THEY WE'RE COMRADES.
Sixth Cavalry NOncOms Remember
Corporal Mcdowell.

The Morning News is in receipt of a
of Troop K, of the Sixth Cavalry, now
at Fort Leavenwofth, Kan, in which
twelve of the non-commissioned officers of
the troop join in speaking in the highest
terms of Mr.. ]. S. Mcdowell, who was I'M
til recently a member of the troop, but
has since returned TO his home in Savan-
nah, having obtained his discharge. The
communication states that Mr.. Mcdowell
Joined the troop in Tampa, May 2S last,
being one of those who joined under the
act increasing the strength of the regular
army. Mac" as The letter says the boys
called him, was very anxious to go to
Cuba and scrap the Spaniards, but fate
willed il otherwise. Only eight troops of
the Sixth were taken to Cuba and only
fifty men with each troop. AS troop K
had left Fort Leavenworth with fifty-eight
men only the old men were taken and the
new recruits were forced to remain be-
hind in Tampa. In spite of the fact that
he was unable to go to Cuba, the letter
says, Mr.. Mcdowell did good work at
Tampa in drilling the new men, having
been promoted to corporal. Before the
departure of the regiment from Tampa,
the circle of friendship known as the
Chosen Thirteen" composed of noncom-
missioned officers of the troop, the MEM
bers of which greatly regretted leaving
him at Tampa. When the regiment landed
at Montauk Point, on its return from
Cuba Mac was there waiting for them,
and knowing what soldiers would want
who had been three months in Cuba he
had a large basket of choice food for his
friends to which they all did ample JUS
tice. None of the chosen thirteen had
died in Cuba and the circle became COM
plcte again. 1t remained so until Jan. 2,
when Mr.. Mcdowell secured his discharge,
Mr.. Mcdowell was escorted to the depot
by his friends in their own style" the
letter states, VINO parted with him sadly.
written agreement was made by the
thirteen that all the members should meet
each other again at the Southern Hotel
in St Louis, Jan. 20, 1902.
The membership of the thirteen as given
in the letter, consists of Sergeants Peter
j. Peterson and George Foure,
Corporals Sam Peterson, JOS
eph L. Bielman, Michael Casey, Henry
Garrison Albert Lucas, Jack Ward, Henry
Msostow, Harry Raynard, Charlie Smith,

Rights of Tunnel Locators

There Is somewhat Of n difference be-
tween the rights of the locator Of .
tunnel site and the locator of mining
claim who may desire to run a tunnel
to develop his location. the mouth Of
the claim. II A has located a tunnel
site. under the mining laws. subse-
quent mining locations on the line
thereof are prohibited SO long as work
Is being prosecuted with reasonable
diligence in the tunnel; consequently.
IL b locates a mining claim subsequent
to AS tunnel location, the latter u
senior in point of time. and A may
drive his tunnel through BIS claim
without his consent II, however. A
and Il are each simply locators of min
ing claims which may be near or join
each other. A has no right to pass
through BIS claim. although b may be
junior in point of time to A In other
words. the location of mining claim
does not carry with it the right to pass
through other claims subsequently 10
Gated. The consent OF the Junior 10
Gator is essential In these contro-
versies at law there is often much
which does not require the services OF
lawyer to determine what is right.
The laws are framed with a view of
justice TO all: as the Law guarantees to
the bona fide locator Of n claim the alb
solute possession OF all within its
boundary planes. IL is unreasonable to
presume that one may enter upon an
others property for any purpose with
out his consent

MINING MENTION.

Along the same ridge there are three
cones, all of which may be styled
bald headed hill For a space Of at
least sixty feet wide, a clear track
runs through the densely forested SEC
ton, on which no tree and not even
anything else but the s2arest vegeta-
ton grows. The cause of this denuda-
ton can be seen whenever a thunder
storm arises. As long as there h any
electricity in the atmosphere. the
thunder bolts play like heavenly can
noneers upon this belt which is struck
again and again in rapid succession.
The copper vein here is such a strong
conductor that il seems to concentef
all the electricity in the expenditure OF
its violence. This conducting power Of
the metal, here demonstrated by Ma
ture herself, is however also the very
reason why copper just now is in such
great demand and will be, more and
more. as the power of electricity u
more and more utilized.-Mining Re

Nothing MARKS more clearly the con-
.trast bstvesn RsDa1ticau prosperity
and Democratic sdversdty than the net
gold in the treasury Of the United
States under Clsvelaa1 and under Nc
Kiniey. That accumulation is tie mer-
curry in the business Thermometer Of
the country. 1t rises or falls with the
business temperature.
On Thursday. Sept. 2. there was re-
ported to be more sold in the treasury
Of the United States that day than on
any previous day In the financial his
tory Of the government. The net coin
and bullion amounted to 3251 SIS. .132.
including the S100. 900 900 reserved for
the redemption Of legal tender notes.
When resumption bsgan, in 1879. the
net gold of the treasury was Sl30.24s.-
457. and II never fell below the hun
dred million mark until 1888. Not
quite month a. Ds0ocracy vas then
required to bring the net amount be-
low the minimum OF safety. where It
stayed. except as the government went
into the market and sold bonds. until
after the era Of Ds0ocratic rule was
ended By q vote Of the people. Hard
iy had q Democratic president. a Dem
ocrstic house and . Democratic senate
come into power before the mercury in
the treasury department fell below
the freezing point Of 800. 900 900. BY
the beginning Of 1894 It had gone to
e65.650.175. and Jan. I. 1895. 1t was
down to 44.7O5. .sS7. It would have
been wiped out entirely II 1t had not
been for the stocks Of sold secured by
bond sales. In 1895 the amount real
lied from this source vas Sill. LET. .246.
or more than the total net gold in the
treasury either when the year began
or when 1t closed.
When the presidential campaign OF
1895 began the amount was about $780,
1000. and when the election itself
occurred It was $4,000. 900. The news
that Mckinley had been elected. and
with him a Republican house Of rep
resentatives, then went out TO the
country. and when the actual change
OF administrations came the net gold
amounted to about $50 900 900. From
that time all fear Of the endless chain
was forgotten. The increase has gone
on steadily until the maximum Of over
$3.50. .0O0. 900 has been reached.
With the contrast between Democrat
ic adversity and Republican prosperity
presented in this eoocete form. 1t is
dimcult to conceive how any man OF
ordinary business sense can fail to be
impressed with the advantage OF hav-
ing the government conducted on dis
tinctively Republican lines OF policy by
an administration which inspires imam
cial conndence.-Chicago Inter Ocean
