Accidents al Cedar City.

This has been great week for acci-
dents, says the Iron County Record.
Yesterday morning Charlie Dover fell
from a scaffold at the new Branch
Normal building, badly Gripping one
of his arms and otherwise injuring
him. 1t Is not yet positively known
whether his arm is broken or not.
William Taylor met with very I'M
pleasant accident last Wednesday
morning while pulling over heavy
timber which had been set in the
ground at the adobe mill. 1t being
fast In the ground he had hitched a
team to 1t and was driving them when
the timber unexpectedly gave way and
fell, striking Taylors arm and right
leg. The latter was broken near the
ankle. DIR. Stump set the limb and the
patient is said to be doing nicely
Jim Middleton, one of the Record
newsboys. was thrown from n cayuse
pony yesterday and had his arm
broken. Surgeon Schoppmann set the
limb and the boy is now dong we'll a
week or two ago large band of desert
horses were brought into town, includ-
ing number OF colts, which were
given to the small boys for riding
ponies, and now nearly every lad In
town is riding one OF these scrub ami
mails. They are the most dangerous
'varmints" Imaginable, and the only
wonder Is that more of the kids" have
not been hurt. Jim was an important
factor on the Record stan and we re-
gret his loss.

sec. when Congress is asked TO legis-
late in mining matters, that the re-
quest cmbodies our own ideas based
upon actual experience in mining in
dustry.'
Among the changes in the mining
code suggested by the committee. the
most important is that requiring u
prospeotor to pay fee of $50 per claim
within 30 days from the date of filing
his location notice. He Is also re-
quired to patent his claim within five
years during which time he must do
$500 worth of work When the patent
Issues he must pay the government 50
per acre for placer ground and $3.50
per acre for lode claims The annual
assessment Is 500 per year, with the
provision that in the year in which To-
cation is made $50 worth of work will
answer. Work equalling an assess
ment of 500 is defined to the excava-
ton of 800 cubic feet OF solid rock OF
500 cubic feet of loose rock or soil.
There are many other changes but
these are the most neutrality-suspicious.

Here also is the Rye Batch mine on the
Humboldt range which is said to have
produced Sl3000,0O0, while in the
Trinity range of mountains across the
valley, Is located the old Montezuma
silver mine that Is also credited with
a production amounting to several mil
lions. This country Is now a gold dis
trict and the scene of very active oper-
atoms. Humboldt's gypsum deposits are
said to be quite extensive. while the
white cloud copper district and the
spring wiley and American canyon
placers, all tend to strengthen the min
eral resources of that particular Sec
ton and bring 1t up to its present
standard of seeming excellence.

master and an eloquent critic. He is
immensely popular in the East.

THE MINING CONGRESS.


The International Mining Congress,
which will meet at Salt Lake City, July
6, viii have placed before It for consid-
Grafton the provisional report of the
committee appointed at the Denver
session last year, to prepare memorial
to Congress proposing changes in the
federal mining laws. This provisional
report was published in Western pa
pers last December and some of Its pro-
visions aroused n storm of protests
from mining men. There are indica-
lions that the debate upon this report
win be sharp in the committee and pos
sibly bitter in the convention itself
Those who seek to place burden upon
the prospector will be opposed by
many who believe that the right to
locate mineral claims should not be in
terfered with by surrounding 1t with
conditions which drive the poor man
out OF the business.
G. d. Dennis of Spokane Is a member
of the committee of the mining congress
which has in hand the proposed
changes I'm the law. He did not attend
the meeting Of the committee and con-
sequently had no hand in the framing
of the provisional report above mem
toned. Some time since Mr.. Dennis
sent copies Of the report to n number
of prominent mining men with the view
of obtaining their ideas regarding the
proposed changes. He expects TO go to
Salt Lake City to attend the meeting
in July and It Is his desire that he
may go backed by the publicly ex-
pressed opinion of the mining men OF
this part of the country regarding this
matter. Feeling that this could not be
gained save by n meeting at which free
and full discussion of the proposed
changes could be had Mr. Dennis will
call meeting Of the mining men OF
the city and surrounding camps in
Spokane Saturday. May 2S, at 1880 p.
m. At this meeting the report of the
Denver committee will be taken up in
detail and Its sections approved or
criticised as the meeting may see fit.
II hope that every mining man will
attend that meeting" said Mr.. Dennis
yesterday. 1T Is of vital Importance.
These changes in the mining laws sug-
gested by the committee are in some
respects radical. The interests of every
mining man are more or less affected.
| do not wish to go to Salt Lake in
July to act on this important matter
without knowing what Is the prevail
ing opinion of the mining men OF the
state. There should be an expression
Of the consensus Of views and that is
what / hope to have at the meeting
which will be called for next Satur-
day, May 2s. Definite announcement
viii be made later / hope that no

changes. One thing is certain: a
