Our New Mining Law.


Under the provisions of our new
mining law, locators are given ninety
days in which to perfect their loca-
tions, subject to the following re-
ouirements: The discoverer of any
vein or lode shall Immediately upon
making a discovery put up at the
point of discovery monument of
rocks, and post a preliminary notice
upon it setting forth, first-The name
of the claim. Second-the name of
the locators. Third-the date of dis
covery. Fourth-the number of feet
in length and the number of feet on
each side the center of the ledge. 5
the general course of the ledge as
near as may be-
Within 80 days after the posting of
such notice, the locator must sink y
discovery shaft to depth of at least
ten feet from the lowest part of the
rim of such shaft at the surface, or
deeper if necessary to show ledge
of mineral in place. A cut, crosscut
or tunnel which cuts the ledge at a
depth of ten feet, or an open cut of
at least ten feet in length along the
lode is equivalent to discovery
shaft The boundaries must be de-
fined by marking a tree or rock in
place, or by setting post or stone
at the center and each corner of the
claim. When post is used it must
be at least four inches square, by
four feet six inches in length, set one
foot in the ground, with a mound of
stone or earth four feet in diameter
by two feet in hight around the post.
Wheu it is impossible on account OF
bed rock or rough ground to sink the
posts they may be placed in piles OF
stone, and if it is dangerous to place
the posts or monuments in the prop
err places they may be placed at the
nearest safe point, properly marked.
When stone is used instead of rock
in place, it must be exc and Is inches
long, set twe-thirds of its length in
the ground.
Within 80 days the after locating
the locator shall record his claim with
the mining district recorder and the
county recorder, by certificate con
tanning. l. The name of the claim
2. The name of the locators. 3d.
The date of the location and such de
scription with reference to natural
objects as viii identify the claim. 4
The number of feet in length each
way from the location point, and the
width on each side of the center Of

the ledge 5. The size and place o.

description of each corner, with the
marks thereon. All these things
must be set forth In the second no
tice and the notice must be recorded
This law does not affect claims locat
ed prior to March l6, 1897. In case
of the relocation of Abandoned mines
the locator must comply with this
law. This law will prevent the in
