
bs divided aud parcslsd ont among
! several discoverers,"
