the courts therein established, to be
there exercised.
The vice of the argument on the other
side is in assuming that the sovereignty
OF the United States ceased to exist: died.
such is not the result. What have we
mere! The crime with which the defend
ant is charged, was an offense against the
sovereignty of the United States. 1t was
not a violation of any mere municipal law
regulating affairs between man and man;
but violation of the law passed by the
united States in the exercise of it's SOW
ereign power to punish crime. This de-
Iendant offended the sovereignty of the
United States by violating its criminal
law, and can it be possible that when the
United States withdraws its right as
sovereign from the territory and from the
territorial courts, that it had no power
to transfer it to its own courts for proper
exercise? The government I apprehend,
is hardly so weak as that
There are two cases where this power
mas been exercised and which 1 submit
sustain my position:
Leitsendorfer VS.. Webb, 20 How, 176;
and The Grapeshot, . Wal, 129.
In both these cases the court held that
there was no doubt that in the transfer
OF sovereignty existing rights of action
could be preserved. In the case first
mentioned criminal and civil cases alike
were preserved. But may I ask, what diff
ference is there. or can there be, between
CIVIL and criminal cases. If anything it
would seem that the right to prosecute
crime stood upon the higher ground of the
two. The law under which this defendant
was indicted was not repealed. The gov
eminent of the state of Utah has passed
from under it simply because of change
of sovereignty; but this change did not
destroy the sovereignty of the United
States. but the right to prosecute certain
pending actions, both civil and criminal,
was transferred to its own courts. I sub
init that the motion should be overruled

point under adYisement

President John Dern of the Mercur
mine. who is just in from Mercur
brings with him the good news that
another big strike has been made in
this bonanza property, which is of a
character to justify the belief that the
mine viii be sending out its stream of
yellow metal for a hundred years TO
come.
On the Matte claim, work has been
in progress for some time in the sink
ing of an incline shaft, and it was an
ticipated that this shaft would uncover
the ore body at a depth of 12S feet, but,
contrary to expectations, the ore zone
was cut at ninety feet, from which as
says were obtained as follows:
No. 1-S12. 20 in gold.
No. 2.-$14.40 in gold.
No. 3.-$l9SO in gold
1t was not long after Mr. Dern's re-
turn before the news of the new strike
spread all over the town, and every
stockholder in the city and all who
were interested in the growth and de-
velopment of this truly wonderful
property, were highly elated over the
discovery.
Forty feet above this incline shaft
there is a tunnel which is in ore, which
proves the existence of a solid body of
pay mineral between the two work
ings, and il is not as yet known to
what depth the ore body extends.
The new hoist recently erected at the
mouth of the incline shaft was started
up yesterday, and now the work of
prospecting will be pushed more rapid
IL ruwfT - h.
the ore bodies will be found to exist
at far greater depth, and also richer
in quality
Yesterday Mr.. Dern ordered new
hoist for the Ruby tunnel, on another
portion of the company's extensive
holdings. This hoist viii be placed at
a point in tbs tunnel 500 feet from its
mouth. This is for the purpose of ia
cilitating the sinking of a VIM, but
the power WIN be generated at the
mouth of the tunnel.
A MILE OF GOLD.
To people who are acquainted only
with vertical veins in mining. the idea
of a blanket vein of ore seems almost
incredible, and they will hardly believe
the statement that the workings on
the Mercur property have demonstrat-
ed that in this mine there IS a mile of
gold, the width of which has not vet
been proven, but which cannot be less
than a half or three-quarters cf a
mile; and as to depth, extensive de-
Velopments have failed so far in reach
ing the footwall of the vein. This NAV
seem like a fairy tale. but the fact re-
mains that the wealth of the Mercur
mine, as shown by the present work
ings, is almost beyond computation.
and that hundred years from now
this property viii still be a paying
proposition.
From the Matte to the Nimrod work
ings there are 600 feet of virgin
ground, which is all mineral-bearing.
while from the Matte shaft to the
Resolute workings. nearly mile away.
the intervening space is one grand, al
most boundless sea of ore
The Mercur is one of the greatest
gold propositions ever discovered in
the west, and there seems to be no
good reason why. with additional mill
ing facilities, it should not greatly in
crease its earnings and also its regular
monthly dividends.
George Dern of the Mercur is now at
the mine and mill for the purpose of
making shipment of cyanides and
getting the time of the employees of
the company.

GEOLOGICAL SURVEY.
Some Important Information in the
Report just Filed.

WASHINGTON, March 30.-The geo.
logical survey has reported to Secretary
Smith on the operations of the survey
during the field season of last year.
In West Virginia, important scientific
results were obtained that will have an
interesting bearing on the develop
ment of the coal resources there.
Investigations in the upper Michigan
peninsula fail to give promise that
newly outlined "Huronian" troughs will
yield valuable deposits of iron ore.
Investigation of the mineral resources
Of the Uncompahgre and Uintah reser-
vations showed deposits of hydro-car-
bon mounds of the asphalt species
covering 1880 square miles in Utah.
AT Neylin gulch, southwest of Dem
yer. gold in apparent paying quanti-
ties had been discovered in the gravels
of the ancient stream bed. 1t is proba-
bic that other ancient stream beds will
be found that can be profitably worked
The so-called tin deposits at the
southern extremity of the Wet noun
tains in Colorado were examined but no
evidence OF such ores were found.
Discussing investigations in the Alas
kan gold fields, the report says many
small veins of rather rich ore occur on
the southern side of the Silver Bow
basin about three miles northeast of
Juneau. The old lake beds there are
successfully worked for gold by the
hydraulic process. At Seward City,
fifty miles north of Juneau, there are
also veins extremely rich at some points
and they are yielding gold.
On Admiralty island there are prom
ising veins and mining there win be
commenced in the summer.
Near Sitka, especially along Silver
Bay, and in the country to the south
east there are numerous veins some
of which have yielded a little gold.
Near Dalaroff Bay on the island of
Unga, in the Shumagin archipelago,
thousand miles southwest of Sitka, the

Mrs. Sarah Walker seeks to recover

reputation for chastity and morality, not

without probable cause, swore to a COM

house resorted to for the purposes of
prostitution, and plaintiff was arrested
and subjected to the ignominy and shame
of public trial. and was held up to
the scorn and ridicule of the commun-
ity as well as put to heavy expense in
defending herself. She was declared not
guilty and restored to her liberty.
Plaintiff further alleges that he de-
